Answers to: Ques. 1 Abraham;

altar and worship God; 3 When he
moved from Shechem to Bethel, he
again set up an altar and worshiped
God.
Strange com-'
When we move into a
munity. it is a good thing to follow;
Abraham's example and go to church
and Sunday school regularly, even
though we may not know anyone we
meet there the first Sunday. In this
day of frequent moving, people too
often drop the habit of going to J
church because they find themselves
in a strange community. But this is j
not right and tne result is a loss to
the church and to the person who
stays away. No one gains anything
except Satan, and who wants to con
tribute anything to his success. He
doesn't need you anyway; the church
does.
Even though the denomination of
your choice isn't represented where
you live, attend the services of some
church and help them in their efforts
o teach God's word in your commun
ity.

Abraham to offer as a burnt offering?

THANKSGIVING DAY
and How!
Now there walked in the land of
the righteous, which was called En g-
land, in those days, a people known
as Puritans.
And they were pure.
And thev went out of one place
even into another, until they were
called Pilgrims. And the progress of
i the Pilerims nroeressed. until their
grim's progress with Bunion.
And it came to pass they became
as popular with the High Mogul of
that State, whose name was called
Jonathan Bull, as a Klansman at a
Democratic convention. And Mr. Bull
sateth himself down upon the Pil-
grims and layed a few yards of law
down upon them in chunks and
smote them with sharp words.
Then when they saw how it was,
they cat themselves one large ark,
new sails, much rope for the sails
and decks, and also plenty of decks;
for the sailors And the ark they
called "Mayflower," because it blos
somed forth early with many bloom
ing leaks. '
And John Alden didst come aboard
and he was fair to look upon, and
he had one steamer trunk of foot
wear of finest wool, his Sunday shirt
and dinner coat. Upon his right arm,
he had bare a' club bag, filled with
precious tools,- 'which art used in
games called golf. And on his left.
: the voyages beheld his sweet mama.
i whose name was called Priscilla, Dyjart with him, he fixeth up his dis-
all of them who knew her.
And it came to pass when the
Captain heaved up the anchor, they;
received many "Hum Voyages ' ana
didst make sail.: And the sails took
the wind as the sea bosoms a flock
of mallards.
And they sailed West to grow up
with one country,
And It was cold, and there was
suffering. ,
In time, one byzo, who didst sleep
in a crow's nest, called Look Out,
didst emit one loud' yell, "Land.

And the Red Skins wotted not why

And things were exceedinelv toueh.!
But when SDrine came. croDs were ;

And he asked all to gather together
on this day to break bread and talk

And there was one Pilgrim amongst
them who didst operate one chain
store for men, and his name was
callcd J. C. Copper, by all who knew
him. And he did'st capitalize on the
idea, and caused to be run, big ads
in the paper. Likewise did he send
out many pieces of printed matter
direct to males. Also many post cards.
and letters and messages did he send
unto those people. He spake unto
them about his shop, his service and
the quality of the apparel he had.

And they ate and gave thanks,

Williams, formerly of Omaha, The

In May 1925, Williams was ar

murdering a woman in Hous

L. T. Sidwell, then superintend

went to Houston and aided in
his acquittal, testifying that
Williams was in the institution
for feeble-minded at the time
he claimed to have committed
the Houston murder.
The district attorney at Hous
ton told The World-Herald last
night that Williams "would con
