The approach of Thanksgiving brings
to mind the many things we again have
to be thankful for. Nature has again
been especially bountiful in her rewards
for the efforts of those who engage in
agricultural pursuits The bean crop is
saved and that alone is cause for general
Thanksgiving in the Filler country Pros
perity is with us again, we live in land
of plenty, free of pestilence of every kind
and we have every just cause to rejoice
and be thankful on the National day of
Thanksgiving.
An account in good, strong bank like
this one will give you added cause for
thanksgiving; think it over.

Rev. Laurence Sterne and Lady
Percy,

The author of "Tristram Shandy"
and "A Sentimental Journey" may be
imagined to have been anything but
reserved in the affairs of the heart,
despite the fact that he WAS a clergy
man. And he was a rather gay lover.
He loved several women whose name 8
are known today because of their as
sociation with the classic humorist
and one of them he married-Eliza-
beth Lumley. Among examples OF
his heart correspondence, however.
ono of the most characteristic letters
was written to the Lady Percy. 1t be-
gins:
There is a strange mechanical eff
doux, written a stone cast of the lady
who engrosses the heart and soul of

This Is another Of the few High
land clan names which. though borne
by Celtic families, trace back to an
origin In Normandy.
All OF these clan names were formed
IN the same way-by knights and no.
bles from the army of William the
Conqueror or the sons OF such fol-
lowers. who. either to strengthen the
foreign relations Of the conQueror or
because they were not satisfied with
the spoils of war which fell to their
lot In conquered England, sought their
fortunes in the north at the court Of
the Scottish king.
They were, as might be expected
men with regulations as mighty
fighters. and as they were indepen-
dent of blood relationship with the
factions around the throne. they were,
of course, welcome additions always
to the royal Scottish organization.
But the Frasers. like the others.
quickly formed alliances by marriage.
and. adapting themselves to the GUS
toms OF the Baels upon receiving
grants Of land in the Highlands, rap
idly assumed leadership of existing
clans and gathered around them clan
organizations which they strove to
make more powerful.
The Fraers are found first settled
in Tweedale during the reign Of NAL
colin III. They got their foothold in
the Highlands through marriages
into families of the Orkneys and
CaithneSs chieftains
The original Norman form OF the
name was de Frisell" or "Frasell."
and simply denoted overlordship of
place of that name in Normandy. be-
ing a family name only in the sense
that II was hereditary because the
feudal power was hereditary and de-

BIacky the Crow Is Upset.
All in q minute things may change
And all our plans may disarrange.
-ElackH the Gro,

Blacky the Crow prides himself on
knowing pretty much all that is 60
ing on in the Green Forest and on the
Green Meadows. Those sharp eyes
of his miss very little. And because
he travels back and forth over a con-
iderable distance every day he sees
more OF what is going on than even
his inQuisitive cousin, Sammy Jay.
But even such sharp eyes as those
of Blacky sometimes miss things. No
one can know everything. which. after
all, is just as well. So il happens
that once in a while Blacky misses
something almost under his very bill.
When he finally discovers it he is al
ways quite upset. You see. his pride
is always hurt.
B!acky had spent the winter nights
in a certain clump Of hemlock trees.
where he was well protected. even
afternoon, just before the Black
Shadows came creeping through the
Green Forest. Blacky would hide
away among the branches of one of
those trees. Early every morning he
would start out in search Of food
Every day he visited the Big River.
for he often found things to eat
along the edge of the Big River when
it was not frozen. Even when il was
frozen there usually were one or two
tied these. in the hope of finding
something washed UP on the ice that
he could eat. Getting a living was
hard work. and Blacky spent most of
his time hunting for enough to keep
him alive.
He had little or no time for salts
flying idle curiosity or for visiting
places where there was no chance OF
finding food. So 1t happened that for
some time Blacky had not even been
and Mrs. Blacky had raised their
family the summer before. They had
no use for that nest now. but still he
regarded it as their special property.
He and Mrs Blacky had built it. and
very fine nest 1t had been. 1t was
some distance from the place where
Blacky roasted nights. and SO to go
over there was considerably out of
his way.
But now the winter would soon be
over Blacky found his thoughts turn
ing to the coming of spring and nest
ing. He and Mrs. Blacky were al
ready making plans. They had de-
cided that they would get an early
start this year. They talked about ii
a great deal. They argued about
part OF the Green Forest or build
new nest near the old one or fix the
old one up.
1t happened that one day they were
unusually fortunate In finding plenty
of food. and so returned to the Green
Forest early in the afternoon. Having
nothing in particular to do, Blacky
suggested that they go over to their
old nest and see how it looked after
all the winter storms. Mrs. Blacky
was quite willing, and so with Blacky
in the lead they started.
They kept their tongues still as
they flew. Blacky and his relatives
are naturally noisy. but when they
are near their nesting place they are
always silent. So Blacky and Mrs.
Blacky kept their tongues still as
they winged their way above the trees
straight toward their old nest. Mrs.
Blacky stopped to investigate some

broom slowly wears down. grows
hard and unyielding and finally balks
entirely
How to give longer life TO the
broom is one OF the points in the
higher education of the housewife.
A housekeeper of ripe years and long
experience once told me that by
broom might be made to last several
months longer than It's ordinary lease
of life.
I'VE all know" she said. that we
must stand or hang. broom with its
straws up. so that they do not become
broken or bent by bearing the weight
of the broom. But how many young
housewives know that when a broom
is dampened for the purpose of fresh
ening rugs and arresting flying dust
1t must be promptly dried out be-
fore it is put away? Broom straws
that remain wet for several hours
lose all their crispness and become
soggy and soft.
"Another thing-a broom should be
carefully welded from alternate
same side of the broom. it soon gets
fiat at one corner and worn to a
sharp point at the other. and its
straws strike the floor not with the
II welded both ways. 1t keeps its
shape and sweeps straight.
when a broom really begins to
wear down so that 1t has no fe1i-
bility I give it this treatment: With
sharp scissors 1 cut the lowest row
of stitching that holds the straws in
place. This gives the straws more
play. Then l take the shears and
carefully clip the bottoms Of the
straws so that all the broken, bent
ends are cut off and straight square
edge is secured. A broom so treated
Is good for many extra weeks of
service"

The Germless Theory.

These extremely plausible new
tangled healers who disappear from
the barber shop or the shoe store in
January and bob up in April full
nedged and ready to punch your
$1.69 the punch, get off some telling
remarks in the appeal to the prospect
about the germ theory"
1t seems that Mrs. Shut Inn must
have any line of treatment fully ex-
planned to her before she will take a
ticket. just as the eminent chemist
explains to the luckless housekeeper,
with one foot thrust into the front
door. precisely why she should use
baking powder packed only, in a vio-
or yellow box stuff. So the germ
theory" has to stand some furious
assaults.
Isn't it ridiculous that the poor, de-
luded doctor, with his pills and po-
tions"-not a pill nor potion in the
list that will seriously disturb an
alleged disease germ at work-should
harbar such theory in these days
Of shortcut learning? And. worse
still, how inconsistent it is Of modern
scientists that when they wish to
study a disease they simply admin
lister some of the germs of the dis
ease to q susceptible animal and de-
velop q case 20 order?
Students Of history will recall that
Gen. Braddock took no stock in the
Indian theory" of young George
Washington and other advisers on the
occasion of the expedition from the
colony OF Virginia against the French
ut Fort Duquesne. Poor Braddock
and most OF his "disciplined troops"
paid with their lives for their ignor-
ance OF Indian warfare.
have never known any one to
attack the germ theory" or to at
tempt to cast doubt on the impor-
tance Of bacteria in the causation Of
infectious disease who did not urge
or suggest some other theory to ac-
count for disease, and as long as the
favored theory is plausible to the
untutored layman and not loudly &C.
claimed by regular physicians. any
thing a shrewd man can hatch for the
occasion will do. There Is nothing
like an appeal to the layman's "com-
mon sense" seeing he hasn't the un-
common sense which comes with q
knowledge Of science.

Large Printed Figure as Problem
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

Undoubtedly by this time you have
oecloed what you are going to do
ABOUT the large printed figure. 1t
comes or has come as a personal prob
lem to every woman. That 1t is smart
In %pite of increasing popularity one
cannot deny. The throngs at Palm
beach show no disposition to ahan-
don 1t, and hence II is a safe deduc-
t!on that 1t will remain in the mode
through the spring and summer. The
amazing interest that has spread
around the world in the opening OF
the tomb Of Tutankhamen has given
ngures. and already the shops are
showing fabrics with printed and en-
broidered designs of Egyptian origin.
Make no apologies II you decide. in
have good precedent There are
women. however. who make 1t a car
dfnal doctrine of their dress creed not
10 indulge In any outstanding design
any actress with a reputation for
good dressing at random and you may
be sure that she is included in the
list. She has learned the trick from
her knowledge of stage costumery.
And 1t Is trick that she carries with
her into the selection of most Of her
n-professional clothes as we'll Per-
haps she overemphasizes the impor-
tance of not interfering with the lines
OF the figure. You may have noticed
also that in costumes designed for the
screen figured material plays very
little part save for the costumes de-
signed especially TO cause a smile.
To be sure. such delicate tracery as
would be reproduced from brocades
or very softly printed chiffon would
not be taboo. But fashion seems to
have turned from these more subtle
designs to glaring configurations.
There are printed georgettes and fou-
lards and velvets and now the effect
OF striking design is produced by
printing on silk jersey. Sometimes
the already pronounced design on
diaphanous material is accentuated
by application of beads.
The wise dressmaker deters her
more matronly customer from making
selection of these vivid prints. The
red and white printed georgette
shown in the frock in the sketch
would make a caricature Of the over
weight matron of forty. though 1t
would be a charming addition to her
daughter of twenty. providing. of
course. she had the slenderness that
We ascribe to her youth.
