Have you noticed that boys will
obey without dispute or hesitation
the voice and commands of their
chosen umpire in a game of base
ball or football. Why not settle all
disputes that way instead of by
fists or tunting words? Boys, who
are in constant association, as in
schools or workshops, might take
turns being umpire by the day. 1t
would be valuable training in self
restraint, in law and order It is
happily becoming the fashion for
nations to settle disputes by arbitra-
ton, so let these future citizens and
law makers be beginning their train
ing by giving as just and impartial
training as they are capable Of form

There are holidays and holidays.
Christmas and New Years are cosmo-
pOlitan-are the property of no par
ticular people, but yet are joyously
observed by many. But ThanksgiV-
ing is purely an American holiday,
original in conception and growing
from small beginning until it has
reached the dignity of a national
event. It's first celebration was by
the Plymouth colony in 1621-those
sturdy pioneers whose piety was as
pronounced as their pluck, who hon
ored themselves by honOring their
Deity. The custom soon became
more general, spreading all over the
New England states. After the revo-
luton it gradually extended to the
middle states and later into west,
growing more slowly in the south.
In 1868 the patriotic Lincoln forever
established it in the list of holidays
by proclaiming a day of Thanksgivin
His action being promptly followed
by the individual proclamations Of

named the same day. Since then, by
common consent the first announce
ment of the day is found in the
Presidents Proclamation, and the
day so named is also named by the
states.
