Thanksgiving or Democrat 2

President Roosevelt has proclaimed the 23rd day
OF November as the Thanksgiving Day of the Ma
tion and Governor Stassen has selected the 3Oth the
day which Thanksgiving usually would fall This
has created a muddled mess in every city, hamlet
and village in the state and many wonder whether
there will be two celebrations of the historic holiday
Sank Centre has its problem in this affair and it
may be up to the Mayor the President of the
Community Club to select a day for this city, or
two as the case may be. Two would be fine for
turkey raisers, and it may be way of settling
the argument for the profit of someone at least.
OF course, change in date at the late hour has
caused havoc in some lines, yet cannot it
would make much difference if time had been
given to provide calendars and other events accord
lngiy. Outside of that it boils down to either
Democratic or Republican Thanksgiving DEM
ocrats to celebrate one date the Republicans the
other.
And now the Stearns County Publishers will cele-
brate third Thanksgiving when they will enjoy
Turkey as the guests of the Sank Centre Herald
on Saturday October 28th. Three Thanksgiving days
in a land Of freedom and plenty not too much
for the average man doesn't think of thankfulness
only on special occasions. So why worry about the
whole thing!

What About Our Rest Room

Recent discussion of the value of the City Rest
Room, which brought forth argument to it's nee
essity in this modern day, prompted visit to this
haven of rest by the Editor. Besides being peace
full and pleasant place, discovered something
which makes believe it is the most valuable of
purpose that no monetary value be placed
thereon.
This rest founded many years ago,
through the efforts of Mrs. E. J. Lewis (wfe the
late Dr. Lews) who then president of the Grada-
tim Club. The necessity of the rest room soon
realized by all women in the club and their untiring
efforts brought it into being. Later it turned
over to the CITY,
In our visit to the rest room found that in
1885, 1884 women had visited there and had reg
istered in the large book provided for that purpose
They were from all parts of the United States
from the Atlantic seaboard to the West Coast, the
Gulf of Mexico into Canada. We had eyes open
ed and wanted to dig little farther into the large
book Where did most of these ladies come from?
Well, many came from this community and it's i'm
mediate surroundings, Willard Westport, West I'm
ion, Grey Eagle Belgrade, Brooten and others.
From the larger cities to the smallest hamets
tourists made use of the rest rooms
To date in 1889, 6,120 women have registered in
new book and they keep coming. What's the answer?
Comfort place to go and wait while husband or
father goes about his business, place to wait for
the bus place to take baby when he she become
fretful and tired. Is it worthwhile? We believe so!
Here's what a lady from Rochester said 1T
would be shame to close it." Innumerable other
women have said the same thing we'll as when
through with our shopping we have place to rest.
There is other place like it in Sank Centre"
room in Sank Centre-we found it worthwhile. You
too can find out the thing by visit there.
Mrs. Irv Carpenter, the matron, has records to
prove it.

Conciliator Colvin met today with

settlement of this dispute hinged
upon developments in the gravel
