Oid you buy some paint
#unrecognized text#
I also bought a ribbon.
Now we just have to buy some nails.
You've really helped us by coming along.
Don't mention it.
Were preparing for the Thanksgiving dinner.
I'm excited already1
But, Sallie, why are you the only one who has to shop?
Aren't there many other committee members?
Everyone's preparing for the play and the parade.
I'm the only one who didn't come up with any suggestions.
I don't have any imagination.
Oh no! They're not open today.
Do we have to go to the next town just to buy some nails?
I guess there's no choice.
Le is go.
Ohrwhat'5 this?

What's going on?
It looks like a choir.
They're orphans
Everyone, these are orphans from St George Orphanage.
Please give a blessing from God to these poor children
Such) poor children. They're so young.
Thank you very much.
What poor children.
Mama, I want to give them something too.
AH right.
This little boy will donate something too.
What a horrible display
Don't give up. Live life to the fullest
Yes. Thank you very much
give this to you.
Thanks
To be honest, I was very upset.
Thank you for the handkerchief. It was very useful.
Very useful!
Oh my!
Emily'
Oh my! Are you all right?
It's unforgivable
Its absolutely unforgivable!
Orphans," she said
I feel/so sorry for them. I cant look
A blessing from God

I just remembered an errand I have to do. Ill see you at the dormitory.
Please give a blessing from God to these children.
#unrecognized text#

What's wrong, Sadie?
We still have shopping to do.
Judy already went back
That's right I know!
What is it?

Invite these orphans?
#unrecognized text#
Well share our happiness with these orphans who haven't receityedj any blessings from 66d.
II invite them to the Thanksgiving dinner and! collect donations.
I know.
Lets pass the donation box around!
This is what f hanksgivincj is all about*
Were back
Good work
I'm sorry I ran off like that
Did you buy the nails?
More importantly
That's right
What happened?
Did something good happen?
Hey, listen.
I just had a great idea!
Will we have an exam after Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving Oay takes place during the fourth week of November.
I thought so.
So what's the great idea?
At the Thanksgiving dinner, the whole campus is open to the public
and people from the city also participate in the festivities
#unrecognized text#
But that's not all
You saw the orphans in the city earlier, right?
#unrecognized text#
ill invite those children too!
Invite the orphans?
What do you think? Isn't that a great idea?
So, it looks like they're from St. George Orphanage, and III discuss their invitation with them
I wont just be doing shopping anymore.
They said I could let someone else deal With the ribbons
And then well have to make a list of what to give the orphans
Isn't that great? Lets think about it together, Judy.
Y yeah.
But will they all come?
Of course they will!
Well invite them to a fun Thanksgiving dinner!
Lets see... how about we ask all the students to donate their old clothing?
VVhy don't we give them #ome food
The meals in the orphanage cant be very good.
We have to pass the donation box around.
Say, Judy, what do you think?
Yeah... but., will they really be happy
Will they really be happy
Of course they'll be happy
Because orphans are such poor children,
and they don't have any parents
Of course they'll be happy if they get some presents, and we play with them.
#unrecognized text#
They looked happy when they were singing those hymns earlier.
I'm sure their teacher is strict
The teacher must have told them to be friendly because they needed to collect donations.
What's wrong, Judy
I thought that you'd be sure to agree with me.
I I haven't done the chemistry report. It's due tomorrow.
I'm sorry!
She's so cold hearted
I wonder what happened.
How could she think of such a thing?
But I'm looking forward to it
So am H
I found something to give to those poor children.
Will it be a suitable^gift for Thanksgiving?
That's right Speaking of Thanksgiving, there has to be a parade.
Why don't we ask the children to take part in the parade?
That's a good idea.
I'm sure It'll be fun!
Stop it now!
Stop it!
Stop it, everyone.
Judy Judy
You don't have any classes this afternoon, do you7
#unrecognized text#
PleaSeicome with me.

Nice to meet you
I'm Judy Abbott
Nice to meet you
You too.
Well, its sudden, but thisiis the schedule the committee decided on.
We thought about what^vye \#dukhgive^the children.
Thank you very much.
She's beautiful for an orphanage teacher, but I don't think she has any common s^r\s^
What do you mean by "presents"?
Well/I'm,going to ask all the^students to donate some things
And we'll'use the moneyxollected to buy Some fine clothes if or the-children.
Oh, that's a-wonderful idea!
Wonderfulr?"
But if possible, we vtfould rather haye^notebooks pens, and other educational material!*
We don't have enough.
Educational materials?
Well, we thought you would be happy with new clothes
Are you passing a donation box around?
Yes, of course.
You can collect enough clothes with the donation box.
Collect enough clothes with the donation box?'
The clothes that we wear wont fit the children.
And we were also thinking of having the children join in a dance and parade
And we were: also thinking of having the children join in a dance and parade
#unrecognized text#
The campus will be open to the public
Well then, shall I have the children sing at the Thanksgiving festival?
Sing?
They're all good singzrs.
After that, if we bring them to the parade, well be able to collect
more donations from the townspeople.
Will they be singing to get donations again?
Again?'
Oh, you saw us singing in front of the church?
That's right
Once a week, we go around town to sing.
Once a week?
That's a good idea.
So, after the parade
well bring all the students to the dining hall arid szrvz them dinner.
Were very grateful
Will you be preparing one of your usual dinners for us?
No, its the Thanksgiving dinner, so
Well, then we'll cook some corn pie and dry fruitcake.
So, please prepare a regular dinner for us.
#unrecognized text#
How should I thank you
The children will be so happy.
They wont be happy!
Not at all. If they're happy that will be thanks enough
I understand
Thank you so much.
Its like a dream to receive such kindness.
Not at all.
Were just doing what we can.
Are you helping Sadie organize this?
Um, no. I have exams, so
I suppose so. Your exams are coming up soon.
Yyes.
W&re really thankful, for helping us'When you're so busy.
Well then, please excuse me
What a woman!
I wonder
She's so smart and beautiful.
I want to be a businesswoman just like her.
I wonder
I'm going back
Hey, what's wrong?
This is wonderful
The orphans will definitely be happy
This is the best idea I've ever s^r\.
Hey, Judy. I'm going to put some clothes] in the donation box.
Should I bring some of (yours along )
Don't worry^jjllput some in later
Really? I'm sorry it's so sudden but any donation is fine.
Oonation?
Oh, just wait a minute.
Does everyone think so highly of donations?
Its fine! Any amount is fine.
Thank you so much for helping.
a le, ve come o ona e some money
Oh, Julia.
Oh, thirty dollars?
Oh, is that not enough?
No way!
Thank you so much for helping.
How much do you think we can collect for this charity??
If we collect enough^ we don't have to stop with educational materials.
We can buy some handkerchiefs and toys for them as well.
That's right
I want to make the children happy
know
Lets go to the orphanage and ask them if there's anything else they need.
Lets ask them what they want
Good idea!
I'm sure they'll be happy to see us!
#unrecognized text#
This is like a game to you.
What's wrong, Judy
Is it that enjoyable to do things for charity
Oh, but doing good things is enjoyable
And the orphans will be happy, too.
In order for everyone to have happy memories
the orphans are made to sing,
made to participate in parades they're treated like tools.
I don't like things like that!
Oh then, should we tell them not to come?
If we don't do anything, they wont have enough educational materials.
Don't you feel sorry for them?
#unrecognized text#
Judy was opposed to my ideas
I'm sorry.
I didn't think that you were so cold hearted, Judy
Lets 90, Sallie.
#unrecognized text#
Sadie, lets hurry and get prepared
I wish we didn't have a Thanksgiving dinner
Were so glad you came. Please come this way
Lambert sensei is not in at present
But, we're grateful
simply to be invited to a Thanksgiving festival being held
by a prestigious school such as Lincoln Memorial Girls' School.
by a prestigious school such as Lihtdlhi Memoria^6irls/School.
by a pffesticjious school such as Lincolhi Memorial Girls YSchobI
Were not imposing on you, ar»e we?
No, not at all.
What pretty clothes.
Where are those ladies from?
Lambert-sensei's children are eating at the moment
What on Earth is this?
What are you doing
Let me have one, at least!
bive it t>acK'
6ive it back*
Be quiet!
^How awful!
86 QUIET!
QUI ET!
Onee-chan! Let me touch your pretty dress!
Let us touch too!
I cant! I cant deal with them!
What an awful place!
Salliejyou should wash your hands properly and get changed, too.
I don't have any confidence left.
I couldn't shake hands with them
But I didn't run away
That's an understatement.
I never thought that an orphanage would be like that
What do you mean by "like that'
A dirty, dank place with a strange smell.
They're ill-mannered.
It's like they lived in a different world.
Don't you think you're being too harsh on them?
ou can on y say ecause you ve never been to an orphanage.
We nzvzr imagined that an orphanage would be like that.
So, what are you going to do about the Thanksgiving dinner?
#unrecognized text#
I can't do it
We wont be able to treat them as guests if we invite them.
I just can't do it
Lambert sensei was not in, so we told the Director that We Were withdrawing our invitation.
Sallie.
You're being selfish.
I can't do it I just can't!
Why not?!
Oh, but from the beginning, it seemed that you didn't want us to invite orphans
to the Thanksgiving/ dinner.
That's a different issue.
Now, it'll be like you lied to the children.
You enjoyed dreaming about how nice it wouldi be to invite the children
but now that you've seen how it really is you can't handle it They'll be disappointed
Is that the kind of person you are, Sadie?
I'm disappointed in you!
That's right.
I was too naive.
But I don't have any confidence.
I cant handle it!
I cant deal with it!
If we show them around the campus, no one will look after them.
Of course they wont.
Wouldn't it be terrible it they had to go back to the orphanage
Maybe we should just give them what's in the donation box
Oo you intend to give them some money and make them feel better?
Oh, then will you be helping me?
Weren't you against this?
You've mver even been to an orphanage!
Its easy for you to say it1
You talked about donating things to them so what did you do for them?
You didn't do anything, did youl
You have no right to talk like that to Sallie.
Its all my fault!
Sadie!
Go away
Sallied just a rich daughter, after all.
Thereis no way she can understand how orphans feel.
No one understands.
Dear Daddy Long Legs, I'm very upset because rich daughters are so seirish.
But I might have become a rich daughter like them
I don't want to look at the orphans at the Thanksgiving dinner
and remember my own sad past
I can only think about myself.
I have no right to blame Sallie.
In this world, there are sad facts of life.
To live my life without escaping from these facts
what should I teach these orphans?
Lambert sensei talked about it enthusiastically with me.
Next time: My Friends, Lets Sing Together.
Please watch.
