dressed to Compatibility Publishing
Co., printers Of the Daily Worker
and to Smith, calling on each of them
to appear and answer some unknown
and unstated charge in the circuit

The charge is brought by Floyd
Broughton, chief deputy sheriff of
Bell County and the actual head Of

gunner who have spread terror dur
ing this strike equal almost to that in
Harlan County.
The Broughton family have held
and snapped around county office,
sheriff, clerk, county attorney, ETC.,
for 25 years. When the elder Brough-
ton died recently, he was high
sheriff. His wife succeeded to his
unfinished term, and Chief Deputy
Floyd Brouglton is her son.
Floyd wants to run for sheriff him
self in the next election. He wants
the miners to vote for him. While
the strike and the operators terror,

of meetings with machine guns, evic-
tons, arrests and frame-up were
mainly in Harlan County, Floyd
Broughton ran around telling the
strikers he was all for them and
like that could happen in Bel
County. In particular he assured
the miners that he would never let
the Harlan gun thugs, their hands
reeking with murder, come into Bell
County.
But the strike took firm hold in
Bell County, and the operators is

American Spirit Shown
in Washington's Order

In the darkest hour of the Ameri-
can Revolution, at Valley Forge, Gen.
George Washington made December
II, 1777, Thanksgiving day by general
order. That spirit eventually broke
the American power of the British
crown. In the Presidency, Washing
ton proclaimed the celebration, though
his example was followed only occa-
sionally by other Presidents and the
states had no uniform rule of Observ-
ance. 1t was a growth. Notable and
significant of the meaning is the fact
that in 1864, with the nation yet en-
quilted in the Civil war, exhausted,
bankrupt, President Lincoln issued the
Thanksgiving proclamation which
since has been repeated year after
year by succeeding Presidents. The
South long repulsed the feast as a
Puritanical. even, therefore, Satani-
cal invention; yet for half a century
the South. too, has known the spiria
and has joined to make the day one OF
national participation.

THANKSGIVING:
A Parable

THE frail boats of these Pilgrims
L had been delivered from the vast
and tumultuous masses of the dark
sea. Under the frowning battlements
of the black forest they lifted their
roof trees and muscled their walls
with oak, laid open the new soil and
cast the shining grain, forgetful in
labor and hope of their great loneh-
ness.
AND now their strong, small cabins
"A stood, scanned with snow, in the
utter whiteness of the clearing. The
blue smoke of their sturdy chimneys
drifted warmly against the black wall
of the wilderness and their hearths
were ruddy with deep embers.
THE harvest was bountiful. The
L dark barns were musty with msiz>
and bullying pumpkins glowed in the
light of the candle. The walls of the
cabins were festooned with dry herbs
and at each door hung the frozen car
cass of wild beast.
THE dark ocean Numbered with
l. winter storms. The vast wilder
ness frowned. Death lurked in the
forest and the clearing. Men had died
from ak wounds and arrows. Children
had persisted of starvation and disease
and young wives had died in mother
hood. Over each door hung the weap-
ons of hunt and warfare. Life was
grim and heroic with Odyssean I'M
certainty.
DUT there were the rooftree and the
ID precious fire, grain in the bin and
the stripped carcass by the door. This
was their home; only death could dis
possess them. Their minds and their
hearts were their own and not even
death could dispossess them. Here a
man might speak as he pleased and
pray as he pleased. He could not ask
for more, having known the wrongs of
oppression and the terrors of the wide
sea and a strange land.
AND so a day was set aside for
"A Thanksgiving to God for His
great goodness, for the boon of life,
for rooftree and fire and food and the
privilege of the thankful heart. On
that day, between the stormy sea and
the awful wilderness, these people
sang and Toasted on the small bounty
of the first harvest.

CITES NEED
FOR HAND SIGNALING
Says Accidents Would Be Les
sened by Following Rules

Calling attention to disregard of
hand signaling, E. Austin Baughman,
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles,
points out the necessity of autoists to
acquaint themselves with three minor
signals which would lessen the num-
Der of accidents in the towns and the
cities as well as upon the highways.
Following the report last week that
an increasing number of accidents
had been caused by the disregard of
hand signals, Mr.. Baughman said:
eff autoists would follow the simple
and reasonable system of signals
many accidents could be avoided. For
instance, the straight extended left
arm with the finger pointing to the
left cannot mean anything but that
the operator is going to make left
hand turn. In doing this the driver
should ease himself over to as near the
middle of the street as possible.
"The signal for right-hand turn,
tina tof extending the arm we'll out so
that it can be seen from the rear and
making a slowly circling forward
movement with the forearm, is equally
easy to understand.
"When this signal is made and the
intention is to turn right the operator
should draw as close to the curb ON
the right-hand side of the street as
possible as he approaches the inter-
section.
"This will clearly indicate to the
following cars come on; l am getting"

Thanks!

For all the hands that wrought for US,
For all the minds that thought for us,
For all the men who looked ahead
And saw us living in their stead;
For kindly hands that SOW for US
And shining fields that grow for us,
For all the thoughtfulness of toll
And all the benisons of soil,

To dream and hope, to work and give,
With eyes beyond and hearts to bless
A world of so much loneliness.

International Hay and Grain Show
Maryland producers of superior
farm crops are planning to make g
strong showing in the competitive
classes of the 1882 International Hay
and Grain Show, which will be held in
Chicago from November 26 to Decem-
Der in connection with the Interna-
tional Livestock Exposition. F. W..
Oldenburg, agronomist for the Uni
versity of Maryland Extension Ser
vice, is assisting in the work of select
ing the best possible display of sam
pies from Maryland to be shown at
Chicago this year. According to Mr..
Oldenburg, new classes have been adj
ded by the International management
for smoother types of corn which
have not been included in former
years.
The winnings of Maryland exhibit
ors at previous Internationals have
demonstrated that this State can pro-
duce as high quality crops as any
place in the continent.
Feeding Wheat to Hogs
When wheat is low in price or dam
aged by insects, it may be more profit
able to market it through feeding it
to hogs than by selling the grain; the
way to secure a large and efficient
utilization of ground wheat by hogs
is to supplement the grain with a high
protein feed, or pasture, or both. This
provides a ration that gives good
growth and calls for a continuously
increasing amount of feed, it is stated
by B. E. Carmichael, animal husband
man for the University of Maryland
Experiment Station, in a new bulle-
tin, Feeding Wheat to Fattening
Hogs"
Experiments conducted at the Uni
versity, according to the author,
showed the use of a high-protein sup
plement resulted in a 81 percent lar
ger consumption of feed and the use
of both high protein supplement
and abundant pasture gave 81 per
cent larger consumption OF feed aside
from the pasture, as compared with
the use of only ground wheat and min
erals in dry lot. The use of abundant
pasture along with wheat and miner
ais resulted in a 81 percent larger feed
consumption aside from pasture, as
compared with the use of wheat and
minerals in dry lot.
No substantial advantage was found
in feeding ground wheat and shelled
corn together as compared with feed
ing either of these feeds separately.
A mixture of equal parts of shelled
corn and ground wheat was superior
to shelled corn but was less efficient
than ground wheat.
Whole wheat, according to Mr.. Car
michael, was found to be more palata-
BILE than either ground wheat or
shelled corn and ground wheat was
fully as suitable over moderately
long feeding period as shelled corn,
when each is supplemented by min
erals and fish meal.
Copies of the new bulletin may be
secured free of charge by writing the
Experiment Station at College Park,
and asking for Bulletin 1856.
