that this Nationwide movement was
the vehicle for the carrying on of the

PEACE PACT FAILURE.

Regardless of ones views on the

Columbia Plans
For Observance
Of Thanksgiving

1t is believed the approaching
Thanksgiving holiday will be more
generally observed in Columbia than
ever before 1t will be a day of real
Thanksgiving and praise. Practically
all business will suspend, and special
services will be held at the churches.
On last Thanksgiving day thousands
of Maury county boys were over
there fighting the battles of democra-
cy, or in training camps and did not
enjoy the usual Thanksgiving feast
with the home folks. Turkey and
pumpkin pie was not so much in de-
mand as it will be this season, for
those sturdy fighters are back once
more, and the consumption will be I'M
limited but this year-when those
boys get to the eats they are "going
over the top" just as they did over the
Hindenburg line.
Columbians are planning to spend
the day in various ways. Some will
attend the VanderbiIt-Sewaree foot
ball CLASSIC at Nashville, others will, IL
the day is pretty, drive far into the
country in their cars, while still 9TH
ers will remain at home and offer
thanks for the blessings that have
been so abundantly poured upon them
during the past year.

DR.. Ford is out in the interest OF
this Nationwide movement, and the
way he handles it gives inspiration to
his hearers. His personal experiences
overseas were used with such splendid
emphasis to convey to his hearers
what it meant for the entire church
as one body to enter this great mis-.
sionary movement. He told of an or
der issued by his commanding officer
to go to a certain salient held by
battery of artillery, but in his journey
he came to a cross roads which was
being shelled by the Boche. He had
to pass under this fire and the de-

House Plans To
Adjourn, Broken
Into By Mann
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-Plans for
the house to adjourn have been broken
UP by Representative Mann, who re-
minded the house of the fact that any
signature becomes void Immediately
after the adjournment of congress.
The house appointed committee to
call at the White House to ask for
action on the bills. An embargo
against German dyes until the middle
of January and the repayment of $780,
100000 spent by the government for
new railroad equipment are among the
bills.

REPUBLICANS IN STATE.

Dispatches from Chattanooga state
that the republican leaders of Tennes-
see are laying plans TO nominate ex-
Senator Newell Sanders for governor
and to capture the state in the cleo
ton next year. No better selection
for governor could be made than New
ell Sanders. He is a splendid gentle
man, has made a success in life and
enjoys to an exceptional degree the
confidence Of his associates. If Ten
nessee should elect a republican gov
ernor The Herald knows Of no man in
the party that it would rather have
the honor than Mr. Sanders.
But it is also stated that Gov Rob-
erts will be attacked for his zeal and
activity in behalf Of law and order. II
is charged that the governor is organ
izing law and order leagues to further
his political interests and that he is
making a campaign Of the state in fur
therance Of his political ambition. The
republicans are not going to make
much Roadway if they have no better
issue than this. Regardless Of poll
tics the law abiding, substantial citi-
zenship of this state is behind Gov.
Roberts in his endeavor to build up
sentiment for the supremacy Of the
law 1t is as the governor has declar-
ed, the one issue before the American
people today. Its transcends all 9TH
er issues.
Gov. Roberts is making campaign
of the state for law and order at the
request of one of the most represen- /
tative assemblies ever convened in
Tennessee, a meeting participated in
by members Of both political parties. /
He is giving his time and efforts to
build up sentiment for real Ameri- /.
canism because the nation is menac- /,
ed by the activities Of those who have
no sort of sympathy for our institu-
tions.
IT is probably true that Gov. Rob- |
erts is politically ambitious, that he !
is actuated by desire to strengthen |
his political fortunes before the peo- |
pie of Tennessee as well as by high I
er motives. Very few of us are Who'll I
~ unselfish even when we are doing
noble service for humanity. The writ |
err of these comments is probably not |
altogether unselfish in his crusade for /
the preservation of American institu- |
ticns and American ideals. His would |
transmit to his own sons as we'll as
to others the priceless blessings |
which he has enjoyed. He desires
his children to have the same oppor- |
tunities in this land OF the free that |
he has enjoyed. There is selfishness
in the patriotism of those who made +
such stupendous sacrifices during the /
recent war They loved home and /
country and liberty because they ap-
preciate these blessings and they
wanted to safeguard them for them /
selves and their own as they would .
for others.
