ANOTHER SHABBY TRICK.

Small Politicians OF the Veteran Firemen's
Association shown UP.
The Veteran Firemen's Association held
a banquet Thursday night, and In an ac-
count of 1t by one of the local papers 1t
said that Mayor Gottschalk had been In
vited to make an address, but was unable
to on account of pressure OF business.
This statement the Mayor characterizes as
a falsehood, as he received no invitation to
speak or be present. This is another one
of those little squibs which are occasion
ally handed to reporters by willy politicians
for political effect.
1t is whispered from the inside that the
original program called for speeches by
prominent citizens and out-of-town
guests. A certain number wanted to in
vite the Mayor to preside, but the peanut
politicians who were on the committee
tabooed this idea; there might be some
advantage in it, and from their short
sighted view it would never do to have the
Mayor there, II will be remembered,
however, not so long ago, when the asso-
citation was in hot controversy with
Matron Fits, they read, one evening, a
long whining set of resolutions, setting
forth their many noble qualities. The
resolution ended with the illustrious
names who composed the members hip.
The first name on the list was Hon. Will
liam Won Gottschalk, Mayor of Central
Falls. That is the time when the Vets
were crawling.

larity. The contest I. roughoot mas oeeh
a spirited one, and has o>Ve'opeo the iact
that the various teachers hap,, many warm
and true friends who put forth sVery exer-
tion to have their favorites win.
Miss Goldsmith, the winner in the Gen.
trail Falls division, may well feel proud of
her victory over her competitors, for it
must be said that the different candidates
were among the most popular young ladies
in the city. To win under those condi-
tions is an honor which Miss Goldsmith
ought to prize as a special endorsement Of
her popularity with the public. In Miss
Goldsmith, Miss Heffernan and Miss Nc
Grath, the public schools OF this city will
have able and accomplished representa-
tives at the Inauguration. The citizens of
this city may rest assured that the dignity
of the teaching corps, the city and the
community at large will not suffer in the
hand of those three young ladies.

we may not come to.look upon this
day and these days of thanksgiving as
the days when the spirit of Infinite
Goodness was especially near to US in
life.
When our thanks are given out not
by the words of our mouths only as
the price paid in full for blessings re-
ceived, but by the meditations of our
hearts and the actions of our lives as
the glad response to the world in
which we live, then, and not till then,
will the day be truly a Thanksgiving
Day. The only value it ever can have
will be its correspondence to our own
individual lives. That value becomes
greater and grander as human life be-
comes greater and grander.
