w England fchercj and hew, with n
hwrt orcrflewlnc with pralne and
thankfulness, the ceed honsewlfe set
bout planning for her Thanksgiving
dinner.
Felk of the new country then all took
pride In their cooking and housewifely
chores. The frugal Ged-fearing house heuse
irires, together with manj; of their
kith and kin, planned and arranged a
meal from the bounteous harvest na an
offering of pralse.
Today, New England has many quaint
relics of days gene by. Many pieces of
furniture have ceme from acresi the
pond and arc hobnobbing with the mod
ern farm and household appliances of
Still keeping up the custom and tra
ditions of early Colonial days, the New
England folk feel that Thanksgiving day
abeuld be fitly celebrated, and en this
ccaslen they plan and serve with true
hospitality a bounteous all-home-cooked
These geed folk are very partial te
candlelight, and net only does It carry
you back te early pioneer days, but the
deir, translucent light of the bayberry
candle bring visions of meadows and
ua with early fall and bushee of bay
Units ripe in ruitnmn son.
A Typical New England Dinner
Aunt Charity opened the large din din
leg room and swept and duittd It and
thin large arafuls of balsam, pine,
cedar and spruce, redolent with their
tiny odors, were used te giva a touch
rl color te the room. In a solemn row,
like sentinels, en the mantelpiece in the
dining room, steed a row of delicate
Xreen bayberry candles In their pewter
andlfsticka. The two square extension
tables wcre filled te capacity with their
ixtra leaves and then they were placed
In the center of thn room and covered
idth padding made In the days of long
go.
Next, a real old-time damask cloth,
fully eight yards long, was brought from
its resting place in the old horsehair
trunk in the garret, taken from its blue
rambrlc wrapper and laid carefully,
covering this wonderful table. Then
Grandma came in with ber smoothing
iron, just se warm, and gently pressed
out the wrinkles and made the cloth
lie perfectly smooth and flat en the
table.
Four dozen napkins, a carving cloth
and a beautifully handwerked center
piece te match the tablecloth were also
hreunht forth from the dim recesses 01
the blue eambrle.
The china and accessories were all
placed in their positions like an army
awaiting orders. Genuine horn handles
and Sheffield steel knives and forks to te
jither with coin sliver spoons were seen
In place. The cut-glass cruets spar
kling In their pristine glory were then
placed at the proper distances.
These of us who dwell in the city
most remember that the farm with its
large dairy herd, the pigs, cattle and
rhlckens, required plenty of hard work
by Its Inmates te keep things in a pros
perous condition. Then tee, this gave
the homefelk and visitors, who must
drive many miles te reach this home
stead, a wonderful appetite.

The geed old-fashioned oyster soup

was served from two immense old white
