Rising To Honor
! National Anthem
+ Originated In 1891

Is Do you know the origin Of the
practice among Americans Of rising
in honor of the national anthemf
This is said to be the way it started:
Senator Burrows, Of Michigan. was
the orator Of the day ct the exercises
Of the graduating class at West Point
in 1891. Toward the close Of his
speech he said:
Soldiers should not be needless Of
the sentiment Of their songs and TO
the music OF their bands. I would
IKE TO zee every true AnAeRie9n sol
dieE or citizen,- when he hears the
grand notes OF our national anthem.
rise to his feet In patriotic reeOgni-
ton and uncover"
4 Almost instantly the band present
ct the graduating exercises began to
play 1.-THE Star SpaMg1ed Banner. and
Col. Wilson, Superintendent Of West
Point, and the entire battalion Of
cadets responded to Senator Bur-
rows's suggestion by springing to
their feet. Their seton was quickly
followed by every civilian in the au-
dience. All stood with bowed heads
until the last note OF the anthem had
been played. snE
It was an impressive sight and at
tracted much public attention. Later
Senator Burrows had this custom
made compulsory at West Point, but
it reQuired~no legislation to make IL
popular throughout the nation.

speaking of letters to soldiers. Cap
tain Pearson says:
''If you have Q relative or friend at
the front, write to him, and do 1t
often. Letters from strangers don't
count, OF course, but the 0thers-no
one can say how much they matter.
'sTIae mOgt terrible part Of the war
was that first winter Of it-the end of
1914, the beginning Of 1915. Dur
ing that first winter OF the war. when
the enemy marched against us with
machine guns and all the modern in
gtruments Of warfare, and we had no
guns, no ammunition, nothing but
sheer strength OF will to go ON, it was
really the letters from home that hello

the h0me-folk expected us to do 1t,
and said 30 in their letters
You may say that this IL all sentl-

who got letters from home regularly,

what kind OF letters should the
home-fOlk write 70 the soldier &C tMe
front? Literary quality isn't the
thing most needful In them, OF
course. Perhaps the best Of them all
art the ones packed full Of little
hOmely details Of the new
neighbcfs across the street, and OF
the words the, baby has learned to
say, and Of how Jimmy II growing
out Of all his clothes. and getting to
look more like his daddy every day

are the letters that are 0ftanest re-
read by the soldier before he goes
over the top, Just commonplace let
ters that tell OF everyday happenings
back home, and Of the love and the
trust that are in keeping for him
there.
Certain other types of letter ought
never to be sent to the men at the
front. One is that written by the sell
fish or thOughtless woman whose
closely written pages are blurred with
her tears, and taken up with her own
sorrow In having her soldier so far
from home, and her plea for him to-
come back at once, since everything
is going wrong without him.
when 1t comes to sending home
boxes to the soldiers overseas, women
should be sure that they send gifts
that are needed, and that won't
spoil en- route. A lot OF junk merely
cutters things up for the soldiers
there. But Q letter Is gift that Is
always timely and never in the way.
Soldiers should be careful to an
swer all the letters they receive and
write an extra one or two now and
then. They should remember that
their relatives are just as anxious, If
not more 80, to hear from them.

Attorneys Not Needed
To Collect Insurance

Secretary McAdoo recently Issued
0 statement warning survivors OF
killed or injured soldiers and sailors
against employing attorneys and
claim agents to collect money from
the Bureau OF War Risk Insurance.
The employment Of outsiders 10 not
necessary, said Mr.. McAd0o, WHIP
strongly condemned the attorneys ai.d
claim agents seeking TO drum up busi-
ness. Their activities In this direc-
ton, he declared, constituted vio,a-
ton Of the law.
"The greed and .avarice of those
who would prey upon the misfortuneo
of the survivors OF gallant American
soldier or sailor who has died for his
country cannot be condemned or rep
rehended too severely" said the
statement from the Secretary Of the
Treasury.
The Treasury Department is anx-
ious to help the relatives Of killed or
injured soldiers and sailors and the
claims can be collected without the
needless expense Of employing attor-
neys or claim agents. Blanks for
filing claims will be promptly fur
nished and every assistance In filing
them ont will be given free by the
government.
Allllon and Quarter Insured
With more than million and a
quarter Of its lighting men insured
for more than ten billion dollars, the
government lie still conducting ener-
getic insurance campaigns through
out the country and win continue to
do 80 until April "a, the new date
fixed by Congress Sof the expiration
of the insurance privilege. Mxtension
OF the date from February IL enabled
q number Of soldiers In the camps
and cantonments to sign up for In
surance and Afforded an opportunity
for men who had taken out small pol
icies to increase them. The change
in date was made primarily for the
benefit OF the members OF the Expe-
dictionary Force now in France and
American soldiers In other distant
places.
For the first time In the history of
the world q nations land fighting
forces are insured, with 9S out OF
every hundred men protected for
about $3.50. Every oflcer and man
in o great many regiments IL insured
for $40, eco apiece.
The insurance written by the gov
eminent on its fighting men Is more
than three times the total amount
carried by any life insurance COM
pany in this country.

BY OUR PRESIDENTS.
Thanksgiving ProcIamations That Have Come From Occupants
 of the White House.

TRESIDENT LINCOLN'S last
 Thanksgiving proclamation, set A for the last Thursday in Novem- for the vision of victory which is in view, but still contains an humble SUD- plication for peace What d glorious Thanksgiving he would have sent over the land had he been spared to issue that which begged Il nations thank of ferings for peace!
 This privilege denied the great Lin coin was granted to the aggressive An drew Johnson and the somewhat cold and hackneyed message he issued up on an occasion so full of cause for gratitude is characteristic of the man. In that message he said:
 "Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God during the year which is now com ing to an end to relieve our beloved country from the fearful scourge of civil war, and, to permit us to secure the blessings of peace, unity and har- mony, with q great enlargement of civil liberty. :. Now, therefore, be 1t l, dent of the United States. do hereby recommend to the people thereof that they do set apart and observe the first Thursday in December next as a day of national thanksgiving to the Crea- tor of the universe for these great de- liverances and blessings
 "The Spansli-American war was of such short duration that it resulted in few proclamations." said librarian at Washington, as he turned the pages of one of his big red volumes to the year 1918. 'EIere is President McKinley's proclamation dated April 26, bearing the simple statement that war exists" The Thanksgiving proclamation for the same year recommended the giving of thanks in the following words:
 "The skies have been for time darkened by the cloud of war, but as we were compelled to take up the sword in the cause of humanity we are permitted to rejoice that the con- fiict has been of short duration. . We may laud and magnify his holy name that the cessation of hostilities came so soon, so as to spare both sides the countless sorrows and disasters that attend protracted war.
 'I do, therefore, invite all my fellow citizens, also those who may be at sea or sojourning in foreign lands as those at home, to set apart and observe Thursday, the 24th day of November. as day of national Thanksgiving"
Judsonia weekly advance., 1918-11-20
OBJECTED TO CUSTOM
Observance of Thanksgiving Was for a Period Not Popular
 in Southern States.

HN the South Thanksgiving day was
 practically unknown until 1853. In
 A- that year Governor Jones of Vir- ginia sent d letter to the state legis- lature urging a recognition of the day that he might issue proclamation Tor it's observance but he was advised that as most Of the citizens of the state regarded this day as "a relic of Puritanic bigotry," he ought not to urge it's observance.
 Two years later Governor Wise, the successor of Jones, without asking ad- vice of the legislature, issued d proc lamaton, and the people, generally throwing aside their prejudice, ob- served the day.
 In the next year, 1858, eight gover- nors of southern states issued procla- nations after the model of New Eng iand calling upon their people to ob- serve the last Thursday in November as day for thanksgiving. But the Civil war was at hand, and the bit terness engendcred in the long contro- versy over slavery caused many vlo- lent opponents of the North to oppose the proclamation, because of the in lroduction. of Yankee custom"
 Undoubtedly our present Thanksgiv- 1 ing day has it's prototype in the Ply mouth thanksgiving festival of 1921. It has been asserted repeatedly that the Plymouth festival was suggested to the Pilgrims by the Jewish Feast Of Ingathering"
 If the Plymouth festival has imme- diate kinship with similar events in the past, it has analogies with the har- vest home of England. The Pilgrims were familiar with the English cele- bration, and many of them no doubt, had participated in it. The dominant mark of each was the joy over the in gathering harvest.
 The chief difference between the two was the want of ceremony at Plymouth that characterized the English festi- val. In some parts of England the merrymaking was around the "Nod- dingsheaf," or "kern baby" and in many places the last load of the har- vest was drawn to the barn in a wagon called the "hoch cart" In front went pipe and tabor, and around it gathered the reapers. men and women, singing ioyously as they proceeded. At Ply mouth there was no ceremony. There was no harvest song so familiar in the fatherland:
 Here's health to the barley now;
 Here's a health to the man Who very well can
 Both harrow and plough and SOW.
