If the Plymouth festival has imme-
diate kinship with similar events in
the past, 1t has analogies with the Har-
vest Home of England, which may re-
late them. The Pilgrims were famil-
lar with the English celebration, and
many Of them, no doubt, had partici-
pated in it. The dominant mark of
each was the Joy over the ingathering
harvest. In some districts in England,
too. the festival had continued a week.

When Prayers of Thanksgiving
Arise From Hearts of Crate
full Nation.
EMORY J. HAYNES.

~ I'D you ever see the sun rise out
of the ocean? For nearly four
hours the dawn of Thanksgiving
day has been feeling its way westward
across the sea before it breaks on
America Half league onward,
the gray light creeps over the I'M
snhabitable waste of waters. The
new faint light cohorts of outriders
are scouting ahead of the monarch sun.
They are seeking the coast Of Maine,
feeling for the Cape of Hatteras. For
this is to be great day in America.
If the sun were a god, marching
over the Atlantic spaces, one would
put the words in his mouth: sc You
ships on which |. flash, | am not con-
lighthouses, which l now touch with
my spears of sunbars | seek a con-
tinent OF grateful human dwelling, |
gid church spires, burnish the white
walls of great cities, CLEAN in farm
house windows, the homes of men. 1t
Is not a day of toll but of thankful.
Joyous rest / will march over the
vast areas OF mighty states, cross riv-
ers and lakes, climb the Saharas and
beyond, before l slip again into the
Pacific ocean. For this is a day set
apart to me. Men are waiting, out
OF harness, for the sunbeams. | ac-
knowledge their tokens. / make the
American flag beautiful everywhere in
my blue sky, thousands of flags dip
ping to give thanks l do hear the ring
ing of bells, the shouts of play, the
laughter of kinsmen greeting kinsmen,
and the voice of nations prayer"
But the sun is no god. A day is
merely stretch of hours. There is a
Maker of the sun who trains it to be
but the servant of his children. There
is an All-Soeing Eye which views us at
our grateful Offices. Let us try to
think of it that way. Then the day
has a meaning
Thinking of it all in that way, what
sublime day it is. A whole youth
full nation with uplift hands and merry
hearts. This nation has been, at
times, in tears Today it bursts into
laughter and the sounds of thankful
ness-the fragrance of a feast fills
the air. 1t is a very festival of char
ty, when none is proud or selfish
when the poor are not forgotten.
Have you ever watched the clouds
awaking by mists rising by the
advancing sun? What spectacle il
would be il, from a star one could
witness this uprising of sun-touched
vapor from valley to plain across q
continent. So does the nations praise
arise with incense of thanksgiving
Remember that, by this figure, we are
seeking to make our answering ado
ration visible to our minds.
And there is no beauty in sunset
except If there be clouds to take or
the gliding. So may the evening be
of this glad day, for THE Lord God i:
our sun and shield" When the day
is done may heavens blessings, yet
to be sent US, be more than the eve
ming stars for multitude. Stars OF
stars, the light from many a star is 81
distant that it has never yet reached
us. But it is on the way.

Reason for Chance.

81 have been forced to the conclu-
sion that the only effective way to
deal with the liquor question is by and
through the action of the national gov
eminent. l say forced to this con-
clusion, because on general principles
j am very much opposed to the ma
tional government taking over any
work which can be done by and
through and within the states. The
liquor interests have nationalized the
question. and experience shows there
can be no really effective method of
treating it except from a national
standpoint"

league, reported similar pledges from
United States Senators Chamberlain
and Lane and Representative Hawley

CHURCHILL s STORY
ALARMS ENGLAND
BLAMES KITCHENER AND FISHER
FOR FAILURE AT ANTWERP, IN
PACIFIC AND DARDANELLEs.
HOUSE OF COMMONS SPEECH
Declares Every Move Was Blocked by
Expert Advice, and That Situation
in East Demanded Quick Action
Wanted to Send Troops.

London.-Winston Spencer Church
i'll, who has been the most severely
criticized member of the government,
and who has been held personally re-
sponsible for the loss of Rear Admiral
Sir Christopher Cradock's fleet in the
Pacific, the destruction by submarines
of the British cruisers Cressy Hogue
and Aboukir. the Inflated Antwerp ex-
petition, and the initiation of the ma
val attack on the Dardanelles, deliv-
cred speech in his own defense in
the house Of commons Monday, follow
ing the resignation of his post in the
cabinet.

Was Blocked by Experts.

WOu nave IL balu, was MS Ora
matte assertion, referring to the Oar
danelles attack, that this was a
civilian plan foisted by political am
ateur upon reluctant officers and ex-
perts."
This sums up his reply to all critics
In every case he showed that experts
had counseled and concurred before
any of the expeditions which had been
condemned were undertaken, and it
was clear before he had gone far that
the house Of commons sympathized
with him.
For months Mr.. Churchill has lived
under reproaches; his entrance to the
house Monday passed almost unno-
ticed. AS he rose his supporters gave
him encouraging cheers. Appreciation
increased in volume as he answered
one charge after another, and he con-
Guided amid hurricane of applause,
while members of all political parties
crossed the house to congratulate him.
Condemns Lord Fisher.
There was nothing apologize about
the speech of the former first lord of
the admiralty, who some months ago
was transferred to the chancellorship
of the duchy of Lancaster, the office
he has just resigned. His reference to
Admiral Lord Fisher, the former first
sea lord, who, he said, had not openly
opposed the Dardanelles undertaking,
were spoken in firm tones of condem-
nation.
In the opinion of the house Mr..
Shurchill has fully justified every step
he had taken while head Of the ad-
miralty.
AS to the dispatch of Rear Admiral
Cradock's squadron, he said he was in
full agreement with the experts and
advisers of that time-Admiral Prince
Louis of Battenberg and Vice Admiral
Sir Frederick Sturdee-and that the
dispositions were the best that could
be made in the circumstances.
There was no truth in the charge
that he had ordered, against the ad-
vice of experts, the Hogue, Cressy and
Aboukir to remain at sea, where they
were sunk by German submarines. The
Antwerp expedition originated with
Lord Kitchener, the secretary for war.
and the French government, while the
naval attack on the Dardanelles was
deliberately considered and had the full
support of the advisers at homo and
those on the spot.

ACTION OF TRIGGER FINGER
In Its Operation Writer Points Out
How Much II Resembles a
Pocket Knife.

The peculiar action of a trigger
finger resembles that seen when a
pocket knife is opened or shut" writes
DR.. Adoniram B. Judson, in reporting
such a case to the Lancet. Movement
Is smooth till a square shoulder at
the near end of the blade presents an
obstacle which retards motion till a
certain point is reached, which mo-
ton is accelerated with a jerk.
"A counterpart of this obstacle may
be found perhaps in a node on an ar
ticular surface, where it would cause
<he hating action of a trigger finger
In the construction of a knife, how
ever, an important feature is present
which is absent from the anatomy
of the hand, and that is the strong
steel spring concealed in the handle of
the knife. Il produces positive pres
sure between the surfaces composing
the metallic joint. Ii the spring were
absent. or If its place were taken by a
strip of some inert substance like
cork, there would be no jerk, and shut
ting and opening the knife would be
perfectly smooth.
while there is nothing very close
ly resembling a steel spring in the
hand or forearm. still we may find In
muscular action a force which draws
the surfaces together and creates a
pressure comparable with that pro
duced by the steel spring"
