in 1o2l-those sturdy pioneers whose
piety was as pronounced as their pluck,
who honored themselves 10y honoring
their Deity. The custom soon became
more general, spreading over all the
New England states. After the revo-
luton it gradually extended to the mid
die states and later to the west, grow
ing more slowly in the south. In 1859
the patriotic Lincoln forever estab-
lished it in the list of holidays by pro-
claiming a day Of Thanksgiving, his
action being promptly followed by the
individual proclamations of the govern
ors of the states, who named the same
day. Since then, by common consent,
the first announcement of the day is
found in the presidents proclamation,
and the day so named is also named by
the states.
In many ways, says the American
Agriculturist, Thanksgiving is one os
our most delightful events. 1t comes al
time when the rigors of winter are not
yet at hand. We have at our disposal
all the varied products of the soil, and
the time for a season of partial rest for
the farmer is at hand. One Of its most
delightful features, which has become
quite general, is the gathering together
under the old rooftree of all the scat
tered sons and daughters on this day.
Two, three and sometimes four genera
tons thus meet around the festive and
hosptable table Of the old homestead.
and thus fraternal ties are strengthened
and tilial piety encouraged.
Another and not less commendable
feature of this holiday is a practical

We think the county board ,acted
unwisely in disallowing the bills Of
physicians for reporting births
and deaths when the only. reason for
50 doing is that the.physician neglect
ed to send in his report IN 80 days
Most doctors regard the requirement
to make the reports a nuisance any
way and would prefer not to report
at all. The thirty-day provision has
not been enforced heretofore. Prob
ably : OF the returns made and paid
for since 1881 have been faulty in this
respect yet they have met the re-
quirements of the spirit of the law if
not the strict letter Of it. The board
action in cutting off the 15c fee on Il
teehnicality will probably result in
most physicians refusing to report at
all. They make their report more
from a sense OF public dutys than
for the fee aud ii is small wonder that
they are indignant at being placed in
the attitude OF seeking TO Improperly
raid the county treasury even for a
small amount.
