The union Thanksgiving service at
the Congregational church Wednesday
evening was very fittingly carried out,
each pastor In the town having place
on the program. Three selections were
furnished by the Congregational choir,
composed of Mr.. and Mrs. Galen Ram
sey, Mrs. George Park and ]. Willis
Crosby. Two hymns were sung by the
congregation, in addition to the clos
ing hymn, .America."
1t has been decided by the school
board, consisting of Albert L. Davis,
Thomas Smart and Nathan Buchanan,
that hereafter no whistle shall be
blown on stormy days, announcing
no school," Some difficulty in hear
ing the whistle has been found and
the superintendent has been consider
ably bothered on stormy days by peo-
pie telephoning to know if there was
to be a school. 1t is thought that the
parents are the best judges as to
whether or not their children should
go to school during storm and if
they carry an excuse on the following
day they will not be marked absent
Should any children be found on the
street, however, on a stormy day when
they have not attended school, they
will be treated as truants.

have been murdered and millions Of prop
erty coniscatsd or destroyed. Now the
murder Of single British subject has
brought on crisis which has placed the
Wilson Administration in corner. A
Washington special to the Boston Trans
script says:
It is believed here by important men
that President Wilson regards interven-
tion as inevitable and is leaning back
ward in his efforts to preserve peace un-
til that dread step must be taken. Brit
ish insistence upon action in the Benton
case has excited wave of national
humiliation over the willing impotency
of the State Department to protect
American lives and property in Mexico.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
lions was shocked the other day when
Secretary Bryan showed disposition to
waive aside many of the protests which
are pressing upon the State Department
from Mexico, on the ground that they
came ''from men who own land in Mex
ico." According to the impression re-
ceived by tae committee, the only "peo-
Die" whose interest Mr.. Bryan regards
as worthy of consideration are those who

performance Of its functions.
Hoods Sarsaparilla surely

ment of so many diseases and all
ments. 1t acts directly on the
blood, Kidding it Of scrofulous and
other humors.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is a peculiar
combination Of blood-purifying,

stances. There is no ''just as good"
medicine. Get Hoods today and
