THESE ORPHANS TO ENJOY A
TURKEYLESS THANKSGIVING
"Mamma Woolsey!" trilled a
small voice from the doorway of
the Woolsey Children's home.
"There's a man here wants to sec
jou, Mamma Woolsey—a funny
man. God has painted his hair
red."
Woolsey home Is a nirnl ramb
ling old house that stands atop a
lull in the path of wind and raiu
out on 54th and Sheridan streets.
Its curtainless windows stare des
olately. It is a bleak, cheerless
looking place at thin season of
the year.
But inside Woolsey home Is the
utmost happiness. Good cheer
and love reign in Woolsey home,
and "Mamma Woolsey" is its
queen. Besides "Mamma Wool
sey 1' there is "Aunt Bessie," who
Is princess of thiß royal house
hold, and 16 loyal subjects.
It was one of these who an
nounced a visitor whose hair
"God had painted red."
"Mamma Woolsejr" dropped the
pan from which she was feeding
the great band of ducks that ar«
penned at the back of the Wool*
srj royal palac«, and hastened to
the house. She is a fine quaint old
lady, itii hair that Is just begin
ning to turn gray and bine eyes
and dear old wrinkles. She wore
a blue "Mother Mubbard" and
white apron.
As she came through the door
SCHRANK PLEADS GUILTY

consciously. The visitor's wel
come was so warm, the atmos
phere so congenial, that he for
got the bleakness of the house
standing alone on the hill and
ondeVed silently what Woolsey
home would be with "Mamma
Woolsey" gone.
"A line band of ducks for your
Thanksgiving dinner," comment
ed the visitor.
And then and there he became
the "observed of all observers"
by some dozen pairs of young
eyes, blue and black and brown,
that had somehow gotten Into tne
room and were Beated in an im
posing row on the long couch. He
had blundered; that was . quite
apparent.
He knows now that every one
of those ducks has a name of Its
own and is in no more danger
of being eaten than a human be
ing. For Woolsey home subjects
are every one of them vegetarians
and a healthier, chubbier, hap
pier lot of youngsters never liv
ed.
Thanksgiving dinner at Wool
sey home is to be entirely vege
table, bananas and oranges and
potatoes and <rnnlw»rrles taking

itor had erroneously presumed,
