NATION HAS BEEN BLESSED
Multitude of Reasons Why This Year
Gratitude Should Be Widespread
and Fervent.

1t is one of the frailties of human
nature that when all is going well with
us we are apt to be thankless. But
when peril is imminent, when danger
! or death threatens our loved ones, how
quickly and instinctively prayer rises
to the lips and how grateful the
heart returns thanks when the crisis
is passed. So in ether years Thanks
giving has been too frequently ap-
preached with a thoughtless spirit az
differing no whit from the years that
have gone. Not so today when a com.
mon impulse ascribes tangible cause
for thankfulness that, alone among
the great nations, we have been spared
the horror or the menace Of the world
war, that we have been chosen as the
custodians of civilization, the one
hope of despairing nations for a return
to sanity and peace.
For it is not alone that death and
destruction have passed us by. but
that, under Providence and out of his
bounty, we have been enabled to miti
gate the suffering of the wounded, to
succor the starving and help the help
less. More than this, too, that, as we
have kept the light of liberty flaming
for the emancipation of mankind from
ancient thralls, today we are priv
ileged to keep alive the vestal fires on
the altar of peace. Thus honored
above all peoples, held from harm
blessed with natures abundance, and
constituted the guardians and ex-
ponents of progress amid an almost
world-engulfing tide of reaction, we
are thrice blessed and should &c thrice
thankful.

HOMEMADE RUBBER STAMPS.

First of all, you will need some fat
pieces of rubber There are many
sources from which to get these.
Mothers discarded clothesringer has
pair of rollers that can be stripped
of their rubber coverings, or you can
use pieces of a worn-out hot-water
bag, a piece of bicycle or motor
cycle tire, or the inner tube of an au-
tomobile tire. If you can't find any
such pieces of rubber at home, prob
ably some friend can supply you. In
addition to the rubber, you will need
thread spools on which to mount the
rubber.

Three Small Blazes in
City Over ''The Fourth

A total loss of less than $25 was the
extent of damage done in this city yes
terday during the celebration of Inde-
pendence Day. Three small blazes
wer reported to Fire Chief Kinder,
telephone calls to companies in the
city being all that was necessary. No
alarms were sent in.
The first call came to the Hope COM
pany in the afternoon to extinguish a
blaze on the Walnut street bridge,
which, Chief Kinder believes, was
caused by lighted match or cigar.
At 10 o'clock last night the Mount
Pleasant company responded to a call
at 1409 Regina street at the home of
Policeman Biehl to put out small
blaze on the roof caused by a sky
rocket. Shortly after the company
was again called to extinguish a burn

S. Michlovitz. Is North Thirteenth
