THANKSGIVING Day.

According to the declaration of the
Governors of the different states,
Thursday the 29th day of November is
to be observed as Thanksgiving Day.
And while we as nation have gradual
ly drifted into the keeping of this day,
and usually look forward to the pro-
carnations issued, it is scarcely under
stood why this day is set apart, and
where the custom first originated.
1t is, of course, believed fitting to
return thanks to an indulgent creator
for the manifested goodness bestowed
upon us as nation for the past year;
yet the custom is supposed to be of
great antiquity, having according to
some learned writer's, been taken from
the Mosaic law. This, by many is con-
sidered doubtful, although the Hebrews
were accustomed to celebrate an abun-
dant harvest by public festivals. These
festivals were established at the earliest
periods.
History tells us that the escape of
Lyden, the great painter, was made the
occasion of great praise services, while
the discovery of the Guy Fawkes plot,
was observed in England by thanksgiv-
ing services up to within recent
period.
Some are constrained to believe that
the custom we observe was transferred
from Holland where the Harvest
Home is yearly festival. Let that be
as it may, there is no doubt, that the
origin of Thanksgiving in the United
States is due to the festivities held by
the early settlers of New England.
During our colonial days they were
annually celebrated, and it was recon-
mended by the Revolutionary war con-
gress that day be set aside for thanks
giving and prayer.
A noticeable feature, is the fact, that

A New Industry.

1t is rumored, upon very good author
ity that Plymouth may have new fac
tory in the near future. Certain parties
have carefully looked over the ground
with an idea of locating a plant for
manufacturing organ cases, and fine
furniture of that class. The Behrens
property west of the L. f. & w. track
seems to afford good location and facil-
tiles for the establishment of such a
plant and it is very probable Chat it will
be instituted there if anywhere in Ply
mouth.
Such a factory as this one would en-
ploy large number of men and be a
benefit in more ways than one to this
city. The business men and citizens
who have any desire to see their city
advance, and improve, cannot do too
much in their endeavors to induce such
an industry as this to locate here. 1t is
to the presence of manufacturing inter
ests that Plymouth, and every other
prosperous city, owes its advancement
and it is the duty of everyone to put
forth special effort to show to the out
side world the advantages which Ply
mouth offers as manufacturing and
mercantile centre 1t is said that a
meeting of the business mems associa-
tion will be called in day or two to
consider the matter. and in our next
issue we hope to be able to chronicle
the important fact that another large
manufacturing industry has decided to
locate in Plymouth.

It Is With Us.

The beautiful city of Plymouth does
not need a boom to place her in the
front rank among progressive cities. A
steady, healthy growth is one of those
necessities that is essential to the adj
vancement of any community. This is
one of the prominent features con-
nected with Plymouth. Whenever a
good thing presents itself to us, and the
keen, wide awake, energetic, hustling
business men see it they show their
aggressiveness and shrewdness, and
appreciation of benefits they are secur-
ing for their home, and without flour
ish and footing of horns, they proceed
to act.
The growth of city is like any other
business or enterprise. The location of
town may be central and splendid. 1t
may have all that can be desired in the
way of site, all the elements of health
and advantages that nature may be-
stow, but it will have no better chance
to grow into Importance on these ac-
counts than would the most obscure
spot on a barren desert, unless those in
terested in its growth and advancement
take advantage of the benefits, and, in
stead of hiding their lights under a
bushel, or even pint measure, for
that matter, let the world know of it,
and the great advantages to be derived
by investing in the town and by bring
ing to it large and important manufac-
turing industries. The success of most
of the noted cities in Indiana or the
west, which are favorably know and
have become prominent as business
centers, has only been accomplished by
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1894-11-23
