Dear Boys and Girls:

.Is there anyone who doesn't
know what next Thursday is?
'1 thougtht not.
Let's talk turkey
.About Thanksgiving Day—.
A day to feast,
- A day to pray,
To thank God we live
In the free U.S.A.
•
* _* *
Of course Thanksgiving is a
day for fun, too. Here is a just-
for-fun Thanksgiving story . . .
"This year it's going to be
different," Tom Turkey thought,
as he strutted around the barn-
yard. "I get awfully tired of
being 'guest of honor' at
Thanksgiving dinner year after
year. This time, I'm going to
be the host. I'm going to give
a• Thanksgiving' dinner and all
my friends on the farm will
help me. Maybe I'll even invite
the farmer and his family to be
my guests."
. He perched on a tree stump
and began to _ plan- his party.
"Let's see . . . we'll start off
with chopped liver; everybody
likes chopped liver. Then I'll
need lots of vegetables, and a
light puffy kugel and . . ." he
busied himself making lists and
looking up recipes.
Soon Mr. Turkey was ready to
go "shopping." First, he visited
the chicken coops and told all
the hens about his plan. "That
sounds wonderful," They clucked.
"What can we do to help?"
"Well, first I'll need lots of
eggs for the kugel. I think peo-
ple get tired of stuffing; don't
you?". I
"Lots of eggs, freshly-laid,"
agreed the hens.
"Then for the first course
Mr. Turkey coughed apologetic-
ally. "Do you think I could get
some chicken livers?"
The hens looked at each other
sadly. "Yes,"- said one. "We
have some cousins going to
a r k e t Thanksgiving week.
We'll- see that some nice plump
livers are saved for you."
Mr. Turkey was pleased with
This first stop. He went on to
the vegetable garden: Here, he
' ordered all kinds of, fresh vege-
tables for his salad—crisp let-
tuce and cucumbers and rad-
ishes, rosy_ tomatoes, sturdy cel-
ery stalksand sweet potatoes,
too.
- Then he came to the orchard.
"GiiOd afternoon," he said to
the apple trees. Their limbs
were heavy with shiny red fall
,apples. He explained his plans
for Thanksgiving. "May I have
a supply of your fruit for a
delicious • strudel?" he asked.
The apple trees were happy to
participate in Tom Turkey's
dinner.
Finally; Mr. Turkey went to

the farmhouse to invite the
farmer and his family to
Thanksgiving Day ; dinner. "I
know you are thankful for such
a good harvest this year," said
the • turkey. "Let's celebrate to-
gether." •
The farmer thought it was an
excellent plan. But his wife
asked "What about the main
course, Mr. Turkey? What are
we to haye?"
Tom Turkey's face grew sad.
"I thought about everything but
that," he admitted, "and we
must have a main course or it
would not be a Thanksgiving
Day feast."
He walked into the bright
kitchen. `Get out your roaster,
Mrs. Farmer," said Tom Tur-
key. • "I guess I'll have to be the
`guest of honor' after all.".
* * *
How many things can you
think of to be thankful for, boys
and girls; when you gather at
your own Thanksgiving Day
dinner? Let's make a list.
For, our plentiful food.
For our happy homes.
For our parents' love.
For our free education.
And perhaps most of all, for
our free life in America.
Your friend, MIRIAM.
