Our Forefathers worked and
prayed together. Clinging together
and helping one another they
showed the true spirit of Reel
procity. They were as one ideal
family. After the WEAKNESS of
work and cold and starvation one
winter and the work Of planting,
caring for and harvesting the crops
for another winter. they found they
had an abundance for the long
winter months. So that they gath
cred IN prayer and thanksgiving for
the complete winter stores they had,
and for the God-given strength they
had which enabled them during the
pleasant spring. summer and autumn
months to plant and grow and har-
vest this abundance Of goods.
It was this forethoughtedness which
not only made the first Thanksgiving
Day a day for prayer and Ieasting'
and the many Thanksgiving which
have followed, but it laid the very
foundation Of our wonderful America,
and our American people. When one
thinks of the great good this little
band of Puritans accomplished with
little or nothing, it suggests the good
we. who ut-number them by thou
sands. may accomplish by fore
thoughtedness and reciprocity to our
little band Of home folks in our
home town. By buying products
from our own merchants, manufae-
turers. grocers. farmers, business
houses. etc. we create within ourselves
the knowledge that we, each and
every one Of US, may help in a great
or way to make this Southwest truly
great, simply by patrOnizing and
boosting home goods. And in after
years we may reap the harvest OF a
Great and Glorious Southwest, and
we may truly participate in Thanks
giving.

RECEIVERSHIPS
 FOR RAILROADS
Case of the Rock Island Points to Necessity of an Amendment to the Fed cIal Laws Restricting Re- ceiyeISl:ip Proceedings
Especial 10 The Republicany

NASHINGTON. July S.-It is very strongly intimated here as result of the Rcck Island railroad receivership by the interstate commerce commits sion, that at the next session of con gress bill will be introduced. which If enacted, will make impossible the appointment oI receivers of railway property without the sanction of the interstate commerce commission. and without an opportunity for the stock holders. who are the owners of the railroad to be heard on the ques- tion.
 In tre case of the Rock Island it was shown that the receivershtp was precipitated on the demands of men who had no direct ownership in the road and that the stockholders pro tested against this proceeding The spectacular career Of the Rock Island during the past few years, its finan- ciaI troubles and the losses of it's stockholders make it an object of uarticular attention among senators and representatives. It is in this quarter that the new legislation is suggested.
 The purpose of the prospective leg islation. it is explained is to make it
 impossible to have snap judgment taken by any interested parties which may operate to detriment of the majority of the stockholders or credi- tors of railroad. Furthermore. those who have considered this new legislation arc inclined to the belief that there should be embodied in th1s bill a provision which will give the interstate commerce commission pow CT to name the receivers of the pro- perty of q common carrier when it is demonstrated that a receivership is necessary.

LONDON, July S.-The end of the teetotal agitation has caused the all lied trades in the brewing industry 10 issue a circular as an outlet for the satisfaction felt over it.
 "It has not been established" says the circular that drink was more than one minor factor among sev- eraI which contributed to the short age of munitions"
 As regards the agitators, the brew cry workers continue:
 Most reformers command respect: their sincerity and zeal are admir- able. but there is usually a shade of good humored toleration in our at ritude toward them. because the thorough-go reformer always masnifies the dimensions of the evil he seeks to redress. But for the temperance reformer. we can have but the smallest respect, and we be- Heve that recent events indicate that thc majority of the men ignore the iutemperance of the temperancee re- former and reject his testimony"

 WHERE DRU|DS
 FOREGATHEREO
Account of the Worship This Year by the Mod erns Who Repair An nually at Summer Sol stice to Famous Ruins
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1spATcHl

LONDON, July S.-Every year, on June 21, the summer solstice. the So- ciety of Sun Worshippers of Great Britain make a pilgrimage to Stone henge, the most celebrated of Eng lands Druid ruins, to witness the rising of the sun. There were sixty Of these modern druids in the pill grimage this year, led by Dr. Mac Cieregor Reid, who claims to be the chief of the Druids in Europe They were rewarded by a sunrise the like of which has not been seen at Stone henge for over 25 years, for the early morning mist usually has becIouded the rise.
 But this year the sun -worshippers had a perfectly clear morning. The first rays of the sun touched an iso- lated giant stone facing east and threw a shadow upon a recumbent stone outside the existing circle Thence the shadow crept up slowly to the great sacrificial stone in the heart of the ancient temple. As the sun rose still further on the horizon the rays penetrated a space between two monoliths and illuminated the whole surface of the sO-called sacri- ficial stone. This sight is extremely rare, having been witnessed before by only one of the sun worshippers present at this years ceremony
 There was no attempt at public recital of the Druid "confession of faith" but in accordance with the annual custom, pr Reid and his fol- lowers had q clash with the local police. acting as guardians of the stones. One of the Druids was eiec- ted from the circle and another was escorted out of the grounds.
 As soon as the rays of the sun had passed over the sacrificial stone. pr. Reid moved outside the temple and addressed the crowd. His ad- dress was in the usual form, 2 protest against the action of the police and against the owner of the estate in enclosing and charging admission to Stonehenge, to which the modern Druids claim right of acess without payment.
