THANKSGIVING.

The coming Thursday will witness the first Thanksgiving this co,iitry has spe'it III state of war for many years This custom originated with the Pilgrims after they had experienced their first abundant harvest, fol lowing hardships and sufferings not exper- fenced by any of us living today, The first Thanksgiving was observed in 1921 It was not celebrated annually but was repeated of ten during the ensuing century. Congress recommended days of Thanksgiving during the Revolution, and in 17S4 for the return of peace, as did Madison in 1915 following the war of 1872 Washington appointed such a day in 17S9 after the adoption of the Constitu ton, and in 1795 for the general benefit and welfare of the nation Since 1863 the Pres- dents have always issued proclamations ap- pointing the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiving Day.
 This year are at war and many think we should observe the day in our homes. The day was not primarily instituted day of feasting but day of thanksgiving. We must not forget that in this year of war with thousands of ouE boys in cantonments. and others Tn active service in France. to render thanks for the blessings that ours tion We may not feast at home but every one should remember the boys and send box of goodies, bag of comfort, a word of cheer, to those that we know and enough for them to share with some chap not quite fortunate

MADE HIT WITH MANSFIELD
Actor Quick to See Good Piece o' "Business" in Error of One of
 His Supporters.

Now that Arnold Daily IS reyiving "Beau Brummell,'' various anec- dotes of the late Richard Mansfield, who created the title role, are being revived. W. J. Ferguson, who acted the valet in the original production and who is now one of the pirates in "TTeasure Island:%. has remembered one.
 In the character of the valet it was Ferguson's place TO hand the Beau his gloves, his stick. and finally his hal. Upon the opening night he prof fered the hat to Mansfield, turned the wrong way around. Had the Beau put on the hat in the way it was handed to him and strolled down Picadilly or Bond street, the faux pas might have created scandal. When Ferguson discovered his error he turned pale under his makeup.
 Mansfield was quick to grasp the situation. and with one of his most conrtly bows gave the hat back to the valet, so that he might turn it around. which Ferguson did with pantomimic apology,
 AS Mansfield put on the hat and passed out of the door le whispered to. Ferguson ''That's good piece of business: keep it in !"

FOOD CONSERVATION AT HOME.

People in the Middle West and the East especially in the smaller towns, are beginning to realize that the government IS Ill earnest about the food program. The idea that the government Is chiefly trying to enforce is to conserve food for the soldiers, and not primari- ly for the home. This Is not understood by the average house wife She is asked to use more fish and game and less meat, not because fish and game are cheaper, but because the meat can be sentabroad with more convenience and Is better food for the soldier She is asked to use substitutes for wheat four, not because the substitutes are necessarily cheaper but because the flour Is needed fer the army and be used with greater convenience there than the substitutes. So it Is with all other articles of food, The substitutes i'll nine cases out of ten are just as costly as the ori- ginal but the army must have the original and the household find something in its stead not needed so greatly by the army.
 Uncle Sam has the g igantic task of feed ing the world. and women of this country must realize that if they do not fall in line, of their own accord on the food proposition, they will be. forced to later. These are not the ideas of the writer but thoughts given out by q government representative who Is lectur1ng on the food 1ueStlon ana Wnom the writer was privileged to hear.
 Many towns through the Middle West are observing wheatlcss and meatless days. A number of them have passed city ordinan ces closing the meat market one day each week and prohibiting the sale of wheat bread one day also. Many restaurants are refus- ing to serve meat wheat i'll any form for one day. 4 travelling man with meat appe- tite insisted upon steak of high quality ii such restaurant in Western Kansas and 1t was served to him for $6 He roared at the

TRANSYLVANIA ELUDED
U-BOAT EARLY IN WAR

NEW. YORK. May "a.
The New York offices Of the Anchor Line
owners OF the liner Pennsylvania, reported
sunk by n submarine. have received no
official reports on the sinking Of the steam
ship, which until May 7. 1915, was one OF
the largest vessels in transatlantic service.
on that date the Pennsylvania sailed from
New York and since has been in the Ad-
miralty service. II Is believed here that the
liner was in use as a transport.
The Pennsylvania was launched Septem-
ber 3, 1914, and arrived I'm New York on her
maiden trip on February 6, 1915.
In addition to being one of the largest
liners in transatlantic service the Transyl-
vania was one of the fastest. Her speed en-
abled her to escape n t-boat during the
early days Of the war This submarine at
tack occurred early in May, 1915, as the
big liner was nearing Glasgow, conveyed by
British men-Of-war. The perisCope of the
submarine was sighted and by steering a
zigzag course the Transylvania escaped. In
December. 1916. two mines Collded within
q few yards OF her bows, while off Fastnet.
The impact was felt on all of the decks
and wild excitement among the passengers

only 5000 in captures by the enemy, General
f. Il. Maurice, Director OF Operations, as
serted today.

were so per cent less than those suffered
by the British in the Soinme battles.
I'm the battle OF Arras," General Maurice
continued. I'VE captured 200 guns from the
enemy and occupied n territory four times
as large as that reclaimed in the waffle Of
the Somme.
We've now got the Germans reduced TO a
state Of nervousness in which they are try
ing 10 build up their morale by claiming
big british losses a places where we never
even attacked.
For instance on May 81 the Germans

was repealed with heavy losses The fact
is that no single British soldier moved in
that section. Whenever we attack we say
so in our communicates
