PURITANS HOT SO SIMPLE! Scores of Children
of the Poor Given
Rev. F. T. Rouse Says They Indulged
in Rich Food.
WERE LAVISH IN THEIR CLOTHES
Larue Number Attrnd the Union
Services it the First Presby
terian Church, Where Dr.
nonne Speak.
Kov. Frederick T. House of the Flrt
Congregational church, preaching a
Thanksgiving sermon at the union ser
vices at the First Presbyterian church,
said the people of America ought to be
thankful for free schools and churches
and for the growing sentiment toward
real democracy In educational life. lie
said the time must come when the peoptn
would own the public utilities and event
ually there would be a striving for the
ultimate aim an equal distribution of
material things.
Concerning 'woman suffrage, Rev. Mr.
Rouse said:
"We are thankful that ten great states
have given the ballot .to women, but we
tremble as w'e wonder what they will do
with this power. I believe they will
eradicate the double course of our mod
ern life Intemperance and Immorality."
Not So Simple.
Just to show that the modem man and
woman are not so bad and that tho Pil
grim fathers were not such simple, un
assuming folk as we are wont to believe.
Dr. Rouse read from an old New Eng
land cook b6ok a recipe for pumpkin pie,
which called for half a pound of pump
kin, spices too numerous to mention, six
teen eggs, all sorts of fruits and flavors.
Again, he called attention to the fact
that they not only ate rich foods, but
wore fine -ralmenti and he read from
descriptions of the satins and linens and
red leathers the forefathers affected.
He read the bill for a funeral and for
a -Sunday church celebration, which ln-
eluded several gallons of wine, rum and
punch and one cup of coffee.
Vgut the germ of the blessings we now
enjoy had been planted In the minds of
the Pilgrims," Dr. Rouse continued.
speaking from the text: "Whose seed la
In Itself after Its kind." "Their Instltu
uons were rather aristocratic, their
BChoola even were not democratic and
Prison las, I know, did not have the vote
and not only did not have the vote, but
were not allowed to go to school until
alter the bo ye were out."

Referring to tho slave trade Dr. Rouse
said an elder of the church thanked God
fop -the safe arrival of his slave ships:
nnd' that the president of Tale university
once sent a ship load of runi tp Africa
vim which to purchase slaves.
Rut to show that the seed had been
planted and later grew into righteousness
Dr. Rouse pointed to the arousal of the
old "New England conscience" by the
efory of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," the civil
war and later the war with. Spain, which
was, a "war of Intervention."
Dr. Rouse said there may be cause for
another Intervention to tho south of us
"nt for "dur own aggrandizement," but
to .carry on the destiny of the nation
which has taken up the "white man's
burden."
A large number of people attended the
services. Tho pastors of several churches
participated In the Thanksgiving cele
bration'. A collection was received for tho
Inmates of th Old People's home.-
Sumptuous Feeds
Many of the scores of children of the
poor who were treated to a noon-day
Thanksgiving feast at the Interdenomi
national People's Mission church. Twelfth
and Chicago street, would not have com
plained if the repast, instead of being n
regulation turkey dinner, had consisted
of pork and beans they were hungry,
and what they wanted was food In large
quantities.
More than fifty youngsters, newsies
and other street urchins, not ft few of
whom had no other place to go for a
big meal were seated at the mission din
nerand they were given what to them
was the one big "feed" of the year-
turkey, bulging with dressing, cranberry
sauce, creamy mashed potatoes, with
savory brown gravy, and pie.
Little ceremony attended the free feast.
The youthful guests, tnajiy of them with
taterred caps on their ' heads, trooped
boisterously Into the mission hall, where
long table fairly . "gobbled" under their
burden of turkey. The designing look with
which tho hungry children, particularly
the boys, regarded the steaming platters,
and the resentlessness of their attitude
warned Rev, Alexander Wagner, pastor
of the mission, that It would be well to
make the saying of grace short. He did.
but before "Amen" had been sounded,
fifty chairs scraped and fifty children
boys and girls, black and white, all of
them poor sat down to a Thanksgiving
dinner.
Although the hour for the dinner
was at 13 o'clock, arrangements had been
made to feed children whenever thoy
came In throughout the day, up to 9
o'clock In the evening. Meals were also
served free to aged persons, too poor to
pay for them. To others a charge of 95
celits was made.
There was a religious program at the
mission church in the evening. Frank
Walker, tho ccnturlan, who has lived
fifty years as a slave and as many as a
free man, sang "Slavery Days."
Besides Mr. Wagner, the committee in
charge of the Thanksgiving festivities at
the mission Included: Mrs. I. M. Forkner.
chairman; Mrs. Sadie Cannady, secretary,
and A. Nash, treasurer. Four such din
ners to children of the poor have been
given on Thanksgiving day at the mission.

Judge Whartonis
. . Able to Give Family
Cause for Thanks
Postmaster John C. Wharton madje, one
poor family In the south part of the city
truly thankful, by personally delivering a
parcel post package of live chicken, after
paying the excess postage that tho family
was unable to raise.
A country relative had mailed a live
cfclcken to the poor family and had at
tached a letter to the bird to explain the
Thanksgiving gift. The letter being first
class mall matter made the who)e pack
age take the J-cent-an-ounco rate, instead
of the low parcel post rate, and the total
tostage to be collected amounted to $1.30.
.Postmaster Wharton, discovered, the
situation and feared that the poor family
wottld be unable to pay the excessive
postage. In order to complete their
Thanksgiving dinner and save them from
keen disappointment, he paid the charges
himself and ,Jnmped Into his automobile

His arrival with the package brought
great Joy to the family, and now Judge
Wharton .feels thankful himself that he
helped - to brighten someone else's
Thanksgiving.
Thoughtful Folks
Feast Transient
Fellows in Omaha
Almost a score of young men alone In
Omaha were saved the cheerless gloom
of a "hash house" Thanksgiving dinner
by the hospitality of eight families of the
clt,y. each of whom Invited from one to
three guests to join the family a turkey
dinner.
These families adopted the Idea of
spreading the Thanksgiving .spirit beyond
their 'own households: Mr. and Mrs. J.
A.-Daltell, 1119 South Thirty-first street:
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. McCutley. 6C30 North
Twenty-ninth street: Dr. and Mrs. W. II.
Mick, 211 South Thirty-sixth street; Dr.
and Mrs. Alfred C. Mattson. 1CC0 South
Thirty-second street; Mrs, Herman T.
Zentmyer and daughters, B17 North Thir
ty-third street; Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Btur-
ge&s, 118 North Thirtieth street; Mr. and
Mrs. John W. Bobbins, 123 North Thirty-
eighth avenue; Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Star
board, 2707 Dodge street.
The Young Men Christian association
was asked by these families to send
young men who were away from homa
and without local acquaintances so that
the true Idea of turkey day might be
extended. Transient guests at the as
sociation building and other young men
who were known to lack the opportunity
of a home-like Thanksgiving were easily
found to accept all the Invitations.

Nebraska Senator Is Looking Kor-
vrnrd in Currency Conference
Embodying; Ilia Views In
New Money Lnvr.
Senator CI. St. Hitchcock, after a long,
stormy session with tho democrats of tho
United States senate, whom ho Is trying
to convert to his way of thinking on the
maner of currency reform, enjoyed
tho calm of a Thanksgiving at his home
In Omaha. He arrived from Washington
to spend the festive day at home and In
cidentally to make the acquaintance of
his latest grandchild, a llttlo daughter of
Mr. and Mrs, Henry Doorly, who was
born slnco the senator last went to Wash
ington. .
"This Is the third time I have the honor
of being called grandpa," said the sen
ator. "I don't sco but that It Is a rather
harmless experience."
Senator Hitchcock was somewhat sur
prised at the calling ot tho senate con-
foronco on the currency bill, ho said, as
he received notice to that effect Just as
he was leaving for the train to come to
Omaha.
"I think," ho continued, "that the con
ference, though, was called largely for
the purpose of expediting matters, and
doubt If they will make it very bind
lng. I don't care particularly about this
conference, as I expect to make my fight
In tho open senate."
Here Ten Unys,
Tho senator expects to remain at homo
some ten days, returning to Washington
In time, to get Into the fight when the
currency bill comes up for real consld
oration In the senate. He believes that
It Is not likely to come up for open de-
bato before December 10 or 11 at tho
earliest, as thero aro two or three othor
Issues that, by unanimous consent, havo
bcon scheduled for consideration tho first
part of tho month.
"In that case," ho said, "the currency
bill cannot come up In tho senate except
at odd hours, when someone may be
given a little time for a brlof speech on
It I am a llttlo afraid that when It
comes up at last It will lead to protracted
filibustering on tho part of. the ropub
Itcans.'
