| EDI-GRAMS | O o An after-thought: Just WHEN are you really going to observe Thanksgiving Day—the 23rd or the 30 th? And we wonder if the poor turkeys are hoping for a stay of execution, even tho short? We’ve heard lots of rumors about local nimrods bringing in rabbits and pheasants since the opening of the season, but we haven't seen any yet. LET US GIVE THANKS! Thanksgiving Day was originated as a day on which we should all offer thanks to God for our happiness, freedom and well-be-ing. You all know of the occasion that prompted the setting aside of this great day. You all know of the feasting and rejoicing that went on as both Pilgrims and Indians celebrated the famous date in its origin. But, Thanksgiving Day is not only a day for feasting and rejoicing, it was Intended for more than that. Feasting and rejoicing were merely material and outward ways of showing the true feeling of happiness, freedom ano joy, that those people felt as they reached the shores of the wide Atlantic. They were indeed happy to be alive and well and were truly glad that God had allowed them to stand the hardships of a long sea voyage in a comparatively makeshift craft. They had chanced to land upon a shore where food was plentiful, where they could build homes and towns, where they need not stiffer the terrors of a tyrannical government. Here they were upon,_their own, they could go as they pleased and they could do as they pleased; they could set up th ir own church and their own form of government. Are not these truly things to be thankful for ? Lot us, on ’ his anniversary of the landing-of those brave souls, give • thanks to God for the peace, the freedom, and the land that we enjoy.

OOLIJEGE FOOTBALL PLAY ENDS FOR JIM STUCKY Jim Stucky, Syracuse, Ind., will be wearing the cardinal and white football suit of North Central college, Naperville, 111., for the last time in his college football career next Saturday afternoon when he journeys to his home state of Indiana for the grid battle between North Central and Valparaiso university of Valparaiso, Ind. Stucky will be at his right tackle post for Saturday’s game, the first in history between the two schools. He has played in every North Central game this season, playing most of every game. O— — O | LIVESTOCK NEWS | O O (Reported by John Clay and Company.) With consumers all “talking turkey,” the dressed meat trade continues on a weak basis, while supplies of beef, pork and lamb yellding materials are of generous volume; in fact, receipts of hogs are largest of the year. The cattle run is made up largely of fed stock, rangers having dwindled to insignificant size, as has the run of fat range lambs. Demand continues active for stocker cattle and feeder lambs. Little cattle—both steers and heifers—are selling to relatively killer demand than stronger weight steers, the latter arriving freely after being held back in anticipation of higher prices which did not materialize. Greater quota of the hog offering is made up of spring-farrowed pigs averaging from 190 to 240 lbs. which are selling within the narrowest spread of the season. Buyers are favoring full wool iambs, a favorable pelt-credit allowance acting against shorn stock. Meat stocks at the outset of this month showed substantial increases compared with a year earlier, gains being as follows: Beef, 20 per cent; pork, 9 per cent; all meats and edible offal, 10 per cent; lard, 1 per cent. Compared with a month ago, however, beef increased 33 per cent, pork dropped 9 per cent, with all meats off 4 per cent and lard down 10 per cent. All classes show decrease compared with the November 1 fine average. Handicapping the dressed products, particularly beef and lamb at this time, however, is the large amount of turkey in storage. Holdings on November 1 were 8,028,000 lbs., a supply of more than double the total of a year earlier and also more than 50 per cent in excess of the five-year average for this period. All kinds of poultry also show a much larger total than a month earlier and an excess compared with both a year ago and the November 1 five-year average. Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Laughlin spent Tuesday evening in Nappanee.
