THURSDAY, NOV. II,
Is THANKSClVINCDAY
Governor Officially Sets That
Date as a Holiday in
Texas.

Austin, Tex Governor Hobby Fri
day issued proclamation proclaiming
Thursday, Nov p, as Thanksgiving
Day, which is to be a holiday in the
state Of Texas. The proclamation fol
lows:
LAS we near the end of another year
We are reminded Of the many and
varied blessings which have been be-
slowed upon us by a God of tender
mercies and great compassion. 1t is
appropriate and proper that we pause
for brief time and render unto God
our homage and give expression to
our deep gratitude and the great debt
which we owe to him from whom come
all our happiness and all our blessings.
The year though still within the
shadow of the earth's greatest tragedy,
has been immeasurably prosperous for
the people Of Texas We have been
spared the pain of pestilence. We
have, with few exceptions, escaped
calamity and disaster. The field has
responded, if not bountifully, at least
sufficiently, to the labors OF the hus-
bandman, and mankind has been re
warded for his toll.
There has been relief from mar
tial conflict throughout our land. We
have enjoyed the ties of friendship
and our daily occupations, if not free
of strife and contentious, evidence the
composing influence of justice and
right-dealing among men, from which
eventually social and economic peace
must flow There is much to rejoice
us in the contemplation Of our bless
ings, and no cloud from which brave
should shrink or cover, obscures the
dawning of the worlds new day
Wherefore, ! recommend that
Thursday, Nov. 27, be observed as a
day of thanksgiving and reYerent med
itation and homage to the God OF the
universe. On this day let us suspend
all secular work and employment, and
let us assemble in our accustomed
places of worship and with songs OF
praise and prayers give thanks to our
Heavenly Father for all that he has
done Tor US.
Let us be reminded that in the
midst of our prosperity there are al
ways unfOrtunates about us upon
whom affliction and sorrow have laid
the biighting touch and who are de-
pendent upon our charity for the lit
tie comfort they may CLEAN from life.
Out of our multitude OF blessings let
US give freely to those who are IN
need.
Therefore, l. w. P. Hobby, COVER
nor of Texas, do proclaim that Thurs
day, Nov. 27. 1919. shall be holiday
in the state of Texas, and recommend
that all officials and employees OF the
state, as well as all the people, sus-
pend their labors on that day, except
where such labor is necessary for the
health of the public, the protection OF
life or preservation of property.

All College
Graduates

The men who have been sent to the
Sorbonne are college graduates, save
IN few cases where work equal to
college degree has been done in the
subject chosen. The work is essentially
postgraduate work. For many of the
men-perhaps for all of them-the op-
portunity here is rare one. Some of
the work done here cannot be dupli-
Gated in the world. Such, for instance.
is the advanced work in wireless, un-
der Monsieur Abraham, where much
that was unknown before the war, and
which has never yet been released for
the general student, will now be i'm
parted.
Then there are special courses for
the Americans, some given in English,

The course in commerce and economics
is three-quarters in English. In the

ganized in combat divisions and large
S. O. S. units. These, besides offering
academic courses Of high school grade,
utilize the mechanical equipment of
the army in large number Of trades
and vocational courses.
For men who are qualified to do
freshman and sophomore college work,
an A. E. F. University has been
established ut the little village of
Beaune. In seventeen days this univer-
sity, which can accommodate 10000
men, was created. During the war one
of the largest of the American base
hospitals was at Beaune. The hos
pitfalls have been converted into labora-
tories, lecture halls, class rooms, IL
braries and dormitories. The faculty
comprises such men as William f.

of the lowlands that the police get
the chance to bring them to justice.
Their crimes against each other are
never told outside.
The troopers rode into Polly Hol-
low a year ago and brought down
to the lowlands a number of draft
evaders. These men, when mustered
into the service, were convinced that
they were going to be obliged to
fight to free "niggers." All of them
believed that the Civil War was still
going on. This in the Empire State,
three hours run from New York
City, an hour by automobile from
the capital of the state!
1t is desolate country this time
of year, this Catskill region. Great
mountains rear like battlements
through the mist, the white trunks
of birchcs cleaning like chalk
scratches upon their slate-hued
flanks. 1t is a land of dense wood
land and narrow passes, through
which brooks boil and tumble. It is
land of little shabby villages, to
which the brief summer season alone
brings the breath of lie.
New-York tribune., 1919-04-27

Between the late lamented Sam
at one extreme and the frightened
lad Kenneth at the other lie the
great bulk of cases over which the
state troopers have jurisdiction.
Last year they arrested and
convicted men of sixty-five va
rieties Of lawbreaking. Besides vio-
lations of the penal code, the riders
act as the agents Of the Department
OF Education, the Prison Depart
ment, the Department of Health,
the Highway Department, the Con-
servation Commission, the Depart
ment Of Agriculture, the Internal
Revenue Department, the Military
Intelligence Department and the
Automobile Bureau.
1t is young mems work, this rid
ing in all weathers, with new ad-
ventures cropping up each day, and
you, ahorse and armed, ready to fol-
low them through. 1t is the sort of
life of which the small boy dreams.
and there must be much of that
same small boy still in the men of
the service, for there has never
been man who has left or been
discharged from the troopers who
did not make desperate efforts to
get back again.
The city rarely hears of them and
still more rarely sees them, for their
work is solely for the country folk.
And in the eighteen months of their
existence the country folk have
grown to look for them, these
friendly riders, much as men of
medieval times watched for the
coming of the knight errant. On
these broad shoulders they are
learning to lay their temporal
troubles. as people of an earlier time
we're wont to turn for spiritual guild
ance and comfort to another less
militant order of gray brethren.

One Man They
Had to Kill

There is big scrapbook on the
table in the lounging room at G
Troops barracks. On one page is
pasted such a broadside as sheriffs
and police chiefs issue for missing
criminals. This one offers a reward,
dead or alive, for Alvin (Sam)
Pasco, who killed Orlie Eldridge at
Thurman, N. Y, on April 19, 1918.
Above is the lean, hard-jawed, thin
Tipped face of Pasco, taken just be-
fore he served his term in Dame
mora. Above that, at the top of the
page, is written "Gone, but not for
gotten" That is G Troops tribute
to the one man they have had to kill
to get.
"Sam" Pasco never drank a drop,
nor did he touch tobacco, but he was
bad-bad from the soles of his feet
to his coarse-haired scalp 6 feet
5 inches above them. He was a bad
man of a bad family and the last
of the male line. "Dick," his uncle,
whose Christian name was Charles,
died while robbing a hen roost. He
passed away ingloriously. He knew
that the owner of the hens had set
a spring gun in the coop which would
go off when the door swung open.
Dick, after much pondering, decided
that if he crept on hand and knees
to the door and opened it, the load
Of buckshot would pass harmlessly
over his back. He guessed wrong,
for the man who set the gun had
aimed it where he imagined the
prospective thief's shins would be-
When it went off that's where Dicks
head was.
Leander, father of Sam, died few
New-York tribune., 1919-04-27

years later, following a quarrel with
his son and his son-in-law, Calvin
Wood. Sam and Calvin withdrew
from the argument and debated on
how best to settle it. They cut cards
to see who would shoot the old man.
Calvin won, and did-shot him from
the bushes as he was coming into
town. Later Calvin was electrocuted
and Sam alone remained.
In double distilled evildoing Sam
upheld the reputation of the Pasco
family. He lived an easy, pleasant
life, taking what he wanted from his
neighbors' gardens and barnyards. If
the neighbor protested, Sam an
swered his objections by burning
down his barn or cutting the
tongues out of his cattle and horses.
Eventually no one ever dreamed of
protesting, and Sam ruled supreme
in Thurman, until one evil day he
was indicted for grand larceny and
sent to Dannemora.
He got out in the spring of 1918,
only to find that cousin, Orlie Ell
bridge, was living on the Pasco farm
that had belonged to Sans father.
Rather than have strangers profane
the dear old home of his sainted
parent, Sam drove them out at the
point of his Winchester, without
which he never went anywhere ex-
cept to Jail. Eldridge told his troubles
to Troopers Herrick and Kelly, who
sought out Pasco and attempted to
bring about reconciliation. Sam,
with his repeater cooked under his
arm, said he was willing to talk
things over.
Accordingly they sought out Ell
bridge, who seeing Pasco approach
ing between the two troopers,
thought that he had been arrested.

projects, "The Monitor" would
have to depend upon it's excellence
for the outside subscribers. 1t was
not the intention of the Church to
finance the paper, though no ex-
pense in the matter of equipment
had been spared. However the
looks of the place belied it, the staff
were made to hustle in the early
days in order to put the newspaper
on business footing. Undoubtedly
this desire for a successful busi-
ness proposition modified the char
acter Of the paper. Its sectarian
character had to be masked. It
must accept contributions outside
the Church and cater to an audience
outside the Scientists if it were to
