Daily Talk
FOCH.

FOCH.
Wars or no wars, the hero will con-
tinue to be worshipped.
The reason is plain-we depend
upon the outward thrills of life to
build the fires of inspiration within us.
The hero becomes hero because
he has put something into the world
that we would like to have put there.
He has had courage and vision. And
he has used his determination to weld
these two into a completed task.
I recently stood on the Slde-nneS
and watched the illustriouS hero,
Marshal Foch. pass by. Great crowds
went wild with enthusiasm. And the
simple man acknowledged the plaudits
in the most dignified and democratic
manner. For it must be remembered
that Foch has always been man OF
action-and of few words.
There was a time when it looked
as tho no human leader could win the
fight that conferred about this man.
But it was won. Foch saw the thing
thru. And America and the world
has been honored by having the op-
portunity to pay homage to him.
But I have in mind a story. 1t came
to me as I saw the thousands surge to
get glimpse of the car that held this
standing soldier.
When the World War was at its
height, the newspapers published the
account of correspondent who went
to interview Foch. He was directed
to a little French village.
Millions Of homes had been rent and
tears flowed as freely as the blood OF
those who gave all that they had
Civilization even, seemed to be crack.
ing under the strain. The stoutest
heart was wondering why it was that
God didn't come around and put the
contest and its slaughter to an end.
But God was already around. And
now people are beginning to under
stand what their faith was unable to
fathom-the reporter met Foch just
as he was coming out of an obscure
church where he had gone to pray!

that all should be treated alike. The

Lord, teach us to see the greater good
Despite the petty care,
Let us recall when trials fall
The blessings that we share,
Let all our selfish murmurnEs cease
Before the glorious gift of peace.
Dear Lord, in years Of old we prayed
Thy favor our arms.
When we were tasked for strength, we
asked

Now shall LIES trivial woes destroy
The memory Of our greatest joy?
Out of the dangers we have come
Here all mankind is free,
Our skies have cleared. the thing we feared
We know shall never be.
Lord by Thy will and Thy command,
No tyrant's yoke is on our land.
With grateful hearts let us rejoice.
Our flag still holds the sky.
The light of truth shines on our youth
No starving children cry,
Our county. by Thy gracious will
Is Freedoms glorious bulwark still.
Lord, when we grumble much and wall
At trifling ills we bear,
Let us recall, beyond 1t ALL
The greater joys we share:
Let us remember to the last
The dangers we have safely passed

THANKSGIVING DAY.
The old order changeth. giving place to
new.

Thanksgiving Day fifty years ago
and Thanksgiving Day today. Then
the boy of ten, and now the man of
sixty. Does his mind go back to that
glorious day when he and little sister
were awakened when the stars were
pale and the world was gray and were
washed and dressed and made ready
for the omnibus that was to take them
to the train? Does he remember the
wonderfuE Journey in the dawning
daylight and the arrival at the town
where grandpa lived? The piling into
the carryan, made comfy with the
furry buffalo robes, and the drive to
that land of milk and honey, of
chickens and horses and doughnuts
and apples, that paradise of childish
memory. grandpa's farm? The spicy
doors that sharpened the appetite till
he thought starvation was nearer than
dinner, and there never could be a
turkey big enough to fill his hollow
emptiness?
Oh, those memory days of half a
century agoi The sun went down and
the room grew dim and mysterious.
The glow from the wide fireplace
darkened the shadows in the corners,
and the littlest one climbed to its
haven in mothers lap, and grandma
piled cushions on the braided rug for
little brother.
AS the older ones looked in the
rudy Goals they read the story of
what had been and gone, and lived
again the days when they were young.
To the children the flames were
prophecies of what was to come when
they grew up and the wide world OF
adventure was before them.
Now, grandmamma in her Knockers
and grandfather in his golfing outfit,
are out early on the links for a two
some that keeps them busy until time
for the start to the city, once distant
a days journey, now easily reached in
an hour, in comfort in the heated
limousine At the stadium the play
of gra ndson in the sporting event or
his college year is followed with
discerning and critical interest. And
then the dinner, similar to other din
ners of the days before, succeeded by
an evening at bridge or at the opera,
and Thanksgiving Day is over.
And age in wisdom, gives thanks
for what has been, while youth, in
happy ignorance of aught but good to
come, gives thanks for the dawn OF
his approaching day.

Engaged: In the letter you sent
me you certainly leave a lot to the
imagination. If you have positive
proof your fiance has been doing
things that he should not do and you
feel that you could not marry him,
why can't you break the engagement?
1t is true that an engagement is as
sacred as a marriage, but sometimes
it is better to break the engagement
than to go on and later break the
marriage vow. Be sure you are not
unduly suspicious of his actions be-
fore you make a move of any kind
whatever.
