HIS is the time of year when a person is supposed to be thankful. It mav be a little strange to some when they come to think things over and “count their many blessings.” that there are not more of them. But that js not supposed to be the reason for being thankful. The things that are, that have been realized, that have been productive of pleasure or comfort, or that have the making of these beneficences, unrealized though they may be, are all worthy reasons for an ex pression of gratitude. Probably one of the qualities least satisfac tory in social relationship, and to ourselves, is our inability, fre quently, to see the advantages we enjoy and feel a sense of gratitude for them. First let us feel grateful for national peace. Consider the distress that exists among the people of our neigh boring nation at the south, of the misery that has prevailed throughout the nations of South ern Europe, and the drouth and famine and pestilence, that has walked abroad in other lands. We may be thankful for nat ional healthfulness. No disease has threatened any unusually large proportion of our people within the twelvemonth. Even the death rate is lower than ever before. Practically all contag ious disease has less of virility than ever before. The years’ harvest has at least been up to the rformat There is an abundance of everything. The grain yield has been excel lent. Fruit is plentiful, yet not wastefully abundant. Beyond the occasional illness of individ* ual persons there has been little occasion for distress. That some have been in want cannot be de- the wishes of the automobile club, one of their most influen tial members voluntered to see that it was spent. His services have been accepted, and he is guppOSed tO Serve without pay. His credentials as a road builder are not mentioned, He prob ably knows a piece of asphalt from a mud hole. If the county court is to be dominated by every delegation of boosters it will have a busy time dodging from one purpose to another. It is hardly probable that a delegation of industrious fanners would have the same consideration that a delegation from the Auto Club would re- ceive. Suppose we try it. A good many of these farmers are putting up about all they can now unless they could get some local relief. The main idea of bhe boosters is to assure themselves of the Columbia river highway. There is no doubt about the man appointed being a good business man and he may be well qualified for the job. Have you noticed the street improvements that has been going on this week, cross walks and all. Did not the Herald say that some philanthropist would turn up to take up the street im provements in this burg. And they did. But it was necessary for the Herald to mention the need of it and how easy it would be to interest some one in get ting it done. When you want any good public enterprise to come through, just call around and get the Herald busy. Then they all begin to take notice. A?ain we call your attention to the excellent chicken show that was put c-n by the bovs and girls of the Lents Schools. There will be more chickens in town next year, and that means a reduction in the price of egps and smaller meat bills. This will education prove practical. Notice the street improve ments. Just what is needed and the best that could be done un der #thi^ circumstances. Thank the Herald and Mayor Coffman forthat. “We” did it. No we started it.
