BEST SPIRIT FOR THE TIME
oeed Idea % That Thanksgiving u the
Nobleet Work That
Man Can %.

Thanksgiving: The act Of rendering
thanks, expressing gratitude for favor0
or mercies; q public celebration Of d.
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-
hinder Of this innate tendency. The
very first Thanksgiving and the a
ner Of its observance are not very
we'll defined in history. Perhaps the
following paragraph will give as sue
clint an epitome Al is possible at this
remote distance:
1.-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 q more special
manner to rejoice together The re-
suit was a supply OF wild turkey. deer.
bear and game of every sort In such
abundance as amply to feed the colony
for a week. They had as guests the
friendly chief, Massasoit, and 80 Of his
Indians. The Indians contributed to
the feast five deer and q great basket
Of oysters This was the introduction
Of the young colony to its afterward
favorite shellish, and the women
cooked them as they best knew how.
The menu Of that immortal dinner has
not, alas been preserved. but It IL
known that the two dishes most fully
appreciated by the Indians as well Al
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 a scarlet coat trimmed with
lace and a copper chain, given him
some time previous by Edward Wins
low. In q strange medley of Indian
garb and q borrowing Of European cos
tune, cementing there the bond OF
friendship with the white settlers
which held good II years."
In 1921 Governor Bradford after the
first harvest made provision for the
colonists' rejoicing together with
praise n prayer. In 1923 q 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
airy war a day Of national ~thanksgiv-
ing was annually recommended by con.
gress. For many decades the presi-
dent has annually appointed such q
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 q
Scriptural Injunction. "See that ye
do this" said Paul.

grounds for rejection were the use of
coal tar coloring products and incor-

tiers and other public buildings are
warned to informed themselves Oh the
new building inspection law. as Frary
declares that but few such buildings
have been found to comply fully with
the law. All are now required to be
operated under a license from the
state treasurer, and these will not be
issued unless the buildings comply
strictly with the law. The law pro-
hibiting the use of roller towels and
requiring the licensing of hotels, room
ing houses and restaurants was de-
clared in the report to be generally
observed.

The TARIFF BILL.

The new tariff bill which has
been engaging the attention OF
Congress for many months will
be in operation within a short
time. It's general provisions
have been foreshadowed since
the Democratic. party assumed
power and the business inter-
ests of the country are in meas
ure prepared for the changed
conditions which will come.
The party has made good its
pledge to revise, and to revise
downward, and this is what
seemed to be the desire of a de-
cided majority of the people of
the country. If it meets the
expectation of its friends in re-
ducing the costs of living, and
tightening the burdens of the
consumer, the great mass of la
boring people, it will be cause
for general congratulation for
the greatest good to the greatest
number should be the leading
consideration in legislation.
If this result is accomplished,
all alike, irrespective of party,
share its benefits.
A feature which will commend
it to the people at large, is that
it requires the wealth of the
country to bear a share of the
burdens of the government, as
the income of the wealthy must
now contribute to its support.
AS it is one of the ends Of gov
eminent to protect property, it
is nothing but right, that the
arm of government in taxation
should reach out to the owners of
property, and exact from them
their due proportion. This the
tariff bill seeks to accomplish by
the income tax provision.
This is an innovation in the
way of legislation, and, as we
conceive, it is a measure of real
reform, and a long step on the
line of progress.

A sUGGESTIONlABOUT ROADS.

The people of the county should
extend cheerful cooperation in
the effortIto improve the roads
of the county. No plan of work
ing them can show great results
in a day or week. 1t is some
thing that can be accomplished
.only gradually with the means at
hand, but with a fixed system,
and a united sentimen mt and
effort, conditions can be vastly
improved.
The work should be done &C
cording to fixed plan with uni
ty of purpose in all parts of the
county. and not at hap-hazard,
as is too often the case.
To this end we should back
up" our engineer in all efforts to
get US out OF the mud and give
us better grades. Give him 2
chance to show what he can do,
and let's help him!
