I ! SOCIAL NEWS By AUDRED BUNCH", Phone 106 Thanksgiving Festivities Open With Country Club Dance ! The spacious club house of the lllihee Country club -was trans formed into a palace of light and color last night for the Thanks Riving ball which proved to be one of the most brilliant society events of the season.

Of course, there are a number who not only attended the dance at the club house last night but who will also assist with the attractive events of today. The decorations at the club house proved one of the delights df the whole evening, many elab orate electrical effects being pro vided. The outside ot the club house was illuminated by electric lights in clear bulbs, while colored effects were featured in the in terior. A novel effect was obtained by inserting' each alternate bulb in the hollow of a Jack o'lantern and by floating many balloons under electric reflectors, the com bination of incandescence and floating balfs every color of the rainbow, resulted. In a Xestive background for the dancers. Gus Hixson,, as chairman, assisted by William Paulus and Russell Bone steele. are responsible' for the suc cessful decorative achievement of the evening.

O tyanksgivirtg jjJ reclamation, The custom in America of annually setting aside one day in xvhieh to render thanks to God for his manifold blessings was begun by (mr Pilgrim Forefathers over three hundred years ago. The custom teas soon adapted by other Colonies and since the foun dation of the United States of America the day has been regularly observed by nearly every state in the Union. It is well for us as a belf '-governing people to be reminded that our Nation was founded by XJod-f earing men and women who believed the Holy Bible to be the inestim able gift 6f God to man, and who wrought its precepts into the very foundation of our Government. If Thanksgiving Day has grown to be a day of homecomings and family reunions when the children again gather around the hearthstone and renew the bonds of love and affection Ifor the old home. Upon the continued purity and sanctity of the American home depends the future of our Nation It is from these homes that the citizens of to morrow must come.. Let us, therefore keep up the otd custom of rendering thanks to Almighty God for His many blessings bestowed during the past year and fervently pray that He may keep America true to the ideals of its foimders. As' our children gather around the festal board let us again impress upon them the lesson? of simple faith in God as ices taught by our good Forefathers so many years ago. May this day be for tis all as a people a homecoming back to the old ideals of American life. v H Now, therefore, I, WALTER M. PIERCE, Governor of the State of Oregon, do hereby designate Ot)urs6a?. tovembar 26. 1925. as otyatxkssiving TDa? i and earnestly enjoin upon our citizens that on this day they lay aside their ordinary activ ities and,axsembltng themselves m their usual places of worship,' render thanks to Al mighty God for the bounties he has bestowed on our favorediand and to us as a people. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the Seal of the State of Oregon. Done at Salem, Oregon, , this seventeenth day of Nov., A. D. 1925. WALTER M.

He declared that "even a Los Angeles man or a Florida boomer couldn't sell that place." He. stated it is hot there, and sometimes very humid. The Malaysian, he said, Is now believed to have been .that part of the German tribe- who wandered, into Asia "instead of over to Eu rope. He believes that the Malay man will be known 'from Bow oa. as Indo-Germans. Tlie Malayman, he said, will be a friend to a ma unless the man plays him false.
