A Thanksgiving Suggestion.

Now that it's all over and mob Sdy
really hurt-it's the election to which
we refcr-let's all get down to our nor
NAL condition once more and do the
best we can to keep the world moving
along smoothly There are many things
for US to do. even though we may not
have elected every man on the ticket
we voted. For instance. there is the
Thanksgiving turkey to fatten. Re
member that Thanksgiving comes early
this year-the 24th-and 1t Is high
time to begin stufiing the gObbler. The
cook will put In the postmortem stuff
ing-it is the antemortem feeding that
We mean. OF course, II you don't hap
pen to have turkey in your own back
yard you can begin fattening your
purse so that you can buy one at the
prevailing high prices
And. speaking Of Thanksgiving, our
Canadian friends purpose to have their
annual day Of thanks on Monday in
stead of on Thursday. There really is
no reason why Thursday should remain
our Thanksgiving day, except the
precedent established by long custom.
There are arguments for Monday.
Thanksgiving is the one day in all the
year when people feel that they sim
ply must gather at home for family
dinner. But thousands Of people live
too far away from the old homestead
to get there and back by taking only
one day away from business. With
Thanksgiving on Monday the start can
be made Saturday. This will give a
good holiday period at home. Our
Canadian neighbors are not invariably
wise, but in this instance they seem
to display a commendable quality Of
wisdom.

The little white, drawn face had an
intense appeal to 1t. but 1t fell upon
a hard, stony nature The forty years
Of hard life had dried up the we'll

a mute witness to one Of the tragedies

A few minutes later the child turned

Edward Hemminger ranch at Erskine,
six miles west of this city, and will

hospital building or it will be extended
over greater area, or there is posi-
bility of erecting separate building
for nurses training school"
The above article appeared in yes
terday's issue of the Deadwood Pioneer.
Times. Last week they had an article
treating with this same matter but lit
tie was thought of it at the time. Re.
garding the feeling of the business
men and citizens here in view Of
this proposed change we can say that
it is an entire surprise and beyond the
understanding Of most why such q
radical step has been taken by the
bishop. AS we understand it, the
hospital here has done a larger and
better business than any other of it's
kind in the west. The people have
supported it loyalty and its capacity
has been increased as business war
ranted. Last year new addition was
necessary and since its completion the
entire building which is thoroughly
equipped to care for over one hundred
patients has been taxed to its utmost
at all times. AS it stands it costs in
the neighborhood of sixty or seventy
five Thousand dollars. A large per
cent of this money has come from Hot
Springs people.
Now regarding the reputation of the
hospital, it is conceded that it's eftici-
ency is above par but the larger per
cent of the business 10 due to the
efforts of the physicians and surgeons
who have had charge of the medical
and surgical department. What Dead
wood would gain it is hard to determine
as there are other societies and
churches or even private parties who
would in case it were sold, take over
the property or If not, would erect a
larger and perhaps better institution.
1t is not the intention of the business
people and doctors here to let this pro-
posed change take place without voic.
ing protest and demanding reasons
for such proceeding. Granting the
fact that the bishop has all the author
ity in the mattes, the Hot Springs
people we feel sure will be listened to
by him and their wishes given a fair
and impartial hearing.
Should this proposed change take
place tho, as per reports, the hospital

place in the west to care for the sick
