SELF-CONTROL

The simple process of practicing self
control is as beneficial as it is astonishing.
In little while those of us who succeed in
obtaining mastery of our emotions, our
glib tongue, our strutting pride and our
Incidence, find ourselves in new world.
We wonder at the agreeableness of our
friends, the loveliness Of the blossoms, the
sweet songs of the birds and the thousands
of beautiful things all about us which
heretofore we have passed without notice.
At last we have succeeded in pulling
an old mask from our face and we are
able to smile. We have in some way
conquered our stubborn spirit and found
a grain of faith-faith in ourselves and
in our intimates.
We are changed and the whole world
is changed with us.
1t is when we realize this that we ex-
perience great dash of joy, rhymed in
Lydian measures and tuned in sweetest
keys.
We soar on the wings of the dove. We
have risen high above the bogs and quag-
mires.
We have come from a state between
sleep and waking. Our vision is clear.
Our mind is alert, appreciative, consider
ate and Kindly disposed. Our thoughts
fly straight to the mark, never diverted
by ill-humor or violent rush of hot
blood.
In some indescribable manner a burden
has slipped from our CALLED shoulders, and
we are buoyant, happy, unconquerable.
The ruling forces of the universe have
taken hold of u.s. while other and lower
forces are losing ground. Affection, senti-
ment and compassion have become parts
of our disposition.
The control of impulse has grown per-

THE REAL SPIRIT OF
THANKGIVING

After having devoted so much of our
time to bemoaning the misfortunss that
have come to us, it will do US good on this
Thanksgiving day to stop and look at the
other side of the ledger and cast up the
account of the good things that have come
to us.
Our situation admittedly has not been
as favorable in many respects as we could
desire. We have had problems and diff
culties which naturally aroused dissatis-
faction and discomfort. We have been
feeling mighty sorry for ourselves.
Perhaps Thanksgiving occasion could
bring no greater blessing to us than to
readjust our perspective and displace
pessimism with new spirit of optimism.
Before we enter into the true spirit of
the day it is necessary to put away our
hatreds, our grouches and discontents and
center our thoughts upon the blessings that
have come. If one would give thanks he
must realize the fact of having been
blessed and in doing so he minimizes the
misfortunes he has experienced. The
pessimist is in no position to give thanks.
The spirit of optimism will possess US to
the extent that we are able to give thanks
in spirit and in truth to the Giver of All
Good Gifts today.
This Thanksgiving day, if observed in
the spirit of those who inaugurated it, is
capable of lifting our spirit and thought
to new heights and of ushering in a new
era of contentment and happiness.
Thanksgiving day comes to mean today
not only an occasion when we may ex-
press our gratitude to the Most High for
His care and kindness in the past, but
likewise time when by marshaling our
blessings before US we are inspired with
new hope and courage for the future and,
in these the most trying adverse conditions
and circumstances, feel grateful that there
is One to whom we can always turn and
receive comfort.

Thanksgiving

m HERE is something about
" the mental act of thanks
giving that seems to carry the
human mind far beyond the re-
gion of doubt into the clear at
mosphere of faith and trust,
where call things are possible.
Even if at first you are not con-
scious of having received any
thing from God, do not worry
or cease from your thanksgiv-
ing. Do not 60 back of it again
to the asking, but continue CIV
ing thanks that while you
waited you did receive, and that
it is now manifest; and believe
me, you will soon rejoice and.
give thanks, not rigidly from
sense of duty, but because of the
sure manifest fulfllment of
your desire.

We are enslaved no more by the harpies

control, the careful and continuous exer-
ton of will-power has set us free.
Where formerly we moved about with
dour faces we new go with beaming
smiles; where in other days we were met
with rebuffs we are given CHEEKY recep-

THE FEAST OF THE PILGRIMS
(Continued from page y

been yearly one since.
1t is claimed that the authorities of Har-
ward college were the first promoters of
the movement to fix set date for Thanks
giving in the New England states. Until
1880 the holiday had been celebrated, off
and on, in winter or summer, just as the
spirit moved the colonists. In consequence
of this all sorts of disorder prevailed
among the college students because some
portion of them was celebrating Thanks
giving the whole year round. When a
day was set for the feast in the place
where student lived, of course he wanted
to be there, and equally of course his par
ents wanted him. There was no way to
prevent this state of affairs, so the wisdom
of the Harvard professors was levied upon
for way to abolish it. Their cogita-
tons resulted in the proposition to advo-
cate fixed date, and they gave it wide
spread publicity. The colonists saw the
good sense of the change, and the colonial
governors finally concurred in making the
last Thursday of the eleventh month the
the regular Thanksgiving day.
So widespread has the observance of
that first, and now historic feast become,
that wherever Americans congregate the
wide world over the last Thursday in
November finds the Stars and Stripes flung
to the breeze and our countrymen in
China, Russia, France, England, and even
in the wilds of Africa gather around a
bounteous board and thank the Giver of
All Good for the progress and prosperity
which have attended their efforts to found
a great nation under His guidance.

TREASURY SAVINGS
CERTIFICATES


fective December /, 1928, the Treasury
will place on sale new offering of
Treasury Savings Certificates, to be known
as the issue of December /, 1928, and will
discontinue at the close of business on
November 80, 1928 the sale of Treasury
Savings Certificates, issue of September
80, 1922. The new Certificates will be
issued in denominations of SIS, $500 and
$1,000 (maturity value), at the following
prices. $40 for the SIS Certificates, $50
for the $1OO Certificates, and $500 for the
$1,000 Certificates.
Apart from the selling price, the new
Certificates will correspond, in all essen
tial respects to the Certificates now on
sale. Each Certificate natures five years
from the date of issue, but may be re-
deemed at the option of the holder at any
time after the date of issue, at the value
indicated on the back of the certificate.
The Certificates are issued only in regis
tered form in order to afford protection
against loss and theft, and are exempt
from the Normal Federal Income Tax and
from all State and Local Taxation Except
estate and inheritance taxes). The ag-
gregate amount of Treasury Savings Ger
tiicates of any one series that may be held
by any one person at any one time is
limited to $4,000 (maturity value), and
for this purpose Certificates issued within
any one calendar year, whatever the issue
or the issue price, constitute one series.
The new Certificates will be on sale at
about 100000 postof1ices throughout the
country beginning December 1, 1928 and
they may also be obtained at Federal Re-
serve Banks and branches, or such banks
and other agencies as may qualify for the
purpose, and mail applications addressed
to the Treasurer of the United States,
Washington, D. c. will receive prompt
attention. This new offering, which is be-
ing made in connection with the redemp-
ton and exchange of about $60,000,000
of War Savings Certificates, Series of
1919, which mature on January 1, 1924,
will afford the holders of the maturing
Certificates an opportunity to continue
their investment in an attractive Govern
ment Security, and should further en-
courage thrift among small investors.
Treasury Savings Certificates fulfill
purpose" said Secretary Mellon today.
"The money which the Treasury is re-
ceiving from their sale is the best possible
money to get into government securities,
partly because they are better distributed
among the people than perhaps any other
form of Government security, and partly
because of what their sale can accomplish
in combating the spread of fraudulent in
vestments. I believe that the greater the
rumber of holders of Governments Sc
curities the greater the number of. good
citizens that Government will have.
Treasury Savings Certificates give to the
man or woman who can save only little
at time an opportunity to invest in
security as safe and with as good an in
terest return, all things considered, as
other investments give to the man of

TIDINESS WILL MAKE
IRONING DAY EASIER
Confusion Detracts From Good
Results and Worker Will Tire
More Quickly.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Without realizing 1t one may be
tired by dlsorderly and confused sur
roundings, whether at work or not,
and for the same reason one may get
through a relatively hard task with
out undue fatigue If 1t is performed
under pleasant, orderly conditions.
While the unwashed dishes, the food
standing about, the mans overcoat
inappropriately hung in the kitchen,
and the torn ironing board cover may
not actually interfere with rapid work,
the general atmosphere of confusion
detracts from good results and the
worker is undoubtedly more tired at
the end of the time she has spent
ironing than the one in the picture
Time is often lost making room among
a collection of untidy articles, and as
there is neither hamper for pile OF
dampened clothes nor clotheshorse
for those that have been ironed, the
housewife will have to stop occasional
ly and move these garments to make
room for others.
1t is important to have the ironing
board steady and placed at the right
height. A clean, well-padded ironing
board or table set at the comfortable
working height from the floor requires
the expenditure of less energy for iron
ing. If 1t is possible to sit down to
most of this task. the back will not be
so tired as If one stands continually.
The ironing board cover should he fit
ted snugly on the board without wrin-
kles and not allowed to sag.
Standing with ones back to the

Bread and cakes should be kept in a
ventilated box, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture reminds the
housewife. Hot bread should not be
wrapped Immediately. The moisture
of fresh bread causes molds to form.
The bread box should be scalded once
week, wiped dry, and summed.
Crackers and cookies, on the other
hand, lose their crispness, by absorb
ing moisture from the air. They

a clotheshorse on which to spread the
freshly ironed garments to dry and air
virtually undoes half the work that
has been done, for slightly moist gar
ments piled together crush and crease
quite badly.
In the picture the board is placed
at the best height for the work, both
sitting and standing. 1t has an ex'
tendable leg to rest on, and is hinged
permanently in place so that when not
in use it can be folded back into a
small fiat closet out of the way. The
sprinkled clothes, ready to iron, are
rolled up and covered in the hamper,
and there is a clotheshorse which the
ironer can reach by merely turning
around. The board is set as near as
possible to the stove where the irons
are heating, and light from the win
dow falls across the work.
Several other points might be men
toned in connection with making iron
ing less of a drudgery, points out the
UnlteQ states department VI ASiSui'
ture. Clean, smooth irons should be
used. Rubbing them occasionally with
wax or paraffin will keep them in good
condition. Rusty or dirty irons should
be secured with sand, soap or bath
brick. washed, wiped dry, heated,
waxed and rubbed smooth.
Fabrics should be ironed If possible
with the lengthwise thread, as large
space as possible being ironed at one
time. Most materials look best II
ironed thoroughly dry. Parts that dry
quickly and that will hang off the
board when finished should be ironed
first. Cuffs and sleeves, collars and
drapes or ruffies on skirts are best
ironed before the main part of the
garment. For silks, woolens and col
ored materials, medium-hot irons
should be used. All these materials
should be ironed on the wrong side,
except aprons and children's dresses
that need smooth surface to keep
clean longer. Silks and woolens may
be ironed on the right side if covered
with dampened cheesecloth.
