AN EARLIER DATE.
A Desire to Have Thanksgiving Day
Come Earlier.

For a number of years the Lutheran
Observer Philadelphia) has been making
special and earnest effort to have the
date of Thanksgiving changed to an
earlier day in the season, and its propo-
sition seems to find an increasing number
of adherents each year. especially among
the religious papers. Its chief argument
is that the present custom of fixing
Thanksgiving day late in November
brings it as most unpleasant and usually
Indictment season, long after harvest days
have passed. 1t favors the selection OF
October ~ as a date which would have
the additional and happy significance of
being the anniversary of the discovery
of America. This year the Observer re-
news the call for a change in the follow
ing strain: w.t.,
1.-THE proper day for our National
Thanksgiving is already Mt hand, but
as heretofore, no day within that proper
season will be appointed by any governor
of State nor by the president of the
Nation. The old anachronistic time,
nearly two months out of season and on
the shivering edge Of winter will ere
long be designated and the people called
upon to meet in their places of worship
to render thanks to God for the fruits
of the earth in their season. and for the
blessings of the past year.
Harvest home services have already
been held in many of our Lutheran
churches and the churches of some other
denominations also, at which the Sunday
schools and young and old met in sanct-
uaries decorated with plants and vines
and flowers and grains and fruits of the
earth tastefully arranged and in appro-
pirate discourses praised God for the
blessings of the year, with all the i'm
pressive evidences of His bountiful good
ness around them. Such services and
thanksgivings rendered in their proper
season are not only most acceptable to
God, but present most appropriate object
lessons and demonstrations of Gods mer-
ciful kindness from year to year.
But why do not our governors of
States and our presidents appoint our
State and National thanksgiving in the
proper season, when already the harvest
and fruits of the earth in more than
three-fourths of our country have long
been ripened and gathered? Simply be-
cause an old precedent and custom of
New England have fixed the time nearly
two months later than it should be and
the stolid inertia of a bad custom has
perpetrated the absurd anachronism and
no official is willing to inaugurate a re-

IN THE WRONG PEW

Quite stir was made in Methodist
circles in Chicago recently" says the St.
Louis Christian Advocate, "by the at
tendance of Rev. III. G. Leonard, Meth
odist minister, on n special service held
by Mgr. Satolli, in which he, with others,
received the papal benediction. Mr..
Leonard was interviewed on the subject
and admitted that he received the bene-
diction and was proud of it. He is pas
tor of the Hyde Park church and the
stewards were soon informed of what
had taken place and they lost no time
in demanding an explanation. 1t was
stormy interview, and the Rev. Mr..
Leonard did not know which way to
turn to escape the cross-fire of questions
that were hurled at him from all direc-
tions. He said that he had never be-
fore been interviewed by a newspaper
man and hardly knew what he had said.
Then the reporter was called in and
asked to produce his notes of questions
and answers. After these had been read
Mr.. Leonard told the three trustees that
he had gone to the convent with q Miss
Garrison, a former member of the Cath
Ole church, out of pure curiosity to see
a great man, and that Mgr Satolli had
blessed the entire congregation of which
he was member. 1t is said that the
trustees of Hyde Park church will in
stitute a thorough investigation. They
ought to do so. A Methodist prea cher
has no business in such a place.

TO ALL LABOR1NG MEN.
A Candid Word of Advice by a Brother
Mechanic.
Austin, November 8, 1895.
To the Mechanics of Austin:

Austin, November o, 1919.
To the Mechanics of Austin:
Nearly quarter of a century ago
came to Austin just out of my appren-
ticeship. For many years L worked mere
at my trade, always endeavoring to keep
in the front rank as workman ana
useful citizen. Some of my fellow work
men have passed me in the race Tor
wealth and prominence, but many, alas,
SO many, have remained behind, and
hundreds of worthy men who had bright
nrosnects at the start are now hopelessly
stranded in the slough of despond."
/ began with nothing, but by rigid econ,
omy and self-denial 1 gradually saved
enough money to purchase lot, then dol
lar by dollar enough more was saved TO
build an humble home in which sweet
Austin girl was installed as mistress.
Then followed what seemed to be the
| brightest pictures in the temple OF my
memory. Successes and adversities have
| followed. but I have accumulated suffi-
Gent of this worlds goods to release me
| from my trade and call on me to dwell
elsewhere, but my heart is always in
Austin, and my best wishes with my
old companions, with and among whom
| spent my early days. 1t is to this
class / desire to say a word before L
return home from my visit to the regatta;
| You mechanics of Austin, you clerks and
| laboring people who have built your lit
| tie home nests brick by brick dollar do
you not realize that the future of this tair
| city, the value of your homes, the welfare
| of your dear sons and daughters, lie IN
your own hands; that the class desig-
| mated control the balance OF power IN
municipal affairs, and can be exerted to
great good just now. You despise dirty
politics, and most all municipal politics
| is dirty. That is why | feel impelled to
| talk to you, for it seems to me that you
have at this time an opportunity to place
| the city administration into clean hands,
Lewis Hancock has grown up in your
midst. He was a good boy and is a
| good man. As mayor any dirty ward
politics and trading would be grossly re-
pugnant to his disposition and lifelong
| training. He is a business man of I'M
questioned ability and would conduct the
| city's affairs as he does his own. There
are few cities in America so peculiarly
situated as a vast business institution as
Austin is just now with her lake and
dam and water and power plants. In
| the hands of a business man these are
magnificent properties; in the hands of
scheming politicians they will prove ours
es to the city, and then who will suffer
more than the mechanic who must leave
| the home that has been his life work to
build and seek employment elsewhere!
| Austin has cast the die and she must go
| either forward or backward-she cannot
now stand still. Under good business

Take the description of the armor worn
by Goliath, diminutive Davids great adj
versary. OF course, 20S pounds for a
coat of mail was a little more than mod

head weighing % pounds required a
mighty arm to WELD it effectively. But
along comes discovery with the "colos-
sal head of an immense lance" found in
an ancient Armenian royal palace. Its
width is ) ID inches, its length 81 1-2
inches, with six holes by which it was
fastened to its shaft. The Old Tesla
ment story is not so bad after all. Be

WILL PAY THE TAX

All the French authorized male relig-

pay the new tax imposed by the govern

that, having to choose between compli-
ance and passive resistance, the moral
necessity does not exist that would justi-
fly the latter course. They thus take the

WANTS TO CHANGE THE DATE

WANTS To CHANGE THE DAIE.
Every fall for the past number of
years the Lutheran Observer has made
an earnest effort to have the date of
Thanksgiving day changed to an early
day. This year the appeal is renewed,
the chief argument being that the present
date of celebration brings our National
holiday at the most inclement season
of the year, and when the harvest is long
past. The Lutheran Observer favors
October II as a much better day and
likewise appropriate as the anniversary
of the discovery of America.
