THE TURKEY GOBBLER
is rare. His irritable “gobble, gobble, gob-
ble” arouses fright in the hearts of little
children, but is music in the ears of the
more sophisticated who envision him trus­
sed up in a roaster and stewing in his own
sweet juice.

with American history from the beginning,

the Pilgrim fathers in November, 1621, in
which the friendly Indians participated,
wild turkey was the chief delicacy. The
wild turkey was once plentiful, but only
exists now in a few sections of the coun­
try. No one wants to see the day when the
turkey has disappeared from the land anc
