WOW TO OBSBRVM THAKKSOIV, ^ ?*eWhan the wqrld waa .yowager and times wets harder, people had Tetter appreciation of the good thin^a that came to .them. Progress, modern invention, and better en llghtenment along certain Unea hare { increased the number of bright days and shortened those of suffering, but good times in the old days were not taken so muoh. as a matter of fact, and people at certain titnee made it a practice to render thanks for the good things that came their way. Then ft was no mere perfunctory observance. Thanksgiving was a term that had real significance. The day la almost here which fh'e almanac tells us la the time for observance of the annual proclamation calling for a day of thanksgiving. Ae Is usual, certain games, certain other plans for pleasure, not to "** omit the hapless turkey have been long looked forward *fo in keen anticipation by tens of thocsands of us in connection with that date, but how many will remember the real Significance of the Institution of thanksgiving?- How many of us have preserved the original spirit that prompts the observance and how many of us are preparing to make real expression of thanks on Thanksgiving day? * jW, The usual pleasures are natural ! that is not all. Every man who~has prospered and Is conscientious In his Intentions to properly observe the r occasion can't well do so without expression of sympathy for the unfortunate and the numberless needy. These classes are found under many circumstances and, this year of all years, when prosperity has beeu almost rampant, they ought to receive a much increased material support, institutions that exist for the soul ^ The orphanages of the state, these fJect to fathering the homeless chll i'<? dren, that fit them for the higher duties of life, ought to And as tender spots In* the hearts of the prosperous pcblic as any cacse. tt Is good to" contemplate-how many children are sent out in life from them well equipped to meet tne exigencies, out It is sad to contemplate how many had not been well cared- for and sheltered In their more tender years. No cause is more appealing and It Is to be hoped that more .people will mingle a little of the ap^t of giving wlah the spirit of thanksgiving and make Thanksgiving worthy 1. * of its name. , ~ GRAND tECTIM BEREJIOYEWIBER11 ?Mr. 8amuel Carty.

Certainty the tie between the members is very strong and tender. Miss j Hoyt is now the beloved honorary vice president. The meeting was oalled to order by Mrs. B. G.

I One interesting item of business brought before the elb was the question whether they should join iir the movement for closing the stores earlier on Saturdays. The club voted unanimously and cnthusiastirally that they should do so. Our ! present habits are_ very .providential ;anl the club wishes us to grow both bgger and better. FOIIKST NOTES. There is a flourishing forest school in the Philippines, and 28 men were graduated with the class of 191S. The so-called Scotch pine Is tho 1 principal tree in the Prcxsian forests. Its wood is much like that of the western yellow pine of the UQlted Slates. In general it may be vt&ted that tho most dangerous forest fire periods in the west are in middle and late summer; in the eaet they are In the spring and fall. Because of the importance of forestry at the annual conservation congress in Washington, November 18 to 20, an extra day Is added to the sets Inns Monday, the 17th. It- has been suggested that Guayacan, a very hard wood of Central America, may furnish shuttle blocks to supplement- dog wood" and persimmon, now most used, and in danger of becoming exhausted. Under forest regulations in Colombia rubber gatherers are roqclred to give the trees a rest period In tapping them for gum. The size. nutnber, and location of the Incisions are regulated by law. In the United States similar regulations are In force In the tapping of pises for turpentine on the Florida nstlonal forest. , BROCG&T TO J All..

The opera chairs will ba ready for the opening of the motion picture show Monday night. , While the New Theater is large, modern and up-to-date, the matter of having adequate escapes from the building in caaa of fire is lacking and the owner! BhouM get busy at once and make more ample provision. Fire escapes should be pro-< vtded and a plenty of them and there should be more ex'ts from the building. With* wmwmt hundred people confined in the building as last n^ght | | and fire was discovered there is no 1 jdoubt but what many people would be either killed outright or seriously i hurt. nm mrnnnTinii Dlb AllKAbllUn HERE NOV. 21 ?A awtety Vaudeville-is billed fortho New Theater on the evening of Friday, Novembed 21, which Is to be presented under the auspices of the choir of St. Peter's Episcopal Church.
