cause for thankfulness this EJa year is demonstrated by
 one point outside the realm Hs of politics which Presi- N dent Hoover made in his acceptance speech last Au N gust. sf.
 T should like to digress
 for one moment" he said,
 'for an observation on the past threee years which should exhila- rate the faith of all .Americans- that Is the profund growth of the sense of social responsibility which this depression has demonstrated. Despite hardships the srevotion of our men and women to those in distress is demonstrated by the national averages of infant nor tality, general mortality, and sick ness. which are less today than in times of prosperity"
 There's something real to be thankful for--that in spite of de- pression and unemployment the national health has improved-- and a. reason why we should cele- brate a real Thanksgiving this year! The presidents brief digres- sion was no claim for any politi- cal party, but a hearty acknowl- edgement to you and me. to the men and women of all political parties. that the welfare of our neighbor Is not dead in this glori- ous land. That is something not only to be thankful for, but to feel personal pride in, too. So let's have real Thanksgiving ceiebra- tion this year, and eat to the point of repletion. for once In a way. There wiH be Thanksgiving, din- ners for everyone, if we know our American public, but the one we are goingto suggest is for the ay- craze American family which is celebrating this day of thankful ness this year.
 Make It Simple
 Have big dinner, by all means. but make 1t simple and inexpens- i've in order to have more to share with those for whom such dinners are. an event. and to live up per- sonally to the presidents words of praise. Tt can be just as merry and appetizig as in other years. but keep in mind the matter of expense. Here's the sort Of menu that we would suggest:
 Tomato BouiII0n with Olsra
 Bread Sticks
 Roast Turkey or Chicken with
 Sage Stuffing
 f
 Asparagus HOllnndaise
 Thanksgiving Ice
 Dressed Mixed Salad Greens
 Cranberry md Raisin Pie Nuts Coffee Pulled Nfinfs
 If you keep, your Thanksgiving dinner as simple as thisi you'll have both plenty to eat and the further pleasure of having also plenty to share. Don't forget that there are many families which may have to do without Thanksgiving dinners if those who have more don't re- member them. Here are the reel pes for two of the dishes on this menu which, you may not know how to make: "
 The Recipe
 Tomato ,Bonill0H with Okra l: Combine the contents of a 12, 1-2 ounce can tomato juice with one can of bouillon and the fliquor from a one-pound can of aspara- gus, rescrving the tips to be used in the asparagus Holfandaise. Add one cup water, the contents of 2 g. ounce can of okra, thinly sliced. salt and pepper to taste, and a few drops of lemon jtice. Heat thoroughly and serve irl: cups, Serves eight.

THAT they did receive such sympathy

Gen. Glassford-and we have out Of the
mouths Of veterans themselves. the eN-
dence Of his kindly influence and their
respect for his proper authority-is to
his everlasting credit
"And when It came the time that he
