STOLE OUR THANKSGIVING
TURKEY?
In the refrigerator at tho White
House Hotel; lay a line young turkey
ready for the Thanksgiving feast. The
family from the baby to tho grand-
lather had taken occasional peeps at
the turkey throuchout the day and had
gone to bed talking about the feast to
morrow; but alas! a "thief in the
night" stole the turkey and consterna
tion reigned at the White House.
"Dad" Mansfield came to the rescue
and presented a fine turkey Not many
minutes were lost in preparing the
young gobbler for the oven and in
spite of the fact of losing our first tur-
key we had a Thanksgiving dinner.
The turkey doubly more precious to
us because of the loss tasted much
better than any we had over eaten
while the other dishes spiced with
merrjment caused by the accident
made this feast the greatest In our
remembrance.
The following partook of tho feast:
Mrs. Brown Mr. and Mrs. Joe Tack
Misses Shoemaker of Wichita Louise
Boyle of Woodward Dunkle Wright
Messrs. Folsom Tack Sohmidt Hulse
Munsell Mansfield Steele Gardner
Graham and C E. Tackett and wife.
