Cold-boiled tongue makes very nice

THANKSGIVING AT ITS BEST
City Boys and Girls Don't Make -
Much of the Day as Do Their
Country Cousins.

The joys Of Thanksgiving are not
partaken In the fullness thereof by
many city boys and girls. They SIM
ply know that it is holiday, when
the pleasures and trials of school life
are temporarily laid aside, when
churches are open for those who want
to return devout thanks for the mani
j fold blessings with which they may
have been showered, and when the
larder fairly groans with uncommon
delicacies.
It is in the country that the manifold
blessings Of Thanksgiving day reach
their full fruition. 1t is not mere
episode there, as 1t is in the city, but
an event that is anxiously looked for
ward to for.weeks before 1t dawns. In
its celebration 1t differs from the ways
Of the city as widely as does day from
night. In the thickly populated towns
the religious aspect of the holiday has
been lost sight Of to great extent,
and in its place there has grown up the
habit of feasting and making merry.
1t is a time for family gatherings, for
balls, for football, for theatricals and
the thousand and one pleasures city
life is beset with.

who might ask PilAte's question BY

Christ, ID the same yesterday, to-

less and eternal truth. There is.
therefore, sense in which truth
does not change.
Truth in its essence ID unchang-
ing. But truth Is more than es-
sence. It is also relations.
Before you can predicate the
truth about anything. you must an
swer three questions. First, what
is 1t in itself! Next. what Is 1t In
its relation to other truths? And
lastly, what is it in relation to those
who perceive 1t!
The fist Is static, but the second
and third are constantly changing
The truth as to ones duty under
a monarchy Is not the same as the
truth as to ones duty under a de-
mocracy. The truth as to the con-
dition of those who have not &C
cepted Christ because they have
never heard Of Him is one thing
and Of those who have heard and
have not accepted is another. Truth
is perceived by finite intelligence
which means that 1t is apprehended
in sections. in phases. in aspects
We see only a part Of it. As ex.
perience grows and vision enlarges
our conception Of truth changes
just as ones view Of landscape
changes as he climbs higher and
sees more widely.

4 The republican national conven-
tiOn put a reclamation plank in lis
platform, and the democratic nation.
al convention will do the same thing
This is step in the right direction,
and shows that somebody Is working
ON one OF the biggest things that can
happen in the soath and west.
Governor Davis. being president OF
the Western States association. is
doing good work TO get each of these
states TO organize a state reclama-
ton association the same as ours,
and we can go 10 the southern states
which have & reclamation problem in
the shape OF drainage and cut-oyer
lands, and make a. deal with them.
and then we will have twenty-seyen or
twenty-eight states hitched up i'm
such a manner that, through their
delegations In congress and the state
organ izat'on. they will be able TO get
an appropriation from congress with
out all this monkey that We
have had heretofore.
Congressman Smith has worked
his head off for reclamation. and has
been the prime mover IN our con
gressional delegation from Idaho TO
assist. not only in reclamation. but
TO help the returned soldiers and
sailors 10 get bill passed that
would be practical and OF some bene-
fit TO them.
When we get all these factors
hitched up and lined up In good
shape, we are going to have a pretty
strong team for reclamation, and l
look forward during the next two
years to solving the problems that
the reclamation people have been
working on.
IL is true that the U. S. reclama-
ton service have their problems and
and they work hard to get appropri-
ations and at the present time they
have but little money In their treas
ury 10 do anything with and the Ida
no reclamation association wants 10
help them by creating sentiment
among the people OF Idaho that viii
be helpful. and Idaho will be bene-
fitted in the long run.
The problem before us at the pres
ent time is 10 store the water that Is
going TO waste every year and get IL
on the land as soon as possible, and
when we have done that, we have
double the present production OF Ida
no and are in a position 10 command
the attention OF stockholders with
the assurance that every year there
will be enough feed In these valleys
70 care for stock--a condition which
did not exist last winter and also
grow feed at prices that Will not
break the stockmen every year 10
care for their stuff.
There are many big problems con-
fronting us all tho time. We have
the political situation and we have
human nature. Misunderstanding and
ignorance. There are a great many
people who are reasonably intelli-
gent. who do not stop 10 consider a
problem that is vitality important TO
the happiness and welfare OF their
country. They do not study Il; they
simply snapshot at II and most times
they go wrong.
The government has made as
many mistakes as anybody else. but
We do not get anywhere by sitting
