THANKSGIVING PARTIES

There were undoubtedly q mum
Der Of Thanksgiving dinner par
ties, both in Wolf Point and in
the surrounding country. 1t would
be nice if The Herald could make
brief mention of every one OF
them, but we know We are going
to miss a lot of these pleasant
social affairs unless our readers
will be kind enough to tell us
about them. Won't you do this so
that we a have a bright, newsy
paper for next week. Don't think
that you are putting yourself for
ward If you phone or write in an
account Of your party. The other
people like to read about it just
as much as you like to read about
other peoples dinner parties. And
this goes not only for Thanksgiy-
ing dinners, but for other social
affairs as well.

Corrections In Last
Weeks Court Story

The Herald inadvertently made
some errors in the story of the
law and motion day session of
court last week.
In the item regarding the guar
dianship of Louis and Chester
Pickthorn it would read; an ad-
ditional SIS was allowed for med
ical attention, or as much of that
amount as necessary, instead of
medical attention "and other nee
essities".
Another item should have read:
a decree of foreclosure by de-
fault was entered in the mortgage
suit Of Henry N. Shaver against
Joseph Poitra.

Exchanging Spirit
of Thanksgiving

Centuries have wrought changes
In the customs of Thanksgiving day
in America, but the spirit of the
occasion remains the same, Will
liam Herschell comments, in the
Indianapolis News. We may not
20 over the woods to grandmoth-
er's house in a one-horse open
sleigh. owing to the fact that the
venerable gentleman and grand
mother have announced their in
tention of motoring to the city for
thanksgiving dinner in a hotel.
There is not room for feastin- in
a two-room apartment with kitch-
enette. such as their children occu-
DIV i'm the city; therefore the hotel
becomes the center of a family re
union. Dinner over, the ensemble
HES away to q movie or to 4 foot

All this In broad contrast with
the situation when Governor Brad
ford of Massachusetts proclaimed
a day of thanksgiving and prayer
in 1921, the purpose being to thank
Providence for a harvest that had
been saved from ~marauding In
dams only through eternal vigi-
lance and trusty rifles.
George Washington is credited
with being the first President to
proclaim a day of Thanksgiving.
The congress, in 1884, recommend
cd that a day be set apart for
prayerful expression of gratitude
because OF the return of peace
Washington again appointed such
a day in 1889, after the Constitu-
ton had been adopted. Still anoth-
or period Of rejoicing and prayer
was observed in 1875, based on the
many benefits derived from a good
harvest and growing prosperity.
The last Thursday in November
was the generally accepted day for
this expression of gratitude, and
President Madison followed Wash
ington's example in proclaimins a
day of thanksgiving. Then the Gus
tom died out, and was not renewed
until President Lincoln, 1868, called
on the nation to bow before God In
humbleness and prayer. The Civil
war then was at it's height. Every
President since Lincoln has on
tinued to proclaim the last Thurs
day in November as Thanksgiving
day, and the occasion is observed
In metropolis and countryside alike.
although the manner of Observ-
ance may be vastly different.
In the rural districts, particular
~. in the West. Middle West and
South, many of the customs of the
f%orefathers still prevail, although
the advent of the automobile has
brought great changes.
