There arc different ways of OBJ
serving Thanksgiving Day. The
dinner is AMI always has been, and
always Will he, q prominent feature
of the day. The time VIII never
come, doubtless. wheE the chief
interest of the festival Will not
center in the dinner. Just why
an elaborate dinner, should be a
proper medium for giving thanks,
perhaps no one can tell, but il is
SO, and we say, let the Thanks
giving dinner continue to flourish,
but do not spend too much time in
its preparation, and do not regard
the dinner as the only important
thing about IL.
Thanksgiving Day is n home
festival. Let there be family gath
erings, and good cheer at those
gatherings and a laying aside of
business and political cares, but
do not be too selfish in this feature
of the days observance. At least
remember, that there are homes,
where there arc sorrow and want
and need of sympathy and help.
This is something which is always
mentioned in proclamations as
suitable for the day. But is there
really much attention paid to it?
Another thing that is always
insisted upon in the proclamation
and very much neglected in prac-
tice, is attendance upon public
worship. Public rendering OF
thanks for good received, is comely
and beneficial. Let this part OF

Royal Arch Masons.

of the United States of America began
its twenty eighth triennial convocation
here at high noon, Wednesday. This
body is the largest Masonic body in the
world, having membership of 141, ,9O1.
1t is also the oldest body in the United
States, and it will celebrate its centennial
in 1897. An address of welcome was de-
livered by Mayor p. b. Winston, and a
response by the general grand high priest,
ID. F. Day, of Buffalo, N. Y. The report
of the general grand scribe showed that
in two years the new growth of the or

ship now is 141, 1,901. Since 1889 $186-
796 were collected and S18S, ,095 expend-

Interesting references was made to the
growth of the order in Asia, Mexico and
South America. The grand chapter in
Chile has not been heard from on account
of the civil war. The general grand
high priest in his address said that the

5000, 600 bushels Of wheat. The purchase

present the benefit accruing TO this city
from such expenditure, for you must take
into consideration the vast number OF
hands that must necessarily be employed
TO handle the grain, on the railroad, at
the piers, and on shipboard.
