Last Thursday, 'twas a glorious sight, All crisp and brown and hot; The turkey 'graded the festal board And had the honored spot. On Friday it was there again As croquettes, served for lunch, In which tha whlto meat and the dark Were gathered In a bunch, Again It came on Saturday, A salad 'twas this time; And, though It was the same old bird, The salad tasted prime. Then, Sunday here It came onco mora, It seemed 'twas here to stay, For prominent on the menu Was "turkey consomme." But Monday closed the bird's career, We knew 'twas gone for good, For a big platter full of hash Upon the table stood. WILBUR D.

There was once a proud fat turkey that looked down upon all the rest of the turkeys and was greatly disliked because of its arrogance and conceit And when Thanksgiving time came around, the owner of the turkeys came among them, ax in hand. Whereupon all of the other turkeys were jealous of the proud fat turkey and said that at last It would get what was coming to It But the proud, fat turkey only strutted and gobbled with more arrogance than And Its owner "I guess 1 11 not kill that one. I'll send it to the turkey show and take a ribbon." Which he did.

This teaches us that conceit sometimes helps, If there Is any excuse for It. Not a Mere Festival. Thanksgiving Day, If it be properly observed, observed In the spirit of true Christian love, will be an inspiration to all. It la not a mere time of feasting.
