For This We Give Thanks.

Dignity and elevation of style have
marked all the Thanksgiving day pro-
CARNATIONS of our presidents. And in
spite of hard times through which the
nation has passed, there has always
been something for which it might
well give thanks. But it cannot be
denied that there has usually been a
marked degree Of conventionality and
sameness. We have heard chiefly that,
"The pastures are clothed with focks;
the valleys are also covered over with
corn.
Evidently in year such as this has
been through the world, there is mat
ter of more than common import. Am
erican minds think instantly of peace
still preserved amid alarms; American
hearts will not be slow in gratitude
But to one other thing the president
calls our attention that is greater
thing than we are wont to list among

be blessings of the wear:

the blessings Of the year:
1--WE have been able also to perform
duties and exercise privileges of sue
cor and helpfulness. !"
1t is the greatest privilege for which
an individual can give thanks; why
not for a nationa Grateful for peace?
God alone knows how grateful. But
here is thing, and the only thing that
still gives US hope that the dream of
lasting peace is yet to be fulfilled. The
world has run red, but there still have
been those in every nation who cared
most to ease and heal, and our nation
has been privileged to be the greatest
bringer of comfort-the rescuer. In
this we do not exult; for this the presi-
dent says, and we think the people will
be with him, we owe thanks as for our
greatest Observation-Disclosures Journal.

Legal Ethics.

The annual meeting of the American
Bar association always draws together
some very thoughtful men. Their dis
cussions are well worth careful read
ing. Among the addresses delivered to
the recent meeting of this society at
Salt Lake City, was one by Prof. Felix
Frankfurter of the Harvard Law schaal.
This speaker told the assembled law
yers that ga body of law adapted to a
sparsely settled agricultural commun-
ity, has suddenly been confronted with
the task of adjusting itself to a vast
democracy with 30,0O0,00o wage earn
ers and increasing pressure of conflict
ing interests No wonder justice often
miscarries.
The attempt to cope with the infinite
complications of modern business has
made law labyrinth. There are end
less opportunities for technicalities and
delays. A recent maya inc article
states that many corporation attorneys
make it a practice to trap judges into
making errors, which afterward can be
used for the purpose of securing new
trials.
The making of statutes and preced-
ents to adapt law to modern business
needs will be the work Of many years.
In many respects the existing standard
of legal ethics seems to the layman to
be wrong.
The maxim that an attorney is justi-
| fed in using all legal means to secure
the release of client whom he knows
or believes to be guilty, is one of many
principles that seems to the layman to
conceal vital sophistry.
There are many puzzling questions
that need redefnition. For instance,
it may be clear that man owes a per-
fectly just debt. Yet if the debt has
passed beyond the statute of limita-
tions, the lawyers would probably fight
the case, and do their best to save the
client from payment of the debt. It
may be legally right but if the defend
ant escapes payment of just debt,
has not a moral wrong been committed?
There are thousands of cases where it
seems to the layman, as it did to the
speaker who addressed the Bar asso-
citation, that law needs adjustment to
the conditions of modern life.
Some people say lawyers as a class

Kept There Five Weeks by West
Dixon, ILL.,, Man, She Says.
Dixon, ILL.,, Oct. 2S.-Kept solitary
prisoner on desolate island in Rock
River for i've weeks, and with. only
enough to eat to keep body and soul
together, was the fate of an eighteen
year-old girl. She gave her name as
Emma Samerville and says Aurora is
her home.
According to her story she came
to this city five weeks ago from Ro-
chelle with young man who told her
she could get work in the shoe factory.
Here she says she met Fred Pyfer of
West Dixon and he induced her to
take ride in a boat and took her to
Hoyle's Island, west of the city. There,
she says, he has kept her in small
shack on the island for five weeks,
forcing her to dress as boy. Pyfer is
in the Lee county Jail.
