and individual prosperity, as so often
implied, is to overlook the greater
causes of gratitude. Every now and
then pathetic instances bring out the
heartfelt expression that If one has
health he has everything" Position
and possessions count for little COM
pared to the simple retention of
health. So, IL a man or woman today,
unblessed by possession of the wealth
or prosperity they think they ought
to have, will ponder upon the bless
ing of health or upon the preserva-
ton of the lives and health Of those
near and dear to them throughout the
year they must find deeper cause for
thanksgiving than any mere incre.
ment in material things. This is the
true reverence. the genuine spirit of
thanksgiving.
But in expressing this spirit in
Thanksgiving services, in gladness and
feasting. it must not be forgotten that
the true thanksgiving must come from
the heart, and will find its fullest ex-
preston In kindly act, in considera-
ton of those less fortunate and in as.
sisting to make others equally thank
full. The thankfulness that is limited
to self is ungracious and unworthy.
Yet even in temporal affairs the ma
tion as a whole has cause for graft
tude. No country has been more
blessed with abundance of crops In
dustrial and commercial conditions
are normal. We have been spared
from any great disasters. AS a ma
ton We are at peace with the world.
The census shows a splendid
growth. We face the future not only
with confidence but enthusiasm.

First American THANKSGIVING.

We bave come to look upon Thanks s.
giving day as II of feasting and
pleasure. 1t may differ from that Of
u ~graadsires. but it's not so very
far from the customs of the pilgrim
fathers who first instituted the custom
in New England. Did you ever have
an account of the first American
thanksgiving? The P~uritans were &C
customed to somber religious observ-
ances, but the spirit of a new world
began to change the method of giving
thanks. The transition was gradual,
but occasionally the unexpected was
thrust upon them in a cry positive
way.

Next Saturday on State field the
high school will play the second home
games. The contest is to be with
Madison high school who all but de
feated the local team in the first game
of the season, which resulted IN a 7 to
7 tie. Both teams are evenly matched
and a fast and exciting game is ex-
pected. Madison is determined to

by Watertown and judging from past
experience will make the game close

Quite a number of the Madison people
are expected to accompany their team
and urge them on to victory in this

The enthusiastic support that has
been accorded the Brookings high
school thus far this season will doubt
insure an unusually large crowd
at Saturdays game.
Madison promises a surprise to
those who are calculating from COM

Prof. Browning made good his prom.
Use to the football boys when on last
Friday they were royalty entertained
at a six O'Clock dinner at Mr.. Brown
ing's home. The house was prettily
decorated in the high school colors,
red and black, with red roses for table
decorations. The guests assembled by
twos and threes until they numbered
In all twenty-six. The boys talked
over the prospects for the remainder
of the season until Mr.. Browning call
ed signals for formation FEED which
proved an excellent lineup for the
first touch down around the banquet
table. Mrs. Browning and daughters
Ruth and Lenore, acted as the officials
and kept the boys going by a change
OF signals at various intervals. The
second touchdown was made after
Turkey and his lineup had been liter
ally torn to pieces near the close OF
the second quarter, Again the signals
were changed and not until there had
been three more downs made was the
sumptuous five course dinner ended at
which everybody had starred. With

BOARD FIGHTS PLAN
TO RETAIN PASTOR
Trustees OF RyIand N. e.
Church to Offset Petitions by
a Request to Conference.

Members Of the board OF Ryland Meth
odist Episcopal Church, to Offset the Pc
fit.ons circulated in behalf of the pastor,
the Rev. Edward Gallagher. have sent -
the conference, now in session at Cum
bcrland, Nd, q signed request that Nc.
Gallagher be assigned to ano3her pas
toIafe.
Charles W. Bohannon. a member of
the board. said this morning that this
request would be presented to the cab
net OF the conference. composed OF the
bishop and the superintendents of the
several districts.
As an addirional precaution against
the possible return or Mr. Gallagher to
Ryl&nd Church, Mr.. Bohannon SAID that
a member Of the board would go 70
Cumberland prepared to present the case
OF the board.
The petitions which were circulated
by Mr.. Gallaghers friends with a view
to having him sent back to this city
are alleged to bear the signatures of
l6 members and attendants Of Ryland
Church. Mr.. Bohannon, however, as
serted this morning that many Of these
etgners are not connected in any way
with the church. Consequently, he
added. the official board is in no way
concerned over the possibility that the
conference will override its stand and
return Mr.. Gallagher for another year.
When the board was confronted with
the proposition Of acting upon the
question OF asking Mr.. Gallagher to
return, the Rev. Dr.. Whitford L. Nc
Dowell, the district superintendent, ac-
cording to q member of the board, gave
that body assurance that If It would
refrain from embarrassing Mr.. Gallag-
her by an unfavorable vote, he would
