where on earth did the custom
late? People from out of town
visit New York on Thanksgiving
look In astonishment at the ragaas
parading the streets and say,
it a strange custom. We don't

Thanksgiving Ragamuffin is New
all through.
lere did the custom originate?
le who like to dig these things
ave tried to trace the matter back

the carnival is a survival of the
