In our acknowledgement of Gods guidance in the past, | let us not fail to offer prayer for His blessing on and guidance in the International Conference at Washington, to the end that the splendid program proposed by our Government may be accepted not only in principle but also in fact by the other powers of the world.
 Arizona has abundant cause for thanksgiving. During the past year we have been spared calamity. Peace has prevailed within our borders, and indus trial disturbance has not arisen to interfere with the orderly development of our resources. The long and trying period of drouth which proved as serious a factor in the existence of our live stock industry has very happily been ended and business conditions generally indicate that the gradual return of pros perity is we'll under way. Our state has been singularly favor ed in the matter of natural re- sources, to the full development of which we press forward with confidence and enthusiasm, know ing that our future importance as state is definite and certain. All these, and kindred bless ings, whether they be material, social or spiritual, have been vouchsafed to us by the gracious favor of Almighty God, who shapes and directs the destiny of nations, and who watches over the individual. It is most | fitting, therefore. that we as a people, publicly and unitedly, express to Him our reverent thanks for them all, and invoke his continued aid and guidance in all our public and private affairs.
 To this end, I, Thomas E. Campbell, Governor of Arizona, in accordance with our statutes, GO hereby join with the Presi dent of the United States in designating Thursday. Novem
 Der 24. 1921. as Thanksgiving Day. I would especially recon
 mend that on the day set, all of our people refrain from unneces
 sary labor and in the mystic circle of home and in places set apart for public worship, meet and give thanks unto him who
 has crowned us with his loving | kindness and tender mercies. In our abundance, let us not for
 get those who may be in need l and let us both as nation and as indiVid duals face the future
 with charity to all and malice
 toward none.
 In Witness Whereof, I have

NATIONALIzATIoN OF BANKING

Sydney, N. ). W.-Io prevent tln-
ancial institutions and banks from ru-
lining the small farmer by refusing him
credits and compelling him to meet
outstanding debts, the Labor party is
urging naturalization of the banking
system of the country.
A heavy land tax. imposed some
years ago, had the effect Of breaking
up many Of the large holding Of the
squatters and ranch holders, forcing
them to sell or subdivide their lands.
The latest move Of the bankers in driv-
ing the small settler out Of his own
is interpreted by labor as means to
restore the former autocracy and wage
a successful campaign against any de-
mocratic legislation sponsored by the
various Labor governments.

BRITISH COOP. CONGRESS DE-
MANDS REFORMS

The British Cooperative Congress,
convened recently at Scarborough,
England, did something more than
merely talk about pound-and.pence
economics and the sale Of tea and
soap. Matters of great political, so-
cial, and economic Importance were
handled without gloves; and the fact
that four million heads of families are
co-operators give substantial political
force to the resolutions Of the Con-
gress.
The Congress took a strong stand
against the Governments policy of mil
itary frightfulness in Ireland, demand
ing protection for the property and
lives of Irish co-operators,. and declar-
ing in favor of the right Of self-govern-
ment for the Irish people. The Con-
gress also called upon the Govern
ment to revise the entire British educa-
tional system, and inaugurate public
education which shall touch effec-
lively the child. the adolescent, and
the adult" One of the most momen-
tous question for the future Of the
whole cooperative movement - the
alliance of the British cooperative so-
cieties with the British Labor party,
was vigorously debated by the Con-
gress. While the great majority of
British co-operators are working peo-
pie. and are in entire sympathy with
the aims of the Labor Party, yet there
is a small but influential minority Of
co-operators who belong 10 the profes-
sional classes and even to the nobility.s
The Congress felt that local opinion
had not been sufficiently consulted to
make a decision Of such Importance,
and referred the question back to the
local societies for the democratic for
mutation of a definite judgment on
this issue. With respect TO internat-
ional trade between co-operators, all
ready substantially begun between
several European countries, it was the
consensus Of opinion that, no matter
how diplomats might bungle. the Brit
ish Cooperative Societies should open
up the fullest possible trale relations
with the cooperative societies Of other
countries, particularly in Soviet Rus
sia, either on a gold basis or BY the
mutual exchange Of cooperative pro-
ducts.

TO CLOSE THE SABINE GAP

Along the Sabine river, talk has
been renewed of effecting the long
taIked-of but but rather costly juno
ton Of the good road systems Of Lou
isiana and Texas by means of per-
manent highway through the Sabine
lowlands. and bridge across the Sa-
bine river at Orange. Besides the ad-
vantages offered for purely local trav-
ell, this will close an embarrassing gap
in the Old Spanish Trails Highway to
the Pacific coast.
The building of the highway is up
to Calcasieu parish, which voted tax
for it some time ago that afterwards
proved imperative because of some
legal flaw. The police jury will call
an election this week. to vote l-mill
tax for three years for the purpose Of
building this road. 1t will cost, by re-
cent estimates, $250,0O0.
The building Of the bridge is the
business of the city of Orange, and at
a meeting Of the Chamber Of COM
merce last week the various types Of
bridges proposed were discussed. A
steel bridge will cost $l65.000. and
bridge $4,000. Apparent
ly, Orange will be ready to get the
bridge under way this fall. and means
to build the road will be available a.
hout the same time.

long and return home after their eight
hours of play and instruction has been
completed. They are given physical
culture exercises, marching, and 9th

awakens, they are interested in some
form of play that is instructive and at
the close of the day they clean up
their school and go home with the
rest of the co-operators. Everything
pssible is done to surround the child
with interesting things to play with
and each chooses the things that
amuses himself most. They draw pic
lures, paint with colored pencils and
chalk, model with clay and decorate
their school room with their own
