THANKSGIVING DAY

The first Thanksgiving Day observed in Amer
lea that proclaimed by Governor Bradford, of
Plymouth colony in 1921 the year following the
landing of the Pilgrims During colonial days SINH
lar observances were held on various occasions.
President Washington by proclamation set No
venber g. 1885, day of general thanksgiving but
during the early history of the Republic
vances were irregular and the several states gener
ally set their dates for holding them.
It not until 1864 under President Lincoln,
that the last Thursday settled upon as Thanks
giving Day throughout the United States.
The fixing of this date is said to have been large
ly due to the efforts of Mrs Sarah j. Hale, Amer
lean author, who began agitating for uniform an
nual date about 1840 Each year she wrote to all
state governors asking that they the last
Thursday in November, and gradually they fell in
with her idea.
On the Pilgrims first Thanksgiving Day wild
turkey formed the chief constituent of the feast
ever since turkey has been inseperably associated
with the days observance.

Formerly administrator under Henry A. Wallace.


After fifteen years. with the great majority of
the loyal citizens of this land of the free and the
home of the brave, opposing the recognition of Rus
STA, the hotbed of every radical element entirely alien
to organized government the Soviet has been recog-
nzed by President Franklin Roosevelt, the omnipo-
tent
Tuesday evenings dispatches from Washington
indicate that Mr. Roosevets recognition will go to
the extent of wping out the billions of dollars
by Uncle Sam to the Kerensky government
The Herald is backing the administration of
President Roosevelt but the editor cannot help but
wonder, after all, if the business that Big Business
Of this country will have with Russia in the future
might not have had some weight in lowering this
country to an even keel with Soviet Russia.
American ideals have descended several rungs
downward on the ladder in the latest New Deal"

THE FORGOTTEN MAN" LOST SIGHT OF IN
NEW DEAL"

Away back, years and years ago, United States
Senator, Republican, by the way whose name the
Herald editor does not call to mind in discussing
a Republican victory at the polls stated that to "the
victor belongs the spoils" and urged that all Demo
cratic rascals be turned out.
The Herald editor still believes that the rule
should hold good.
Happy days are here again" and Democratic
President and Congress in control.
We cannot conceive how any Republican post
master can expect to retain his job after his term
of office expires
National Committeeman James Wolfe, of Mime
sofa, started out vigorously to clean house" He
did amazingly well up to and when most Of his
family and relatives, and far, were cared for.
These appointments were minor jobs. Mr.. Wolfe
gathered for himself the fat office of collector of in
ternal revenue. Then he rested.
In the meantime many important Federal jobs
have been given out in Minnesota and the North
Have they gone to deserving Democrats?
Not by considerable majority.
Old line and ultra conservative Republicans have
held and just conservative and just
Republican have been appointed for jobs.
If the Herald editor was Democrat he would
get up hind legs and howl over this treat
ment of the worthy and the hungry for political
The Herald editor cannot bring himself to be-
lieve that President Roosevelt Jim Farley and the
lesser lights who control the patronage cannot find
deserving Democrats with ability and training to
fill these positions
1t has been intimated that "big business" has had
the final say to who the appontees would be. It
has always been claimed that "big business" is Re
publican.
Much said during the campaign of 1882
about the forgotten man." The appointments to

grossly unfair.

GOOD ROADS PAY

It has been frequently asserted that good roads
really cost nothing in the long rum but yield pro-
fit on the investment necessary to provide them.
According to Thomas p. Henry, of the American
Automobile Association good roads have reduced
cost of automobile operation from an average of 10
cents mile to 643 cents mile in the last few years.
This means that for trip of 100 miles the ez-
pense is BITS less than it would have been I'M
der average conditions 1926 taking into account the
cost of gasoline, the less and tires and
some allowance for time saved.
If these savings only sufficient to offset the
additional gasoline and other taxes necessary to
build the highways the motorist is still ahead of the
game, because of the greater satisfaction and COM
fort enjoyed while the road.

SELLING TO FARMERS

Business men of the country spend $50 million
dollars year for advertising to reach city dwellers
but only 30 million in reaching the farmers accord
ing to Samuel r. McKelve. formerly of the Federal
Farm Board.
He added that this dsproportion in advertising
efforts was all the more striking when it is consider
ed that the farmers Of the country have normal
purchasing power Of ten billion dollars annually.
He might have gone further by stating that
class of prospective customers responsive
to honest advertising than farmers and farmers
wives. Gradually they take fewer newspapers and
other periodicals that city jewellers and consequently
read those they do take more thoroughly.
Merchants would do well to give more consider
alton to newspapers which reach the rural popula-
ton
