Contrasting our own lives with the lives of other
people we find no assurance that we are better
han any other peoples who live on the globe and
strive to distinguish the right from the wrong
Contrasting our good works, if you please, with
nose OF others we find no overwhelming disparity
between good men and womensspattered through
ne earth. Surely there is reason for us to pre-
June that our blessings have been bought and paid
or III any way. Certainly they have come from
some benificent Giver of good things, who has op-
med up the treasures of mankind and the richie
II the universe in many ways and heapod them
Upon understanding heads
Let Us have in Clintwood a real spirit of thanks
giving, spirit that can be expressed in individ-
lal hearts as positively as it can be demonstrated
n public gatherings. Let the spirit that comes with
lhfledltns uIon theSG thoughts dwell with us
through the coming tWelve-months, and next year.
When another day of thanks is appointed, our debt
to acknowledge and our obligation to repay will be
greater and more overwhelming than ever

WHAT THANKS GIVE WE?

THE President of the United States, the govern
ors of the states and the mayors of many cities
and towns have issued procamations, calling upon
the people of this nation to gather together on
Thanksgiving day to return grateful thanks to the
Almighty Father for the blessings that have been
poured upon this nation.
The individual citizen, if unmoved by sincere
gratitude, is appealed to by his own church to
make this national day an occasion"u upon which to
attest an appreciation for the merciful favors
which have been showered upon each of us,
personally. Surely, such occasion should bring
us a reverent attitude towards God
ClintWood has reason to return thanks in great
measure. Our citizens almost without exception
have enjoyed what seems to be powerful Divine
projections Without argument, without cavil all
OF us should be truly impressed with the happy
conditions under which we live. Are these the pro-
duct OF our own greatness, alone? Are they the
reward of our goodness alone? Do we, as individ-
uals, rank such an unmeasured preference as
seems to have fitted over and guarded life liberty
and the pursuit of happiness in the United States?

The new Ford
has a very simple and
effective
fabrication system

THE fabrication system for
the engine of the new Ford
is as simple in principle as
wafer running down-hiiI.
A gear pump in the bot
tom Of the oil pan raises the
oil to the valve chamber
reservoir. From here it
flows ON to the main crank
shaft bearings and the front
camshatt bearing. Overflow
oil drops mic the OF! pan
tray and rEns into troughs
through which the connect
ing rods pass.
AS the ends of these rods
strike the oil they scoop up
a supply for the connecting
rod bearing. AT the same
time they set up a fine spray
that lubricates the pistons
and other moving parts.
From the tray the oil runs
into the bottom of the pan,
and is again drawn up
through fine mesh screen
and pumped TO the valve
chamber.
This system is SO effective
that the five-quart contents
of the oil pan pass through
the pump tipice in every
mile when you are travelling
at only 80 miles an hour.
Yet there is only one
movable part - the ~;
oil pump. 49,

AS matter OF fact, the
fabrication system for the
new Ford Is SO simple in de-
sign and SO carefully made
that it requires practically
no service attention.
There is just one thing
for you to do, but it is a very
important thing ,cafch
size oi!i Change the oil
every 500 miles and be sure
the indicator rod never reg
listers below low (L).
If the oil level is allowed
TO fall below low, the supply
becomes insufficient to oil
all parts as they should be
oiled.
To insure best perform-
ance it is also advisable to
have the chassis of your car
fabricated every 500 miles.
This has been made easy
in the new Ford through the
use of the high pressure
grease gum system.
Proper cling and greas-
ing mean SO much to the life
of your car that they should
not be neglected or care
lossly done.

BaIIoting There Expected to

Special Dispatch to The Star.
DETROIT, October 81. - The one
question in the minds of politicians
concerning the presidential campaign
as 1t pertains to Michigan is the size
of the majority to be received by
Herbert Hoover. Republicans are
claiming Hoover will carry the. State
by a 3-to-1 vote. Democrats assert
the vote will be closer than in any
previous presidential campaign IN re-
cent history.
Admittedly the size of the majority
depends on the vote in Wayne County,
in which Detroit is situated, and If the
people in Wayne County vote with the
side making the most noise, Gov. Alfred
E. Smith will carry by a majority OF
5000, claimed by the Democrats
The Democrats have made prohibi-
ton the major issue in the county,
basing their hopes on the alleged wet
ness Of the county and large Catholic
population to put Smith ahead. The
Republicans are depending on the
nominal Republican majority of 12o,OO0
and the apparent reluctance Of John j:
Raskob to send many Of the "sinews OF
war" into Michigan.
The Republicans deny the charge
made by the Democrats that wayne
County is hopelesSly and oyerWheim-
ingly wet in sentiment and point TO the
results of a Statewide vote on State
constitutional prohibition amendment
in 1915 when the vets carried the
county by only 10000 majority. The
State at large went dry by majority
of $4,000 on the proposal. However,
since that time, national prohibition
has received many black eyes In De-
troit because of the city'S proximity
to the Canadian border and constant
trouble experienced by prohibition of1-
GERS in attempts to close bootlegglng
establishments and stop rum running
across the Detroit River
So far as the outState is concerned,
there apparently is no likelihood OF
Smith making any substantial gains. A
large majority of the voters outside OF
Detroit are Republicans who favor the
Volstead act and because of Michlganfs S
interest in the st. Lawrence waterway
project and Hoover's reported unquall-
fed stand for the st. Lawrence plans
as against Smiths uncertainty on this
project, are reported to be ready to go
to the polls and return the customary
heavy Republican majoritles.
Only three political speakers of ma
taonal prominence have spoken In
Michigan. One was Senator Borah
another was Senator Curtis, Republican
vice presidential candidate, who spoke in
Detroit the latter part of this week, and
the third was Clarence Darrow, who de-
livered an address in the interests OF
Gov. Smith two weeks ago.

IN NORTH DAKOTA
Observers Feel Women's Vote Will
Decide Election Novem-
Der 6.
speclsl pispatch to The star,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
FARGO. N. OAK, October 27.-
North Dakota can be clessed only as
doubtful this week, due to surprising
upward trend of Smith sentiment in
certain sections of the State. AS the
situation now stands, 1t seems pretty
definite that the women's vote is going
to swing the election. and in that respect
the Republican candidate has the bet
ter of it.
The Hoover-CrrtiS campaign manag-
ers, through Mrs. Minnie D. Craig, ma
tional committeewoman. representing
the Non-Partisan League Republican
and Mrs. D. L. Stewart. representing
the independents, have made
thorough women's organization reach
ing down into every precinct of all but
three counties. and they bank on the
women to put Hoover over. Smith SEN
ttment remains much stronger among
the farmers than observers believed
would be the case at this period of the
campaign.
The idea of voting for Smith as g
protest against the Republican admin
istration has taken firm hold of tn
farmers in all sections and is keeping
Democratic stock high,

PHOENIX. Ariz.. october 27.-Phoenix
is entering its firial phase of the cam
paign with conditions unchanged from
last week. Conservative political opin-
ion continues to regard Arizona as
having gone over definitely to the
Hoover column. This is based upon
polls and calculations of political
leaders who seem agreed that while
Smith will get most of the Catholic
vote, this will be more than offset by
the dry Protestant vote. registered
Democrat. which will go to Hoover.
Democratic State Chairman r. C.
Stanford, predicted that sufi1cient wet
Republicans would vote for Smith to
overcome the Democratic defections, but
as the normal Republican vote is but
10000 out of an estimated total of
$4,000, most political dopesters figure
that Hoover will gain many more
Democrats than he will lose Republicans
and that the Mormon vote, while
equally divided as to registration, is so
pronouncedly dry that Hoover viii poll
the great majority of their estimated
5000 votes. FRANCIS K. DYAS.
