Go-Hawks Have Many Reasons for Being Grateful.
If nil the Oo-l lawks might be together on Thanksgiving what won
derful stories they could toll of the reasons they havo fur being thankful
till year. There ore so rrffiny pretty little legends ubout Thunkagivlng, and
alnce thi I the Sunday closest to thi loved day I will tell you an old
Indian legend uhout Onatuh, thu Spirit of the Corn, and why aho was very,
very thankful.
It all happened long, long ago in that time when the Indian grand
mother said it was not necessary to plant corn, aced or hoe thu field, fnr
the corn sprung up by Itself and the Brent mcadowa were full of aturdy
stocks waving their green banners. Then it wan that Onutah, the Spirit
of the Corn, with her dusky fa:e and Jet blai-'k hair, walked the field.
When Onutah passed, the corn, the Indian maize, sprang from the
earth. Willi her t'anio her sisters, the Spirit of the Hcjuash and the Hcan.
As they panned, squash vine and bean plant grew from the hill.
One duy bb Onutah wandered away nlone In. march of the early dew, the
Kvll One of the Karth, Iluhgwchdactgnh, pled her and ran after her. Ho
clutched her by the hair and drugged her beneath the ground to hi gloomy
cave. Thin ho sent out hi flre-breathlng mounter and they detroyed
Onutah' corn. When tho Spirits of the Squash and Hean suw the flame
monsters ruging through tho field, lerrlfiod, they flew fur away.
Poor Onutah lay weeping in the durk prison cave, grieving for her
ruined corn field a well a for he? runaway sisters. "Oh, warm, bright
nun!" Khe colled. "If I mny walk once more upon the earth never again
will I leave my corn,"
When the Unto bird heard her word they flew away swiftly to carry
thi messagu to tho Sun, n he wandered through tho blue heaven. Now,
tho Hun loved Onatah, o ho sent out many beam of light. They went
through the damp earth and found Onatah and led her back to her corn
field. Kvcr after ahe watched alone for her ulsters, who rtli not return.
If hr r field wn,thlrly, she could seek the morning dew. If tho
flamo tiiotiHU-ra burned her corn, she could search the aide for cooling
wind. Orifttali watched over her field with great tenderness and the little
bird became her loving friends and flocked to her service. They followed
ber through the long rows of corn and made war on the tiny insects that
gnawed att the roots of the corn.- - '
When harvent time came again, because Onatah wus so thankful for
her rescue from the dark cave and for all that the little birds had done
for her, she scattered the first gathered corn over the fields and oil the
birds came from everywhere around and had a real Thankgling feast.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STOIIY.
(Continued from Last Sunday.)
"lirought what and to whom, Na
poleon?" asked Vrof. Trevelyn, and
then he noticed what seemed to his
eyes an endless number of dark lit
tle faces.
"Brought all our kids 'cause
mammy says she's goin' to' die an'
an' " the tears were rolling down
the dark, troubled face. "Where's
Aunt Sallle, she's goin to' take lteer
o' all o' ns. I 'rue said she'd do it
an' she asked us t' come here an'
live if mummy died and mummy
said she thought xhc was n-dyln' an'
for me t' come on an' bring all the
kids f Aunt Sullie. An' here we
are an' where' Aunt Sallle, 'caue
we're tired?"
Miss Sallie's face was a study us

of sleep eyed colored children, the

the wall.
"Just alt down here." laid the
!oft'iuiir. "while I llnd Biy sister
ad tell her you bate arrived."
IVof. Trevelyn shook with laugh
ter h he jolnded 111 sloter, "I see
yntl life work hs been brought to
your dtKir," h began talngly.
"I'lilllp, If yon love me. drwa and

the Indian boys
around. You
may tell It to
just as it Is
what we can for them In their own
home," she concluded with much
dignity.
"Then you do not wish me to
adopt them? Only six, you know,
Sallle."
She ignored' his jesting. "Philip,
I wonder what the Oo-Hawks will
do next. Do you suppose this Is the
only family Prudence has ordered
for me?"
loiter, as Miss Sallie accompanied
her small charges home through the
deserted village street, she laughed
softly to herself as she thought
over the events of the past few
months and pondered over the fu
ture. "I wonder If all twins are as
active as our girls?" she mused.
"Guess th' Go Hawks are all in
bed," ventured Napoleon, suddenly
feeling a sense of importance due
to tha late hour.
"I am sure I hope so," responded
Miss Sallie. "I like 1est to think of
them in bed."
"I like 'em best on th' war-path,"
answered the boy. "I think we'll
have a war next summer, for th'
chief said he heard there's goin' t'
he a new tribe started an' we'll fight
'em If they try t' steal our trail In
th' woods.''
"Oh, Is your trail in the woikIk?"
nuked Miss Sallie. "It has seemed
to me that the trail of the On
Hawks was everywhere one would
lather not have it."
"I don't understand," n!ovly an
swered Napoleon, "but hue we are
at our house," and he pimlod open
the door. "Why, mummy bu t dead,
