THE DAY OF JOY

Wv HAT you thankful for this Thanksgiving Day? Wait
w minute. 1t is falling characteristic of Americans,
attempt express nearly everything in terms of mon
~. Or, at least, in terms of prosperity.
Most of have the notion that Thanksgiving Day ma
iona festival was born in much the pta gratitude for
good fortune To extent 1t The Pilgrim Fathers
thankful for that ensured them against starvation in
the barren winter that lay ahead But nquesonaby their JOY
was not confined to food.
They thanked the Almighty for liberty in government free
dom of worship and the simple joys of happy homes
So, this Thanksgiving Day. let not be thankful merely in
proportion to prosperity though times have greatly mprov
ed in the past year
Let remember and be thankful for these important
elements of life-our families, health, friends.
Many home that trying to make small chicken
feast for half dozen hungry mouths has of
genuine love and happiness be thankful for than M
places where buffers giant turkeys silver paers.
And if away from home forced to dine at public eat
ing place strangers let be thankful for the love of far
away home folks and friends.
Such the real Thanksgiving spirit

AN ORDINARY THANKSGIVING

Py Berton Braley
We're thankful in humdrum way,
Without much chatterng about it,
That we've a hearty meal today,
We wouldn't care to so without it,
We're thankful for the sheterinE roof
Which humdrum labor keeps above us,
And for the friends who've met the proof
OF time and trouble, and who love us.
We're thankful that We still find fun,
Yes, fun that shakes the very rafter,
In just the ordinary
OF simple jokes and hearty laughter.
Our japes may be a trfle trite,
And captious critics might abhor. them,
But they give us a rich delight;
Such as they are, we're thankful for them!
We're thankful that the family
Again is gathered here together,
Deep in hearts we're glad to be
Undoubtedly birds of a feather.
We're thankful for our trials past,
Which, maybe, made us stronger truer;
We're thankful that they didn't last
And hope, in future, they'll be fewer
We're thankful that our worldly lot
Is not so bad and that ambition
still stirS in us, we are not
quite satisfied with condition;
We do not whine we do not crow
But each before his heap.ng plateful
Gives thanks and hopes next year will show
More reasons still for being grateful

Stealing No Crime

People are fooled by words. If we
said "SteaP instead of "taX" we would
understand better Thus "incOme
steal instead of income tax, "sales
steal' instead of sales tax and "steal
exemption" instead of tax exemption
would convey the truth to everybody's s
mind. The 'incOme tax makes rich
men poor, without making even one
business enterprise, thus causing in
creased unemployment, for every SEN
sible rich man invests his money in
some enterprise that would add to his
riches. This means the employment
of labor and the bigger the enterprise
the more labor employed. What we
should do is to destroy monopoly
whereby men get rich at the expense
of the community and of course the
great and fundamental monopoly of
all is the land monopoly. Because
the people do not receive the wealth
they create they are compelled to
steal in the shape of so called "taXeS."
In tile parable of the unjust steward,
he said: Il cannot dig, to beg l am
ashamed" But people can and do
steal, and so they are not put to the
shame of begging except in war times
when they beg patriots to buy Glib
erty Bonds" etc.

COLOR OF GIANTS UNIFORMS
Will Not Bear Title "World Cham
pions" Across Breast-Home
Suits Will Be White.

The New York Giants will not sport
the title World Champions across their
chest next summer. McGraw origi-
mated the idea years ago and it didn t
make much Of a hit with fandom or
players. Consequently it went into the
discard.
The Cleveland club dug up the idea
after beating Brooklyn, and so lettered
the uniforms Of the Indians, The idea
got the Cleveland players in many a
'razzing" last summer, in games in
which they were being badly beaten.
However, the fans will know the
Giants are in the park when they trot
on the field. The World Champions
title will be missing, but the uniforms
will be a riot of color.
The home suits will be white with
a violet stripe and the initials IN. Y"
on The sleeve. The stocking will be
red, white and blue and the cap white
with a blue peak.
The road uniform will be gray and
the word "Giants" across the shirt
fronts. Some rather fancy trimmings
will liven up the somber gray.

Although st. Martns-in-the-Fi

Parish church-has just celebrated its
2OOth anniversary under the Royal
aegis, the church stands on a site
cOnsecrated centuries before. The
first organ used in the present build
ing was purchased by George l, who
had the royal arms worked in relief
on the portico. Soon after it's erec-
ton the church was thus referred to

Hard at Work

The scrapping of battleships under
construction has begun, much to the
delight of the taxpayers and lovers OF
peace But on the other hand the
attention of the public is drawn to
the plight of the 1000 men discharged
from the yards in one week. Has the
government made plans for their fu-
ture employment? Not a plan! Not
even the suggestion of plan. The
same thing would occur if we were ia
scrap the army and navy. The men
would be turned loose to scratch
around for job. Thus we have added
to the ranks of the millions of unem-
ployed in perfectly heartless and
businesslike manner. What will be
the view of those men and their SYM
pathizers? We seem to be doing our
best to manufacture BOlshevik senti-
ment.

"PRlME MINISTER'S AND PRESl-
DENTS"

What is in many respects one CT
the most remarkable books of the day
is fresh from the press of the George
H. Doran Company, New York. 1t is
entitled prime Ministers and PreSi-
dents" by Charles Hitchcock Sheriff..
The book consists of series of intl-
mate talks with the big men who are
leading the governments of the world.
Mr.. Sheriff. has been before the Amerl-
can public for many years as diplo-
mat, lawyer and writer, and the book
he has presented is departure in its
own way from the stereotyped method
of getting into intimate touch with
the men of the day who are making
history. He takes up Lloyd George,
Uchida, of Japan, SHINES, of Germany,
BRAND and others of France, Meighan,
of Canada, JoneScu, of Rumania, Pa
shich, of Jugo-Slavia, besides many
others of equal prominence, and pre-
sents the European situation as freely
as though he We're one Of the close
friends and advisors of the ruler or
leader to whom he talks The charm
of the book lies principally in its de-
lightful style. IT, as has been said,
"Style is the gesture of the soul,' Mr..
Sheriff. has achieved a notable tri-
umph in prime Ministers and Presi-
dents'' that does his abilities profound
credit. The intense human interest he
has woven around Norway and
Sweden, Holland and Roumania, to-
gether with all the other Balkan states,
is in keeping with those larger things
he brings out in close cOnfabSs with
Lloyd George and BRAND. The story
of Norway and Sweden reads like Il
wonderful romance, the grip of the
farm in the former, and the factories
of Sweden, together with the great
array of intellectualS of both countries,
form one of the most fascinating parts
of Mr.. Sherrill's book He made his
tour of the European countries at this
time in order to impress conditions
now prevailing there. Based on what
the book represents in literary value,
it is without a superior; viewed from
what it contains in human interest in
present day world affairs, it has no
counterpart, for no one has handled
these things in so maSterful manner.

Thoughts Of Today
To the Heather in Darkness

Can it be that some glimmerings of
economic sense are beginning to en-
tighten the minds of our political lead
ers? Secretary Fall proclaims the fact
that the undevelOped resources of
Alaska would, if developed, pay the
soldiers bonus without the slightest
burden on one taxpayer. He concluded
his speech with the following remark
able and extraordinary (for an Off
ciaD words: "The speaker, touching
upon the topic of public lands in gen.
eral. said that in future the United
States would not part with the title
to the domain but would LEASE THE
LANDS, and from the ROYALTIES
would eventually receive twelve bill
lions of dollars" THIS is THE SIN
GLE TAN! These words of Senator
Fall indicate that the government of
the United States has become con-
verted to the Single Tax for the future
policy though it does not yet under
stand how to make the Single Tax
effective in settled communities in the
way pointed out by Henry George

Honesty

Honesty is the best politics-that
is, unless YOU want to win and then
il is often absurd and ridiculous. Elec-
tions are carried not by principles but
by plausible issues brought into prom
inence. A red herring drawn across
the trail will turn the majority aside
every time-until some dire disaster
occurs and forces the real issue to
the front. 1t took three years of in
suit and disaster to show the cOun-
try the necessity of declaring war
against Germany, Notwithstanding at
the outset the urgent appeals of the
most eminent people in the country
IT has taken six million of idle people
TO bring public attention to our eco
nomic shortcomings.

The True Third Party

The New York Times casts sneers
at the Third Party sentiment that
manifeStS itself in the Farmer Labor
Party and points out the irreconcila-
BILE interests of both farmers and labor
men. This is quite well founded
criticism, but when Third Party
arises that represents the interests of
not only farmers and laborers but also
of professional, of business men and
of actively working capital the sneer
will fade on the face of the Times and
of all other papers that favor the
monopoly of the land by the few and
of all special privileges that depend
thereupon.

BAD LUCK WITH DOGS
Mans Thirty-seventh Pet Killed by
an Automobile.

Boxer Gearinger of Bloomsbury, Pa,
has owned dogs for a good many
years, but he has trouble keeping
them.
His last possession was run over by
an automobile here the other night
and killed, and Gearinger commented
that it was the thirty-seventh dog he
has owned that has been killed or
been stolen.
He recited that five dogs have been
stolen from him, six have been pois-
oned, four have strayed away. two
have been accidentally shot, one got
sick and died and the other nineteen
have been killed by automobiles,
wagons or street cars.

DANGER IN PALlSADE AVENUE

The automobile accident last Satur-
day in Palisade avenue and Bluff road,
Palisade, was looked for long before
it happened. Ever since the new high
way was opened last fall it has been
a speedway, and the public has known
it, The beautiful surface, the charm
ing location through these Fort Lee
woods. have invited all the daring of
the autoist, and he has taken advan-
tage of it. Hundreds of automobiles
have been driven over the wonderful
highway at really breakneck speed.
All this might have been overlooked
if the speeding had been confined to
the outlying stretches, perhaps; but to
continue the foolhardy practice right
through the heart of the village of
Pafsade was sure to bring about dis
aster sooner or later. 1t came last
Saturday when one car going at ter
rife speed, according to close observ-
ers, struck another car trying to cross
the highway at Bluff road. The usual
result took place, though strangely
enough without il tragedy.
The point to emphasize in cOnnec-
ton with the situation is to urge the
authorities to get quick move on and
police that particular spot, so that
other drivers will not muss things and
perhaps kill some one through reckless
speed at Bluff road 1t is a matter
demanding prompt attention from the
borough, for, if it is not the bOrough's S

county. In the meantime, haste is

The kaiser's pet racing yacht was

Yacht club and dreamed of world
power as it carried him on cruises.
The war changed lot of things. 1t
changed the name Germania to Half

ownership. Gordon Woodbury. of New

| Some years there was much talk in Alaska
tof the Shackleford ring. of Boss Shackleford, and
later, to lesser degree similar charges were thrown
up to Tom Donohoe. All sorts of things were said of
the power they welded, and the manner in which
they controlled their respective parties. But it is
probable that neither ever held in his hand such
power as does within L. Paul, attorney of Juneau
