It seems that in one respect the g
Irish question is like liauquo's ghost. t
"It will not down." i
It Congress keeps on it will re- .
P-. solve, itself into a "Committee of In- ,
Testi gabion." It might pay to have a '.
ten year holiday around the capital. 11
Mr. Bryan may yet live to see the (
It , 4a> when lie can truly say. "I had1.
* rather be right than president." I j
L Uncle Sam's ten year holiday pro-;,
V posal was a "solar plexus" to the as- j
I scmbled foreign delegates to the d is- j j
I imminent conference. | ^
The Governor has said "no" to any j
public building program for next!t
year and it probable that there will {
bo many echoes of approval of this j
position from the mountains to the e
seaboard. c
; s
It looks as if all that is binding as \
a result of the disarmament confer- E
<wice will look very much like the i
League of Nations. I
c
Today will be hailed with delight f,
by many a fellow who has laid in la
bit. stock of ammunition nn^t had
longed for freedom of the woods. c
a
Tt would seem that some of the v,
opposition to Mr. Ford's offer for ?
Muscle Shoals is the fear that he f
<??uld really give some significance y
q> the first part of the name. n

We raise the question of proprie-1
ty of an Associated Charities for our ^
town. Hardly a day passes but that j
there are*appeals to help some one
claimed to be in need or distress. A
la.?ge number of people are benevoentlv
inclined . mil w*;iiin<?
?, - - "4* I" "^*1' i .\
any worthy benevolent object, but \
tliey have no opportunity ot' knowing if
the circumstances or the worthiness
if the appeal. Sometimes these are H
presented by irresponsible parties anil
the benevolently inclined make a ^
contribution on the ground that they
rather assist some who are unworthy ^
than to mis3 one worthy case. It
appears to us that the town is of suf- y
ficient size now and the charity
problem is sufficiently complex to
warrant the organization of an Associated
Charities to take over such j.work
in our community. We are
aot pressing the matter but feel constrained
to raise the question of the
propriety of the consideration of such w
a move and call upon the citizens of Sl
the town to think it over and see if j '-v
some practical plan cannot be devis- 151
e<l to handle what is becoming more' f
a difficult and complex problem in ,^
our midst. S(.
THE CHIME WAVE. to
It is probably true that the crime on
wave which has been sweeoinir over ni;
cur country during the past few bu
years is gradually receding, yet it is _
still present in sufficent volume to ;
cause alarm. There is still a multiplicity
of killing and taking human
life and the citizenship of the land
is being driven to the point where a jj.'
more positive stand must be taken ^()
in behalf of the preservation of hu-j(j,
man life. In this particular type of j?
. crime Dillon county has a good rec- eo
ord of late. It has been some time th
aince there was a case in the county G.
ocurt for murder and this fact has eel
been commented upon by presiding
^ judges. It is to be hoped that we G.
V can keep up this record. And in this 1,1
ccnnection it may be added that this
t county has been conspicuous by the
absence of cases of self destruction
which has been become prevalent in
the country at large. While we are
aware of the fact that conditions can n<
change at any time, and we are not ni
giving ourselves to undue exultation, c
still it is noteworthy that we have in
"6en remarkably free from the above ui
and it ought to be the aspiration of H
the citizenship of our county that we hl
ahalj become even freer of every sort a
of crime than we are. r*

THANKSGIVING. 1
ft. is interesting to study the different
attitudes assumed toward
thanksgiving and what is known as
Thanksgiving Day. To some it is sim- t
ply a day of cessation from labor (l
while to others it is an opportunity c
roi irivoiny. mere are* ino.se wno *
will have the joy of happy family F
gatherings while others will he bar- 1
red such pleasure. Some will see in *
it an occasion for revelling in their
blessings while others will be led to
"rte profoundly grateful for any blessitr*
which have come upon them
and in case they have been deprived
of. these they will still be of thankful
heart to Him who never makes a
mistake. A very fine thanksgiving
spirit is displayed in the following:
"This is Thanksgiving day. Its observance
ought to be in the best sense
religious. And it might be well to this ^
end to review the feelings and emotions
with which we approach It ,
Much of our thankfulness may be ]

pvrely selfish. The Vnily circle has
-emained unbroken.^o wasting slcktess
has come intoj the home. Prosperity
has left its blessings. The
,able is laden with plenty. There is
neat in the larder and grain in the
storehouse. Becausf of these things
hey imagine they are grateful; but
mch gratitude is of the essence of
selfishness. It is dependent upon exerior
conditions. ] It finds its basis
n circumstances, it draws its iuspirition
from clear /skies and smooth
.ailing, hence it id fitful and evanescent
as tlio alternations of sunlight
md shadow. If tjiese conditions of
ursonai comfort and prosperity are
n themselves the, ground of thanksfulness,
where in the hour of adversity
shall we find occasion for rejoicing?
The recdrd of the past has
ts graver side. Tjiere have been pain
md losses and disappoinmtents and
K-reavements and heartaches. Where
n these things ip there reason and
;round for gratitude? Has the empty
arder, the bare table, the desolate
tome, the vacanft chair, the fresh
nound in the cemetery, no place for
hanksglvlng? A,h, just here is the
joint of stumbling with many an
earnest soul, we find in the bitter
hill of adversity the true test of our
:ratitude. And that is true gratitude
vhich, triumphing over conditions
uerely physical and external, finds
ts ground of thankfulness in God
limself. It is independent of cirumstances.
It goes beneath the surace
of life, whether sad or joyous,
nd found itself upon God." This is
relj out and we commend it to thp
cnslderation of our people as our
ttention is once more in a special
ay directed to thanksgiving.
For the fruit of the time of our toil

Whether horn of the brain or the soil
