Thanksgiving Thoughts

IFHE harvest was plentiful, the colony
secure and the Lord be praised!
Such was the spirit of the first Thanks
giving. A great day of thanks to an all
wise and benevolent Lord - to Him we
will sing praise and celebrate His good
ness and protection. 1t was good to be
alive, to have a bounteous harvest for
the winter ahead to have the opportuni-
ty to express appreciation in prayer and
song. Those who had fled the tyranny Of
ages, sought to be free from mans
tyrannical rule, but they were entirely
subservient to Gods will and to Him
they looked for strength, help and guild
ance. Thus, Thanksgiving became re-
ligious holiday A day for giving thanks.
AS the years past and the founding
nation became abundant in material
strength, Thanksgiving Day has be-
come more of a Roman holiday - a
festive day of worldly pleasures. The
ever present dangers of savage intrus-
ions have gone, the failure of crops and
lean winter no longer hold fears.
Bounties and abundances are taken as
matter of fact Politically We have

Eat More Eggs

If you don't eat breakfast, chances are
eggs to satisfy the nutritional needs of
your body 49, egg-wise. That's the con-
sensus of a couple of thousands of home
makers who we're contacted concerning
their uses and opinions about eggs. This
survey was conducted as result of the
decline in egg consumption by persons
in recent years
The results of this study showed that
over half the eggs used in the home are
served at breakfast, and most home
makers consider them breakfast food.
Yet, two out Of every five persons in
the United States do not eat eggs re-
gularly for breakfast.
TO nearly all homemakers interview
ed, the key difference between large and
small breakfasts was whether eggs were
included and how many. In their opin-
ions Large or substantial" breakfast
usually includes two eggs. Not quite half
Of the homemakers said they Isome-
times have eggs as main dish at noon
meals and half said they served them
sometimes" at evening meals. The rea-
son they gave for serving eggs at these
meals seemed to be that eggs are quick
and easy to prepare
Eggs are generally considered to be
the most healthful of solid foods COM
monty served for breakfast Check YOUR
eating habits and if you're by-passing
eggs you better let the title woman
talk you into eating at least five eggs a
week. 1t really doesn't matter whether
you eat them for breakfast or put them
in lunch pail. Just be sure to eat eggs.

Good Old Days
Lebanon (Ore. Express

had set him to thinking.
81 mind,' he said, when was boy
on the farm west of here, chilly morn
ing was warning signal that made us
get busy.
There were potatoes to be dug and
carried down to the cellar And wood
to be split and stacked just so in round
piles-extra neat on the side the neigh
bors would see as they drove by in their
buggies.
"And there would be corn to cut and
tie securely in teepee-shaped-shocks ~
set 'em up stiff and strong, lad, so
they'll stand up in the wind and we
won't have to dig them out of the snow.
And bales Of straw to put in place
around the foundations of the house
to keep the bitter wind from whipping
through the cracks in the floor.
There were dozen things that
clamored for doing all at once on that
first shivery day Of fall.
Nowadays, a great many farmers
hear the furnace burning when they
climb out of bed. They take lok at the
thermostat, and remark that it must
have gotten mighty chilly during the
night"
Il suppose" the managing editor
ventured, you are mighty sorry the

pulling up his coat collar and heading
for the door, 'the answer is NO."

Health insurance protection
against the cost of doctor calls
and other nonsurgical care by
doctors, a type of coverage held
by relatively few people a dec
ade ago. is rapidly growing in
popularity, the Health Insurance
Institute reported today.
AT the end Of 1919. regular
medical expense insurance COW
cred about II million persons, or
one out of every four persons
among the Sc million who had
hospital expense insurance at
that time, said the Institute.
However. by the end Of 1859.

ance. or two out Of three persons

Institute. And. of those persons

Coverage under regular medi-
cal expense insurance can be ex-
pected to continue to have rapid
growth. the Institute said. it es-
tlmated that as of the end Of
June some "a million Americans
had this type of protection
against doctor bills.
Benefits paid by insurance
companies to persons covered by
regular medical insurance have
beer increasing about three times
as fast as the climb in the num-
Der of persons protected, the In
stitute said.
From the end of 1856 to the
end of 1859, the net insurance
company coverage of persons
with regular medical expense in
| surance climbed from 1913 mil
lion to 382 million, a 285 per
cent increase which was slightly
ahead of the rate Of growth in

Warning In U. N.

A disappointing vote was recorded in
the United Nations the other day.
The vote was taken on charge by the
Cuban government coupled with a de-
mand for a L. n. debate, that the United
States was planning aggression against
Cuba.
The demand for a debate, backed by
Russia and the communist countries,
was As to 20. That is, by only sixteen
vote margin, the United States escaped
the obvious propaganda play Of the COM
munist tainted Castro regime.
The disturbing thing about the vote
was that such nations as India, the u.
A. R., YugosTavia and many of the new
Asian and African countries voted with
the communist countries - in favor of
opening debate on this fabricated
charge.
What will happen after we have adj
mitted another dozen or so new men,
Der nations in the United Nations?
Already we have the sordid spectacle
of the Congo to cope with. This is cost
ing the United States alone some humid
red million dollars and it is doubtful
if we are getting anywhere.

The three top leaders in the Congo
have been described as men with the

Another concentrates largely on fine
food and spirits. The third is reported

have to deal with in spending all this
money and in freeing the people of the
Congo for their rule.
Such nations, and their leaders, will
soon be in the majority in the Y. N.
What shall we do if the votes 60 against

TRADE
WINDS
BY LOU SCHNEIDER

Despite the substantial de-
cline in securities values since
the first week in January. Wall
Streets speculative element is
still optimistic.
AS one bullish analyst says:
There's more bearish talk than
bearish action. Said another:
We are experiencing a healthy
readjustment along an ordinary
road Of an uptrend market and
the prospects for the latter half
of 1860 seem bright.
Says a typical pay-for mar
ket-letter service: The impend-
ing minor dip in general busi-
ness activity will be because of
beat-the-gun inventory build
ing to take advantage Of price
increase, but it means heal
thier business activity late in
1860 and into 1861.
And all bulls point to the
January issue of the Morgan
Guaranty Trust monthly letter
saying the reduced volume of
trading in the securities price
decline reveals buyer hesitancy
rather than suggesting a crum-
bling confidence on the part of
investors with respect to the
business outlook"
But, answers the cautious
element in securities circles,
the Morgan-Guaranty Trust
letter also said: There is in
creased investor attentiveneSs
to the attractions of high
yields on fixed-income obliga-
tions." That means big money
is going into bonds, not stocks.
1t spells out reduced support
for the stock market.
