Kitty’s First Thanksgiving
By IDA SHEPLER.
Kitty Blair lived In one of the states
Where Thanksgiving dawns upon cold
days, and often the roads at this time
glisten with snow. But Thanksgiving
■was not kept in Kitty's home. Her
father was an honest man, but very
■trict and stern, and he said that he
gave thanks every hour, not Just one
day In the year.
He did not believe In very much
pleasure for young people. The neigh
bors said: “Just wait until that young
•sf child of his, Kitty, grows up and
•ee if she doesn’t set her will against
her father's will in these matters. Khe
bas such a determined way with her.”
The neighbors were right. When
Kitty was nearly 14 she made her first
attempt to set aside her father's will.
At school there was one boy named
Johnny Martin that Kitty thought
very nice. He was her brother barn's
chum. Johnny told Kitty that his
mamma had brought him the finest
new sleigh, and that his aunt across
tbs river was going to glvs a party for
the young folks the night before
Thanksgiving, “and 1 am going to taka
Vou and Mam to Ihe party In my new
sleigh, Johnny said.

Kitty shook her head, and said: “No,
indeed, you won't Johnny Martin, be
cause papa would never, never let us
go. You will play games and maybe
dance a little, and that wpuld never
do for us."
But Kitty could not help thinking
about the party, and at last her desire
merged Into a resolve to go. “And
you are going with me," she said
stoutly to her brother Ram, two years
older than herself. “Yes, you are. and
don’t say no! It's Just awful for us
to have no fun at all. We will go to
Nellie Brown's to spend the evening.
We haven't been at the Browns for
so long. Surely papa will not refuse
that request, beenuse he thinks the
Browns ever so nice. They live nearly
across the river from Johnny's aunt,
and they are going over In the boat to
the party, so Nellie told me."
“But that will bo the same as tell
ing a lie, for we will not spend the
evening with tho Browns," weakly
protested Sam.
“Yes. we will—we will spend It with
them st the party. I expect to tell
papa where we have been when I get
home again. 1 won't care thon for
the scolding, for I will have enjoyed
the party."

striking twelve before Ram, fearing
his father's stern displeasure, could
coax Kitty to go home. “The Browns
arc readv to go,” he urged.
Johnny Martin wanted to take Sam
and Kitty heme In his sleigh, and
while they debated over this offer, Will
Brown and hit; sisters, thinking Ram
and Kitty not coming with them, went
on toward the river.
But Ram wanted to see Will about
something that night, and said: “lil
hurry on to overtake our crowd, and
you two go on In tho sleigh around by
the bridge, Hnd drive back along the
river road on the other side to meet
me. I've Just got to see Bill again
to-night.” Ro Sam hurried on to the
river.
When he reached the mooring place,
the Browns were nearly across the riv
er In thrlr boat, and Ram would not
call to them, but looked for another
boat. There was none In sight but an
old dugout, which is simply half a por
tion of a log, flattened on the bottom
and scooped out like a trough. One
end of thia dugout was Ailed with Ice,

The night was not bright enough to
see objects plainly, but Nellie was
very sure that she saw Kitty sitting
behind Ram in the dugout.
“Oh, Will!” she cried out In alarm.'
"Row back! That dugout will roil
over with them!”
Will rowed back with all the speed
possible, but before he came In clear
sight of tho dugout It struck a cake
of Ice fairly, and one end flying up in
the air, tumbled Sam backward, hts
head striking the ice in the boat before
he rolled out of it into the river.
He was clinging to the dugout.

and the shook from the cold plunge,
and the young people ibore him to their .
home unconscious.
Johnny and Kitty, almost flying
along the river road, wondered why
they did not meet Sam. They pulled
out of the road to let a galloping
horse go by. Its rider, an older son
of the Browns, was going for the doc
tor for Ram, and to tell Klder Blair
that Kitty was In the river. He did
not recognize Johnny or Kitty, but
called back: "Ram Blair's boat turned
over!”
Then Kitty went almost wild with
grief and remorse.
She dared not go home Mr fear of
what her father would say. Johnny
could do nothing better than take
har to his mother, his own refuge
when in trouble, and for houra the

Blair that Kitty is with us.”
As Johnny went driving out of the
gate, a neighbor passed, and called to
him: “That’s dreadful about Kitty
Blair, Isn't it?”
"Sam, you mean,” corrected Johnny.
"No, Kitty. Sam will be all right in
an hour or so more the doctor says.
It is for Kitty that Klder Blair grieves
as never man grieved for daughter be
fore, surely.”
Over his son Blder Blair bent, lis
tening to him mutter for Kitty to
hurry! hurry! As In a daze, he saw
Kitty push between himself and the
bed, b.end over- and kiss her brother,
then turning, throw herself In his arms,
crying, "Forgive • me, forgive me,
papa, and never, never again will I de
ceive you!"
Folding Kitty In his arms, those
near saw a look of glory spread over
the stern face, and heard him utter:
“Dear Lord, we all come short In Thy
sight. Forgive me, and accept my
thanks for this Blessed Thanksgiving
Dawn, which I will ever keep In mem
ory of Thy mercy to me.”

Roosevelt made an interesting parade
from Fordham to the New York
Zoological Park.
These animals, which arrived recent
ly on the steamship Minneapolis, came
to this country consigned to William
Bills, and are intended as a gift from
the African King to President Roose
velt. It was at first Intended to ship
them direct to Washington, but this
plan was changed and the collection
is now safely housed under the care of
the Zoological Society In Bronx Park,
where It will remain until further or
ders, and perhaps mav eventually form
part of the regular collection.
At the head of the profession was
Raleb Bln Raleb, an attendant, who
came to this country with the ani
mals. In his charge were the two
Galada baboons, natives of Abyssinia,
their fierce looking faces, with manes
resembling those of lions, causing the
boys who followed to give the animals
plenty of room. These baboons are
considered very rare In this country
and are now the only ones of their
kind In the Zoological Park.

closely following tho strangely clod

which Is a particularly fine specimen
of Its kind, no others being on ex
hibition In this country. The zebra,
like the other animals of the collec

President Roosevelt sees fit to other
wise dispose It. It differs from the
others on exhibition there, In that Its
