THAN NKSG WING DAY OF REAL
 REJOICING
Substantial Prosperity of Warren District Causes True Thank fitness; Poor and Unfortunate Are Well Remembered.

This Thanksgiving will indeed be day of great thankfulness through out the Warren District, for prosperi- ty, in the fullest meaning Of the word, is being enjoyed The great copper producing industry. on which the fn- ancial welfare of the community is based. is in the midst of period of successful activity probably not equalled in any other mining camp throughout the world. This condition, of course, spells happiness and con- teatment for the Warren District
 However, as is inevitably the case in any community, no matter how full the measure of it's prosperity, there exist cases of want and suffering, in some instances due to unemployment, in others to sickness or injury Gem erally speaking, the permanent resi- dents of the Warren District are en- toying those blessings naturally ac- cruing from steady employment and good wages. It is chiefly the stranger T ment who has fallen into want through l lack of work Naturally, the word Of the Warren Districts prosperity spread far and wide. the result being that there was a flood of laborers to this community, some of whom could not ind employment
 Miss Esther Cummings, secretary of the Warren District Relief Associa- tion, has been looking after such cases as have been mentioned and finds that the Warren District resi- dents, as well as various organiza- tions, have been prompt in their re- sponse to her calls for help in alleviat- ing the sunerings.

For this reason We are unable to give them the bounti fu repasts which we would like to do, but we are, however. trying tC see that each needy family is made |. glad by receiving some little dainty treat for their holiday dinner. l wist to speak in words of special com mendation of the generous response of the Y w. c. A. and the Y M. C. A 'The season of the year is at hand . when the Mexicans will require cloth ing and, in connection with this sub ject ] want to say that the Mexican
 families of the District show marked
 generosity in giving of their slendei
 means to help the refugees of theil
 own race who have been driven acros , the line from Mexico.

 is dead or alive. the woman does no f know. She always is eager to fnl ,- employment, rather than mere charity e There are many cases of Hines ,. and adverse circumstances not al q tributed to lack of work Then ther e are instances, of which the genera s- public knows little, where We ar s called upon to assist in sending me .t to other places where the prospect e seem brighter for them.
