Why We Give Thanks.

Thanksgiving to God is fitting, be-
cause we have countless reasons for
it God is our father, and he fills al
our days with blessings. There is new
er a moment when we have not some
thing new for which to praise him.
There is blessing in everything he
does for us and sends to us. We should
be most ungrateful II we did not give
thanks unto God. Prayer should not
be all clamor for new favors. 1t should
be full of recognition Of mercies and
good things. 1t is good. also, to give
thanks, because II makes our own lives
sweeter, truer and more beautiful Joy
is beauty. Praise is comedy. One who
does not give thanks lacks the high
est element of loneliness. Ingratitude
is dark and somber; praise is light and
beautiful. Giving thanks also makes
US greater blessings to others. Prais-
ing people scatter inspiration
wherever they go. They make others
happier, drawer. stronger. Our days
should be full OF praise and song. Then
God will be pleased with our lives and
this world win be made sweeter and
better.-J. r. Miller. ID. ID.

Would Ruin Smith Land.

Representative A. o. Stanley called
on the War Department and took up in
person the fight he instituted several
weeks ago to prevent the diversion Of
the channel of the Ohio river away
from Smithlan6, KY, to the Illinois
side of the Cumberland Island. Mr..
Stanley told the engineer officers Of
the army that this was merely a
scheme of the coal trust to shorten
the channel about two miles In the
1,000-mile stretch from Pittsburg to
Cairo, Notwithstanding the fact that
the change would probably ruin Smith
land as a river landing and seriously
impair all the traffic up and down the
Cumberland river. When Mr. Stanley
was in Livingston county in October
he learned that the government had
begun to tear out the dam that ex-
tends from the head of Cumberland
Island TO the Illinois bank of the Ohio.
Eighty feet of the dam already had
been torn away. If the work had con-
tinued the channel would have taken
its old course on the Illinois side of
the island. In low water boats would
have found it practically impossible to
get in and out of the Cumberland river,
which enters the Ohio on the other
side of the island.

Ballot Box Was Stolen.

Someone broke into the office of
the county clerk of Estill county ac-
cording to reports reaching Frankfort
and stole the ballot box of Riddell pre-
cinct, from which the returns had
not been certified. 1t is reported that
Judge Hugh Riddell, Democratic can
didate for Circuit Judge in the TWEEN
ty-third District, carried this precinct
by 79 votes. Judge Riddell has filed
suit. enjoining the county election
board from certifying the returns from
Estill county to the secretary of state,
as he did in Breathitt county, where
the returns from five precincts, most
Of which he carried, are out. He also
enjoined the secretary of state from
certifying the returns from the district
to the state election board, and en-
joining the latter from Issuing a com
mission. This will place the election
in these two counties in contest before
the court.
