■ You can begin checking off the X shopping days till Christmas. \ It takes more dollars to fill the -■ 'Thanksgiving basket, but it also X takes larger baskets for all the food. :- - I Most of us hope that the weatherman will not try to make last year’s after-Thanksgiving ‘ weather a tradition. - o 6 The shopping district is being 2 decorated for th* Christmas holt, days. Attractive lights are being ~ fastened to light posts and will . glow with holiday warmness during the season when good will is supposed to prevail'in every community. - ‘--...— Q .. . Gov. Sehricker can have the . Democrat nomination lor U.S. Senator next year by the' mere nod of bis head. Democratic leaders have asked him to become tlie party's candidate. No man is _jnore popular in the state than the twice-elected governor and regardless of who his opponent might be iu November, odds will favor his election. Henry Schricker would give Indiana honorable - rtpresentation in Washington. , ’ o o Donald Gage, councilman-elect, will be the third member of the city board of public works and . safety, serving with Mayor John M. Doan and Robertas. Anderson, city attorney, who will round-out the Iboard by virtue of their offices. Mr. Gage is a capable and experienced mechanic and has frequently demonstrated his interest in municipal plant management.. Under Indiana law, the responsibility for operating electtic, water and' other municipal plants, lies with' the board of works, with the approval of the council. These men wiR direct Decatur’s three' utilities and will assume their official duties the first of the year. We wish, them a successful administration of theservery important public utilities.

that the army’s blood plasma pro*, gram for Korean soldiers might s faogg down because of a threatened strike in a large blood process--fng plant in' Pennsylvania. For- 1 - - • ■ ~r' i (unately, the strike didn’t materialise and the much needed life-fluid j tor the battle wounded 1 Will continue to be processed here and shipped to Korea. The Red Cross gathers blood both for hospital •- ajiid Korean use. That shipped to j - Korea is mostly in the form of plasma and it is understandable that It must be processed under f I \ the t highest standards known to — medical science. No home front problem should have precedence over the obligation which the country owes the armed forces in Korea. o o Thanksgiving:— V With ST little imagination it Would not be hard to believe that there will be unseen visitors \ around the tables of America this year as families gather for Thanksgiving dinner. Perhaps one might almost see the shadowy figures of the Pilgrims looking on as heads are bowed in thanks for übr blessings. _ If these visitors were to speak they might voice a message which would give the dajra deeper meaning tot all of us. They might tell us that they, too, were a little frightened of the future as they gathered for that first Thanks- ;' giving. Sorrow and disappointment bad not been strangers to their company in the previous year, but they were grateful for the strength and courage to bear their troubles. ' ,It cbtild be that the voices would chide us for our occasional lack of faith. But they might also praise us because despite our mis- \, tqkes we still preserve the freedom that brought thenr to this country., and still pause to give thanks for it. Thanksgiving Is a link between the Americans of today and all the men in the past who have celebrated the harvest in this land, It! is significant that this holiday vi should be dedicated to gratitude to God. May it always Ije so.
