OUR DAY OF THANKS

And fashioned it out of waste,
Men who would lay it low
In their fury of dim-sighted haste,
And bring back the dark once more:
Men that toll not nor spin,
Sow not nor reap,
Outcasts from every shore,
Men without laws to keep, =.
Men that mock at our dreams.
N UT we. on this Day of Thanksgiving,
~ Thank God because we are living
In the land our fathers made
And gave for our keeping
Flowers, that cannot fade
Take we. their children. to-day,
Where they are sleeping:
Fathers that made us free
Of air and earth and sea,
Brothers in bonds of broadest, happiest
Liberty.

GRAPE IS POPULAR !.
IN NEVADA

The grape. favored fruit from Bib
ical days, has lost none of its popu
,arity. even in Nevada. sinca the
amendment made famous 'y Mr
Volstcad.
In fact, sworn affidavit, On file in
the office of Collector Louis Spell
tier Of the United States internal rev.
enue Office. indicates that the popular
ity of the ancient grape is growing.
say 5 the Reno Journal.
While 239 persons were given per-
mission to manufacture non-intoAicat-
ing fruit juice in 1921, this year
records show that 36' permits have
been issued to date. The greater por>
ton of these are permits to crush the
Juice from grapes.
The federal prohibition law allows
the head of each family to man,ifac-
ture 200 gallons of any "non-intoxi-
eating" fruit juice, tax free, provided
he shall notify the revenue collector
At least five days prior to the date he
starts his extraction process, and signs
he required affidavits.
Should the manufacturer be unable
to Judge the amount of juice exactly
which he can extract from certain
ouantity of fruit and runs over the
stated 200 gallons, he may retain tins
,ioud provided that his explanation
convinccs the collector that the excess
was not made for sale. In addition,
anv oyer-run above 200 gallons is taxed
at the rate OF l6 cents per gallon. Col
lector saws that several people have
Maid the required 10 cents tax III Ne
| vada this year.,
The law also provides that this non
Intoxicating fruit juice cannot be
| moved from the premises on which 1t
| ;s manufactured. and cannot be sold
| ANY deviation from this ruling makes
| the fruit juice subject to contiscatloh
and It's owner subject to the penalties
of the prohibition act The manutac@
turer is entitled, however. to deal ou'
his product to friends, other than ms
immediate family, but not for any
remuneration.
Available statistics Of the Southern
Pacific Company also indicate that
western Nevada. although not grape
growing country, has liking Tor the
fruit OF the vine.
Reno. being the largest city in the
state. naturally received the greatest
quantity OF grapes Forty-tour cars
were unloaded in Reno Seven cars
went to Sparks, five to Dayton, two to
lVcrdi. two to Mound House and one
to Wadsworth Several other cars
went to eastern towns, officials say,
but the figures were. not readily
lavailable.

"a HIS is our day of thanksgiving
~ To God-because we are living,
Free men in the freedom of air,
In the eternal blue freedo moi sea.
In the limitless freedom of prairies
Boundlessly free.
To-day be our praise and our prayer
To our fathers of old,
And the God of their bended knee:
To our fathers be filial praise
For their spirit steadfast and pure.
And to God be our prayer to endure
In their ancient upright ways.
There are voices of blood, and ruin,
And torches Of hate,
That cry out and flame
'Gainst the walls Of our -builded state
Foul tongues Of false prophets defame
