THE FIRST
THANKSGIVING
By T. c. Harbaugh

Long ago the Pilgrim Fathers
In the forests cold and gray,
With the tempests roaring
round them,
Kept the first Thanksgiving
Day:
Near their homes the war.
Whoop sounded,
But they needed not the cry,
As they knelt with prayer and
anthem
Meath the dark and stormy
sky.
Fleeing far from foul oppres.

Unto Freedoms land they
Where they raised their holy
affairs
Burning lDith a sacred flame;
And they taught their gentle
children,
mid the dashing of the spray,
To ioUing keep and beautiful,
Every year, Thanksgiving
Doy.
In the dim aisles of the forest,
Where the oaks their
branches spread,
The Uiid deer and the ponthe,
Heard the words the Pill
grins said;
And the hymns that Hoated
skyWard
Echoed s.Deetly far aWay,
Till the dusk, descending
SOFTLY,
Crovned the first Thanks
giving Day.
They lyere stern, those grand
old Pilgrims,
Men Who harked to Free
don1s CALL
And amid the snows Of
Plymouth
Kept the Day beloved by all;
In the bleak NeU ENGLAND
Woodlands,
Lit by Autumn's fleeing ray,
To Coiunbia's chosen children
There they gaue 7 Thanksgiving
Day.
We hold it s.Deet and holy still
From lDhere the pine trees
groU
To lOhere the golden orange
sIDings
In lands deuoid of snoU;
From the rocks of proud
Atlantic,
Where the tempest filings
les spray,
To the sun-kissed, mild Pacific
Millions Keep Thanksgiving
Day.
Blessings on the Pilgrim
Fathers!
They rDho sought a home afar,
And builded them an altar
In the beams of Freedom's
star;
Let their memories be sacred,
Though their graves are far
0lUdy,
For the legacy they left us
Il our first7hanksgiUing Day.

School Reception Best Yet

The reception given by the Board
of Education and former Lamar teach
ers to the new teachers was well at
tended, splendid program was given
and the purpose of the meeting was
well carried out. There are twenty
four ex-Lamar school teachers living
in Lamar at this time and they showed
a very commendable interest in the
success of the reception. Mr.. Herschel
Horn, secretary of the Board of Edu-
cation, introduced Mayor Cook, who
welcomed the new teachers on behalf
of the city. Mr.. Cook spoke of the
ethical value of the schools and add
ed some interesting data as to their
commercial value to the community.
He stated that the Lamar schools had
been more effective than any other one
instrumentality in bringing to Lamar
the best class of citizens from adjac-
ent communities. He welcomed the
teachers on behalf of the town, and
wished them a successful and pleas
ant year in Lamar, assuring them the
hearty cooperation of the city in all
their work.
Mrs. D. C. Polhemus welcomed the
teachers on behalf of the women's
clubs of Lamar. The women's organ
izations are interested in the work of
the schools and are glad to cooperate.
Mr.. T. ]. Sayler welcomed the teach
ers on behalf of the Lamar CONNER
cial club. Although handicapped by
lack of time, Mr.. Sayler, in charac-
teristic address, handed over the keys
to the good will Of the commercial in
terests of Lamar, and in happy way
gave the backing of the commercial
club for a successful and pleasant

In the Lincoln school the beginners at
tend in the morning and the advanced
pupils in the afternoon. In the Cen
trail school hall the pupils Of each
class attend in the forenoon, the other
half in the afternoon. 1t is believed
that pupils will make better progress

Mr.. S. D. Church, for the board Of
education, welcomed the teachers to
their new work and to their new
home in Lamar, assured them of the
interest of the board in their success
in the schools and urged upon them an
interest in the community life as well
as in the work of the school.
Excellent music was rendered dur
ing the program by Mr.. Roy Holbert,
Mr. Jess Rose, Misses Manbeck and
Bent, Miss Everett and by the city
orchestra. Refreshments were served
by the wives of the members of the
board and by representatives of the
former teachers of Lamar. The re-
ception helped teachers and patrons
to get acquainted, and made a very
pleasant beginning for the new teach
ers. The cordial relations begun in
this initial meeting cannot help being
beneficial to the schools.

SCHOOL NOTES
Schools Will Have Exhibits at Fair

The city schools made no prepara-
ton for a fair exhibit last year be-
cause of the announcement that there
would be no fair in 1915. A selection
of pupils work is being made and
first class school exhibit is assured in
spite of the brief notice given. The
fair management is offering three sets
of premiums this year, one set FOR
schools in third class districts, an
other set for schools in second class
districts, and a third set for schools
in first class districts. County super
intendent Mary Q. Lake is superinten-
dent of school exhibits and it is ex-
pected that there will be good dis
play of school work from the schools
throughout the county.
City Schools Will Close
The city schools will close Tuesday
afternoon and on Wednesday after
noon of fair week in order that the
students and teachers may attend the

Boots for Russian Troops.

BY the end of October. the Jill re-
ports, 100000 pairs of boots had been
exported from Japan to Russia, and it
further reports that a contract has
been signed calling for the delivery of
from $4,000 to 1000 pairs a month
until the cessation of hostilities. The
contract price was not made public,
but it is generally assumed to be S425.-
900 for 100, 900 pairs. Japan's capacity
for the manufacture of boots is such
that it will probably have no difficulty
in filling the order.

statement that an order for munitions
of war worth SS.500,000 has been
placed with an Osaka merchant, but
no details Of the nature of the supplies
are given.

war order for $500, 900 yards of wooden
cloth valued at 5000. 600. 1t emarks

In the meantime may [ make this sug-

an exceedingly serious and pressing one
iii this country, There has from time to
time of late been reason to fear that our
railroads would not much longer be able

it would be wise to provide for a commits
sion of inquiry to ascertain by q thorough
canvass of the whole question whether

might be in the solution of the problem.
1t is obviously q problem that. hes at tho
people, Such an inquiry ought to draw
out every circumstance and opinion

any backward step. The regulation of
the railways of the country by federal
commission has had admirable results
and has fully justified the hopes and ex-
pectations of those by whom the policy
of regulation was originally proposed.
The question is not what should we UNI
do? 1t is, whether there is anything else
we can do that would supply US with ef-
fective means, in the very process of reg
%ulat,on, for lettering the conditions UNI
der which the railroads are operated and
for making them more useful servants Of
the country as a whole. It seems to me
that It might be the part OF wisdom,
therefore, before further legislation in
this field is attempted, to look at the
whole problem of coordination and eff
cheney in the full light of a fresh assess
ment of circumstance and opinion, as a
guide to dealing with the several parts
CT it.
For what we are seeking now, what in
my mind is the single thohoht of this
message, is national efficiency and secur-
ity. We serve a great nation. We should
serve it in the spirit of It's peculiar genius.
1t is the genius of common men for self
government, industry, justice, liberty ard
peace We should see to it that it lacks
no instrument. no facility or v:gor of law,
to make 1t sufficient to play its part with
energy, safety and assured success. In
this we are no partisans but heraids and
