THANKSGIVING

Never before in the history of the
nation has Thanksgiving day dawned
when we rs nation or as indivi-
duals, had more to be thankful for
than this year. following the Gus
tom Of our forefathers, who, inspired
BY the fear of God and in a spirit Of
thanksgiving for. the bountiful har-
vests which He made possible in the
early history of the nation, we have
annually set aside one day for
thanksgiving for the many blessings
which we enjoy.
AS time passes and fuller under
standing of the facts which history
tells is had, it is impossible to over
hook the spirit with which Thanks
giving is celebrated today and the
Christian simplicity with which the
day was observed by our ancestors.
The world war has been a mighty
factor in bringing us all closer to the
realization that as nation we have
indeed been blessed with many good
things and has humbled our spirits,
Both through the loss of dear ones
and through the preservation of
others just as DEAR to the level
where il is but natural that a prayer
Of thanksgiving is unconsciously
Uttered.
While we are thinking of our

Harry Frazee to sell the Boston Red
Sox. according to Charles A.
Comiskey. The old Roman came to
bat strong for Frazee. Comiskey
was caught in the mood and pro-
ceeded to hand out one of the real
jolts Of the year in the base ball on
season Of surprises and upsets.
Il have attended every meeting in

nave never known him at any time
to take an end in an argument except
one that would benefit the game.
The subterfuge on which johnson
would force Frazee out of the Ameri-
in his park. No greater Joke was
ever perpetrated. I personally know
that Frazee has taken measures as
have all the other owners, to suppress
gambling and keep the gambling
crowd from Fenway Park.
"Was any action ever taken against
the Red Sox on the score Of gambling
under other ownerships? Why then
should johnson keep harping about
gambling at Fenway Park under
Frazee?
IT johnson has the good of base
ball at heart he will quit talking
about gambling and not be SO inter-
ested in buying out the owners in the
American League"
Comiskey added that it was absurd

he could put teams in and out Of the
American League to suit his peculiar
whims and caprices.
