-THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26.
Thanksgiving Day, a General
Holiday, Observed in Augusta
Government and Public Offices,
Banks, Schools, Etc., Closed
All Day—A Few of the Stores
Are Closed
CHARITY IS BESTOWED
UPON THE CITY’S POOR
It is the Day of Turkey's Ter
ror, Here As Well As in
Europe-An Appropriate
Thanksgiving Story.
Let us be thankful!
Augusta is observing Thanksgiving
Day according to custom. All govern
ment offices, banks and schools are
closed for the day, and many of the
business houses are closed, for a part
of the day if not all. It is a national
holiday.
Services are being held in the
churches; Augusta is giving thanks to
God. And this is the true signifi
cance of the day.
Many local sportsmen arc taking
advantage of the holiday and are out
in the near-by woods arid fields in
search of the elusive rabbit and the
lightsome quail.
Another Celebration.
Another celebration of the day is the
battle on the gridiron, the thud of the
pigskin against the padded chests of
young college chaps. Augusta’s ama
teur team, that of the Richmond
Academy, and by the way one of the
strongest prep school teams in the
state, is in Charleston today playing
Porter Military Academy. Local en
thusiasts of the sport this evening are
awaiting the news of the score with
intense interest.
The day in -Augusta is being cele
brated in various ways. In the real
homes the natural Thanksgiving spirit
is promoting loving thoughts and
deeds for reinforcing the “tie that
binds;” hut in the “hand-made”
homes, loving thoughts for the mean
ing of the day are even, perhaps, more
necessary.
Augusta this year, more than ever,
is convinced that the war situation
means the desmemberment of Tur
key, for the war upon the Turk was
carried on here vigorously today. It
is the season when the turkey is the
dish of the day, and any household
that has been successful in harpoon
ing the feathered emblem of Thanks
giving and good cheer is to be con
gratulated. It is the day of Turkey’s
terror.
Remembering the Poor.
The poor and unfortunate here are
not forgotten and as far as possible
cheer is being carried into their
homes. A great work in the way of
charity is being (\£>ne through the
King’s Daughters and other societies.
In all of the schools the • children
are taught to think of others on this
day, and it has been the custom for
many years here to have the children
bring contributions of food, money or
clothing, which- are distributed among
the poor on Thanksgiving Day. There
are some 60) girls and boys of the
public schools of Augusta who again
this year helped the needy ones of the
city and the lesson of giving, one of
the most valuable they learn in school,
has brought to them today a joy
which could come in no other way.
A Thanksgiving Story.
The following little story, befitting
the day, is taken from an exchange:
“There was once a mother who car
ried her little girl to a party, but the
child seemed shy and sat quietly
against the wall when all the other
children were having a fine time.
Thinking of all the trouble she had
taken to bring little Mary to the par
ty. the exasperated mother walked
briskly toward the unhappy little
mite of humanity, and shaking her
violently by the shoulders, exclaimed:
'l’ve brought you five miles to this
here party—and you’ve just got to
enjoy yourself.’
“Thanksgiving Day is a sad time for
the turkey; but, then, w'hen the pres
ident of the United States has issued
a proclamation, commanding that
people give thanks —why it’s natural
ly up to them to be thankful. And,
if they don’t really feel thankful,
they’ve just got to get thankful. Ol
course, there is truly always some
thing to be thankful for; so it’s a
sort of Easter egg hunt to find the
happiness. And everybody is so
afraid that everybody else will forget
to be thankful, that they get busy
giving them something to be thankful
about. - - . ™
“Therefore, ‘Oh-Be-Joyful Every
body* is the proper Thanksgiving
spirit of every American citifcen to
day and a very goodly mixture of sen
timent and sense permeates the day,
just as the raisins are scattered
throughout the fruit cake.”
MR. ROBERT G. PARKS IS
HOME FOR THANKSGIVING
Mr Robert G. Parks, traveling
freight agent of the Hlg Four system,
with headquarters in Atlanta, Is
spending Thanksgiving with his fam
ily in Augusta. Mr. Parks has made
good in the railroad world and is one
of the most enterprisihg railroad men
In this section of the country.
Mr. Parks has hundreds of friends
in Augusta, who always extend him a
warm welcome.

GEORGIA’S HUNTING
SEASON A WEEK OEO
•
Began Last Friday, 20th, But
Sounds of Dog and Gun Heard
Today First Time For Fair.
Last Friday was the opening day
of the hunting season in Georgia and
many of. the local hunters who are
fond of the sport had planned to take
advantage of the first opportunity that
came, but the blizzard from the north
west and decided drop in the tem
perature made it unpleasant to go in
search of game, and only a few braved
the elements on the first day.
According to the Georgia game laws,
as amended, it is lawful lor licensed
hunters to kill certain kinds of game
from November 20 to March 1.
The law requires, however, that no
person shall kill more than 25 quail
or doves in any one day, nor more
than three wild turkey gobblers In any
one season. Wild turkey hens may
not be killed at all until December 1,
1016.
Further requirements of the law are
that resident hunters of the state must
secure state licenses at a cost of $3
to hunt anywhere In the state, or
county licenses to hunt in one par
ticular county. Non-residents of the
state must pay a license of sls. All
licenses terminate at the close of the
season during which they are issued.
Licenses for all classes cf hunters
may be secured upon the payment of
the necessary feeß Rt the office of
County Game Warden Lanier, where
lice»ses are kept for the convenience
of the public.
The state game warden, lion. Ohas,
L. Davis, "espectfully requests the co
operation of all good citizens in the
enforcement of the law, and when this
is done everybody will be benefited.
The law should be changed for kill
ing squirrels, as in south Georgia
many squirrels are killed while they
are raising their young. The law for
merly protected Squirrels, but the citi
zens of north Georgia asked that it
he amended so that squirrels could be
killed earlier in the season in order
to prevent depredations on the corn
crops, and this was done.
