A festive holiday it was <Called by proclamation, observes a .Writer In "the Boston Herald, but actually it represented a day which demanded more preparation than most iahy other in the year.

The turkey must be caught, killed, plucked, singed and hung up for a day before he was brought to the kitchen. Grandmother must make her famous nut bread fof- William ("he does like it so when he comes home"). "Sadie, you make the fudge--Alice, you make the molasses candy--Sue, you mike--" and so it goes.
