There Are a Great Many Things
That the People Generally Have
Cause to Be Thankful For.

From Saturday's Dally.
Only a few more days and the
eaders of the Journal, along with
the few people who do not read
it, will stop to consider that
Thanksgiving day has arrived,
and to give a thought, perhaps, to
what they have to be thankful for.
Perhaps some of them will
answer, very little, out we re
lieve almost everyone will agree
with us that a serious thought
will reveal a great many reasons
for giving thanks.
For one thing, the election is
over, hven the ueicatcu candid
ates are thankful of that, and the
innocent bystanders are one and
all throwing mental cartwheels
through sheer joy at the relief.
Perhaps we are not all thankful
it's over.
'I'll en agan, the hot weather is
gone, and with it the heavy sum
mer work. Of course we will all
keep busy in the winter, too, but
we will be thankful for a change.
Crops have been good as a rule
and the person who takes this as
too much a matter of course to be
thankful for that is a mighty un
gratelul citizen, most 01 us are
still alive, some more than others,
and a lot of us ought to be con
siderably thankful for that alone
(eiiing away irom me tilings
right around us. However, every
person who is living now ought to
be thankful for his opportunity.
The pessimist will tell you that
the world is getting worse and
will point to the dissenlion in
the churches, the revelations of
graft and crime and all the other
unsavory things that are coming
to light today to prove his argu
ment. We do not believe all this, and
we are thankful that we don't.
The world is getting better every
day, and we are thankful we are
here to see it and believe it and
help make it true. The United
States, and the whole world, is in
a period of transition and revolu
tion nnd change, but we firmly be
lieve that it is all a .change for
the better. When graft anil crime
is brought to light it means to us
that this graft, and crime is being
stamped out and will not lie al
lovrd o go on as it has been do
ing under cover. When we see
thinking people dissatisfied with
many things in the churches of
today, we believe that it does not
J mean a letting down in the moral
ami spiritual attitude and stand
ing of these people, but a desire
o correct manv things which
very one of us knows can be
omul in connection with almost
every church organization.
Maybe you have been up against
rouble this year and feel that the
world has given you little to he
thankful for individually. For
your individual troubles we are
sorry, but try to forget that in
taking a bigger, broader view of
the world today and we think you
will agree that it is a good old
world after all, and you are thank
ful you' have been permitted to
ive in it.
You'll see value, quality,
style, sticking out all over this store.
Every advantage which
specialization and expert knowledge
can bring forth are yours here, every
minute of every business day. Every
sale is meant to give 100 per cent of
satisfaction to you; and no sale is final

The comma is a very small
thing, yet it cuts an important
11 guru sometimes in the transac
tion of business. The St. Louis
Post-Dispatch reports the follow
ing incident, which shows the
power of the comma:
The absence of a comma in an
insurance contract cost a Kansas
City man $7,000. Had the comma
been placed after the word in the
contract, J. Sidney Smith would
have received the money. The
suit was to collect, payment for
the loss of grain destroyed on a
side track near an elevator. The
sentence in the contract which
was in issue in the suit read:
"drain in cars on sidetrack with
in one hundred feet, of the ele
vator." Smith contended the .sentence
should read:
"drain in cars on sidetrack,
within one hundred feet of eleva
tor."
The court, however, held that if
hould read:
"('rain in cars, on sidetrack
."ithin one hundred feet of eleva-

Prof. J. W. Gamble III.
From Saturday's Dally.
The many friends here of ex
Superintendent J. W. Gamble will
learn with regret of his illness in
Omaha and that his condition has
become such that it was found
necessary to remove him to the
Clnrkson hospital for treatment.
Tt is to Je hoped that it will not
be necessary to perform an opera
tion upon him and that he may
soon be able to resume his duties.

Rebekah Social.
From Saturday's Dally.
A large number of ladies as
sembled at the pleasant home of
Mrs. M. Hild yesterday afternoon,
at which time the Rebekah lodge
held a social meeting. The lime
was enjoyably whiled away in
games, interspersed with social
conversation and music, which
made the occasion a most de-
ighlful one. During the course
of the afternoon the hostess
served some excellent refresh
ments, which was likewise thor
oughly appreciated. At a late
hour the ladies dispersed, very
much indebted to Mrs. Hild for
ler kind hospitality and the splen
did entertainment afforded them
on this occasion.

We have somespecial priced Rugs for you this week.
From Friday's Dally.
A few days ago three young
men one from Lincoln and the
other two from Plattsmouth-
started from the mouth of the
Platte for a trip to the mouth of
the Mississippi. They construct
ed a line boat, fully equipped, and
expected to have easy sailing from
their starting to their point of
landing. They had not left
Plattsmoulh behind but a few
miles before they struck a sand
bar and remained there for a few
days. They were wet, cold am
hungry, but could not reach the
main land nor could they get help
They reached here a couple o
days ago and one of them is now
working in the Duff garage am
will remain until ho earns enough
to get provisions for the others
After they pass Kansas City they
expect to have easy sailing. -Ne

The interior of the new tele
phone building is receiving the
llnal touches of the painter and
presents a very handsome ap
pearance. The room to be use by
the electrician of the company
has been finished in olive green,
while fh(! new room for the switch
board has been painted a very soft
cream color, making it very light,
and at the same time a color that
will not strain the eyes of the
operators. The new rest room
I hat the company has prepared
for the employes of the company
is done in two shades of blue and
this room has been painted with
the dull finished paint and it will
make a splendid room where the
telephone girls can go for a few
minutes of nerve-relaxing rest.
When the building is entirely
completed it will be one of the
most convenient, as well as the
handsomest, buildings in the city,
and the painter, Mr. Frank Gobel
man, may well feel very proud of
his work, as it is certainly very
artistic.
