The Spirit Of Thanksgiving - The spirit of Thanksgiving seetns to be symbolized by dining room tables stuffed tb overflowing with turkey, sweet potatoes and all . the trimmings. Families gather, tuck their napkins under their chins, offer thanks and -- dig in? On the same day, in Asian rice paddies, Berlin refugee camps, Italian caves, Korean orphanages, Israeli gettlqpients, Gaza Strip tents and Hong Kong ^gutters-- there are no such tables groaning with food--no such happy families gathered. In answer to the crying need of' refugees, orphans, War victims and starving millions throughout the world, CARE, the overseas relief agency, has launched its 1956 Food Crusade. Using farm surplus, donated, by the U.S. government, CARE, is distributing five million special food packages to the world's heedy in the name of the American people. Each package, containing 22 pounds of nourishing staples, will feed a family of four for one month. In order to carry out this ambitious and humanitarian program,' CARE needs your help! Your contribution of one dollar will deliver one 22-pound package, bearing your name, to a needy family in one of eighteen countries of Europe, Asia, the Middle East Or Latin America. Multiply that dollar by 100 and you can deliver one ton of food abroad to an orphanage, refugee camp, needy village or institution. No one is suggesting that you go without your turkey and trimmings but, if you can spare a dollar or more, you can invite an entire family to share your blessings. We recommend CARE's Food Crusade as your opportunity to put real meaning into Thanksgiving. We think you'll enjoy your own meal the more for having shared it with someone less fortunate. The place to send your contributions is: CARE, Chicago! MOURN DEAtH OF ARTHUR THELEN. NATIVE OF CITY Friends joined the family of Arthur Thelen in mourning his death.

CORN CROP This season's average loss of mechanically harvested Illinois corn may amount to 12 bushels an acre on the average, according to the state and federal departments of agriculture.
