White Mills. 1t is an annual affair.
My family go with me, and Miss
Emma Ferber and Robert A. Ferber
also"
w. II. Lee, Esq, had this to say:
/. For the kind Providence of
loving Father, that has crowned the
year with fair health and happiness
to myself and loved ones"
2. For the many opportunities
whereby increased knowledge was
obtainable, better fitting me for the
duties of the present life and for
that which is to come"
3. That all my kindred are per-
mitted to join the nation in giving
thanks for these and unnumbered
blessings that have come to us and
them"
That they are blessed with so
many and excellent churches, where
intelligent, consecrated preachers
have unTemittingly and fearlessly
attacked wrongs and wickedness in
all places, have encouraged the weak
comforted the sick and hard bestead,
pointed lovingly the unredeemed
to their Savior and urged, with all
their manhood, their acceptance of
the only Redeemer.
That the city fathers are no
worse than their predecessors, al
though they have done the things
they ought not to have done and
have left undone the things they
ought to have done and there's
nothing but mud for us to walk in,
even on the crossings. They might
have burdened us with taxes and
debt, in order that the owners of
real estate on Main street should
have their properties advanced in
value at the expense of the remain
ing property owners. In short, they
have kindly worked their help, paid
part of the debt, and permitted us
to slumber quietly. When persons
duly elected to the offices of the
borough shall put the same energy,
vim, careful business calculation in
to their official actions as has crown
ed their private affairs, we shall
hope upon some future occasion to
have much more to encourage us to
give thanks as community"
3. Expect to be at home on

friends, and health. The county has
not suffered from floods and despite
the dry weather has enjoyed general
plenty and prosperity. | shall spend

ACCIDENT MARS
CONVENTION TRIP
DELEGATES TO BETHANY SUN
DAY SCHOOL CONVENTION
NARROWLY ESCAPE BEING
KILLED

Mrs. Pulls and Mrs. Palmer, de
egates from the Siko Sunday school
to the Bethany convention, on Fri
day, met with an accident which
might have resulted very seriously
to them. After the afternoon ses-
sion, they started for home in their
buggy. While proceeding along the
road, they heard the hoof beats of
a horse rapidly approaching them
from the rear. Owing to the buggy
canopy they were unable to look
and see who it was, but they made
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1910-11-23

room for the approaching vehicle
to pass them by driving to the side
of the road. Meanwhile, the We
hicle came laundering down the
road, struck the wheels of the bug
gy in which the ladies were seated,
demolishing the wheels, making a
complete wreck of the buggy, and
throwing the ladies to the ground,
but not seriously injuring them.
Thew at once retraced their steps to
Bethany, secured another wagon,
and proceeded on their way home.
Shortly after this occurrence, Mr..
Oscar Miller, who was also attend
ing the convention, and had left his
horse and wagon tied under the
sheds of the Methodist Episcopal
church, discovered that his horse
and buggy were missing, and it is
thought that possibly it was his rig
which had done the damage. Mr..
Miller is a very careful and pains
taking man, and no doubt tied his
horse securely, and it is a mystery
how he managed to get loose and
run away.

SOME THINGS VET TO BE DESIRED TO FILL
THE CUP OF BLESSING TO ITS BRiM--
1910 a BANNER YEAR FOR THE MAPLE
CITY.

I. What special reasons, as an in
dividual, do you have for giving
thanks this year?
z. What special reasons, as a COM
munity, do we have for giving
thanks?
3. Where will you spend Thanks
giving?
A number of well-known residents
of Honesdale were asked these ques-
tions by a representative of the
CITIZEN Monday morning. Their
replies, numbered accordingly, are
given below. The list might have
been much extended, but the report
er was unfortunate in finding that
a good many men were attending
bank directors meetings, out of
town, or otherwise engaged,
Mayor John Kuhbach, who is in
the second year of his successful ad-
ministration of the affairs of the
municipality, when seen, said:
/. That's rather a hard question.
There are so many things to be
thankful for. Well, | tell you, to
be well and have your family well
and business prosperous. That
ought to be enough, personally,
hadn't it?"
2. well, as a community, we
certainly have special reasons. The
business of Honesdale is in good,
healthy, prosperous condition. Any
man, woman, young woman or girl
can find employment. The pros
perity is shown by the fact that new
families moving in can hardly find
a place to reside. We are free from
epidemics and diseases generally.
The laws in the borough in regard
to peace and good order are OBJ
served very closely. We have a
High school and corps of teachers
second to none, new Armory build
ing, hospital practically assured,
and a number of new industries
starting with energetic young men
in charge who are bound to succeed
3. "At home
District Attorney NJ. E. Simons
granted the reporter an interview.
In reply to the interrogations he
said:
1. "Oh, l don't know. l got a
good many"
2. Il don't know anything better
than the general health of the COM
munity, which is excellent at this
time.
8. AT home"
Squire Robert A. Smith had these
replies to make:
/. Il have none. l believe in
| giving thanks always. l always
celebrate Thanksgiving.
2. For all prosperity. for every
thing that happened and was done.
| OF course there are some things
Since November l we have been
| having bad weather for November
Still we had nice Fall"
3. I'VE always have family
Thanksgiving dinner"
County Detective N. B. Spencer
said:
l. MY family and myself enjoy
the best of health"
2. That the town is in the most
prosperous condition it has been in
many years. The poor man has 6
chance to earn his daily bread. There
is chance for every man who is will

Prothonotary NJ. ]. Hanlan:
/. 1T was successful year fol

Mr.. Won Holt returns thoroughly post

only missed one copy of the paper.
Before he sailed, Mr.. Won Holt figur

STOLE A PAIR FOR
 EACH MONTH IN YEAR
Mexican Caught Walking Away From the Hub With Dozen Pair
 Of Overalls.

With a huge pile of brand new overalls on his shoulders. Ramon Gar cia was strolling leisurely up the alley back of the Washington street stores. yesterday afternoon. He smoked a cigaret and tried to look as though the 'overalls belonged to him. But Ramon is not a good actor
 Health Officer Lambertz saw the man walking along with the dry goods There have been so many jobs perpetrated of late by amateur. -racksmen that Lambertz decided to question Garcia. The Mexican could not "savvy" at all. Lambertz then held him while another man tele- phoned for the police. JaiIer John Perrin had the honor of making the arrest.
 It was discovered that Garcia en- tered the Hub from the rear and grabbed the first articles of wearing apparel he happened to lay his hands on. The doors are always left open in the day time and the Mexican se- lected a moment when the clerks were in the front part of the store. He might have stolen the same mum Der of suits of fine clothes If he had stepped a little further into the store.
 Garcia tried to explain away the
