It la threo hundred years since Thnnksglvlng i1y wan llrst celebrated on the Amerlcun continent. The I'll, grim band, though they had lost halt their numbers during the first winter nt riymouth. und thuuith thoy weru beset by hardships aud by tha fear of their aavngo nolghbora, found In the survival of the little colony nnd lu tho hope of a gradually ameliorating lot Just cause for thanksgiving to Ood. Have we, who havo Inherited tho In. stltutlons und tho spiritual Ideals tlmt thoy labored to estubllsh, Icsa reason than thoy to he thankful? I.Ike the other nntlous of tho world the United Stales has reached n great soclnl and political crisis. We have passed through n reat war, and we begin to feet the burden of debt und dlsnster that the war laid upon mnn kind. Our trade Is disarranged; neither flnnnrlally nor economically are wo so prosperous as we are wont to bo. Wo nro a little afald of the fu ture, for wo hato been shaken out of the easy and comfortable confidence In our own elllclency In which we havo been used to live. Hut great materlul prosperity la not always n matter for thanksgiving. It sometimes softens aud dissipate tho strength end virtue of u nation, 1'rr hupo uatlous like iucu should- echo the pruyer of Agur: "Give me neither poverty uor riches," We huve tnough and, like the l'llgrlme, we cau reason ably hope for an Increasing at ore of comforts In the couilug years. Is (hero not ample cause for thnuksgl.lug ' the fact that, although tho atlou has bvvn tried by adversity and loss and assailed by doubt and misgivings. I. shows no sign of losing Its heart or Its hcudT The gospel of hard work und cheerful courage stilt counts tno.t Americans as its adherents. Wo are working our way out of the depression that the war caused. We do not thank Ood because our way It the way of fatness und of peace. out because, lu the time of testing and trlui, our people are able to quit them. selve like meu, Youth' Compaulou. k , Jp fim have m Nr fie SHOP AT $1.00 Special This Friday, Saturday and Monday Only 3 Pound Cotton Halts $1.00 7)4 Pound Cotton Batts.$1.00 Ladies' Outing Flannel Night Gowns $1.00 Buster Brown Pure Silk Hose for Ladies' $1.00 Girl's Heavy Cotton Rib bed Union Suits, Long Sleeves and Long Legs, 8 to 1G $1.00 Boy's Knee Pants, Cord uroys and Dress . . . .$1.00 Money Refunded.
