THANKSGIVING and "ThanksIivins."

Thanksgiving and "ThanksliVing."
To sing a song Of thanks to God is
inspiring; to live a life of service with
your brother is improving the world.
We're we less idealists we should view
with fine satisfaction the sight of men
and women differing in their religious
beliefs, yet joining together in thank
ing God. What we plead for is not a
yearly thanksgiving to God, but a daily
Thanksgiving with God. Our aim is not
content to see men sit together once a
year, banishing prejudice and hatred,
but to behold them at work together,
every day in the year absolutely for
getting religious differences, ignoring
theological doctrines and judging a
man by his conduct, not prejudging
him by his creed or race The cele-
bration of this day is highly to be COM
mended. It stands as the highest ex-
preston of present day religious OBJ
servance, yet its true worth is only
achieved when we carry into the entire
year what the day symbolizes to us all.
Thanksgiving is praiseworthy, but
Thanksgiving is divine.-Rev. DR.. Ru-
dolph 1. Coffee, Pittsburgh.

Cause For Gratitude.

If ever we are tempted to say that,
though others have much to be thank
full for, our lives are hard and our
paths are thorny let us stop a minute
and see by what standard we are
measuring our blessings. If we took
at a cripple plodding along with
clutches we cannot help being thank
fuf that we have feet which serve us
well and that we a walk and run
without so much as considering the
effort. When the rain beats on the
roof at night we may be thankful for
the house that shelters Is. When the
doctor calls next door to see an in
valid who is tossing with fever we
may be thankful that we are well. II
there are flowers on the doorbell across
the street we may be thankful that
there are no vacant chairs in our
acknowledgement E. Sangster.

sGRWNHE most un-American Thanks

EXPRESS CO.'S IN
COURT WRANGLE
QUESTION OF INTERCHANGE OF.
TRAFFIC COMES BEFORE
COURT OF APPEALS.
URGE RAISING OF MORE HOGS
Legislature VIII Be Asked to Amend
Laws to Permit An Increased Levy
on All Taxable Property For School
Purposes.



The court Of appeals of this state
must decide whether the Southern Elk
press Company Is compelled to deliver
packages Of intoxicating liquor to the
Pike Express Company at Stone, Pike
county. The Pike Express Company
secured mandatory injunction in the
Pike circuit court to compel the South
ern Express Company to interchange
traffic with 1t, and the. Southern Ex-
press Company asked the court OF ap-
peals to dissolve the injunction.
The Southern Express Company
claims that the Pike Express Company
is aiding the residents of dry West
Virginia to get their mint juleps, as
the laws Of West Virginia prohibit the
delivery OF Intoxicating liquors in that
state. intoxicating liquors are con.
signed to persons at Buslirk, KY,
which is directly across the Tug river
from Matewan. w. Va. The consign-
ments Of liquors are always taken to
Stone, KY, where they are to be turn
ed over to the Pike Express Company;
to be carried to Buskirk, to be deliv-
cred to the consignees.
The Southern Express Company says
that II the shipments OF liquor to
Stone, KY, were not for the purpose
OF evading the West Virginia prohibit
tion laws they would be consigned to
Matewan, w. Va, and would not be
diverted to Stone. Ky.Sand have to be
carried across the mountains to Bus
kirk.
The Pike Express Company denies
that 1t was organized for the purpose
Of aiding liquor traffic, and claims that
1t has complied with every law to af-
ford It the privileges of "a common
carrier.
