BEST SPIRIT FOR THE TIME.
Good Idea Is That Thanksgiving is tho
NobIest Work That
Man Can Do.

Thanksgiving: The act of rendering
thanks, expressing gratitude for favors
or mercies; public celebration of di.
vine goodness.
Thanksgiving day: A day set apart
for religious services in acknowledge
ment of the divine goodness.
By nature man is religious; and
Thanksgiving day is an annual re-
minder Of this innate tendency. The
very first Thanksgiving and the man
ner of it's observance are not very
well defined in history. Perhaps the
following paragraph will give as. sue
cint an epitome as is possible at this
remote distance:
"The fishermen were ordered to
'scour the seas for SPOIL the hunters
to shoulder their matchlocks and
bring in such game as would allow
the Mayflower colony in more special
manner to rejoice together The re-
suit was supply of wild turkey, deer.
bear and game of every sort in such
abundance as amply to feed the colony
for week. They had as guests the
friendly chief, Massasoit, and 90 of his
Indians. The Indians contributed to
the feast five deer and a great basket
of OYSTERS This was the introduction
of the young colony to its afterward
favorite shellfish, and the women
cooked them as they best knew how.
The menu of that immortal dinner has
not, alas been preserved, but 1t Is
known that the two dishes most fully
appreciated by the Indians as we'll as
the Americans were the brown roast
turkey and the pumpkin pie The
great feast of the week was outdoors,
for the air was balmy and the sun
bright. Massasoit was there in all the
bravery of scarlet coat trimmed with
lace and a copper chain, given him
some time previous by Edward Wins
low. In a strange medley Of Indian
garb and borrowing of European cos
tune. cementing there the bond of
friendship with the white settlers
which held good Al years."
In 1921 Governor Bradford after the
first harvest made provision for the
colonists' rejoicing together with
praise and prayer. In 1923 day of
fasting and prayer in the midst Of
drought was turned into thanksgiving
by the coming Of rain during the pray
ers; gradually the custom prevailed of
appointing annually a thanksgiving
day after harvest. These appoint
ments were made by the governors
proclamations. During the Revolution
ary war a day of national thanksgiv-
ing was annually recommended by con-
gress. For many decades the presi-
dent has annually appointed such a
day and the governors of the various
states have supplemented the same.
Words are but empty things" Since
actions speak louder than words
thanksgiving is the noblest thanksgiv-
ing. To abound in thanksgiving is a
Scriptural injunction. See that ye
do this" said Paul.

BANK CHIEF CUTS SALARIES
Commissioner Pfeiffer Orders Institu
tion to Reduce Expenses.

Denver.-BankerS who were not en-
tirely in sympathy with the new state
banking code, adopted at the last ses-
sion of the Legislature, have, during
the last few weeks, become support
ers of the law which for the first
time made the office Of the. state
banking commissioner one of import
ance and dignity by giving the incum-
bent authority to remedy abuses
which, under the old law, he had no
power to check.
Two instances, in which Commis-
siorer Pfeiffer used his authority for
the benefit of the banking commu-
nifty as well as the safeguarding Of de-
positors, practically have changed
sentiment regarding the new act. In
one of these the commissioner, after
examining a concern in the city, de.
termined that it's expenses were en-
tirely too large, forced the directors
to cut the salary of the president
from 10000 to $4,000 a year and re-
duced the salaries paid to two other
officers from $4,000 to $4,000, respec-
lively, to $1,000 each. In every other
item the bank was in excellent condi.
tion and it's affairs carefully man.

Griffith Forgot His Buckeye.

Just before the Idaho-W S. c. foot
ball game at Moscow on October II :
colored lad in Moscow hunted up Coach
Griffith of Idaho and gave him a buck
eye telling his to carry it in his lefr
hip pocket and he would surely beat
the Pullman team.
Griffith took the buckeye and placed
it in his pocket as per instruction, and
after the game, laughingly exhibited
the charm to Coach Bender of Pullman
and related the history of the pocket
piece.
When Griffith was ready to go on
the field at Eugene last Saturday. he
started hunting for his lucky buckeye
and found that he had left it at home
When the Idaho coach stopped off in
Portland on his way home, he hap
pened to meet Coach Bender of W. S. C.
in the Oregon hotel. Griffith men
tined the fact that one reason why
Oregon had beaten his team was that
he had forgotten his buckeye
Bender reached into his left hip
pocket and offered Griffith another
one, saying, "Here, Griff, try this one

bunch beat my team a week ago, 7

WORD COMING
FROM VATICAN
THE POPE MAY SOON EXPRESS HIS
VIEWS ON THE QUESTION
OF SUFFRAGISM.
Believed the High POntiff is Opposed to
the Movement and His Word Looked
Forward to With Interest.

! ROME, Nov. Pope Plus has just
been asked by large number of lead
ing prelates of the Catholic church fol-
a definite expression of the church s
attitude on the question of woman's
suffrage. High Vatican officials who
today discussed the subject with His
Holiness stated that the ruling of Pope
Plus would unquestionably be against
| the suffragettes. 1t is expected that his
decision in the matter will take the
form of an encyclical letter to prelates
in all parts of the world.
Until very recently it was generally
supposed that Pope Plus had long ago
officially placed the church in opposi-
ton to womans suffrage 1t now de-
velops, however, that as a matter of
fact he has expressed himself on the
subject only once and this IN perfect
ly informal and unofficial way.
Look to the Home.
Three years ago when His Holiness
received a large delegation from the
Union of Catholic Italian Women, he
expressed the desire that they would
confine their efforts entirely to the
home and to the church. and not be led
into the political movement with which
the women of other countries were oc
cupying themselves. This one ex-
preston, together with his well known
opposition to many phases of ''femin- |
ISM" created the impression that the I;
church was Officially opposed to wo-
men suffrage.
The prelates who have now asked |
His Holiness for a definite utterance
have pointed out to him that the lack
of this in the past resulted in great
diversity of position taken by some of
the most prominent prelates of the
church. The late Cardinal Moran, of
Australia, where woman's suffrage is
widely enjoyed, was openly in favor
If it, Cardinal Bourne, of London, has
'ecently been forced to speak on the
subject but contented himself with a
more or less neutral attitude, merely
pointing out that outrage and anarchy

MIGRATORY BIRD PROTECTION
New Federal Law Effective Today and
VIII be Enforced.

WASHINGTON, Nov 1.-Tbe new U
S. laws, which afford protection to mi
gratory birds in every state in the I'm
ion, became effective today These re-
gulations put under federal protection,
for the first time, a large number of
migratory game and insectivorous
birds and thus places federal restric-
lions on the 100000 hunters of the
United States. In enforcing these re-
gulations federal authorities will CO.
operate with state game commissioners
and other state authorities in carrying
out the provisions of the law and to
prevent complications in the local en-
forcement OF the regulations.
The states have been grouped into
thirteen units or districts, each in
charge Of an inspector. Several of
these positions in the west will be fill
ed temporarily by regular experienced
employees of the department The work
of organizing will probably be begun
in the middle states, the northwest and
the Pacific coast. The department ex-
poets to have the assistance of the
game commission deputies IN the states
as well as the public generally and
sportsmen particularly who are inter-
ested in the success of the new law.
Among the birds protected by the
regulations are the brant, wild duck,
goose, swan, cranes of various species, |
quail several kinds of shore birds, pig
con, dove, wild pigeon, bobolink, cat
bird, chickadee, cuckoo, flicker, fly
catcher, grosbeak, humming bird, king
let, martin, meadow lark, night hawk,
oriole, robin, shrink, swal
low, swift, thrush, warbler, whippoor-
will, woodpecker and wren.
The regulations for the enforcement
of the law separate the country into
two zones, known as the breeding and
zones. The former COM
prises twenty-five states, lying wholly

Views Widely Differ.

Cardinal Gibbons, of Baltimore, has

the fight. The archbishop of San Fran

in favor of it. Archbishop Messner, of
Milwaukee, has stated publicly that
while personally convinced that woman
suffrage is not intended by the Creator
for the human race, he could not ad-
vocate that as a doctrine because the
church has not yet expressed itself
upon the question.
