for the children's buresu, for there are many
more children in the country than there are
farms, and the disproportion would show up
much bigger. Mr. Rryan knows, however, ss does
every one else who doe any thinking at all,
that the amount spent on preparedness in spent
as much for the benefit of agriculture and to
protect the children from the ravages of war as
Is the money appropriated for the Department
of Agriculture or for the children's bureau.

The South Learning1 a Lesson.
The November summary of crop yields shows
that the production of cotton in the south has
decressed, both through a lessened yield per acre
nnd through a decreased acreage, as compared
with last year, and that corn production has cor
respondingly Increased until now the south pro
duces 27 per cent of the total corn yield. If the
distress of last year, which had a reflex Influence
upon the entire country, has really taught the
south the lesson of diversified agriculture it will
have been well worth the price. Long ago the
agricultural north learned this lesson and In
consequence hss been the most consistently pros
perous section of the United States, but in the
meantime the south has clung to tradition and
king cotton, with the result of alternate fat and
lean years, some of the latter bordering on actual
distress, as was the case last year. The north
need have no fear that the corn production of the
south will lessen the prosperity of the great corn
belt, for there Is market enough in sight for all
the corn and Incidental products of the grain that
both can produce, and the north, as well as the
south, will profit by the steadying influence
which diversified agriculture will have upon the
latter section. Cotton will doubtless always be
the staple of the south, just as corn is of this
section, but putting all the eggs In one basket
generally proves poor policy.
Resting; on the Seventh Day.
Our'dispatches tell of Rev. "Billy" Sunday's
expedition from Syracuse to Toronto and his
enthusiastic reception there on Monday, which
recalls the fact that when he was engaged in his
.Omaha campaign he put In his Mondays in a
similar fashion, making runs to Lincoln, St.
Joseph and Counoll Bluffs. When he contracts
for a revival "Billy" stipulates particularly that
he shall work only six days a week, leaving him
the seventh day for rest, although he is to take
his rest day on Monday Instead of Sunday. Yet,
the only difference between the rest day and the
other days is that he devotes the time to some
neighboring town as a side line. If the seventh
day for rest is the right rule, why doesn't "Billy"
observe it himself?
Juggled Treasury Statement
As truth of the charge that democratic fiscal
policies have placed the United States Treasury
in an embarrassing position the fact Is adduced
that it has been found necessary to juggle the
figures to conceal the real condition of affairs.
The October treasury statement shows a balance
in the treasury and In banks of $117,635,947,
while the statement of August 4, 1913, showed
a balance of $105,793,571, which would indi
cate that the available funds of the government
for meeting its obligations had increased in a
little more than two years of democratic control
to the extent of $11,841,376, whereas, accord
ing to an analysis made by former Senator
Bourne, the available cash has, In fact, decreased
during that period, $102,276,444.
This difference la a big one, even for financ
ing on the scale of the federal government The
figures in both instances check perfectly, but
comparison of the items, which compose the two
statements disclose the discrepancy.
In the first place, following a custom in
vogue for years, the statement of two years
sr.o did not include as available funds $30,000,
000 of subsidiary silver, silver bullion, minor
Olns and similar items. Again the democrats
lave added to available funds $80,000,000 na
tional bank redemption funds which before had
been Included in the liabilities. The first Item
might be legitimate as the money in question
li the property of the government, but for all
that Its inclusion makes the comparison between
the two statements unfair. Just what warrant,
however, there is for adding to "Available sur
plus" a trust fund such as the back note re
demption fund, is difficult to discern, and it Is
suggested that should any national bank juggle
its bookkeeping in that manner the bank of
ficals would find themselves in serious trouble.
The unescspable deduction from the actual facts
is that democratic management of the nation's
finances has been a failure.

Thanksgiving's Changes
rhll.ideinhle Worth American.
IF YOf look at Thsnksalvlng day fairly. It furnlshei
Its own best reKin for existence In the way
observe It nowadays, for there was a time when
Thanksgivtngs were young and In their vacillating
Infancy, so to Sck when ou couldn't have told
whether you'd have turkey, with lashings of stuffing,
or would have to go liunry and pray most of th'j
twenty-four hours Iwsldca.
Back In l'Ol, when Thsnksglvlng was starting on
Its ultimately triumphant march across a country
many times broader than the colonlsta held then. It
was Just aa likely to be a day of fasting and prayf
as of feasting and decorous rejoicing. It depended on
which way th cat of colonial fortune happened to
Jump, and there wasn't any particular day for It,
either. The good almost too good people of Maeea
ohueetta hadn't quite got their grip as yet on the new
soil, and they still depended largely on food supplies
that came from Kurope. That year they were on th
verge of starvation, and so a day of fasting Febru
ary 22 was appropriately set apart.
Perhaps fate considered that faatlng proposal as
an evidence of sporting blood too genuine to be fur
ther afflicted: anyway, It sent favoring winds to a
ship from Ireland that waa laden with provisions, and
It arrived before February 22 could give those lean
bodies their foretaste of full starvation Instead of
mere liunKcr. With their eensc of the appropriate ?.
active aa ever, and with Infinitely more good will, he
colonists promptly switched off the connection with
their fust-day plana and converted them Into a pious
thsnksglvlng.
Benjamin Franklin's sense of humor sometimes
let him flip history rather Irreverently, but he has left
this account of the way the colonlsta finally came to
be sure of enjoying a S'i'iare meal Instead of going
hungry:
"At length, when It waa propoaed In ttie assembly
to proclaim another fast, a farmer of plain sense
rose and remarked that the Inconvenlencea they Buf
fered, and concerning which they had so ofien wearied
heaven with their (omplalnts, were not bo great ns
they might have expected, and were diminishing every
day aa the colony strengthened; that the earth began
to reward their labor and to furnish liberally for their
substance; that the aeaa and rivers were found full
of fish, the alr aweet, the climate healthy and, above
all, they were In the full enjoyment of liberty,
rlvll and religious; ha therefore thought that reflect
ing and conversing on these subjects would be more
comfortable as tending to make them contented with
their situation, and that It would be more becoming
the gratitude they owed the Divine Being If, Instead
of a fast, they should proclaim a thanksgiving.
"Ms advice was taken, and from that day to thla
they have. In every year, observed circumstances of
felicity sufficient to furnish employment for a Thanks
giving day, which Is, therefore, constantly ordered and
religiously observed."
The truth was even If Franklin's farmer wit
nothing mote than an Invention to emphasize the
sound philosophy of optimism versus pessimism that
the Pilgrim Fathers had become hungrily human
when left to themselves In the presence of an appar
ently limitless game supply and with no oppresses
to make them feel life wasn't worth Itving. In eplte
of their dour faces and sour looks, they felt swelling
within their narrowed souls the eminently human
Instinct for having a good time some t;me or other.
In the ordinary course of the year's events that
would have been Chilntmns, the cheery old English
Yuletlde. But they had rejected all Yule festivities
aa savoring of the "mummery" against which they
w-ere ao many living protests, and many a time their
divine souls forced them to forego the beef and goose
and big plum puddlnga of the mother country, whoso
dust they had washed off with .0O0 miles of salt
water. A Thanksgiving day, with plenty to eat aa the
oblation, hit those hearty old settlers Just where they
lived. Once started, they went to It with the appe
tltes cf wolves. Bo Thanksgiving, honestly Inter
preted In the light of Us history, la really a sort of
substitute Christmas.
i
Between thirty and forty yeara ago, and probabU
for a sfood many years further back, New York moat,
conspicuously, and other communities tn less pro
nounced fashion, held Thanksgiving pbservanees which
were remarkably close to the Yuletlde pressures of
Kngland In the days when the Pilgrim Father quit
that land for a better one. The "fantastlcals," com
posed of men who arrayed themselves In motley ImlU
tatlon of kings and nobles and famous personages cf
history, roamed the streets as the wassallers did In
old England. But the fantaatlcala of those Thanks
giving days were far from being the simple, humble
glee singers and modest maskers of the Rngllah
Christmas. It was notorious that they used their dla
guise to practice the modern art of the hold-up. where
the Christmas wassallers merely accepted glfta that
wers willingly offered. It waa conceded that the
Amorloan methoda. If not so orthodox, were Immensely
mors enterprising and vastly more profitable for tho
fantaaticala. Writers or the period traced their origin
as mummers directly to ths Christmas waits of
England.
Meanwhile, the old Puritan Thanksgiving had suf
fered so many other Jolta In Its extension throughout
the country that for the moss of the people. If not for
the direct descendants of the pilgrims of New England,
there remained only the Thanksgiving dinner to rep
resent the original observance of the day. However,
readily the straltlaced old colonlsta fell In with the
plan to rejoice Instead of grouching. It had been
Impossible for people of their Immediate history and
strict temperament to make anything but a aedats
and pious observance of the day.
It waa In 111. when the Thanksgiving congregs
tlons had dwindled near to nothingness and the thea
ters were beginning to reap the holiday harveai. which
soon ranked aa the blggeat ot the year, that foot ball
collided with Thanksgiving. That was about the last
of the old-fashioned, grave, full-fed and more or less
comfortably pious Thanksgiving. Everybody went to
the game who could afford to; the rest thronged the
streets to share ths ensuing riot of excitement.
H has been that way ever since, but with some
marked modlflcatlona In popular amusement, none of
them more edifying than foot ball, although all of
them carry greater dignity than the forsaken mum
mery of the fantastlcals. Thers are many golf matches
where weathor permits; much promenading, penfing
the final score on the most important gridiron; a
good deal of matinee, a number of trips "back home
In the country"-nythlng and everything except ti e
aolemn and formal Thanksgiving that endured until
the civil war aa an Institution nearlv r.inl.
, was popular.
Aa It stands now, the only feature of the oil
Thanksgiving that remains to us Is the turkey, and
there are neither too many of them nor too many
observers of the turkey tradition to dine on them.

Tho drummer sst In the hotel chair and
fell In a musing strain,
And. aa far as I mud get It, this waa the
gist of his refrain:
"I have one great consolation a I travel

That keeps me still a-plugglng. and why
1 can't resign.
For, wherever I drop my travrlln? grips,
where'er I sign tu stop
I'm sure to meet my old standby the pie
with the vain lulled top.
It doesn't make much difference, a I
travel fnitn coast to coast,
Whether they have pigs' feet and onions,
or a blooming hard boiled roast;
Whether they hwve cold stortige chicken,
or eggs that Noah did store.
For my heart Just fills with gladness, as
I walk past the dining dour.
To hear the waiter whisper softly In a
voice quite low and shy.
'We have something special for you today
a beautiful hand-rubbed pie.'
A I fly across the country, and etretch
out my frame once more,
A aenso of peace steals o'er me, and I
calmly sleep and snore.
For I know that Just behind me, in the
Pullman dining car.
That the dough is up and doing,' In a
great, big stoneware Jar,
And I know that what'er may happen.
whether we go right throuKh or elop
There is one who will never forsake me
the pie with the hand-rubbed top.
As sure a the world a-turnlng, I cannot
escape my fate.
For It a all the same on the express train,
or the heavy local freight.
For there are no eating houses, and no
restaurants complete.

some three feet deep.
So why sh mid 1 fret ami worry, if we're
In for a long-time slop.
For 1 know Just close, within a block at

And you may well believe me, that the
hardest thing to beat.
Is the friend 1 have just mentioned, when
you want something to eat;
When you ve Junt got fifteen minutes,
and the con. yells 'All aboard!'
To know that somewhere In you, a piece
of Die is stored.
You may talk of all yojr banquets, and
tho extract from the hop.
But the big thing In rvation Is the pie

And when th's traveling life is don with,

Working singing, soft and low,
While sn s sitting there to sew.
Mother knows,
As she sews,
Jackets, trousers, a peons, too,
Johnnie's hat and babv'a shoo,
Patchlmr old. or making new,
Iove runs ai the stitches through.
This she knows.
So he sews.
Sew! Sew! Sew!
I can neither sow nor aew.
When I'm big, Ml learn then, though,
But while little as 1 grow.
Little bits of love I'll ehow.
For I know,
s I go
Tending baby, calling Nan.
Running errands like a man.
Helping mother ail I can, ,
Love will grov; wX re It began,
Ah, I know,
See, 'tis so.
Little bits of love count up,
Like drops of water in a cup.
Fill it so!
Twill overflow!
So! So! So!
