PROVED EQUAL TO OCCASION
Super'e Blunder Merely Served to
Show the Resourcefulness of
Hamilton Footlites.
Dewey, discussing the naval battle
of Skagerrak, said at a Washington
luncheon: .
"A naval officer, to succeed, must be
very quick-witted and resourceful. In
fact, he must be like Hamilton Foot
lites.
"Ham, Footlites leaned on the rail of
his sea-going yacht soliloquizing" about
love while the blue waves rolled and
neaved splendidly, eacn blue wave
being a super under a roll of canvas.
"But the waves were here and there
threadbare, and suddenly a wave
ripped and a head bobbed up in the
midst of ' the heaving sea and stared
around In bewildered fashion.
"Ham Footlites silenced the audi
ence's titters with one stern glance.
"Maa overboard I' he yelled in
stentorian tones.
Then the super, managing to draw
back his head through the hole In the
wave, disappeared. Ham Footlites
heaved a stormy sigh.
'Another victim seized by the re
lentless sea, alas,' he said."
Losing Venture.
"Do you know anything about the
milieu of this play?" asked the man
with horn-rimmed spectacles.
"If you mean the chap whp's backing
this show," answered the amiable low
brow,--fl guess he's off somewhere
wishing he could kick himself." Bir

Thanksgiving Celebration Is id
Great Event on Cotton
Plantation.
m HANK S GI VTNQ day on a cot-
Xton plantation means an open
heart and hand on the part of
tbe master ana a ruu stomacn, a
d&t of happlnesq, and, consequently,
gratitude on the part of the worker. It
means, also,, another, and, for that
little world, universal - token; an of
fering up $f thanks for the numerous
little white pods which bring profits
to the master and the winter's provi
sions and clothes to the worker. But
it also means a day of play to' alL
Hard as is the labor of the cotton
plantation hands, they do some extra
work willingly for. Thanksgiving day
for several weeks beforehand. It is a
sure sign of the approach of Thanks
giving day when one sights here and
way for a dozen black, shining, grin
pnsmm th bn. fKnm fnm fhoi;
& voeuiu aBs viv.iu vavu wuvaa
beds, and makes them scramble
Lthrdugh thicXets, Jump ditches and
wallow throrsh marshes.
Ior several nights the woods for
miles around the plantation are the
scene of night activities. , It is easy
enough to find the trail of a 'possum,
and when once located , the dogs lead
a running, howling band in the hunt.
Mr. Possum is, however, a slow -mover,
and when he hears the yelps of those
hounds and the howls of the negroes
and sees the glare of the torches, he
gets up the nearest tree and settles on
a limb.
Somehow the light fascinates him
and he usually settles on the lowest
limb. It is just what the hunters
want. Mr. Possum is noted for his
fondness tor dead meat, consequently
a 'possum that is shot is not tha most
savory of meats. Their object is to
catch1 him alive and when the tree Is
reached he is surrounded by a ring of
blfemg torches and howling blacks un
til in sheer fright he drops off, plays
dead and is bundled into a sack, to be.
hustled off in the morning to the plan
tation pen. Sometimes two or three
are caught in a night and gome of
them show fight. Once in the pen they
are fed for a couple of weeks with
food that takes away all trace of their
natural food and rounds out their
sides with good, sweet neat.
Several days before Thanksgiving
day some of the hands are taken from
the cotton fields and put to work
around the plantation buildings. This
is, with the exception- of Christmas,
perhaps the most enjoyable task of
the year, for it means the; preparation
for the feast which the plantation is
to give its hands on the day when
thanks offerings, are made.
Usually this is spread in on of
the big buildings on the plantation,
ands are set to. work at first to clear
