ff you will take the time to think the
matter over you will find that there are
many thing you have reason to be
especially thankful.
We have reeson to be thankful for the
fact that we have not, so far, frozen up
that we can still talk about the fuel famine.
While there is life there is hope, or at
least there should be.
Do not forget to be thankful for the
knowledge that your neighbor has wood
and coal even if your own supply has
reached that state where it is but a
rr.:sicry of belter clays.

ALASKA WANTS HOME RULE
The people of Alaska are about to take
steps to secure a territorial form of gov
ernment It is not intended to demand
local self government for all township and
country organizations, as is done in older
settled communities but simply to be em
power, as American citizens, to legis
late for themselves. In their efforts for
this local self government, the people of
Alaska are expecting the aid of the state
of Washington' particularly of Seattle,
the gateway ofAlaska, which the trade of
the north has done so much to build op.
Mr, Thoma$;Cale, of Fairbanks, Alaska,
mine owner, ehosen by the people of
Northern Alaska lo represent 'them in
Cottfcress 'r the ptirhe imover in the affair.
Mr. Gale points out that the mining laws
of Alaska are patterned lifter those of the
United States tut -at e a mere skeleton
riot fitted Tot local needs. On the skeleton
provided, the mining states have built up
a body of laws that suit the conditions of
the prospective 'states but this .has been
denied Alaska. The present lack of rail
way communication is very bad while the
provisions for schools away from incor-
porated towns is meagre and unsatisfac
tory as the people in many places have to
educate their own children after paying
their revenue to the government.
Dispite the fact that Baker has never
been known as a wicked city the evange
lists who are holding revivals here appear
to be able to find material to work on.

Forget that hard luck story for tomor
row at least, and think of something for
which you have reason to be thankful.
Unless you are soured clear to the core
you have something which could be prop
erly be remembered on thanksgiving.

Here is a tangle: An old man of 50 and
a young ma-, of 2d, both widowers. The
young man has a step-daughter 38 years
old, that he marries to the older gentle
men, and in return took the old man's
daughter for a wife. Now what relation
are those four people to each other? Ex.

SHADOWfD HOMES
Never dawns a bright anniversary that
has not its shadowed side. Never is
there a home to which sooner or later
grief does not come. At the Thanksgiving
board this year, as in other years, there
will be vacant chairs, and the household
of the sorrowing continually is recruited
by those to whom has come the pang of
loss. It is not easy to understand why
trials so often come to those who need
no harsh discipline, and from our limited
experience we cannot tell why it is that
one is Uken and another left. One thing
we may do, and that is trust. We may
safely trust a love that is greater than
ours, and may safely leave our vanished
dear ones in the care of Him who gave
them to us.
