Soft and comfy and deep and wide,
With rockers made for the dreamland
ride;
Always ready when she comes in
With her ball of yarn and her knitting
pin;
Cozy and sweet for a little form
Where the freight glows with well
The hands of loving have placed it
there
Grandmother's throne is her rocking
chair.
Soft and friendly and full of room,
When the twilight comes with its ten
der gloom,
And little child stands by her knee
With ears that list for the fairy glee;
When she takes him up in her arms of
And lays his head on her gentle
breast,
While forth to slumberland they fare
On the. wonder-wings of the rocking
chair.
Grandmother chair by the ingle nook
is a slumber song and story book;

Whereon to the dreamland deeps we go;
A lullaby and a hug and kiss,

A little wight of the golden CLEAN,
And the fond farewell for the fireside

GRANDMOTHER dreams she was once a

All day long through her thin, soft lips
Her tald OF old-time fashion trips;
All day long in her heart of gray
She feels the touch of the Other Day
The twilight falls so softly there,
When grandmother maps in her rocking
chair.
Round IL clusters the home delight;
Round her, a relic, with dimming sight,
no wreath the roses around her feet;

When they rock-a-by to the land of

JAPANESE IN SAN FRANCISCO

AS to the schools, the Japanese gov
ernment practically understands that
the people of this state are not under
the slightest obligation to tax them
selves to teach Japanese the English
language or to admit oriental pupils
at all into our schools where their
presence may be distasteful to our
own people. In view of the fact that
we have not in this city sufficient
buildings to accommodate our own
pupils. the Japanese government will
see that our provision of special
schools for the instruction of orientals
is an act of the most kindly considera-
tion on our part. The japanese gov
ernment also knows that in view of
the restrictions placed on our people
in Japan and its dependencies it is in
no position to complain if we should
conclude to exercise the right which
the japanese have formally recognized
by treaty to exclude those classes of
their people whose presence here is
certain to result in conditions and acts
which would interrupt the friendly re-
lations between the two nations.-San
Francisco Chronicle.

DAY OF THANKS

The foremost subject for thanksglv-
ing in these early years of the twen-
tieth century is the fact that we do
not live in the era when Thanksgiving
day had its origin. When the good
Purltans introduced the custom we
honor today away back in 1921, they
had few things to be thankful for, but
they were mighty important things.
The first was that their scalp-locks
were not dangling at the waists of
their Indian nelghbors. The second
was that their chances were fair for
pulling through the approaching win
ter without danger Of death from
starvation.
In our era Thanksgiving day would
hardly be recognized by one of its orig
inators, If It were possible for him to
pay us a visit. The religious feature
of the occasion has gone through such
a process of gradual elimination that
but little is left of 1t now. Instead of
the universal custom of church going
on the eventful day, which prevailed
in the olden time, 1t is necessary now
for some churches in this big city of
Los Angeles to pool the Thanksglv-
ing service in order to make a fairly
good showing of a congregation.
But the olden time feature Of the
family reunion and the joyous gather
ing of intimate friends has been pre-
served through all the mutations of
modern customs. And the crowning
event of the day, in which the dismem-
berment of Turkey is discussed and
enjoyed, has lost none Of it's charm in
the long chain of years since the Pill.
grims Of the Mayfower introduced the
custom.
Thanksgiving day Observance is
purely an American institution all
though it has spread abroad to some
extent by the migration of our coun-
trymen to foreign lands 1t is an in
teresting fact that the section of the
United States which now has the great
est cause for thanksgiving, in a general
sense, is a section farthest from the
point where the custom had it's origin
in good old Massachusetts.
Well may the fortunate dwellers in
Gods ountry"-Southern California
be thankful for the blessings they en-
