Thanksgiving Is Coming
Thanksgiving will soon be here and this
is the last issue of our little paper before
the big holiday. Thanksgiving is a time
for family reunions, when the children come
home from school, when the married chil
dren bring the new baby or the boys and
girls of riper years, to gather around the
table loaded with good things as a token of
general rejoicing.
We all look forward to this annual
gathering on Thanksgiving Day with feel
ings of joy, and our hearts are full of happi
ness at the prospect of again meeting our
loved ones. We want the Thanksgiving
dinner, which is prepared to typify our
pleasure at the reuniting of the family, to
lie just as complete and just as inviting as
jKjssible. We want everything to be of the
best, and we make our selections and prepa
rations with the greatest care.
This year we have just a little more than
usual to he thankful for. Prices for the
good things which we want for our tables
are much lower than they were a year ago.
Last year many of us were obliged to omit
some of the luxuries to which we were ac
customed before the great war, but today,
when we figure up the ex|iense of our
I hanksgiviug dinner, we find that for the
same amount of money we spent last year
we can include all the nice little tilings we
were in the habit of providing in the old
days.
Kr.ili/iiiK 111;11 conditions were a little dii
fi-rriit this year than they have hern for
nine time, we have made anaiiKeiinnts to
supply ntir < u-.tinners with the very best n(
e,i i \th111(/ for that animal meal. VVe have
done f»m 111fyink very carefully so that we
rannnt only satisfy in repaid to tpiahlv. hut

well in advance and then you will he as

think we have enough of everything to
meet the requirements of our customers,
still, if you wait until the last few days
before Thanksgiving we might be obliged to
disappoint you.

Here’s where we want to say again that
we are waiting for every customer of ours,
or for that matter anybody, to make any
suggestions they see fit regarding our store
paper.

or home interest; something about music or
books or chickens you arc interested in,

We won’t know what you want to know
unless you tell us that's sure*- and we will
