It was instituted by the Pilgrims'who forsook the shelter of organized society, staple government, and advanced living conditions for the sake of a princi- ple. They left the rooftree of civilization; they allowed the hind of their material pix-en 33 to be turned back a thousand years; they eamejto America to .vrwtle with untamed nature for that principle. I The first Thanksgiving was celel rated by the Pilgrims who rendered thunkh to God for the bounteous crops produced in the wilderneso. Governor Bradford sent out nm to bring wild fowl in to help the feast abng. Hand- ed down from guierution to generation, it has been essentiafly a feast in grateful L'eleiirati‘ n of the harvest. a November feast at which time all grains. all frui;::, all vegetables have been safely garnered and stored. In great L‘ities Thankuiving has gone far afield from its first-handllignificance hi aust' pwi “it” ..:'e i‘e,,i()ved from first-hand contacts with nature. The ob- servanve continues, but very often its deep spiritual significance has fled after the manner of all things of the spirit. and left only the impty husk. Only on the American farm does Thanksgiving come in all its original virilâ€" ity. There it still marks the close of the summer‘s unflagging industry. There it is still the festival at the end of the harvest. PRIZES T” Brittun l Budd.

The ceremonies were carried on in the vacant lot just north of the ad- ministration building. Just before the first bottle was opened, the vil- lage officials bowed their heads in prayer, then the Work began. ive men emptied bottles, while others tapped kegs. Newspaper photograph- ers, and movie cameramen were kept busy “snapping” Mayor C-lendenin and other notables. Much speculation was raised in Zion as to whether the fish in the lake where the sewvr empties would be-‘ come "pickled." PLAY LAKE FOREST THANKSGIVING DAY (‘humpion Lake Forest Eleven Will Play Last (lame of Season Here On Thanksgiving Day The lineup of the local team will be pratcically the same as in previous games. Several well known college players will play on either side. Mickey McCabe, Paddy White, and Stewart Eddy will occupy their regu- lar positions At the meeting of the local post of the American Legion held Monday evening in the city hall, preparations were made for a dance to be given by that organization between Christ- mas and New Year. committee was appointed to put on the dance.

FORMER RESIDENT IS GIVEN BIG POSITION Mr. Frank Matthews, a former res- ident of Highland Park, has been ap- pointed financial manuger and assistâ€" ant ireasurer of the Edward Wren mmpany. a Springfield. 0.. concern. A clipping from the Springfield Daily Sun.

THIEVES LOOT CASH . DRAWER AND ESCAPE iBUILDING FUND SALE WILL NET OVER $700 Highland Park Woman's Club is One Step Nearer the Home . They are Planning to Build Success was the distinguishing char- acteristic of the building fund sale conducted by the Woman‘s Club at the Army and Navy Center last Satur- day. The immense room of the (‘enâ€" ier lent itself admirably to the long lines of sales tables which flanked each side and displayed the variou- and attractive wares of the vend‘ There was the household utilities deâ€" partment presided over by Mrs. J. Glidden, fancy goods in ita most :il- luring aspect managed by the capable Mrs. McDougal, a juvenile section under Mrs. 0. Lawrence Oleson. books sold by Mrs. Shipnes, a large assort- ment of bakery goods under the man- agement of Mrs. Show, toys of ev- ery ‘kind and color, presided over by Mrs. Bergen, and last of all, that which delights the heart of every child, a gralrbag. Mus. Phelps had charge of this important department, and, in order that it might lack noth‘ ini: of the traditional allurements of the time-honored grab-bag, litilt tots were decked out in mother goon ms- tumcs representing the most pictur- esque and unmistakable of those char- acters. There was Red Riding Hood, calmly presiding over her little grah- bag, there also was the Queen of Hearts, famous for hci' tarts. the ltaker too with a spacious pie for his grabâ€"hag, and a most convincing Lit- tle Boy Blue. There was Mary. Mary, quite contrary, always belo'ved for her headlong spirit. and, over ali. j ic- sixled the eternal Mother Goose. Ev- ery little package in the Mother Goose corner was carefully wrapped and tied. _and to every one wags attached a string, .and to every istring a little .rose. It was a pleasant pastime to lenter that neat little domicile of the 1.Mothcr Goose family,‘ drop a coin, Qand pull one of the pretty strings. 'Many thought so fori the children made a nice little ptofit of thirty 'dollars out of their qr’aint little cor- . ner. I AFFAIR IS A BIG SUCCESS It is reported that! the net profit of the entire sale will alnount to some- thing like $700 and perhaps more. The entire reports ale not yt‘. re- turned. but, at present: {no {gun i are as follows: Juvenile; section. 3150; books 5125; bakery $98.57: fancy goods $130: household utilities about $70; Loy» in tlu neulmorho ll ‘1 $41. In addition to thzsef‘ 3:: 'c»;, if: .. W. W. Wright gaVe a check for $50 to help swell the profits. , All in all, the sale was a great suc- cess. It is a long and arduous road ‘to try to accumulate sufficient funds 'in these times to construct a build- jing, but the women of the club, led (by Mrs. Cain, are going about this enterprise in the proper spirit, and one which is highly commendahle. They are in no hurry tn build. and meanwhile they are waiting tle‘velup- mt-nt.‘ in the hope that >41an of the civic and social needs of Highland ' Park will merge their various :nu-râ€" «515 imu «me single project Those in charge of the bakery goods reported that they could have sold three times the amount which they had on hand, there being a grem de- mand for [pastries of all kinds. The very few things left from this sale, consisting mestly of books and fancy goods. will be disposed of at the next meeting of the club.
