Capital City Notes
Concentrating Thanksgiving day
is a national trait of the American
people. 1t has never been forgotten,
and has never been indifferently OBJ
served since Tvs, which was our
first national Thanksgiving day, ap-
pointed by congress. 1t is always
looked forward to with just as much
anticipated pleasure and eagerness
as the holiday season is. No matter
how humble or obscure a person
may be there is always something
for which thanks may be given. No
matter what the sorrows and trials
may have been during the past year
every individual has something to
be truly thankful for, The Divine
Being bestows His blessings in many
ways, and in various degrees as He
in His infinite wisdom deems best.
In Santa Fe yeterday, November the
9th appropriate services were held
in the different churches where many
offered up their thanks for the bless
ings nov enjoyed by them, Yet we
must bear in mind when we are
tempted to critic;se that it isn't al
ways those who attend services who
are the most earnest, the most sin
cere and the most thankful for the
blessings that we all are now enjoy
ing, and who faithfully face the future
with hopes that before another
Thanksgiving day arrives, peace will
abide through this great universe, and
the poor and Borrowing ones may
enjoy the privileges fate has denied
them.
The Elks Thanksgiving dance last
evening at the club house was ex-
cepticnally gay and enjoyable. The
attendance was unusually large. The
Elks Club is one of the most delight
full places in the city and their social
affairs are always especially pleasing.
Lunch was served about midnight
which dancing continued for an
hour or more. AL Morrison's orchestra
never played better, the new dance
music was exceedingly fine. The
dance given at this popular club last
Saturday night was also a grand
success and largely attended by Elks,
their ladies and friends. /
The Woman's Board of Trade held
a business meeting at the library
building Monday afternoon. The
were active in the distribution
of donations made by Santa Feans
10 make Thanksgiving a happy n
the poor of the city this year.
This organization and the Santa Fe
Club have accomplished a
wonderful work along these lines in
assisting the needy in various ways.
The Knights of Columbus, the Elks
and other prominent orders, who do
not permit publicity, are also exceed
ngly active in charitable work.
