The display of flags as sign of
patriotic spirit is, of course. eminently
proper. But the neglect of flags after
they have been raised is discreditable.
There are half dozen flags flying in
this city which have been whipped into
ribbons by storms. They are discolored
and draggled and look as if they had
been thru three years war.
Expert opinion seems to place the
weight of blame for high distribution

A Daring Deed.

Joe Barrett has some fine spring pigs
and some cows pastured up near the
Trego mine, awaiting their removal to
the farm. One day not long ago, when
he went to feed them, he found that
one of the pigs had been slaughtered
and carried away. Last week, Monday
evening, lad who lives near there.
came to the Barrett home and told them
some one was molestng the stock.
Mr.. Barrett and some men hurried to
place and found man there, with a
sack, and doing some talking to the
stock. They accosted him, but OF
course he maintained his innocence.
and without actual proof that he was
there for some wrong purpose, it was
impossible to convict him or make auy
arrest. 1t surely was contemplate
act for man to steal other peoples
goods, and if he is the one guilty OF
the former deed, be should be carefully
watched and warned regarding any
future misdeeds. Platteville Journal.

The veteran editor of the Rural New
Yorker, II. W. Colingwood. gives us in
a recent issue of that paper most ex-
cellent line of thought on our coming
Thanksgiving Day. The simlitude he
draws between Thanksgiving during
the Civil War and the present hour in
our nations history is truly suggestiye:
There will be a new note in the cell
ebratlon of Thanksgiving this year. In
these modern times the idea of Thanks
giving has drifted far from its original
purpose. Originally a day of fasting
and prayer, 1t has become time of
feasting and fun. For several years
the Pilgrims at Plymouth had very
little to be thankful for except that
they had saved their lives and held their
feeble place on this continent. Thus
they tasted instead of Toasted until
prosperity came to them and they had
material evidence of divine mercy to be
thankful for. 1t has always seemed
strange to us that this local New Eng
land celebration should have been ac-
cepted by the whole country. That is,
the country has accepted the feasting
and rather boastful character of the
day. 1t is now to be seen whether the
country accepts the sadder and sterner
thought which always underlies the
real New England observance. Many
of us will be reminded this year of the
celebration of Thanksgiving during the
Civil War. No one could be thankful
that war had laid its hand upon the
country, or that death or duty had
taken loved ones away. No one could
be thankful for that, yet in every heart
on lonely mountain farm or in crowd
ed city there was something Of sub
lime JOY in the thought that life could
offer some great sacrifice to the country.
In those days men and women had a
higher conception Of the meaning of
that word country" than is common
today. What this nation needs above
all things is to have that old thought
put back into the hearts Of the common
people. We shall keep up the old spirit
of the day. 1t is no time for the idle
feasting or expensive entertainments,
but there should be the old family re-
unions, the old memories and the
old beautiful voyage back to childhood
with the little ones. In the trying days
that are coming we shall need all the
joy, all the comfort, all the happy
memories that life can give us in the
terrible struggle which lies ahead i"
