NH|IELAN Reid OPTIMISTIC
TAKES BRIGHT VIEW OF FlNAN'
CiAL OUTLOOK IN THANKS
GIVING ADDRESS.
SAYS IT HAS BEEN WORSE
Speaks to Three Hundred at the An
nual Thanksgiving Dinner of the
American Society in
England.

London. Nov. 29.-Whitelaw Reid
the American ambassador, spoke Opt
mistically of the financial outlook at
the Thanksgiving dinner of the Amer
lean society Thursday night
That the financial depression was
felt among the Americans in Englan'.
was shown by the attendance at the
banquet which was the smallest III
several years. Three hundred guests
participated, compared with 400 at last
years banquet. The president OF the
society. Col Willard Hunscker, was
absent. and Il. Newton Crane, for
mer president, presided in his stead
Mr.. Reds speech was received with
great enthusiasm. He said:
Ambassador Reds Speech.
Some one said to me, as | was
starting for this dinner, you will have
to be Mark Tapley tonight, cheer
full under difficulties That was only
an exaggerated way of saying that we
will have to be American as usual
Nothing could be more un-American
than to be downcast over temporary
encouragement or to dispair of the
republic because some of our people,
unhappily. have lost their money al
most as fast as they had made it. We
have seen such things before, and it
was worse when the country was not
half so big or half so rich as it is now,
and We have not forgotten how we
came out of them"
Continuing, Mr.. Reid said he was re-
minded of a motto he had once seen
on a sun dial to the effect that we
are in bit of fix, but we shall soon
be out of it again"
when the clouds roll BY" Mr..
Reid said, lit will be seen that we stu
have the country that Providence gave
us; that we still have people, and
that we still have the boundless OPP
portunities which, after every re
verse in the past have invariably
speedily lifted us higher and yet
higher. Given these, what American
fears the result?
At Peace with the World
III uiOSl iNHptNlo Jul NOuIIl utNtl
has been in happiner position than
today. 1t is not merely at peace, but
on terms of absolute good will with
all the world. The whole sensational
press was unable to make a ripple in
our cordial relations with that great
friendly people in the farther east
whom we had the honor OF first intro
ducing to the western world.
Even that spirited little colony be
yond our northern frontier, Newfound-
land, has good.naturedly agreed to
arbitrate things instead of going to
war with us, and however this arbi
tration turns out, we shall, on eithcl
side of the border, take it smiling aft
er the habit of our race"
The ambassador then paid a tribute
to the new star in the flag, Oklahoma
and said the next president would bt
head of forty-six states, with a popula
ton of 100,000,000 before the close O
his term.
Mr.. Reid, continuing, related the his
tory of Thanksgiving day.

she saying in effect according to his
testimony. that Senator Brown would
marry her when a gun was placed be-
fore him, bat the pastor added he did
not understand that she proposed
shooting him. He rather thought some

GREEN BUG BEING
KILLED, SAYS MOORE
College OF Agriculture Man
Says Parasites are Kill
ing AphiS.

Reports from other states through.
out the county have come to the
state university college of agriculture
this week in which it is declared tina,
the green Dug found in the southwes,
is no longer of any economic import
ance. Observtions made by Prot j.
G. Moore of the university of Wiscon.
sin concerning the aphis found 81
extensively in the oat fields reveal
the fact that its insect parsiter are
rapidly decreasing its number. As
yet none of the specimens sent to the
Experiment Station have been the
real green bug, the toxoptera grant
mum the insect found in the south
west. The green louise, which is to
be found IN Wisconsin fields, is the
ordinary cat louise, or aphis, and
although it is more abundant than
usual this year, it IS not the cause of
the poor oat crop. The poor crop, as
has been previously announced, is due
to grain rust, and not to insect pests.
