ENDORSED BY THE CLERGY

The Ministers conference of Al
exandria has decided to heartily en-
dorse the recommendation made by
the police commissioners, requesting
the Common Council to enact cur
few law for the city, and this morn
ing asked that the Gazette also ad-
vocate such action to the fullest en-
tent.
The position taken in the matter
by the Gazette was clearly stated in
an editorial which appeared in yes
terday's edition, and the editor is
gratified to know that it meets with
the approval and endorsement of the
clergymen of the city.
There should be no hesitancy on
the part of the city fathers in plac-
ing an ordinance Of the character re-
ferred to upon the statute books at
the earliest possible opportunity, and
we feel confident that it will be done.
AS stated yesterday, the law can
not do harm to anyone, and it might
prove Of great benefit to a large
number.

WORTH TEN TIMES THEIR COST

Said well known business man
of the city this morning, addressing
the editor of the Gazette: "You can
tell the readers of the Gazette that
you know of one man in the city who
says those revival services which
you spoke of in your editorial yes
terday were worth ten times what
they cost.
Continuing the conversation the
gentleman related the experience Of
a relative whose life has been
changed and made better as a result
of the good influences which were
brought to bear upon him through
attendance at the revival services.
There are doubtless many other
similar instances that might be cited

THANKSGIVING DAY

President Wilson has designated
Thursday, the Both day of the present
month, as day of Thanksgiving
and prayer throughout the United
States.
We always have much for which
to be thankful, but at this time our
blessings are OVERLOOKING. We are
enjoying peace and prosperity and
immunity from the distress which
prevails elsewhere. A contemporary
in referring to the Presidents proc
lamation truly says:
We have a great deal to be thank
full for. The vote for President VII
son was largely a Thanksgiving vote.
We ought to be very happy that we
are Americans that we are not
Belgium held in chains, not France
drenched in blood, not Germany and
Austria fighting for lfo, not Poland
ravished and starving, not Serbia
laid waste by plague and sword, not
Roumania trembling at the threat OF
similar fate. not even England
mourning fer hundreds OF thousands
of her sons who shall never return
Thanksgiving is essentially an
American. day, a day which recog-
nizes no difference in creed OF party,
day on which the country should
be reunited as one big family.

There would be no need of curfeB

obtaining their majority follow in the
footsteps of the prodigal son, and
snend their means with women OF

have extracted the last penny from

the theme of w. E. Edgin, of Wash

ing tonight, at 8 o'clock. The de-
livery Of this address in the wake of
the recent revival in Alexandria is
opportunc, and Mr.. Edgin should be
greeted with large audience.
The young should receive all the
attention possible, for according to
an OLD provcrb, GAS the twig is bent
the trec is inclined. .Gypsv Smith in
one-ofsaiS discourscs in this city told
of instances where, young people, in
the hour of death, had placed the
blame of their undoing upon those
whose duty it was to place them in
the proper avenues OF life and set
them an example. 1t is terrible to
think that some offspring may rise
up in the judgment and condemn their
own parents,
