obset vintf one of the. nations oldest
holidays Thanksgiving a day observ.
ed cioh year, since the time of our pil
grim fathers This should indeed be
a day of thanksgiving, the great strife
being over and the majority of those
who deserted the ranks of civil llfo In
order to defend the nation's honor are
with us agalu. There Is not one of us
bo has not something to be thankful
for. While dauie fortune may not
have smiled upon all of us, still, we
should be thankful for what favors we
have received.
Various ways and means of spending
the day are at our disposal The
churches will hold united services in
the evening; many will have their ab
sent relatives and friends around the
fireside once more; the citfes and hotel
ara catering to their patrons with a
special menu; a big 'foot ball game
will be played at 2:30 p. in., which
will be followed by a. big featuro show
at the Orphcum theater at 4 o'clock,
the same performance being repeated
In the evening. All business is sus
pended for the day.
In order to give the "force" an op
poitunity to whet up their appetite, in
the morning, for a big dinner, mj in
dent leligeous meditation, a tiip out
to the ball grounds or a peep at the
movies we are piloting the Chief one
day early this week. To do this wo
have found it necessary to fpeed up
woik and piss up news-hence n no
ticlble lack ot news matter In tho col
