THE AMERICAN LANDSCAPE

| do not like the colored signs
They mar the landscape far and wide;
In every vacant lot.
/ wish that they were not
In city or town the country round,
In sunlight and in shade,
Are the securing twins, the cook who
grins,
And the pancakes Auntie made.
The salad oil time cannot spoil,
And fountain pens by scores;
Prime canned fish for all who wish.
Polish for waxing floors.
Then gum and jam, and ham what am,
With pickles crisp and green;
The biscuits round, the cornmeal
ground,
And Boston's famous bean.
Pure family soap and cigarette dope,
Varnish that lasts for years;
Homemade bread, chickens milk-fed ;
1t drives one quite to tears.

They don't appeal to me;
America has scenery
I'd really like to seel

PROCLAMATION FOR

Governor Sets Aside Thursday,

Bow the Head and Lift the Heart to
Him Who Directs Our Steps"
Governor Marcus II. Holcomb is
sued the following Thanksgiving
proclamation Wednesday:
State of Connecticut
By His Excelleney
MARCUS II. HOLCOMB
Governor



In world whose sky lowers with
the clouds of social unrest and
economic disturbance it is easy to
darken the mind with black fore
holdings and gloomy fears. The need
today is for the wider outlook that
balances good and evil, not in the
scales of present circumstances, but
in the scales of historical continuity,
and for the deeper insight that meas-
ures human progress. not in the
terms of weeks and months, but in
the terms of Him to whom a thou
sand years are as one day. The
struggles of man against man in the
eternal effort of each to secure to
himself the greatest possible of ma
terial benefits and comforts mark but
the surface changes of society; be-
meath them ever moves, silent and
resistless, tide whose impulse
comes, not out of the instant press of
mems needs and desires, but out of
mans inherent growth in knowledge
and power, and in faith and courage.
Few periods in human history have
offered so many proofs of the influx
years, or have been so calculated to
awaken to it the minds of men.
Spurred by the stress of war, and its
inevitable aftermath, science has
reached far forward in its search for
knowledge, courage has become a
commonplace of life and faith has
been builded deep and strongly but
tressed. In these, is revealed to us
our cloud of smoke by day and our
pillar of fire by night And for this,
far more than for the material bene-
fits that the year has offered. should
our thanks be given to Him who still
leads us on to the last great goal In
this thought, let US, on Thursday, No
vember the twenty-seventh, which old
custom marks as our peculiar day of
thanksgiving
bow our heads and lift our hearts to
Him who, if faith means anything,
we must believe is directing our steps
to future broader. brighter and
more glorious than the past has known
or we yet can clearly see.
Given under my hand and seal of
the State at the Capitol. in Hartford,

BURNING RAGS CAUSE OF FIRE
ALARM

A fire alarm was rung in from box

of Herbert Laid. The rags were
thrown from the house and neither
water nor chemicals were used by the

he must quit cold" The crown
prince offered to take up the lead
ership but apparently was not trust
ed for his task Then came the can
vass Of officers who even more than
ever showed that abdication was q
necessity. Communication with the
ehancellory in Berlin showed the
streets already we're flowing in
blood.
Abdication, the kaiser was informed
was not a question OF hours, but OF
minutes.
While the negotiations were pro-
ceeding, Prince Max Of Baden gave
the Wolff bureau a statement of the
kaiser's complete abdication, al
though he had no authorization for
such step.
The kaiser was angry at this "act
of force" of the prince, and still
clung to the contention that he
would remain as king of Prussia.
However, after further negotiations
with his generals it was decided that
the abdicatioh should be made. A
train was prepared for the kaisers
departure, and while he weakened
couple of times about going, he was
finally dispatched safely to Holland.
The expose concludes with the
statement:
ITO the last, the kaiser permitted
himself only the one thought-to
serve truly his fatherland.'

But Gen. Hindenburg. Gen Groener
and many other of her prominent
leaders knew it quite well, and veyr

man press in making the disclosures
was probably to present quite a diff
ferent aspect of the closing days at

The revelations, in a nutshell, show
that a group of generals urged the
kaiser to abdicate because of the in
ternal revolution; that he hesitated
and wanted to lead an army against
the revolters ito save the father

general showed such a project was
impossible; that they couldn't guaran-
tee their troops would fight boise

ception they declared the army was
insueh shape that ii wanted only
to quit and get home The situation
was picture dto the kaiser as one Of

had had several changes of heart, and
until his generals had told him that
they could not guarantee his safety
