Declare War on Colds.

A crusade of education which aims
that common colds may become I'M
common within the next generation"
has been begun by prominent New
York physicians. Here is list of the
"donts" which the doctors say will
prevent the annual visitation of the
cold:
Don't sit in a draughty car"
Don't sleep in hot rooms"
Don't avoid the fresh air.
Don't stuff yourself at meal time.
Over eating reduces your resistance"
To which we would add-when you
take a cold get rid of it as quickly as
possible To accomplish that you will
find Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
most excellent. Sold by the Owl Drug
Store.

This raises the question. Wherein
does the hope of the perpetuity of our
nation reside?" Not alone in our
| standing armies and means of defence
much as these mean to us, but rather
| in the invisible presence of the AL
mighty assimilating and Christianizing
our many nationalities into one great
commonwealth. This will be increas-
ingly the great need of the future as
our shores are thronged with aliens
from all lands.
The Chief Corner Stones.
9Th. The chief corner stones of our
nation.
l will venture to mention what
seems to me to be the four corner
stones of our republic. First, the open
Bible, known and read of all men.
Second, the Christian altar of prayer
from which the incense of devotion
rises daily to God Third, the Sabbath
day kept holy. Fourth, our public
school system, with it's open doors
offering a free education to all.
We seem to be built upon this foun-
dation Tear away any one of these
pillars of strength and you will be
that much endanger our national life.
Any influence or power arising within
our borders threatening the destruc-
ton of any of these should be recog-
nized as a national foe and be sup.
pressed.
Let us then as citizens of Chris
tian republic honor and revere the
Holy Bible, keep the fires of devotion
burning brightly upon our affairs; Re
member the Sabbath day to keep it
holy" and throw the safeguards of law
around our public school system, thus
protecting the foundation on which
we rest as a nation.

What of the Future.

Many in our day are asking the ques-
ton which deeply concerns us as
nation ever fall? Shall our great
cities be occupied by alien people?
Shall our soil ever be trodden by the
feet of foreign armies? Shall wars
rise against us and remove the sceptre
of government to other hands?"
We believe not unless He who wept
over Jerusalem shall be compelled to
say to us, your house is left unto
you desolate.''

SPLENDID PROGRAM
THANKSGIVING DAY
Union Services Yesterday Marked Most Important
Feature of Nations Holiday in Moscow-Rev.
Warner Delivered Impressive Address.

Thanksgiving day was generally OBJ
served in Moscow yesterday Practi
cally all business was suspended ant
the day given over to worship and rest
The most important feature of the day
was the union services held yesterday
morning at the Presbyterian church
whore Rev. Hare presided.
The attendance was large and many
expressions Of appreciation were heard
on the splendid program rendered. The
musical program was exceptionally
good and was closed with the singing
of America. Rev. Hare offered prayer
while Rev. Watson, of ST. Marks
church, read the scripture.
Rev. Warner, of the M. q. church,
delivered a splendid address entitled
Some Reasons for Thankfullness. y
1t was so full of good thought and
showed a keen insight of the subject
that 1t is herewith given:
Our nation: Its place as world
power; the principles of government
ON which it was founded; its rapid
growth; great religious development
and II chief corner stones.
We are met together in pursuance
OF a we'll established custom and in
obedience to the call of our chief mag
istrate.
This custom of special Thanksgiving
has long existed. While our modern
Thanksgiving is purely and distinctly
American, yet when reference is made
to the scriptures we see that provision
was made for similar occasion in the
old testament economy known as the
feast of the harvest making the Gus
tom more than 5000 years old.
But it is we'll to remind ourselves
that no well established custom or ex
ecutive proclamation, not even the Di-
vine Sanction can make this day what
It ought to be unless our hearts and
minds are in proper frame for its cele-
bration. We are not to keep it as
mere formal gathering but an occasion
on which to express our profound graf
itude to God.
I am to speak of some reasons we
have as citizens of this great republic
for thanksgiving.
Some Of the Reasons.
1st. The place of our nation as
world power.
The navigation Of the world might
be divided into three great sections,
(a) Mediterranean sea, (b) Atlantic
ocean, (c) Pacific ocean. The history
OF the world has followed about the
same route, dealing first with the ma
lions bordering on and grouped about
the Mediterranean sea- then around
the Atlantic ocean. But the greatest
history is yet to be written and will |
doubtless be written concerning the |
nations bordering on the Pacific.
Our nation is unique. While Europe |
has its Atlantic coast and Asia it's Pa
cific, we have both Atlantic and Paci-
nc and stretch from ocean to ocean.
Dramatically we are in the Temperate
zone which gives to it's people the most
energetic characters.
Not nation on earth which can
hopefully compete with us for first
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1913-11-28

to be that we might form here a great
commonwealth into which may be ce-
mented the nations of the earth into
| too scattered to gather har self to-
one great Christian brotherhood. Mr.
Gladstone said of the United States,
You have the base Of the greatest con-
| tinuous empire ever established by
| man.
| 3rd. The rapid growth of our nation
| This is another reason for thankful
ness. But in order justly to appreci-
ate this cause for thankfulness we
shall need to transport ourselves in
wheel of time backward less than three
centuries, and visit the little village of
Plymouth where was held the first
| Thanksgiving day on American soil.
We would see a little rude village
consisting of about score of roughly
constructed log huts and one little
street. There in the center or heart
Of the village was a log cabin with a
canaan in front, well known by all as
the residence of Gov. Bradford. There
on the hill low fiat-roofed building
they all loved-the church of God.
Far From Home.
If we briefly contrast our condition
with theirs we will see how much we
have to be thankful for. Here they
were on the border of a vast wilder
ness. Their childhood homes, the tenn
pies as we'll as the graves of their
fathers we're far away. The great At
lantic rolled between them and their
former happy homes, while the cry of
the wild beasts, the presence of the
savage tribes, the roar of the storms
that swept the Atlantic would forcibly
remind them of what they had sacri-
feed for conscience sake.
So many difficulties and privations
had attended them they were almost
discouraged and tempted to return.
They had appointed day for special
fasting and prayer, but the scene grew
more and more melancholy, until one
arose and suggested they have a day
of special thanksgiving for what they
had already received, though it seemed
so very little.
Birth Of Thanksgiving.
The whole scene changed The
morning of the day arrived and at sun
rise the cannon from before the gov
errors residence doomed forth the
proclamation to keep day of special
to God. Later the sound
of music and drum announced the time
for Diyine worship and all assembled
at the log church to hear a sermon
two hours long by the good Elder
Brewster. Then came the dinner after
which the cry of Indians was heard |
and they came bringing game enough |
and the feast continued for several |
days.
From this first celebration the Gus
tom has grown to be universal. That |
little handful of people with those who |
have come to our shores has grown

There was a very weak tone in the
sheep trade at North Portland for the
day. Heavy supplies are being carried
over from day to day owing to the
lack of appreciation among the big
buyers. Local interests are scarcely
looking at the sheep market at this
time, practically all the recent sales
in the mutton market being for Brit
ish Columbia account Local inter-
ests have been buyers OF a few lambs
but that has been about the extent of
their deals in the mutton pens.
Sales of sheep are being made at
lower prices. This is especially true
of the poor quality offerings although
the pressure is severe for everything
in this line.
North Portland nominal mutton
price range:
Spring lambs .......... $500 a 6. 10
Year,ing lambs ....... 5.5O@ 40
Old wethers .....,..... b.25 a sou
| Ordinary ewes .....,.... 4oOm f.2o
| Fancy ewes ......... 4.50@ 800
Cattle Market Is Nominal.
With the exception of some cattle
that came to an allied corporation OF
a local meat company today, there
were practically no new supplies OF
cattle in the yards today.
