THANKSGIVING 0F
 I9l1ITS MEANING
Rev. Warren E. Cook Issues MeS-
 sage to His Church

The following Thanksgiving mes sage was given by Rev. Warren F. Cook at the Trinity Methodist church yesterday:
 Thanksgiving Day is here again How shall we keep it this year? In the past it has been a day of Eeasting, reunion and general rejoicing This year 1t cannot be the same. Members of many families not only will be away, but some never to return. We trust this may not prove true, but we must face the possibility. Among our brothers and sisters across the seas this has already become a stern real ity. Homes and hearts are left with a great naked void filled only with the satisfaction that in their loss a great cause has been saved.
 Tomorrow the experience of these, our brothers and sisters, may be our experience. Indeed, not through battles, but through the more ordinary circumstances of life, many of our people do stand< today in the midst of clouds of grief and disappointmen and, in fact, our whole nation stands in wonderment before the world calamity revealed in the world war. What can Thanks giving Day mean to the nation? What  fered so deeply? It would seem only to heighten grief in the remembrance of the old glad days when peace and prosperity were among us, and when loved ones, Host a While,' were here to make our joy full. For what shall we give thanks?
 Shall we not give thanks, as the president has said in his proclama- 1 ton, for the abundance of our stores ] of food and other materials, which ] are sufficient if carefully used, for us 1 and our allies?
 Shall we not also give thanks for 1 the spirit which prompts us to share, l even to personal sacrifice, with those l who are in need?
 Shall we not give thanks that we l not only are\ready to share our goods l with our needy fellows but that we
 are ready to pledge, and have pledged,
 "our lives, our fortunes and our sa- l cred honor to the cause for which
 they battle?
 Shall we not give thanks for brave ] boys who are eager to sacrifice in the 1 cause of humanity; shall we not give 1 thanks for mothers who, with break
 ing hearts, gladly give these boys in
 the interest of high civilization; shal
 we not give thanks for wives who l stand ready to go through life alone
 and keep the little ones who shal
 never know a fathers care that the
 great principles of liberty and justice
 shall not be swept from the earth
 shall we not give thanks for all mer and ar women, young and old, who 1 are ready to offer themselves, anC
 more than themselves, their deares
 treasures on earth, for God and home
 and native land-yea, more, for al
 lands, especially the weak? And shal
 we not give thanks, above all that {
 great and loving God, our Father, ha:
 put such stuff into us. and has givel
 us such ideals, and assured us tha
 we arc thus working out our man , hood: that right shall ultimately tri , umph and that, until then, we shall b. , sustained in that highest of all satis factions, the performance of higl duty, the faithfulness of high trust These are truly reasons to be thank
 ul, and God will add His blessing t.
 make them real, if we but let Him.

WALL STREET BISHOP QUITS
Famous Street Preacher Placed on Re-
tired List by the Trinity
it,. ,uy.a b.. Corporation.

New York.-"The bishop Of Wall
street" has held his last service In
his Open-air cathedral at the corner Of
Broad and Wall streets, with its pave
ment Of asphalt and it's ceiling Of sky.
In other words, the Rev. DR.. William
Wilkinson, friend Of millionaires and
Office boys in the financial district and
holder Of MONDAY services there for
many years, has been retired by Trim
ity corporation, whose missioner he
has been.
The crowds of rich men and poor
who fill the canyon Of Wall street at
lunch hour will miss the stocky,
white-haired figure who preached the
Gospel in the heart of what the ma
jor part Of the nation has come to
regard as a den of wickedness.
He has enjoyed the reputation Of
being the highest paid street preach
er in the world. From Trinity he re-
ceived a salary of $1,000 a year. No
one will ever know how much of this
"the bishop" expended on himself, but
the poor will tell that he has always
been Open-handed and has never with
held his aid when money was needed
to keep home together.
He was a close friend of the late
J. Pierpont Morgan, who often went
to his house.

SMOKE MORE AND EAT LESS
Latest Advice Given to British People
In the Food Shortage
Situation.

LondOn.-"Smoke more and eat
less!"
This is the latest advice given to
the British people in the food short
age situation. It comes from Sir John
Rees, who says:
1T is to be hoped that the increased
tobacco duty will not reduce the guam
tity. The less people smoke the more
they are liable to eat. It Is we'll known
that the grosSest eaters are nOn.drink-
ers and non-smokers."
This advice refers to women as
we'll as men, for the smoking habit
has spread widely among women since
the war started. Formerly women
smoked only in their homes or in res
taurants. Now they can be seen In
the streets and in factories putting
away at pipes, mild cigars or ciga-
retteS.
Arrests Of women for smoking in
munition factories became so COM
mon that the magistrates had to I'M
pose severe penalties to break 1t up.

Yes, the city boasts a Y. NJ. C. A.,
which means also a public library,

also has a movie show, and foot

mention the officers clubs, and tea
rooms and canteens.
Remember this was all empty coun-

Jehind the German lines. This strag-
Cling boom town has sprung by magic
out of country fields and upon the
ruins of wrecked villages. With all
the permanent, thriving activities OF
