THANKSGIVING At ITS BEST
City Boys and Girls Don't Make az
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 q 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
fold blessings with which they may
have been showered, and when the
larder fairly groans with uncommon
delicacies.
1t is in the country that the manifold
blessings Of Thanksgiving day reach
their full fruition. 1t is not a mere
episode there, as it is in the city, but
an event that is a%nxiously looked for
ward to for weeks before it dawns. In
it's celebration it 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 Il 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.

hold a special Thanksgiving service Of
that kind.
Thanksgiving meals were things to
remember. Those were the good old
days when doughnuts were made as
big as bricks. and twas not thought
necessary to eat as many. as SIX but
the doughnut came between meals.
and on Thanksgiving day they were
not greatly in demand.
For breakfast we always had
chicken with many 'ixins' and pan
cakes and sweet cider for dessert. It
was a meal for all day, but not long
after noon we all gathered for the
feast, and it was q small family that
did not muster at least twenty strong.
We all went home to grandpa's, the
last n of us. Commonly every living
member of four generations would be
together for that day, no 1uatter how
scattered their homes might be.
after. dinner there'd be enough out
door sport to raise an appetite for six
o'clock supper, and after supper in
door games among the young people
till bedtime, but even the Oldest were
dragged into the games until they were
tired out.
There may be families that keep
up the old customs even yet, but I
wouldn't know where to look for them.

able to get any Of the mince and pump

them they wouldn't be such as grand

WITH THE DAYS WORK DONE
Thanksgiving Day May Be Likened to
the Beginning of a Long and
Pleasant Evening.

AS each Thanksgiving day ap-
proaches 1t becomes more and more
apparent to those who are in the habit
of meditating upon affairs In general
that the spirit of the occasion is one
to inspire individual sensation. and
that expression of that sensation falls
short of the mark.
There is in the Thanksgiving season
a sort of benign pause to the energies
Of the year, a subconsciousness of
filled granaries and of hay packed in
the barn loft, the cattle crunching in
the stalls, and the drapery of the trees
laid by for the approaching winter. 1t
is the twilight of the year; the chores
are done and the men folks come
stamping at the doorstep. The dinner
is steaming on the table and soon, the
food eaten, we will settle down for the
long evening.
1t has been a big day. The men folks
have finished a mighty harvest in Eu-
rope and come home. We give thanks
for those thar come home because they
are the living symbols of the nations
courage; and for those that will not
come again Il V in the spirit, for they
have been TRANSPORTED in the flame of
the great conflict.
And there will be our thanks for the
stout hearts of American mothers who
bore in silence and fortitude the bur-
dcns of their agonies; for these are the
symbols Of the nations devotion to
pure ideals.

OIL ACTIVITIES Of
GENERAL INTEREST


George H. Grooms returning Tues
day from q swing through the oil
territory near Belle Fourche, 8. D.,
and Colony. Wyo., brings a report OF
activities in those sections.
The company drilling a we'll on
Crooked Dog creek, IL melis south
east OF Belle Fcurche, had just struck
oil. The capacity Of the we'll was
kept q secret, however, as it was
capped Immediately afterward.
At Colony, Wyo., the standard rig
drilling outfit was down 2,138 feet.
A strong flow of water, strong with
sulphur, had been encountered but
the promoters were not discouraged
and proposed to go deeper.
The drillers were phlling casing at
the seven-mile we'll below Alzada.
The drill had become lodged in
the Thompson we'll near Alzada at
the end of the three-mile grade and
large magnet had been ordered
from Casper to rescue it.
The Little Missouri river we'll, Is
miles south of Ridge, this county,
had caved in at he depth of $50 feet
and the drillers were waiting for cas-
ing to resume operations.

BR0AOUS FOR THE
PERMANENT Co, SEAT

AS result Of the different meet
lngs held over the county the mast
week under anspices Of the BroaG,,s
Chamber OF Commerce in the inter-
est OF Broadus for permanent coun-
ty seat, it is believed Broadus will
more than carry the required major
ity of all votes cast to gain it's only
objective.
Meetings have been held as sched-
uled and no community has been dis
appointed. Everything has been free
with the exception of lunches and
these have been willingly brought by
the people. who in each instance
have packed the halls to capacity.
Hon. Harry p. Atwater has made
talks at each place, explaining the
initiative and referendum measures
and advancing the claims of Broadus
for the designation Of permanent
county seat. Enthusiasm for Broad
us has been manifested at every To-
.cality. Delegations OF Broadus boost
ers have attended the different meet
lngs and in no instance was there
found sound argument against To-
eating the permanent county seat at
BrOadus.
