THE DAY OF THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving Day is tho one na
tional festival which turns on home
life. It is not a day of ecclesiastical
saints. It is not a ..ational anniver
sary. It is not a day celebrating a
religious event. It is a day of Na
ture. It is a day of thanksgiving for
the year's history. And it must pivot
on the household. A typical 'thanks
giving dinner represents everything
that has grown in all the summer,
fit to make glad the heart of man.
It is not a riotous feast. It is a
rollicking young and the sober joy
table piled high, among the group of
of the old, w;th the treasures of the
growing year, accepted wjth rejoicing
and interchange of many festivties as
a token of gratitude to Almighty (,od.
Remember Hod's bounty in the
year. String the pearls of his favor.
Hide the dark parts, except so far
as they are breaking out in light.
Give this one day to thanks, to joy,
,to grat,tuu'..—ll erry '<’> ard ■■cher.

Co-ops Distribute
Million and Half
A
Announcement of the distribution
of over a million and a half dollars
to members of the Tobacco Growers’
Co-operative Association in the old
bright belt of North Carolina and
Virginia, made from headquarters
Saturday, is followed by the state
ment that the association morale in
this territory is growing stronger all
the time.
Exactly $1,590,002.86 will be paid
out to the members of the old bright
belt. This sum represents th e asso
ciation’s filial payment on eighteen
grades of tobacco of the 1924 crop.
While it is just the second payment
to be distributed, it indicates highly
satisfactory sales for much of the
total poundage marketed in 1924 by
co-operativein western North Caro
lina and a large part of Virginia.
News from association headquart
ers, following the confirmation of the
report that the million and a half
dollars would be distributed on De
cember 15, that members of the asso
ciation are more and more taking
complete charge of the problem of
dealing with the contract breakers.
This appears, from reports, to be
particularly true in several local dis
tricts in western North Carolina.

ARGUE COOPER APPEAL
BEFORE CIRCUIT COURT
Richmond. Va., Nov. 9.—The appeal
of former Lieutenant Governor Wil
liam B. Cooper, of North Carolina,
from an eighteen months’ sentence
imposed for misappliance of funds of
the Commercial National Bank of
Wilmington, N. C., was argued be
fore the circuit court of appeals here
today. The plaintiff in error claimed
that he had no knowledge of any
wrong doing in connection with the
note es E. L. Sanderson, which result
ed in the crediting of $111,905 to
Thomas E. Cooper, a brother.
The United States, represented by
Irwin U. Tucker, attorney for the
Eastern district of North Carolina,
claimed William B. Cooper was aware
of the transaction in connection with
the Sanderson note for $12,500
through which his brother, Thomas E.
Cooper, received a credit of $12,905,
when the note was discounted. San
derson claimed that he received no
consideration for the note which he
had signed when Thomas E. Cooper
sent it to him and in sentencing the
brothers the court found that Cooper
had pretended to discount the note
crediting the funds to himeslf. Wil
liam B. Cooper, president and direct
or of the bank, was sentenced be
cause of his knowledge of the trans
action.
