Sam has recently sent out an order to

joke for the city papers and the impe-
cunious space writer's of the dailies
love to portray the tiller of the soil as
a man who never saw much and knows

receipts of the fair would be mighty
slim and he does not make holy show
of himself either, as the writerstry to

the above TO please simple folks like
themselves could not get a living on a

The greatest feast day in America
should be one of rejoicing and thanks
giving by all the people. This is the
time when the whole nation gives
thanks for the blessings of the year.
Thanksgiving Day was first establish
ed in the United States by the Pilgrims
at Plymouth, New England, replacing
Christmas, the great family festival,
and has been gradually adopted in
other parts of the country. Congress
recommended days of thanksgiving an
ndally during the Revolution and
Washington in 1879, after the adoption
of the constitution. Other days of ma
tional thanksgiving have been pro-
claimed, and since 1863 the last Thurs.
day in November has been annually
proclaimed by the president as ma.

Have you noticed that boys will obey
without dispute or hesitation the voice
and commands of their chosen umpire
in game of baseball or football. Why
not settle all disputes that way instead
of by fists or haunting 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 re-
straint, in law and order. II is hap
PLY beco,1ing the fashion for nations
to settle disputes by arbitration, so let
these future citizens and law makers
be beginning their training by giving
as just and impartial trainingHas they

A1berta's minister of agriculture has urged upon the dominion gOvernmen the necessity of taking determined steps to put 8 stop to the depreda- tlons of wild horses in the Peace river country in western Alberta and east ern British Columbia which has been one of the principal pioneering sec tions of this part of Canada during the last few years. He states that wild horses have made raids upon the ranches of new settlers, killing many of the domestic horses and leading away a number of the well bred do- mest1c mares which have been i'm ported at a considerable cost and which are one of the principal assets of the new settler. According to Ottawa sta tisticS these horses are supposed to be descendants of horses abandoned dur ing the gold rush to the Yukon terri tory in 1897-98. From the Bow river westward these animals have raided the ranches of the settlers as far west as KamlOOps and the contractors on the Grand Trunk Pacific railway have suffered losses of imported animals used on the Construction work of the road.
