ing between Madison and Lincoln.
The Southern states objected to such
days, especially by presidential proc
lamation, on the ground that they
were relics of Puritan bigotry. The
result was that during the long sup
remacy of the South and West in ma
tional affairs this festival was con-
fined chiefly to the northeastern
states.
But in 1863 the Southern States
were leagued in a confederation
against the Union and there was lit
tie protest against Lincoln's proclaim
alton. There seems to have been no
particular reason why Lincoln chose
Thursday, except it was the day
chosen by Washington and had been
a favorite day for that purpose
among the Puritans.
President Johnson, in his first
Thanksgiving proclamation, departed
from the precedent of Washington
and Lincoln and designated the first
Thursday of December, 1865" then
the following year he returned to the
last Thursday in November" and all
his successors have followed him.

THE BEARTOOTH SILVER
FOX AND FUR FARM

One of the newer, though rapidly
developing industries of Montana, is
the raising of fur bearing animals.
It's Importance is being recognized
however, by anyone who considers the
limited supply of fur that can be OBJ
tanned from animals in a wild state
due to the settlement of the nation
and the rapid decrease of wild fur
bearing animals within any particul-
ar locality or within the confines of
the United States and its possessions.
The supply from that source has
long been made inadequate to meet
the demand. Hence, the establish
ment of fur farms and study of the
methods of feeding and caring for
animals to make them commercial
success.
The Beartooth Silver Fox and Fun
Farm of Red Lodge, Montana, was
established October 7th, 1924, with
two pairs of silver foxes. Then thru
selective mating, scientific feeding
and adding new blood from time tC
time. have developed what is now
known as the COLLY strain Of silver
black foxes, recognized by their lus
trous blue-black fur, interspersec

OILING GLACIER
PARK HIGHWAYS
1880 PROGRAM

Washington, Nov. 26-All roads in
Glacier National park carrying any
considerable amount of traffic are to
be oiled next year, Congressman
Scott Leavitt has been assured by
National Parks Director Horace M.
Albright
The work during the first year will
consist for the most part of the ap-
plication of palliative oiling, the pur-
pose of which is to lay the dust and
form the basis for what is known as
the California process. 1t is possible
that the California process will be
started next year, in any event to be
completed in 1881.
Director Albright plans to press
the oiling program in Glacier park
as rapidly as possible, stating that
the plan has worked splendidly in
other parks which now have high
ways which are practically equal to
pavements. i

THANKSGIVING

This is Thanksgiving Day. We have
everything to be thankful for, peace
plenty, prosperity. But are we really
grateful, do we observe the day with
the proper attitude of reverence and
respect?
Too many of us observe this day
in a gluttonous fashion, over-working
our stomachs to the detriment of our
health, giving no thought to the true
meaning of Thanksgiving.
What should we be thankful for?
Well, for health, prosperity, peace,
attributes which may be shared in
proportion by all-great and small
alike.
Then we may be thankful that we
are Americans in all that term i'm
plies, thankful that we are citizens
of prosperous, peaceful Christian
nation, the greatest of all.
That will keep us busy all day.

Answer to Problem No. 5

must lose the six of spades. If B plays
the six Of spades, Z should play the
seven of spades and return the queen
of spades. B wins this trick and then
must lose the jack of spades.
(b) Suppose at trick No. 2, B should
play the ace of spades. B can now lead
either the nine of clubs or the trey OF
diamonds. ~ Suppose he leads the
nine of clubs. Z should win the trick
with the king of clubs and Y should
discard the four of spades. Z should
now lead the ten of spades and win the

win the balance of the tricks. If A dis
cards a club, he likewise sets up club
in rs hand and Y L must win the
balance of the tricks. If A discards a
diamond, both of VS. diamonds are
good SO once again Y L must win all OF
the tricks. (2) Suppose at trick three

with the queen ten of spades and then
lead the king of clubs on which Y
should discard the seven OF diamonds.
I should then lead heart which. \
should win and lead his king OF spades,
thus again winning the balance OF the
tricks.
If at trick three, B should lead a
spade, practically the same result would
follow and Y I would again win the
balance Of the tricks. There seems to
be no way, therefore, for A B to win
more than one trick no matter what
defense they adopt. 1t is tricky little
problem and brings out many fne
points OF defense Study it carefully.

There are no trumps and Z is in the
lead. How can Y Z win seven of the
eight tricks against any defense3
Solution: z should lead the six OF
clubs, winning the trick in Us hand
with the queen. Y should now lead the
deuce Of spades. B can either play the
five of spades or the ace of spades.
(a) Suppose he plays the five Of
spades. Z should play the ten of spades
and A follows suit. rs best play now is
the king of clubs and Y should discard
the seven of diamonds, the others fol-
lowing suit. The object of this play is
to exhaust BIS clubs before he is forced
in the lead. L should now lead the six
of hearts, winning the tricki in Us hand
with the jack. B is thus forced to dis
card. He can discard either low spade
or the trey Of diamonds. If he discards
a low spade, Y should lead the four Of
spades and B can either play the ace
or the jack. If he plays the ace, VS.
spades and the king of diamonds are
good. If he plays the jack, L should win
the trick with the queen of spades and
return the seven of spades, thus forcing
B in the lead. B must now lead a dia-
mond and Y wins the balance of the
tricks. BIS best discard, therefore, on
the jack Of hearts is the trey Of dia-
monds. Y should then lead the king of
diamonds. The object of this play is to
exhaust the diamonds in BIS hand. Y
should then lead the four of spades. B
can then play either the ace, jack or
six of spades. If he plays the ace, z
should play the queen Of spades and B
is then forced to lead up to US king

viously observed special days of
Thanksgiving, thanksgiving as an am
nual event under the auspices of the
state is legacy from the early New
England colonists, the Pathfinder ex-
plains. The early Puritans generally
selected Wednesday or Thursdays for
their festive occasions in connection
with giving thanks for an abundant
harvest, probably because they de-
sired to have them as far as possible
from the Christian Sabbath, which
they observed with severe simplicity.
After the first harvest in the fall
of 1921 the Pilgrim Fathers at Ply
mouth set aside period for feasting
and offering thanks. Four hunters
sent out by Governor Bradford re-
turned with large supply of game
for the feast Hospitality was ex-
tended to the Indians and Chief Mas
sasoit and 80 of his people came to
the festivities, which lasted three
days CONSPICUOUS among the game
birds and animals on the tables were
numerous wild turkeys, which were
then common in the woods of Mas
sachuesetts, and from this eircum-
stance arose the popular association
Eof these handsome and tasty bird:
with thanksgiving day.
Notwithstanding meager records
it is probable that the Pilgrim Faith
ers held such a feast after each har
vest. Speaking of the abundant har
vest of 1922, Gov. Bradford wrote
"For which mercie lin time conven
iente) they also sett aparte day 0
thanksgiving" A day of publ
thanksgiving in 1923 is alluded tc
and Bradford preserved a letter t
"a day of thanksgiving to our merei
full God" in 1851.
Among the Puritans of Massachu
sets Bay, however, thanksgivin
days were more solemn in their OF
servance. They appointed Februar

two years old. To develop champion

indeed an achievement.

during the tournament that shows the
