THANKSGIVING.

1t Is now the month of November,
And the ground is covered with Snow,
The weather down near zero
The winter wind doth blow.
The nuts are 10 the attic,
The corn is in the bin,
The pumpkins 10 the cellar.
The fruits all gathered in.
The turkey, poor old fellow,
Knows not he's soon to die.
There are pies and cakes and goodies,
For Thanksgiving draweth nigh.
Now let US think of our blessings
And count them one by one
And have thankful hearts to the
Giver,
Who so much for us hath done.
Pearl Aldrich, '2l.
OUR BOYS.
What did the soldiers fight Cor
10 the struggle beyond the sea?
What did the soldiers die for
Ii IT wasn't for you and me?
Our hopes and our ambitions
Seemed to have almost died,
When the shouts OF victory filled the
air
And filed our hearts with pride.
And those who fought for freedom,
Conquering the desperate Hun,
VIII e'er be held ia mem'rY
For the good deeds they have done.
Lois Thomas, 81.

..Publicisy,' And propaganda

Tracing the development of
journalism froln earlier times, Will
Irwin, writing on "The Age Of
Lies" in the, December SUNSET,
shows how the great war brought
publicity" to the point where, as
propaganda" it blossomed forth
as a tremendous factor in the world
conflict. And he adds that, with
the war over, propaganda and its
power and effects will be felt for
years to come. He says;
"While they work with mary
tools, the main object of the pro-
pagandists whether political or in
dustrial, is always the same--to
slant, to bias, to color the news.
The gentlemen who serve special
interests--reactionary or radical
have ceased TO skim the surface
and have got down to the founda-
ton of public opinion. We may
have for decade ora generation
an age of lies, whereof the honest
editor or reporter will be as much
the victim as the public"
