ABUNDANT REASON.

Thankful? Why not? This ques-
ton, answered by question. covers
the ground Why. indeed. should not
we OF Missoula be devoutly thankful?
We have abundant reason for the most
sincere thanksgiving and IL we are not
grateful. we are the most unapprecia-
tive people in the world. for upon US
have been showered the unstinted
blessings Of a Good Oliver: temporal
and spiritual are these mercies and
they are numerous II we will but pause
to count them. Look up. not down.
Forget the mud underfoot in the con-
temptation Of the breaking clouds
overhead. The year has been fruit
full OF much good to MissoulA.
Physically. the city has made . for
ward advance that is little short OF
marvellous and, combined with tho
growth that has taken place. is the
assurance Of the continuance OF the
broad development that has been the
characteristic of the season now clos
ing. In the higher sense. Missoula's
betterment has been great: the city
liz better morally than II WAS a year
ago and the tendency is toward
further improvement In this direction.
There Is every reason why we should
be thankful: as individuals and as q
city we have prospered and we should
not fail in making due and formal
recognition OF the fact. Give thanks
for what the year has brought and
combine with the expression OF graft
tude the resolution TO exert every ef-
fort to bring about further better
ment in the months that are TO come.
The boosters have so. 1000" as their
motto: these figures are but u symbol:
they stand for the mark that IL high
er and better than our present posi-
ton. And. upon this Thanksgiving
morning. let our determination be to
see to II that We strive for that which
is better and broader-strive for our
selves and for our neighbors. Then
will this University city become the
place which we all earnestly desire
to have IL.

happy event. Later the day came to
be set apart in the autumn or the early
winter to give thanks for the abundant
harvests and general prosperous con-
dition OF the colony
Thanksgiving day was a national
institution during the revolutionary
by congress; but after general
thanksgiving for peace in 1884. there
was no national appointment till 1883.
when President Washington. by re-
quest OF congress. recommended a
thanksgiving for the adoption Of the
constitution. In 1915 day OF thanks
giving for the restoration OF peace
was recommended by President
Madison.
During the early part Of the century
Thanksgiving remained an institution
peculiar to New England. but was
not always held either on the same
day or in the same month. each state
appointing its own day. Proclama-
tions recommending special days of
thanksgiving for victories In the civil
war were issued by President Lin
coin in 1862 and 1863. and in 1864 he
appointed the national proclamation
Since that time II has been customary
to celebrate Thanksgiving day
throughout the United States on the
last Thursday OF November

A new dwelling proposed at the late hygienic
congress in Berlin is! to have each successive
story narrowed from three to six feet with sew
eral feet of balconies to widen the terraces thus
formed. This plan. recommended particularly
for sanatoriums and houses for the poorer

for each story, and supplies an open space for
recreation out of doors. Asa material for build

Ferro-silicon, now coming into extensive use
as a ready means of adding silicon to certain
grades of steel, is produced by heating in the
electric furnace a mixture of iron ore, quartz,
coke and lime. When wet it gives on much
phosphoretted hydrogen. arseniuretted hydro
gen and other gas, and the death of five Russian
immigrants last December, while passengers in
the steerage of a steamer from Antwerp TO
Grimsby, has been traced to poisonous emana-
lions from cargo of this material.
