As for the bootjack, in these days of luxury and ready-made shoes it is as unknown as any creature of the prehistoric age. No longer does Thanksgiving bring the real mince pie, that culinary tri umph of every well-regulated house hold, with its wonderful fruity flavor, that cunningly combined the qualities of solidity and crispness, a ple that even if dangerous to health made a danger well worth facing and putting down. Compared with the bakery- built substitute of today the mince ple of those days was a vintage pie, as far above its modern rival as a vintage wine is above the grocery wine for cooking use. Its existence was a splendid testimonial to the physical traits of the men and women of the era in which it flourished. Even the plum pudding, that carnl val of richness, is disappearing from the stage. It is giving way to ice cream, that mollycoddie of digestion that invites to slow eating and delib- erate enjoyment, The Thanksgiving stage Is now set with new scenes and new characters There is the cabaret and terrapin, and football and the theater, There in the social function in place of the family festival; and In the evening hours the elaborate entertainment in the gilded ballroom, In place of the homely dunce to the strains of the fiddle and the bow and the ministrations of the merry, squeaking fiddler. Truly, the coming of this holiday and its observ. unce well measures the distance that the nation has gone from Its life and its habits In the days when Thanks giving day was young.

Hale, ed She devoted herself to the task of writing to all the governors of the different states and territories, urging upon them the propriety of a national thanksgiving and suggesting thé last Thursday in November as the day for such celebration. She continued to write these letters year after year, and was finally rewarded for her efforts by all the governors, excepting two, granting her request, However, the people's response was not enthusiastic, and during the Civil war, especially In the South, the cus tom lagged. Immediately after the battle of Get. tysburg Mrs. Hale wrote President Lincoln, inclosing a copy of Washing. ton's Thanksgiving proclamation, and suggesting that he also proclaim a day of national thanksgiving. The Pres. ident acted upon her suggestion and issued a proclamation “forthe ob- servance of Thursday, August 8 as a day of national thanksgiving, praise and prayer.” From that time on the celebration of the day lost its local and variable character and took on the fitting dig: nity of a national and stable cere mony. Lincoln's successor appointed the Iast Thursday In November as Thanksgiving day, and the date has continued unchanged ever since. Thanksgiving day is a legal holiday in every state, territory and posses sion except Utah, where it Is observed, though mot on the statute books.
