but little to do with our happiness.
To the man who is conscious of his
own personal redemption, the posses.
sion of wealth or the absence of it,
has but meager effects on his thank
fulness.
AS evidence of this we may say
without guess or conjecture, that
there are more thankless, unhappy
rich people than poor people.
But let us thank God that we can
thank him in all the circumstances
and vicisitudes of life, and continual
ly carry gatitude in our hearts and
praises upon our lips. Bless the

within me, bless his holy name"

THOUGHTS ON THANKSGIVING.

! More than seventy-fve years of my
dear life have fed to the solemn past
I and have entailed upon me growing
!pbligation of gratitude to God.
Ingratitude is gross offense to
God, while thankfulness may be re-
garded as the criterion by which he
metes out his blessings to US. For
unless we thank him for past favors,
we cannot consistently ask him for
a continuation of his mercies. Genu-
ing gratitude and pure praise can only
emanate from a regenerate heart.
Thanks to God is fruit of the Holy
Spirit, and we must get in harmony
with him as our redeemer before we
can recognize him as our benefactor.
We will not say that the unconverted
are entirely thankless, but claim that
evangelical gratitude is Christian
grace Hence the demand upon
Christians is, BE we thankful" Paul
It is readily conceded that all Of Gods
should lender praise and thanksgiv-
ing unto him. Let everything that
hath breath praise him."
But what we desire to say mainly
in this writing that thanks and praise
should be perpetually the same at all
times. Consistency demands this

THE BOARD OF TRADE.

Within a short time thes Board o

organization of its kind that Colum
hia has ever known that has celebrat
III a birthday. But we are frank tC
confess that the Board of Trade will
lot break many more records unless
Ahere is more appreciation for anu in
.erest in 1t shown by the people OF
this city. It is true that the Board OF
Trade has not accomplished much,
out with the lack of interest, the alb
.sence CT support and the cold water
, hat 1t has encountered 1t has done
we'll to exist. It could be made a
splendid factor for the advancement
and development of the business in
..erests of the city and county but II
i The people who are most concerned
in these matters are wholly indiffer-
ent little success can be expected.
The Board of Trade has done good,
splendid work. No organization for
its size, for the amount of money that
1t has had at its disposal and that has
gone counter to as many indiifer-
ences, has ever done as much. 1t has
worked increasingly for the betterment
of city and county, that is fraction
of it's nominal membership has done
this. 1t could have done much more
if the members had tried but they
have seemingly been Indifferent to all
appeals 1t is manifest that useful as
the organization has been it cannot be
kept in existence unless the little but
devoted band who have faithfully fol-
lowed its standard are given some
measure of public support and encour-
agement.
The lack of interest was manifest
ed only last Monday. The Board OF
Trade had inaugurated and carried to
a conclusion that which should be the |
pride of every citizen, the first Boys |
Corn Contest known to the county.
It had helped to break all Tennessee
records for Maury county land; it had |
boosted every acre of Maury county |
soil: it had added to the value of ev-
cry real estate holding in the county,
and yet upon the day upon which the
prizes were awarded less than a doz-
en- members of the Board of Trade
manifested enough interest to attend
The meeting. it has been the same
way on other occasions. This sort OF
spirit, this lack of cooperation this

has and never will build up commu-
lity There is much that could be
lone in Columbia by real live COM
nercial organization properly sup
ported, but it will not be done unless
he business men bestir themselves.
We put this question squarely up to
he business men of Columbia: What
ire you going to do about it? Are
'ou willing that an organization
whose value is appreciated in every
'ther community, should perish for
ack of interest?

ment by superintendent Macarthur In
having the northbound Coast Line
train come in on the side track, and
the Homosassa train back up on the
main line, but he should instruct the

to wait, to let their train stop oppo-
site the passenger depot and not back
it up to stand in front of the fire sta
