It is rather surprising the grip
that the automobile has gotten
upon the people of the country.
When the machine first made it's
appearance it was considered so
high in price that no one but a
millionaire ever dreamed of own
ing one, but of late many physic-
ians and others are using them
daily in their business, and the
practice is extending to the coun.
try districts. OF course, like every
other invention it is a nuisance to
farmers and others when met
on the country roads or in the
county towns, but in the course
OF time, if the machine comes into
general use, the horses may be-
come accustomed to it to such an
extent that there will be no
especial danger. But one thing
should be religiously insisted up
o.. The drivers of the automo-
biles should be compelled to
slacken their speed, and If neces-
sary stop, when meeting teams on
he road, something that at the
time they are peculiarly
averse to doing. About the only
Hanger IL when they whizZ by q
horse ct . breakneck speed and
peecipitate q runaway,
NTH its consequent mishaps and
seasonal loss Of life. The auto |
mobile has undoubtedly come to !
ltay, but let It's apead be regu-
nted.

to prove what the buying power of this
great Company must be. The small
manufacturer who turns out only a few
pianos each month will certainly have to
pay more for the material in each piano
there is absolutely no doubt about
this. e
When you consider these facts and
put this truth along side of them, that
there are only three companies in the
United States who have made and sold
as many pianos as pprselves-that we
haven't a competitor making high
grade plano whose output 10 as large rs
ours-it needs no argument to convince
you that, quality for quality, you can
buy cheaper of us than of any one else

History of Thanksgiving.
BY BEss MISER.

In England about three hundred
years ago every one was required to
worship in the church of England which
was the Episcopal.
This WAS distasteful to some Of the
people. They thought they ought to be
allowed to worship God as they pleased
From time to time they rebelled but as
this did no good they at last Determined
to go into exile. After one unsuccessful
attempt they settled for awhile in LIN
colnshire, then in the spring of 1908 un
der the care OF their pastor, John Rob
son, they embarked for Amsterdam,
Holland, and reached there safely.
After living there for one winter they
moved to Tegden and made their homes.
They called themselves pilgrims and
grew content to have no country which
they could call their own.
But the pilgrims could not forget that
they were English and the unfamiliar
language of the Dutch was difficult to
become accustomed to. Then they
planned to moye to the New World. so
two vessels the Speedwell and Mayiiow-
er were purchased. The pilgrims from
Holland we're to go on the Speedwell
while other pilgrims from London were
to follow on the Maytlower.
They had thought to build their new
home in the valley of the Hudson but
the ships were driven by storms and on
the ninth of November they landed on
Cape Cod. Some OF the men went on
shore but found nothing but snow and
ice. They were attacked by Indians
but escaped safely to the ship. So they
set sail again and on the eleventh of Dec
ember came to Plymouth Rock, here they
decided to stay but their supplies had
given out and a great many became sick.
They started to builc homes at once but
this went on very slowly as at one time
there were only seven well persons in
the colony. That first winter was very
hard for them. 1t showed much and
was very cold. In the spring they be
came friendly with tribe OF Indians of
whom Massasoit was the chief. He
SnOWeu luouu hoW W punt NOi"' AHN-
did so well that summer and had such
bountifu harvests that they decided to
set aside certain day on which to give
thanks to God. -Four men were sent
out to kill wild turkeys, deer and other
game of which the woods were full.
They invited tho friendly Indians and
all came together on Thursday. 1t was
a very beautiful day. The table was
placed under the trees. They went to
CHURCH first then had their feast. just
as thew we're about to sit down Massasoit
motioned to one of the braves who pour
ed large amount of popcorn on the
table delicacy which the pilgrims had
never before seen.
AT first Thanksgiving day was cele
brated only in the New England states
bu. as time went on the settlers from
those states spread, until number of
states celebrated it but in different
months Of the year. So President Lin
coln in the last year of lis life issued a
proclamation Getting aside the last
Thursday in November on which to give
thanks to God and the custom of pro
claiming the last Thursday in each Nov
ember as day of Thanksgiving has
been followed by each president.

Philip Schneider was in from his
ranch Monday, and reports everything
in shape for the winter, Schneider,s
place is good example of what might
be done by any thrifty ranchman in this
part OF the county. The place was fret
taken up several years ago aud known
as the Dale ranch, and has been claimed
at times by different parties until two
years ago, when Mr.. Schneider pur.
chased the original place besides 1G1
acres more making 800 acres, which he
has improved with commodious build
ings and fencing until it has the appear
ance of a typical country home. A
mammoth barn and stock sheds furnish
ample room for his entire herd, and
stacks OF hay that have been put up
tide over the snowy season. 1t is no
wonder that his expression is that of
satisfaction.

SOME RoCKEFELLER WISDOM


From the Kansas City World
Why is it that so many of our very
rich and also very merciless trsdesmen
cling so closely to the church?
Coal Trust Bear-he Of the marble
hearts very devOut, and now young
Rehabilitation boy-stands up
before his Sunday school and declares
that Christ didn't mean what He said
about the rich and and never expected
it to be taken literally.
Isn't there anything sacred to these
money pirates and home prayers?
They would even change the Bible aud
try to make the world and themselves
believe that millions literally wrung
from the people are honorable, that
seat in Paradise can be gained by Civ
ing to q college a million dollars and
then raising the price of kerosene
the poor mans light-to cover the
gift.
1t would be interesting TO hear
young Rockefeller's interpretation Of
the commandment: "Thou shalt not
steal"
Does it apply to an organization that
was built up by taking privileges from
its competitors, by railroad rebates
granted to John D. Rockefeller and his
associates and withheld from their
rivals by unbridIed Iawlessness; OF was
itmesntforth ep or devil who snatehes
a loaf from the bakers cart and
goes to the work house to satisfy just
ice?
The man who said, Sell al thou
hast and give to the poor. could never
have held a place in the Rockefeller
parent concern. He could never have
throttled the oil regions Of PeBnsyl.
vsnia nor could He have accumulated
a million dollars
He was the Honest Man, and it was
left for Rockefeller to discover that
His teachings we're not Intended to ap
pig literally to the rich.
Perhaps John Rockefeller, II, In
tended we'll. He is very rich and very
young. IF be knows the whole history
OF the greasy millions that viii one
day be his it is not strange that be j:
worried at the words he finds in tn,
Book Of books.
He knows, if he reads the news
papers and the plain people, that the
name be. bears is cursed. and for thi,
be can thank the great American
wreeker who has just been reelected
to the superintendency Of q Cleveland
O., Sunday school.
