Thanksgiving Day was good day fol
meditation. So We meditated a few.
We thought OF Thanksgiving of 10 years
ago with its old fashioned turkey roast,
chic ken pie, plum pudding, mince and
custsrd pie, apples and cider, and large
gathering Of young and old to put 1t un.
der cover. Truly, "those were happy
golden days, sweetly spent in prayer and
praise"
We also thought Of the day 40 years
ago when our Thanksgiving dinner menu
consisted of ono bareback and an army
dipper of cold water at Offutt's Cross
Roads some ten miles above Washington
In Maryland. We thought, how many OF
our comrades who Jared SO sumptuous.
ly (2) on that day are dining to-day on
turkey and all the good things that the
present day affords. All, but few re.
main and every year the number Is Less.
On Thanksgiving Day, 1911, as we
with our faithful companion Of over 90
years. service in preparing dinners, were
unable to dine out, our hearts were
cheered and our palates tickled by the
presence of our daughter "Addis" Keene

Goinq Back TO Holland.

Newton, Dec. Especial: Return
TO their native home in Holland be-
ing made necessary IN order to save
the life of Mrs. John Kalma, she and
her husband will leave their farm,
three miles southeast of Newton, this
week, and plan to spend the remain
der of their lives in their native land.
Mr.. Kalma is we'll satisfied with this
country. but his wife has been lone
some here and actually has grown so
homesick that it is imperative that
she return home in order that her
life be preserved. The Kalmas came
to Jasper county seven years ago.
They had just S12 at that time. In
the seven years that have elapsed
they have acquired more than $4,000
in money and last week Mr. kalma
had sale that totalled about $4,000.
He worked as a hired hand when he
first came here-got enough to stock
a farm for himself and since then has
rented.

ITALIANS WIN FIGHT
DECISIVE BATTLE WITH TURKS
FOUGHT AT TRIPoLl.
Enemy Is Driven From Desert After
Capturing oasis-coast Nearly
Is CIeared-losses Heavy.

Tr1poli, Dec. 6.--After a severe bat
tie, in which both sides are reported
to have lost heavily, the Italian forces,
10000 strong, occupied the Turkish
military camp on the oasis of Ain-Zar
near Tripoli. The victory is regarded
as decisive.
Regular Turkish troops, aided by
Arabs, defended the oasis for several
hours, but were forced to fee into the
desert, abandoning eight cannon, many
tents and provisions.
The battle began in the morning
with heavy bombardment by the Ital.
ian feet, under cover of which the
Italian troops advanced to the attack.
From the fact that the battle has
forced the Turks away from the coast
and their base of supplies and from
the GASES around the city, where they
drew sustenance, it is believed a gen,
eral battle cannot much longer be de-
layed.
Berlin, Dec. 6.--The Turkish GOVERN.
ment is confident of winning the war
in Tripoli and is mage determined than
ever to fight, according to Mahmoud
Moukhtar Pasha, former Turkish min,
lister of marine, who is in Berlin
Il am firmly convinced that we ulti,
mateiy will win in Tripoli," he said
THE war may last for years, but am
inclined to believe 1t will be over in a
few months"

WOMEN TURN ELECTION
THROUGH THEIR VOTES SOCIAL
lists LOSE IN LOS ANGELES.
Entire Good Government Ticket Is
Probably Elected by Large
Majorities.

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 6.-Returns
from the municipal election indicate
that Los Angeles women, voting for
the first time since their enfran-
chisement by the state legislature.
have retained in office Mayor George
Alexander and the entire good gov
eminent ticket, by large majorities.
job Hartman, Socialist candidate
for mayor, who polled 10000 votes
at the primaries against 10000 for
Alexander, is probably defeated by
10000. The enormous counterbalance
is attributed to the heavy vote of the
women and the connection of Harri-
man with the Mcnamara case.
The Women's Progressive league
rallied to the appeal of Mayor Alex
ander and put into the field an army
Of 1000 trained workers, captains
and fieusenants of precincts who ex-
erted every effort in bringing out the
entire voting population.
OF the total registration of 5000
votes, 1925 were eliminated, either
for illegal registration, duplication or
other causes.
One of the most notable among the
women voters was Madame Caroline
Severance, the mother of women's
clubs" who is over ninety years of
age. She fulfilled the dreams and
struggles Of nearly three-score years
when, as an enfranchised American
citizen she went to the polls and cast
her first vote.
Los Angeles, Dec. Especial: Par,
tial returns from all but twelve pre-
cincts at I o'clock this morning give
Alexander 51,7O6 and Hartman 81,
S29. At this ratio the total vote es-
timated at 100000 would give Alex,
andra a majority of 10000, the most
overwhelming plurality ever recorded
in city election in California. 1t is
estimated that 10000 of the $4,000
women who registered went to the
polls and that Alexandra got more
than two-thirds of them. The social
list leaders admit the election of Alex.
andra by plurality of at least 20,
600.
