In EVERYTHING
GIVE THANKS
knowledge of Gods Love
and Power Is the Supre-
me Cause for Thanks
Giving on next
Thursday

Abundant harvests. nationa
prosperity, peace and security
under a government of our own
choice-these are certainly grounds
for thanksgiving in which every
citizen can and should take part.
But it is quite possible-in fact
it is a common mistake-to ac-
centuate these and other out
ward blessings in such a such
a way as to make it appear as if,
without them, we would as a ma
tion have little or no ground for
thanksgiving; whereas the
strongest reason for universal
thanksgiving would still remain
if none of these were present.
The knowledge that God loves
the world, that he reigns supre-
me and controls all forces, and is
overruling all events to the ulti-
mate overthrow of everything
that is evil and establishment of
absolute righteousness is
the supreme cause for thanks
giving in as far as the things of
of this world are concerned.
But national thanksgiving can
never be anything more than a
hollow sham unless the hearts of
the worshipers are warmed by
personal gratitude to God for his
personal love and care and pro-.
lection, and for the precious and
exceeding great promises which
he has given us. No heart can
be truly grateful to God that has
not learned to trust God and to
see his hand and his love in all
the experiences of life.

TAX AMENDMENT
OF IMPORTANCE
Senator c. B. Woods, Auth
or of Amendment Car
ried by Strong
Vote

One of the most important
matters approved by Arizona
voters at the polls Tuesday was
the tax amendment which, from
all appearances, carried by a
strong vote. Senator C. B.
Woods was the author of this
amendment.
Wood introduced the amend
ment in the senate at the last
session of the state legislature.
1t was adopted and submitted to
the people.
The new tax amendment will
take the question of taxation out
of the hands of the board of su-
pervisors of the various counties
and place it in the hands of the
state tax commission. Under
the present system there is no
opportunity to pass an equitable,
just and falr taxation bill.
The amendment provides that
the methods of taxation shall be
as provided by law and abolishes
certain restrictions under the
old form. Itgives the legislature
power to pass the best of taxa
tion laws, something that the old
legislature could not do as the
the constitution stood.
The new amendment does
away with any chance of a re-
petition of the United Verde
muddle. Senator Wood is to be
congratulated upon introducing
such an excellent amendment.

Children Kindness Catching


On the playground fence in a
nearby village a teacher put a
cake for the birds, telling her
pupils of their usefulness and in
telligence, and the wrong of in
juring them. Next day her most
unruly boy ate only half his lunch
and put the other half on the
fence. Kindness is contagious
and example is powerful That
fence is now the favorite perch
of many birds even when the
yard is filled with noisy boys,
and the unruly boy has changed
for the better. Surely those
boys will all be nobler men and
better citizens for the tuition of
such a teacher.
While every child should be
intellectually educated, it is GER
tain that education of the heart
is even more essential to the
welfare of society and to indi-
vidual happiness, and children
are entitled to both.
A noted American has said:
''The spirit of cruelty is the dead
liest enemy to a high civilization, "
and Humboldt said cruelty to
animals is a characteristic vice
of a vulgar people. =" AS all
crime is cruel, to abolish cruelty
is to abolish crime.

enough to write his name, is
made member of the army for
the prevention of all the old evils
