Washington, November 16-Visit-
ors at the White House find it diff
cult to find a clue from the Presi-
dent as to the contents of his an
nual message to Congress. Many of
them discover that instead of going
to the well and pumping information
they have been very adroitly inter
viewed as to their opinions on nat
ional and international issues. OF
course the advantages is with the
President in these conferences, as it
is not quite proper to interrogate
the Chief Executive under his own
roof. Even the Cabinet remains in
the dark as to the Presidents aims
and detectives. There is no certain
ty that the President will accept
their suggestions as to recommend
atoms to Congress. Therefore,
Cabinet members do not usually
know the contents Of the Presidents
message until it is actually deliver
ed to the Congress.
The President has the privilege of
sending his message to Congress or
delivering it in person. It has been
indicated at the White House that

Mr.. Coolidge will have the message
read by reading clerks in the Senate
and House this year. Secretary
Hoover has been in conference with
the President and no. doubt many OF
his suggestions as to flood relief,
tariffs, and aeronautics will find
their way into the annual message.
Aviation has achieved widespread
popularity since Congress adjourned
and more than passing interest will
be manifested in the subject at this
session. Many legislators who would
not ordinarily acquaint themselves
with aviation matters are now CIV
ing special attention to the question
of airports. Various communities
realize that in a short time CONNER
cial flying will be extended to all
parts of the country and become a
business proposition instead of
novelty. Many localities are offering
free airport sites and are endeavor-
ing, in some instances, to have the
government establish stations in
their vicinity. Hence, the unusual
activity of congressman.
It now seems assured that legis-
lation dealing with flood relief
will be expedited at the next session.
The disaster which overlook New
England shows quite clearly that
floods are impartial in bringing ruin
to- various sections. 1t is known
fact that the East was more or less
Indifferent to the plans for flood
control through legislation, although
generous in it's sympathy and finan-
,ial assistance during the time OF
he disaster. Now that the sectional
bias has largely disappeared, the
political opportunities who were
planning to capitalize on this legls-
alton and grab off some pork
uch as special appropriations for
ridges, highways, ect., in their par
ocular localities will find them
elves blocked. It is an old political
rick to have a certain vote for (
egislation provided they can attach
rider" to the bill which will give
hem political patronage in their I
ommunity. So many states are af-
ected by the flood relief that party
mes and sectional feeling undoubt- .
dly will be wiped out when the :
,gislation is before Congress.
Among the many other subjects
cling brought to the fore as the
me draws near for Congress to
1nvene is our merchant marine. l.
representative Martin B. Madden of /
hicago, who is an ardent advocate
a strong merchant marine, is in
.vor of lending government money
private enterprise for the purpose
shipbuilding. He is emphatic in
S view that the American mer-
liant marine should be privately
,ntrolled. However, Mr.. Madden
ill insist that private enterprise
free to replace ships built with
,vernment funds when they wear
1t. Also, that such ships be avail
lie as an auxiliary to the Navy if
e need for such use arises.

DO WE have the courage, or the
sense, to face our own shortcomings
to admit to ourselves and to all con-
cerned our errors and mistakes?
If we do not have, there is little
chance that we shall ever be much
better equipped to fight our battles
than we are today.
Only obstinacy refuses to confess
error and only vanity declines to
admit defeat. Obstinacy and vanity
are drags upon the chariot of pro-
gress. Unless we cut them loose
we do not get very far.
The same truth holds for the in
dividual, the group, the community,
the nation. History is replete with
instances of fine heads battered a.
gainst the impenetrable wall of I'M
alterable fact, of fine causes lost by
enthusiasts who chung tenaciously
to original error, of cities stunted
because they were too proud to
change their habits, of nations
wrecked upon the shoals of their
selfish desire.
There is no shame in admitting |
failure or mistake, either to our
selves or to observers. We cannot
long delude those who watch, and
they will respect us the more highly
# we frankly confess, when we muff
he bali. that it was our fault.
AS long as we are not too vain to
ace the facts of our conduct there
S hope for us. But we will never

IS long as we hypnotic ourselves

We have just struck out.

A SACRED ANNIVERSARY

The 10th, anniversary has just oc-
cured of the first loss of life of
American soldiers killed in France.
These first martyrs in the cause of
free government met their end in a
raid of German soldiers at Artois.
Many thoHsands of brave men fol-
lowed these first who gave their
lives for the country. The sacrifice
brought life long sorrows to their
families and friends, but these men
are forever honored in our history.
The greatness of our country is
largely due to the fact that our peo-
pie have loved it so dearly, that they
would dare and risk all to preserve
it safe and free.
So@
There are some persons who seem
to prefer failure to minding their
own business.

When boys are taken out Of school
at a too early age that they may go

Judgment to make good use of the
money they earn. With their own

THANKSGIYING TDIE


Much of the spirit of the old time
THANKSGIVING day. holiday has gone
and vet much of it remains. 1t was
originally a day of genuine religious
observance, in which out OF full
hearts people rendered thanks 10
the divine power that had brought
them safely through many troubles
They did not have to be begged ana
implored to go to church or to Of
fer prayers of thankfulness. Sucn
expressions came naturally without
effort.
Much of that spirit to-day is lost.
Even the multitudes of people VINO
have a strong religious feeling, are
ant to be too busy with their own
holidays doings on Thanksgiving day
so that they do not attend the
church services, and they may give
scarcely a thought to this element
of grateful recognition of blessings.
It is well to remember that for
most of us anyway, life brings much
cause for gratitude. If we stop to
look at our troubles and then at the
things that bring us happiness, we
find that for the most part the joys
predominate. 1t seems rather hard
and unfeeling not to render prayer
of thanksgiving to the author of all
good.
While these sentiments are weak
er than they should be, Thanksgiv-
ing day still brings millions OF
families together in happy reunions.
Our families are scattered all over
the country, and it is not possible
to assemble the children and the
sisters and cousins and aunts as
was formerly done when they all
dwelt close by the old home. Now
many of them are hundreds and
of miles away.
But the automobile makes such
gatherings more possible for many
of us. It is a relatively easy thing
now to go home a hundred or two
miles. The young people should
take considerable pains to keep up
this holiday custom. These home
comings mean more to their older
folks here in Delaware than the
generation realizes.

THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY

THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY
Many of the sweetest joys of our
American homesteads have always
clustered about the Thanksgiving
day observance. AS time when
families are reunited, when old and
young again hear those loved voices
from which time and circumstances
have parted them, it stirs the deep
est feelings of the human heart.
Modern life sends the young peo-
pie out in the world, usually some
distance from home, and old fash
toned family life is partly broke up
Much OF fthe old helpfulness between
narents and children consequently
disappears. 1t is worth making
big effort to keep up the ThanKs-
giving day reunions. And as we
gather. let us not forget to say some
words of thankfulness to the power
that so far has guided and kept u.s.

ALASKA FISH LAWS
 REMAIN ABOUT SAME
ONLY FEW MINOR CHANGES FOR TERRITORIAL WATERS ARE
 MADE

No extensive changes in fishing regulations for Alaska in the coming year have been provided, according to an announcement from Washing ton, published in the Ketchikan Chronicle, but the minor changes are numerous and important enough to require checking by those who fish in the Territorial areas. Con- sidering Alaska as a whole, the new regulations prohibit commercial fish, ing in II additional places and open three areas previously closed up. There also have been a few changes in area boundaries. All 12 areas be- fore established are continued by new rules which became effective January 1.
 The Alaska salmon pack for 1926 is placed at 6,5OO,0OO cases, which substantially equals the peak year of 1918. While the escapment for fu- ture fishing is regarded as satisfact- ory, the Fisheries Bureau draws at- tention to the pink salmon pack as Illustrating the working of the regu- lations, which went into effect in 1924. As this variety natures iu two years, the catch this year was the progeny of the salmon that ran the gauntlet under the bureaus regula- tions. The pack this year was materially larger than ever before.
