Cart loads of pumpkins yellow as gold,
Onions in silver strings,
Shining red apples and clusters of grapes,
Nuts and host of good things,
Chickens and turkeys, and fat little pigs
These what Thanksgiving brings.
Work is forgotten and playtime begins;
From office and schoolroom and hall,
Fathers and mothers, and uncles and aunts
Nieces and nephews and all
Speed away home, as they hear from afar
The voice of old Thanksgiving CALL
Now is the time to forget all your cares,
Cast every trouble away
Think of your blessings, remember your joys
Don't be afraid to be gay;
None too DID, and are too young,
To frolic on Thanksgiving day

There must be curtailment, retrench-

the boarding of money is foolish and
without reason but what good is to
come from stimulating the patient by
the injection of more large doses of

BY the time these devices for inf1a-

THE RED Cross.

The efforts Of the managers and Of
ficers of the Connecticut branch of
the Red Cross society to increase Its
membership deserve the sympathetic
support of the public at large. The So
ciety held its annual meeting Tues
day and again urged its existence upon
thinking people.
1t is difficult to get people to keep
such organizations in mind when the
skies are clear. The Red Cross be-
longs to that variety Of volunteer ef-
fort which is in evidence only when
there is trouble of a physical charac-
ter. Let there be war and the field is
occupied by the nurses who are sent
there by the organization. Let there be
an earthquake, a food, or a similar
calamity which engulfs a community
in distress and it Is the Red Cross
which is first on the scene. The point
was well made by Mrs, Kinney in her
report to the members of the society
Tuesday that the organization is one
of the grandest the world has ever
seen, for it has no other object than
to care for the suffering, on the one
hand, and, on the other, to give exer-
else to the finer qualities of the hui
man race at moments when their USE
fitness is apt to be forgotten.
1t is the record of the Red Cross
that when it makes its appeal for
money in times OF need the response is
iimmediateI but that is manifestly not
enough. There is always the chance
of money being scarce at that time
while the fund which rolls up from
annual dues is at hand for immediate
use when the demand is created. The
statistics of the society show that there
are thousand members in the State
of Connecticut. There should be not
less than ten thousand. The larger the
number the more prevalent the forces
become which make for kindness and
for intelligent charity. The annual
dues are but one dollar, which is little
lenough for an individual to contribute
to fund which performs the func-
ltion the Red Cross fund performs. We
admit that there are other charities
which must be supported in times OF
ipeace and of war, charities which for.
lever need aid. They should be support.
led, too, but there is little or no danger
of any one of them suffering for the
want of the dollar which should e
each year into the strong box of thi'
society.
Not the least attractive feature o
the Red Cross is that it is both a Chris
tian and human Institution. Its help
ing hand goes out to every one in dis
tress when help is needed and it
workers are to be found whereve
there is kindly work to do Connection
should stand proudly back of it.

Of the administration that made the
country receive the announcement of
the plan with but little comment. Now
that it is seen that the cure may prove
to be worse than the disease the storm
of protest is likely to increase in vol
ume
The fact that the situation had be-
gun to remedy itself before the gov
iernment stepped in may yet possibly
exert favorable influence in coun-
teracting the results of the error Of
judgment. In the meantime the new
situation emphasizes the constant
need there is of trained men in the
high places Of government to meet Just
such emergencies. Government by cla-
NOR and by experiment is relatively
safe when the sea is smooth, but it be-
comes exceedingly dangerous when the
clouds fill the sky and the winds blow.
No such superior wisdom can upon
i any theory be attributed to the admin
istration that its decision to move
without the counsel of experts may as
matter of course be accepted as the
right thing. That it did move independ-
emily of all counsel again calls atten-
ton to its unfortunate habit of under
taking whatever pops into its head.

A-stragglin' into our pack yard-his

His mind all free from worry and his

And notify the folks at home that he

I remember how my hunger fled
whene'er I heard his notes,
Like nightingales', soar upward as
from a thousand throats;
And how my father would depose and
most austerely state
That, although Mort was whistlin', I
could wisely let him wait.
But such advice was lost on me, for
was on the jump,
When my old pardner was out there,
a-whistlln on the pump.
Lord, how the buekwheats lost their
charm and syrup all its sweet,
Which at any otter moment not
norhin' else could beat!
How cold indoors tn ungrateful world
would suddenly appear,
When music underneath the porch
proclaimed that Mort" was neari
There may be JOY that makes your
heart go thImpl and thump! and

But none like that when my old pard

Since then I've heard some music, that

And was really seductive to an edu-
Gated ear;

Pay Your Small Debts.
trhe Philadelphia Ledger. }

(The Philadelphia Ledger)
Pay small debts. Give the grocer, the
tailor, the dressmaker and the servant
girl the money which belongs to them,
The Public Ledger early offered this
advice as one of the best prescriptions
for getting money into circulation. In
many cities the idea is being urged
with earnestness. Not only now, but
at all times the obligation Of promptly
paying small bills should be treated as
one Of the most urgent. Some people
might with benefit to business pay In
stantly their church subscriptions. The
preacher is sure to put his salary into
circulation Instead of curtailing men
might increase their church subscrip-
tons and stiffen their consciences
about quick payment. Business would
improve not a little.

The odd-lot buying goes steadily on
in Wall street. Many saving and pru-
dent people evidently think that things
are not going to "the demnition bow
vows" just yet The number of share
holders in the big corporations Is in
creasing largely. The Pennsylvania
Railroad company has added 1000
new shareholders in six months, while
the shareholders Of the New York
Central have doubled in number.
Reading shareholders have increased
more than 5000 since October Ii;
Northern Pacific over 5000, and other
great railroads in corresponding num-
bers, while Amalgamated Copper has
gained 5000 since the dividend was
declared in August.
And so forth and so on. It is to be
hoped that the faith and courage OF
the new investors will be we'll reward
ed, and that they will all be glad to
be included in the list of desirable cit
fzens as well as in the list of investors

ONE OF THE SIDES.

There are at least two sides to ev-
cry question, and there are at least
two sides to some Of the men whose
Ieagerness to do big things and perhaps
also to be big rich have got them into
trouble. One of these men is John r.
Walsh, who is now on trial for high
financiering" in Chicago. One Of his de-
tenders well and truly says of him; He
was the only man who had the nerve
to undertake to build a railroad
through the mountain Businesses OF
southern Indiana, entailing, as it did,
the expenditure of millions Of dol
lars. But he was equal to the occasion.
and, with the energy born of an in
domitable will, he began the task. He
employed the most skilful engineers
obtainable; the mighty rocks of Green
and Martin counties were pierced with
miles of tunnels; the chasms were
bridged with steel, and finally his eff
forts were crowned with success. A
vast territory which, prior to the adj
vent of Walsh, had been wilderness,
was opened to civilization; the prirfi-
tive hamlets were transformed as if
by magic into up-to-date and prosper
Gus cities. Where once all was squalid
poverty, now wealth abounds. The
earth has been made to give up her
hidden treasure of stone and coal, and
thereby the people Of southern Indiana
are furnished with cheaper fuel and
building material, and all this has
been accomplished by and through the
tlreless energy and executive ability of
John r. Walsh.
OF course 1t should be promptly and
clearly pointed out that the desire to
do big things and to become big rich
should not be allowed to lead to IL
legal or dishonest acts. But it is en-
tirely true that many of the men who
are now under the harrow did great
deal for their country and the world
before they got there And it will be
found that they did great deal more
for other folks than they did for
themselves, while probably not having
that as their chief intent

incandescent light. 1t was found that
a motor car can be run for twenty
four hours with one hundred cells in
a tank three feet long and eleven and
one-half feet square, and Weighing
complete less than two hundred
pounds. It is claimed that the largest
ocean steamers afoat can be run with
100000 eels, producing 10000 horse
power, and contained in tank not
larger than ten by ten by fifteen. This
plant, of course, will have to be du-
plicated so that when the energy in
one is exhausted it can be hoisted from
the hold to the deck, so that the sun
light may infuse new energy into it
while the power is furnished by the

This is encouraging. Perhaps the
time is coming when the FREELY can be

AS it is evidently time to begin to

CURIOUS CONFLICT or INTEREST,"


The wave of prohibition which has
been sweeping over the South has sub
merged Alabama, and that State can
soon be numbered among the dry
ones, the legislature having passed
prohibitory law. There has been
warm contest over the bill, and dur
ing the contest a very curious Conflict
of interests" has shown itself. Women
of Mobile went to Montgomery to
work against prohibition. This fact
needs explanation, and the explana-
ton is that the schools in their city
would lose $4,000 a year now accru-
ing from liquor licenses If the saloons
were closed. On their arrival at Mont
gomery they found the senate galleries
filled with prohibition delegations from
Montgomery, Selma and Birmingham.
Moreover, when they sought entrance
they were met by little school children
OF Montgomery, a holiday having been
given for the purpose, who tried to pin
on each one prohibition ribbon.
The spectacle Of Montgomery school
children working, against Mobile wo-
men who thought they were working
for the good of the schools was one
calculated to make the thoughtful
think. If the Mobile women were not
made doubtful Of the righteousness of
their cause by the Montgomery chill
dren it was because they (the women)
had their minds too firmly made UP to
allow any change.

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.


(The San Francisco Chronicle)
1t is not probable that the glamour
cast over mems minds by the stories of
Spanish treasure ships will be dispellcd
by the modern movement Of gold to
meet the requirements of trade, but the
performances Of sixteenth or seven
teenth century galleons when compar-
cd with those of a modern steamship
make the former seem like fifteen
cents" The Lusitania in less than six
days moved 1000, 900 worth of gold
across the Atlantic cargo nearly
twice as valuable as the richest
freighted galleon carried, say from the
Philippines to Spain, and which usual
ly consumed year in transit

THE N1Cr1oUr SPIRIT.

In dark days the Connecticut spirit
is apt to show itself just as it did on
that dark day when a Connecticut leg
islator ordered lights and led the way
in undisturbed attention to duty. In
the darkest day Wall street has seen
in many year it was a Connecticut
man who stood courageously up and
drove panic into its hole. And it was
a Connecticut lady who last week set
a good example in modifying the fnaIi-
cial situation in Danbury She calmly
walked into national bank in Dam
bury and said that if small bills were
scarce she would do what she could to
supply some. On being told that her
aid would be appreciated she went
away and in few hours returned with
a we'll filled stocking which contained
bills and small change which she was
willing to exchange for big bills When
the bank clerk counter out the amount
he was surprised to find that the
stocking contained $4,000.
Connecticut is all right and will
continue to be as long as her men and
women continue to be animated by the
true Connecticut spirit.

"a curious will dispute has recently
been settled by the court at Rehe. in
the department of the Ardennes,
France. Some time ago a man Of in
dependent means and somewhat &C.
centric habits committed suicide by
hanging A search among his papers
failed to disclose any will until under
the bed, on piece Of sheet iron, were
found the following words: This Is my
last will and testament. I bequeath al
my property to the borough of Ar
dennes, on condition that the Mayor
and Borough Council give e12 to the
men of the local fire brigade for "a bear
feast, to be held as soon as possible. u
This extraordinary will was disputed
by the relatives, but the local court has
