Take a mind's eye view of those simple folk anil then take a look at your surroundings in Waynes, ville today. There isn't a man, woman or child in this whole land but that can be thankful for at least some one thing during the past twelve months. True, the past twelve months have been trying. There has been a period of depression with scar city of .money in circulation, slow ing up in the commercial world, Shutdowns in the manufacturing world, drought iu certain sections which have wrought havoc to ag riculture and caused heavy losses to farmers, a vast army of unem ployed men and women, and the attendant sulfering therefrom, and all that, and yet there is .-till much to be thankful for.
