"Just so that you may k Thanksgiving Day comes will give you this," said the he handed each boy a fi watch. Gim Me looked at hig ring. "Give me a gold one," he said. At that the ring turned to brass. "I want a gold one, like Thank You‘s." At that the ring turned to tin. "Oh, thank you," said Much, At these words the ring turned to gold. "Thank you very much!" A diamond came out i nthe middle. Thank You was too surprised to say another word. "Now, that you may have someâ€" to remember your visit by, I want to give each of you one of these," said the Spirit, as he handed each boy a little box with a silver ring in it. "Come with me and see my room," invited the Spirit. "Wrap a blanket around you and step out of the winâ€" dow into my aeropléne." The two boys got in and whirred away. They could not see where they stopped, beâ€" cause it was so dark. "Is this where you live?" asked Thank You. "One of the places," answered the Spirit, "I always live in other folks houses, and I have a room here." He lighted a candle and set it on a table . The night before Thanksgiving, the two boys went to bed in Gim Mo‘s room as usual. "What did Mr. Masâ€" ter say about the Tranksgiving Spirit, the other day?" asked Thank You. ,"I don‘t know," said Gim Me. "I wonder if we could see the Thanksgiving Spirit?" said â€" Thank You. _ But Gim Me did not answer him, because he was asleep, Thank You shut his eyes for a moment and when he opened them he saw, sitting on the footboard of the bed, the beartiest, happiest, and handsomest ‘Thanksgiving _ Spirit _ you could imagine.

More had finer clothes, and more spending money than Muc‘. Yet Much seemed very much bappier than More. He alwars wore a smils, More usually had a frown. More was always saying, "Give me this," and "Give me that," until the boys in fun called him "Give Me." Much, on the other hand, was always glad for what he had, and he never forgot his manâ€" ners. . It was "Thank you for this," and "Thank you for that," until the boys nicknamed him "Thank you." So it came about that the two were callâ€" ed "Thank You" Much and "Gim Me" More by all the boys in school, On the Friday afternoon before the Thanksgiving holiday, the boys sat resilessly in school waiting for four o‘clock to come. Mr. Master alked to them about Thanksgiving. He said something about the Trauksgivâ€" ing Spirit and dropped a hint that this Spirit was a magician. But the boys did not pay much attention to him, they were too busy planning their holiday. A THANKSGIVING STORY vou will have a happy Thanksgiving s l Day," he said, and disappeared.
