The first said: “Changing Thanksgiving date is not as bail as it sounds when we think of what .Roosevelt has done and may yet do before his term is out." “Politically speaking he (Roosevelt) is dead so what he proposes to do with Thanksgiving phould not disturb the nation." * 1 I am not saying much of anything out loud but 1 am thinking a lot." “Garner will be the next president and out will go New Dealers with Thanksgiving being returned to a date it has earned in history.” “One more like that and the Re publicans will be wearing crepe in sympathy with a dying political party.” Co.

'his Reciprocal Trade Treaties to bring a fair share of the national income to the farmers, or has it, to announce the moving up of Thanksgiving Day one week earlier. This is to be further moved up the following year one week more. Map makers have ,long since given up hbpq of keeping abreast of- the changing times, and now it would appear that calendar printers have similar wor ries. But then holidays are dear to ■Mr. Roosevelt. No president .in the history qf the nation has enjoyed as many week-end holidajys, or taken as many junkets at the taxpayers ex pense on naval ships as he hds. The announcement of this change was made in order to further separate Thanksgiving from Christmas that the shoppers would have more time to concentrate on their Christmas pur chases. Thanksgiving goes back to the very beginning of our great country. It goes back to the Pilgrims, who in 1620, came of their own free will to found homes in the wilderness, where, un molested, they might worship God ac cording to their conscience. In No vember, following their arrival, and a year fraught with hardships and disaster, they set aside the last Thurs day in the month to give thanks to God for his goodness. It was and has been a religious day in the truest sense of the word. It is not fitting that this day should be changed merely because of commercialism. It would be as fitting to change the date of Christmas. Tradition has enriched the day many fold, and it should not be kicked about on the calendar from year to year that a few might profit financially. Mtfch of the original significance if the day will.be lost be cause of the abandon with which wo are about to toss i t about. Our fore fathers toiled and underwent untold hardships that they might give to us the greatest nation on the face of the earth. They did this under the guild- ing and benevolent hand of the Great Creator, and though not lightly of it, Should wc then, tightly cast aside a dny just to suit th e , shop keepers, that they so sincerely believed in and celebrated annually on the last Thurs day of November? Let us carry on the tradition they solemnly began, un changed. R. W. MacGREGOR. “The American people have become used to shooks from Roosevelt. He never has had much reverence for the Sabbath Day, let aionq Thanksgiving.” “ In the past turkey has been head of the Thanksgiving 'menus in most American homes but Rbosevelt is handing the Democrats a dish of crow for this' coming feast day." “To me the man (Roosevelt) must be out of his mind.” “Had he changed Thanksgiving to Monday following Sunday, he then could have two days for fun, frolic and fishing.” t “Did you stop to think he (Roose velt) was on foreign soil when he is sued his Thanksgiving removal day edict?” (A g u e s to f Hing George’s people in N. B .)' “On second thought I doubt if many merchants a month-from now will want their name connected with the endorsement' of a change in Thanks giving dates." ’ . - “It makes no difference to me but when the thousands of good men and women th a t have kept the faith of their forefathers in the Thanksgiving tradition are heard from, Roosevelt may conclude to leave well enough a- lone.” ‘■Thanksgivings will come and go after (D. D.) is written to the Roose velt name.” (Dead Democrat). “Everything has been wrong with the world since the day Roosevelt heard his father’s will read and that must have been on Thanksgiving Day" “If we have the name Roosevelt coming from the Holland, Roosenfelt, then may be Thanksgiving Day should be changed to meet some feast day in that European country.” “I am wondering what the Scotch man, John L. Lewis, said when he first heard Roosevelt’s order for a change in Thanksgiving Day?" “I imagine that Thanksgiving serv ice for Roosevelt can be any day, much like Sunday observance. Judging from Monday morning papers when he attended church the day before the news story sounded much like Gov. Davey entering an Ohio city with sirens scronming and police escort.” “Speaking as a Democrat I recall Roosevelt's threat last week that he would bolt the Democratic nominee if not to bis likihg. His last jesture is that of a clown, he is ‘taking a walk’ whether he is conscious or unconscious of it.” “Even the King of England cannot change important dates in that coun try so why should Roosevelt make such a foolish blunder?” Local Motorists ’ In Auto Crash The automobiles of Ernest Smith, 28, going east-on Route 42, and Robert Hill, 67, going west, sideswiped Sun day, the latter’s car going into the ditch and tearing down a'fence. Hill suffered a slight stroke Tuesday which is’supposed to have been the re sult of a nervous breakdown following the accident. Neither of the drivers were thought to have been injured. Fire was discovered in. the roof of the William Rife country home Tues day afternoon, starting from use of a blow torch by painters. .A call was made for the local fire department but it was impossible under insurance rules to make the trip. Then it was a problem of water supply also. Messrs. Lloyd Confarr and Walter CummingB went to the home to give aid and soon a backet brigade of neigh bors. kept water "passing to the roof while Confarr and Cummings soon had the fire under control. The loss was small but only timely aid saved the home from complete loss. COMENCEMENT FRIDAYMORNMC Physical Director^ Cedarville College Road Improvements Making Headway In This Section One of the best pieces of road build ing we have seen in this section is the improvement of the Federal pike from the Jamestown-Xenia pike intersection to a point some distance east of where the Wilmington road enters the Federal. The contractors have been trying out a new road building ma chine where the road binder and stone are mixed in the same operation while laying a coat on the roadway. It is a splendid piece of work on that road. The contractors for the widening and resurfacing of the Columbus pike between Cedacville and Xenia are making good headway and are keep ing the road open for traffic other than a short delay for one way-traffic a t one point; It will requite a t least six Weeks, more to complete the contract. ‘ HOWARD E.

Dear Editor: , We,-started on Monday, August the seventh a t seyen o’clock and came through Columbus and Weirton, West Virginia. As we traveled through Eastern Ohio and part of West Vir ginia we noticed that the land is very rough and the crops raised chiefly are corn and oats. The corn fields are .mere patches averaging about three to four acres each. We saw many fields of* oats, which had hot been thrashed and we did not see a combine until we got nearly thirty miles east of Pitts burgh. We arrived at Pittsburgh at five o’clock but were' too late to visit the Heinz Factory as we had expected to do. After eating supper in Pitts burgh, we Went on about sixty miles to Greensburgb where we slept in a Y. M. C. A., because it was raining very hard. We got up at 3 p. m., the following morning and traveled sixty miles be fore breakfast. Wo visited “The Leader Poultry Farms” at York, Pan, where are kept more than eleven thou sand white Leghorn chickens. We then Went to “The Lauxmont Farms” a t Wrightsville, Pa. We then camped that night in Thomville, Pa. Wednesday morning we went on the Philadelphia Locomotive Works, the Baldwin Locomotive Works, the United States Mint, and Independence Hall where the Liberty Bell is housed. We drove on into New Jersey where we saw the Walkcr-Gordon Farm. At this dairy fifty mechanical milkers on a continually turning plat form milk fourteen hundred cows three times daily. Thursday we traveled Oh across New Jersey until wo came to Newark where there is a largo airport which serves Now York City, Wo all took a fifteen minute ride Out over Manhat tan, Wo then drove on to New York and set up, camp, a t 4 P, M, All of the boys changed clothes and went down* town to see Times Square and Broadway, Friday everyone went to the Fair. We saw many interesting things but the most interesting to nearly every one was. the General Motors Exhibit. It was too wonderful to describe. Most of us are going back to the Fair today. We have traveled seven hundred and twenty seven miles up- to this time. Sincerely, WALLACE COLLINS, Traveler Club Reporter. Gasoline Stove Exploded, Monday A gasoline stove. J n the .home of Miss Etta Bull, who resides near the Bryan State Farm, exploded Monday when attempt was made to start a fire. Miss Bull fought the flames and was fortunate enough in the farm hand gging to the house on an errand, not knowing1about the fire. With his aid and water the fire was extinguished but not until much of the. interior of the room had been burned or damaged. Discussed Wheat Crop Insurance E. A, Drake, agricultural agent of Greene County, and Harry Donohoo; Wilmington, district field manager for the agricultural conservation program, were speakers at a meeting for dis cussion of the>1940 wheat control pro gram and wheat crop insurance here Monday. Forty Greene County town ship committeemen'attended the meet ing. Sheriff and Deputies Have New Uniforms Greene. Co. Sheriff and Deputies now appear in a new uniform to conform with a new law, the same to apply to all counties in the state. Constables, marshals and city police must do the same,- although the latter have for years feeen compelled to wear regula tion uniforms, There has been so much crooked stuff pulled on motorists through constables and justices of the peace in certain places, notably near larger cities, that the legislature took this means of requiring certain uni forms so that motorists would know who the regular officers are.
