Thanksgiving.

Another year of prosperity has
rolled round, and once more we,
as a Christian people, are privileged
TO offer thanks in body. And
such joyous day as tomorrow
should be-even if turkey should
soar above the clouds-let not your
hearts be troubled, for the MAORI
ty of us possess few chickens, and
with this these, together with cram
berry sauce, and pumpkin pie, we
can enjoy ourselves as well as our
richer brothers and sisters. 1t Is
quite evident that people pay as
much attention to the thoughts OF
a sumptuous dinner for this
occasion as the same folks do
to giving on Christmas Day.
The real meaning of both these
celebrations is so often lost
in our desire to plan elaborate
meals, and in our endeavors to be-
stow upon our friends exquisite
presents.
How far have we erred from the
original Thanksgiving Day, and
how much more have we to be
thankful for than our pioneer fore
fathers. We need no guards to
protect us from the savage Indians,
and no one to fight off the wild
beasts. Our day passes by without
molestation, and yet the greater
portion of our population sits idly
a. home and makes no effort to at
tend a meeting of thanks.
This has been ar excellent year.
Especially should our farmers feel
gratified, for this has been an ex-
cellent time for the agriculturist,
who has been given such bountiful
crops. The laboring man, also, has
not been sighted, for there is plen-
IT, of work for energetic and indus
trious men. The election of a
fearless man for President of our
country gives promise of greater
prosperity for 1913, and lastly, let
all the maidens be thankful for
Leap Year, and continue to take
advantage of it.

40 Electrical E|Opement.

We got this story by wireless. 1t
filtered to us from the Telefunken
Wireless Telegraph Co. of the Unit
ed States by way of the Croker
Wheeler Co., of Ampere, N. j., who
supplied the generators which gene
rated the sparks which misled the
angry parent and saved an clipping
couple bad half hour. The cou-
pie (the names didn't filter with
the rest of the story got on boat
for Philadelphia, where they ex-
pected to be married. The girls
father got on to the fact that they
were on the boat, but too late to
prevent them from sailing. But the
young man was resourceful. He
looked up the wireless operator and
told him his story.
He suspects where we are" he
concluded, land will meet us at
the dock and throw me overheard,
which will annoy my fiancee, and
bring unpleasant notoriety to your
boat"
what do you want me to do
about it," asked the wireless op-
orator, alphabetically.
81 want you to speak to friend
on the Boston boat, and just ask
him to wireless for forgiveness and
sign my name"
What good will that do?"
what good will it dol" Why, the
old man will meet the other boat"
In a few minutes long sparks
were leaping through the darkened
air of the wireless room, while the
generators purred contentedly be-
tween decks. Did the irate father
purr ccntentedly when he met the
Boston boat? He did not.

The Teachers Institute.

More than one hundred Of the
teachers of the white schools of
Dorchester county met today at
the Seminary for the purpose OF
holding the first Institute of the
year.
After the Introductory exercises,
the teachers were divided in three
groups, classified as the Primary,
Intermediate and High School De-
partments, and so satisfactorily did
this method work that in the fu-
ture the plan will be continued.
There will be game of foot
ball at the New Athletic Park to-
morrow (Thanksgiving) morning, be-
tween the All Stars and the Cam
bridge High School. for the cham

AS A WOMAN DRESSES.

"Woman's power Of resistance is
much stronger than that of a man"
81 have always thought it was the
other way"
"No, sir. Suppose that the wealth
er is very cold-that the mercury is
away down near zero. A man puts
on a pair of stockings that are as
thin as the gauze which appears on
the grass on a dewy morning. Then
he sticks his feet into a pair of shoes
that barely cover the soles of his
feet, leaving his insteps and ankles
exposed. Let us suppose that his
trousers are so short that they reach
only a little more than half way
from his knees to his ankles. Do you
imagine that a big, warm mutf into
which he may thrust his hands will
save him from pneumonia or enable
him to be perfectly comfortable?

err Severe Criticism Of the
Modern Young Woman,

The self-centeredness Of the mod
ern young woman is annoying and
u~nattractive to the older women who
have been trained to show interest in
the people with whom they come in
contact.
In other days it was not consid-
cred good manners for a young girl
to be uninterested and Indifferent to
what her elders said of her, but now
adays she does not even strive to dis
guise her lack of interest and her
air of absolute boredom is an affront
against good taste and breeding.
She frequently maintains an abb
sorbed silence when not with her in
innate set of young friends, or else
answers in such a careless and in
different manner that older women
hesitate to draw her into converse
ton.
What has become of the young girl
who was always sweet and agreeable
to older persons, who used her pref.
test manner and most charming
smile when talking to them? Surell

Suddenly he notices a weight

his agony he fears the worst.

by the fact that the child is consti-
