THANKSGIVING

The balmy air, the sunshine and the
shower,
Each in it's turn its mission hath
fulfilled,
And blest old mother earth and made
her bloom
With flowers and fruits where men
her fields have titled.
Our barns are filled, our orchards
laden down
With golden fruit, abundant and to
spare;
That all may live, nor like for any
good,
Bear witness to a loving Fathers
care.
The ships of other lands bring to our
shore
The choicest products of both land
and sea,
The earth herself gives up her hidden
store,
That all who. can may live in
luxury.
The home, the schoolhouse, and the
church of God,
Unhindered have their duties nobly
To teach the young life's burden to
assume,
And perfect measures by their sires
begun.
No plague or pestilence, no scourge
of war,
Has been allowed to devastate the
land,
But the pursuits of peace and honest
trade,
Have stirred the rivalry of brain
and hand.
For home and fruits, for faith and
fireside;
For social fellowship with those we
love;
For a desire to have an humble
part,
With those who seek the things
that are above.
For all these blessings, manifold and
free,
We render thanks, and still Gods
mercy crave,
That we more worthy Of His love
may be,
And humbly worship Him who came
to save.
-Arnie Hugghins.

About % per cent of the amateurs

says:
Much Of our information concern

anonymous letters. Discharged serv-

which brings results. We get infor-

others boasting Of how easy 1t is to

discharged servants write many

such detailed account Of the purchases
Of jewelry. dresses. trinkets and other
articles that We knew were right in

Nearly all the attempts at SNUG

luxury and extravaganza. They want
to collect souvenirs and presents and
pay NO duties. The plea OF ignorance
Is NO longer an excuse. The matter Of
paying duties Is talked about every
