"This item is about our seeing the famous castle of '

william Randolph Hearst at San Simeon. No, we didn’t go in.- We thought Mr. Hearst might be out in the middle of the road to flag us down with an old shirt or something, but I guess he forgot ,it. We saw the castle from the . road anyway. Tt sits back up in the hills, * probably five or six miles’ from the San Simeon highway. You don’t see it very well, of course, but seeing it at all is what thrilled me, because I had always thought it was hidden from the Svat. Even from five miles, it looks mighty big. And then down in the tiny village of San Simeon, right on the seacoast, there are two big telescopes on Pedestals outside the grocery. A sign says: “See the Castle—Ten Cents.” So you put a dime in the slot and stand there in the sun with one eye squinted, and become a 10-cent Peeping Tom upon the fabulous Hearst in his castle five miles away. The telescopes, incidentally, are terrible. I don’t see why Mr. Hearst doesn’t buy the grocery a couple of new ones, the better for us tourists to see him with. ” # ”

u oe MORAL UPROAR of last week over Mr. ! Roosevelt's early Thanksgiving moves me to bring up the subject again—this time to settle, once and for all, the status of the turkey. Contrary to general belief, neither the Pilgrims nor the Republicans had anything to do with putting the turkey on the Thanksgiving bill of fare. It was the work of Sarah Josepha Hale, a 39-year-old widow with five small children to support. As early as 1826, almost 40 years before Lincoln got around to it, Mrs. Hale had a notion that Thanksgiving ought to be celebrated as a pational holiday. sme “We have too few holidays,” she said, thus anticipating Mr. Roosevelt by more than a

: i Nn years. ; The very next year, in 1827, Mrs. Hale elaborated | her idea, got down to business, and brought the ‘= turkey to the table. That was the year ‘she published “Northwood,” a remarkable novel not only because it was the first to discuss slavery, but because it was the first to describe an orthodox Thanksgiving dinner “set forth in the parlor, béing the best room and ornamented with the best furniture” . . . “The roasted turkey,” she said, “took precedence "sending “forth the rich odor of ‘its savory stuffing.” =. And . from that day to this, Mrs. Hale’s philosophy has ruled the roost with the result that this year America raised 32 million turkeys—more than epough to celebrate two Thanksgivings.

She Had the Right Idea

Eight years later when she was editor of the Boston Ladies’ Magazine, Mrs. Hale’s attitude toward “periodical seasons of rejoicing” became even moré significantly "social. That was the year she said . “They bring out and together, as it were, the best sympathies in our nature.” Thus proving, if further proof “is. mecessary, that right from the start Mrs. Hale had thc proper idea about Thanksgiving—that

The Last Lough

The Yuma Indians " olden times cremated their dead. They built a brush fire, put the body on top and then, while it burned, friends tossed gifts on the fire and everybody danced around and a hot time was had by all, including the dear departed. All this was stopped by law many years ago, and Indians must now have their dead officially dead with a certificate, and avail themselves of the formal services of a mortician. But a couple of years ago in Phoenix I've just heard about it) there was an old Indian woman who wanted to be buried the .old way. She made all ar=rangements before she died. So after hér death the body was taken to an undertaking parlor, all according to law, and put in a casket. And then the undertaker had to haul it out to a big

bonfire, and heave casket and all onto the pyre. ny

In 1846 when she was 58 years old and editor of 3 Godey’s Lady's magazine, Mrs. ‘Hale began a definite]

and very determined campaign to last 17 years for the nationalization of Thanksgiving. Year after year she importuned the ‘Governors to join in establishing

No Rest for Her

By this time Mrs. Hale was 75 years old—old enough, you'd think, to retire and rest on her laurels. But she had other work to do. The fact of the matter was that she hadn't finished her Thanksgiving bill of fare. For the next 15 years, Mrs. Hale used the columns of her paper (still Godey’s Lady’s Magazine) to tell’the women of America what to serve with the Thanksgiving turkey. And among other things, she recommended “Soodje,”” a fancy fish course; “Lafayette ducks with snow balls,” made of boiled rice, raisins, and coffee. A sugar; and “ham baked in maple syrup.” Before baking, the ham was soaked in cider (three weeks) and stuffed with sweet potatoes. Of pumpkin pie, Mrs. Hale said it was “an in--dispensable part of a good Thanksgiving dinner.” ‘She didn’t say a word, though, about putting whipped cream on top. Mrs. Hale died in 1879 when she was 91 years old. She ran Godey’s Lady’s Magazine almost to the day of her death. Besides putting turkey on the Thanksgiving hill of fare, she also found time to think up a way of raising funds to build the Bunker Hill Monument. She was a grand old lady and: it would have tickled her no end to know that in 1939 America found time to celebrate two Thanksgivings with enough turkeys to give every man, woman and child at least one and a half pounds of meat—for each Thenkgivipe, mind you. :

By Raymond Clapper that’s the first: guestion asked whenever reader and

writer meet face to face. So these impressions go into the copy, directly or indirectly.

No writer can be completely objective. There is no} :

reason why he should be. The attempt to be so results .in some curious newspaper copy, often causing the real substance to be killed out of a dispatch as a sacrifice to a kind of superficial factualness. Some time ago a reporter, obliged to write “factual” copy, was handling a Supreme Court decision. He first wrote that the “Supreme Court had rebuked Secretary of Agriculture Wallace.” Then he decided that was a

bit of interpretation which was forbidden under the

rules of his office. Yet he knew that was the import of the decision. So he consulted a more ingenious colleague who changed the sentence to read: “The Supreme Court’s’ decision was generally regarded as a rebuke to Secretary Wallace.” By inserting the phrase “generally regarded” the rule of factual reporting was technically complied with. #n »

THERE Lahr usually keeps his constitutional melancholy to himself; a man. like George Jessel flings his forth to the world. Jessel is typical of a breed—the sentiment-drippers, whose ranks include Eddie Cantor and Al Jolson. Jessel can weep bitterly at the drop of a baby bootie. Sitting with him one day recently, we asked him if he had any phobias. Certainly! Jessel has everything. “My phobia,” he said, “is bath~ tubs.” - This seemed a startling admission. “I get sad and depressed in bathtubs. I have to get out in a hurry or Ill start crying. And when I happen by an old-fashioned drug store, with . those colored globes in the windows, it makes my cry.” Jessel’s crying is for the good old days. He mourns Little Old New York and, in memoriam, he

celebrated the gaslight-and-spit-

toon -era with his show at. the World’s Fair. It is no exaggeration that Jessel and Jimmy Walker have a pact under which the first to die will have his eulogy delivered by the other. “I've delivered more than 100 funeral orations,” Jessel says, and there's actual pride in the saying of it. “I've delivered more afterdinner speeches than any man alive” Will Rogers said of Georgie: “Everytime Jessel sees half a grapefruit, he automatically rises and says, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, we have with us this evening. .. .” : 2” 2 8 EVERAL months ago, while all

. Broadway and a good portion

of the United States knew that Jessel’s soul was in agony over his lost wife, Norma Talmadge, he appeared on the bill at Loew's - State. During his act he sang one of his own songs, “Stop Kick=ing My Heart Around.” The emotional tension was so great ‘that he cracked then and there, and had to be led weeping from the stage. = Everyone in the house knew, of course, that he had been asking Norma to quit kicking his heart around. He wrote one of the first S0called - torch * songs,” which “was - called, “Oh, How I Laugh When I Think of How I Cried About You.” A torch song, by his own definition, is the “violent lament of a person who has lost a great, love.” Before thelr’ niafriatie: he ‘gave Miss Talmadge a ring, constructed of diamonds and rubies. It was set in the shape of a tree and approximateiy the size of a tomato omelette. Jessel loves to tell about his library and his traffic. with the literary great. (“I once lived with Frank Harris, I have all his books inscribed -to me.”) His library is made up chiefly of religious’ books. He’s a life member of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Society. The best book ever written, he says, is George Moore's “The Brook Kerith,” and he owns a first edition. Fifteen years ago he was introduced to Theodore Dreiser. “I * immediately - began - talking about. episodes from “Sister Car-

rie” and “The Genius,” he ree . calls, “I was trying to make an impression’ on him ‘by showing him I really followed his work, When I finished talking Dreiser did my telephoning-to-mother routine word for word.” Jessel was at one time on the boards of 78 charitable institue tions. He doesn’t relish the pops ular notion that he’s an East Side boy. He was born uptown, in what now is Hatlem, and he'll tell you that his great-grande father’s brother was Lord High Chief Justice of England under Victoria. ’ : 2 8 = E doesn’t, in fact, consider himself to be a comedian. “I'm a showman,” he says. ‘I'm a song writer, a producer, a dra matist. You might say I'm a comedian only by necessity. Why my greatest success was a grim tragedy, ‘The Jazz Singer.” He is finishing his autobiograephy, called “25 Cents to 2 O'Clock.” It will have many a great name ‘in it, for Jessel has known them all, from diaper days with Cantor and Winchell in the Gus Edwards stable to the year of the Future ama. Jessel is now 40, and has been in show business for almost 32 years. During Jimmy Walker's “reign he was ex-officio for the City of New York, and at one time it appeared that. he would ‘abandon the stage for polls : tics. They weré grooming him in Brooklyn for the State Legisla~ ture. He {is a baseball fan, but his athletic education is full of peculiar gaps. He has never seen a football game, a hockey game, a polo game or a professional tennis match. He has never been on skates or on a bicycle, and he couldn’t swim until he was past 20. But he was once bat boy for , the Giants and he sang in a club"house trio that included Christy Mathewson and Larry Doyle. Later he played on a team that had Will Rogers at first and Cantor at short. : He smokes 15 cigars a day—par for comedians—and he loves to play the horses. That's also par,

So for the record, put me down as an independent, enjoying a number of likes and dislikes, some of which, I hope, are justified, and some of which no doubt are cockeyed, and all subject to change for real or fancied reasons.
