Thought From Jane Addams Which

A mother croons an old-time song as
she tolls. A father speaks kindly az
home from work he crosses the
threshold which leads to wife and rest
from labor. The child-the stepping
stone between mother and father, the
connecting link-hears both song and
gentle word.
The father, still toll stained, wheth-
er he comes from field or shop, stoops
to kiss the mother, also toll stained.
He speaks softly. mayhap:
"Howdy. sweetheart; glad to be
home again"
She turns q sweat-marked face up
to his. In farmhouse or tenement, and
answers:
I'm glad to have you home"
OF all this the child is the witness.
Things Of the world are yet new and
strange to 1t. Mysteries still confront
it. Guiding stars it is searching for.
and 10, in the very greetings of mother
and father, in their own loving atti-
tude toward each other. this unde-
veloped life finds a star.

copper as sources of wealth. Our
grains, wheat, oats, rye, rice and In
dian corn yield us enough to feed our
own people and replenish the exhaus-
ton Of other lands. When the crops
are abundant there is rejoicing from
coast to coast. The farmers have
many things to contend with. Some
times there Is plague of grasshop-
pers or OF locusts, sometimes there ID
drought, and again there are foods.
but, on the whole, from years end to
years end, the soil gives back in d.
vine multiplication the seed which the
human hand has sown. We cannot sit
down at the simplest Thanksgiving din
ner without seeing upon 1t contribu-
tions from every section OF our big re-
public.
AS women and girls are the true
homemakers, 1t is well for them to
take a sincere and intelligent inter-
est in the affairs Of their country. Men
seldom rise higher in goodness, frank
ness and patriotism than the women
whose influence over them tends to
purity, bravery and truth. We ought
to care about the politics Of our coun-
try. When we thank God for peace,
wo ought to be additionally grateful
that the menace of war has been
swept out of sight by the wise lead
ership in our councils Of state. When
we thank God for schools and for free
dom Of speech and an untrammeled
press and good books that are as
plentiful as autumn leaves. we should
again remind ourselves and the chill
dren around US that we owe these
tokens of advanced civilization to our
republican government and to the
goodness and guardian care Of Je-
hovah, who has given US dominion

Another word Inlay be in order.
Why should we compress our Thanks
giving into ono day? Why not be
thankful all the time for the little
things as for the great ones, and
most OF all for the dear ones OF
hearth and home?

Hints on Cooking Eqqs.

Use vessel with straight sides "a
quart measure will do), because 1t Is
easier to keep water up to the desired
temperature than in vessel with
fiaring sides. Have the water boiling
hot. Drop the eggs in and keep the
temperature up to boiling, but do not
let 1t boil Let eggs remain IN the
water eight or ten minutes; the whites
should be jelly-like. not hard. and the
yolk should also be cooked. but not
hard. Cooked in this way. eggs are

Advice to Alpine Climbers.

In the earlier part Of the nineteenth
century many even of those who had
been up Alpine peaks themselves de-
nounced the sport. Regarding the as.
cent Of Mount Blanc, Murray's Hand
book in the year 1893 stated that "all
who have succeeded have advised no
one to attempt It," and nearly 20
years later noted the "remarkabl.
fact that large proportion of thos@
who have made this ascent have been

monuments and buildings that have
been standing for centuries, and still
testify to the past splendor OF the
once imperial city. Crossing the At
lantic and setting foot on the shores
of England, the past greets you on
every hand. You are Immediately
made aware that our friends across
the water are living among old tradi-
tons, while In their ceremonials, as
when king was crowned with his
queen at his side, they are keeping
up the customs and recalling the gran
deur that have been theirs for a thou
sand years.
Over here, In comparison with other
nations on the globs, we are still In
our childhood and can hardly be said
to have more than reached the begin
ming Of our maturity Yet we have
eight million people, and we jostle
when we walk on the street people
who have sought us from the far east,
from the islands of the ocean, from
northern and southern Europe, and.
indeed, from everywhere beneath the
sun. To my mind there is something
wonderful and significant and heart
stirring in the thought that a man Of
our choice IN Washington in the
White House presides as our chief ex-
ecutive over our vast territory and
our mighty mass Of citizens. He sends
out word in November, and 10! the
whole commonwealth listens and
obeys. BY one consent Americans,
native-born and adopted into our
ranks from abroad, cease from bust
ness, observe holiday and thank
God on the last Thursday Of Novem-
Der. Everyone does not go to
church, but the churches are open.
There are services, there Is exquisite
music and eloquent sermons are
preached and the nation is thus up
lifted to a higher plane, and there is
an obvious reminder that we eve
thanks to our Creator and praise to
our Father in heaven.
Another charming feature Of this
peculiarly popular and wholly Amer
lean holiday is the assembling Of fam
lilies around the Thanksgiving dinner
table. Again look back, not over
thousand years. but over very nearly
three hundred and you will see how
significant was the origin OF this
annual jubilee. In 1921 Governor
Bradford Of Massachusetts, issued d
proclamation to the little colony set
ting apart day of Thanksgiving for
the first in-gathering harvests. Should
you ever 60 to Plymouth, Mass, and
stroll through the old graveyard there,
tears would spring to your eyes even
now when you saw by the records ON
the stones that Death was very busy
in reaping the first harvest of life Id
New England. These hardy pioneers
who came to our bleak Atlantic coast
that they might have freedom to wor-
ship God as they chose, were made OF
stun too strong to be .daunted BY
illness, want, famine or death. The
attacks Of hostile Indians in the night
did not turn them from their purpose
of settling in the new country, and
women and men alike were heroic in
their scorn Of peril and their determin-
alton to snatch success from apparent
defeat. The first harvest was scanty.
but they assembled In church and
thanked God for 1t, and In their homes
they sat down to the best dinner they
could provide. The wild turkey fur.
nished the meat for the feast. This
