MUSIC STUDENTS PLAN MINSTREL Thanksgiving Day is the one national festival which turns on home life. It is not a day of eccle siastical saints. It is not a national anniversary. It is a day of Nature. It is a day of Thanksgiving for the year’s history. And it must pivot on the house hold. A typical Thanksgiving dinner represents everything that has grown in all the summer, fit to make glad the heart of man. It is not a riotous feast. It is a table piled high, among the group of rollick ing young and sober joy of the old with the treasures of the growing year, accepted with rejoicing and in terchange of many festivities as a token of gratitude to Almighty God. Remember God’s bounty in the year. String the pearls of His favor. Hide the dark parts, except so far as they are breaking out in light! Give this one day of thanks, to joy, to gratitude.—Henry Ward Beacher. FARM BUREAU AUXILIARY COM- CARD OF THANKS.

VALUABLE TALKS ON VOCATIONS HEARD Bi OCCUPATIONS CLASS (From the "Bulldog") The occupations classes, during the past two weeks, have heard talks from three townspeople concerning particular vocations.

He tells us, in illustrating his point, about his pet rooster which, when Hoover was going strong, would lay only one egg a day;.now that Roosevelt is assured of office the egg laying rate has in creased to two eggs per day. We are earnestly assured that by the time March 4th gets here the added stimulis of the election will brin g his rooster's rate up to three. Nice story to tell, no doubt but we still think Hoover deserves some credit for getting that first egg from the rooster. A consultation was being held over Tom Jensen's whiskered Scotty (or plain dog) pup yesterday after a ar had hit the little fellow. At first it looked as though his injuries were atal but after a little he shook his head and walked away. He may have thought the Democratic landslide had hit him. If only we could get out of paying our debts as easily as do this coun try’s European debtors. Someone was telling me the other day that the depression brought the hard times. We only hope that the old “Demo- ’cratic Donkey” pulls the load of national problems as well as he ran.
