South Bethlehem, Pa., Nov. 24. —
James McCandless and Hugh) Miller,
the University of Pennsylvania students
injured in the grade crossing auto acci

there is a road going under the tracks,
and another which Is guarded. They
crossed at a point which is practically
never used. It crosses 011 a siding.

these things this day—but remember—■
the Day becomes less and less if you let
the table grow fatter and fatter each
year. To let the dinner dominate the
day brings the wonder of this magnifi
cent festival to an everv-day level.
Make it, mothers, a day full of riches
to the family and of enjoyment and
power to the community.
To carry out the original spirit of
the day the dinner should be of harvest
foods, with table and rooms decorated
with sheaves of wheat, autumn leaves
and flowers, vegetables and fruits. A
real harvest home festival.
Has the turkey a rivalf Ah, no. Tt
is too distinctively an American bird
to sutler by sharing its place now and
then with some less gorgeous fowl. Al
ways we long for it on Christmas and
Thanksgiving and when its price soars
gently up the ladder costs we send a
heartfelt, regretful sigh after. When
perchance a family really cares more
for the moister flesh of wild duck or
the pleasant zest of a tender ham
baked to the last stage of perfection
the fact is mentioned with apology. It
seems little short of a. lack of patriot
ism to like anything else better than
turkey.
But if you must through circum
stances, or strange trick of appetite,

Cranberry sauce and celery—by tlx
way this takes us back to early Colonia
I days again. Then there was not sucl
] wealth of food. The cranberry gre«
wild in the marshes and was almost th<
I only berry to be had and naturally
! found its way to the table but. not ii
I such a rich sauce as we have it made
| into.
The wild fowls that furnish meat foi
j the first settlers were, however, fat anil
] plump and far better than the average
| market turkey.
As for pies and puddings this is thr
j height of their season, the long list ol
J favorites is well known to housekeepers
! who select from it to suit the size of
their families and their tastes. But
there must be pumpkin pie on the tabl*
for it is the most characteristic ilisl
of Thanksgiving Day, next to turkey
Even mince pie gives precedence to tin
j. pumpkin. »
The plum pudding on English suef
pudding is the last straw of the
.dinner; with its rich foamy sauce none
i can resist it. Fortunately it will b«
! even better by Christmas, for it grow?
!'richer the longer it, is kept.
This menu is one that has been ap
j proved for a long time and you can
| vary it, to suit you:
Hoast turkey, giblet sauce, cran
1 berry jelly, oyster pic, chow chow
j olives, celery, browned parsnips
j creamed potatoes, squash, cold slaw
! sweet, pickles, southern biscuits, honev,
| pies, cheese, ice cream, fruit, cake, cof-
I fee, crullers, nuts, cider, candies.
