Newton. This attractive little volume pub- lished in Bismarck deserves review. ‘A book containing one good poem is worth publishing, and this book con- tains at least four such poems. “Be- yond The Hill” has many lines of beauty, while the poem as a whole, perfect in form, calls forth heart- response. “Where North Dakota Comes In” electrifies with firm ap- preciation of the State, without: the extravagance appearing in some - poems on the same subject. ‘“No- blesse Oblige” sings into the very heart a moral lesson, while the heart willingly responds, even if feeling rebuke; and this is a rare feat for a poet to accomplish, “The Old Gate” ig far more than a family- reunion poem, it touches the ever- lasting strings of “home, sweet home.” And besides these poems, “Voice and “The Missouri River’ are well ‘done. We must wait a little before attempting to appraise the closing poem “Insistent France ang Kaiser THE SPARK PLUG Vitamins to nourishment are what a spark-plug is to a motor. | t | 4 sand calories of food daily, yet if this food is not activated by vitamins the body is un- able to thrive in health: or; strength. - +4 dress preserved in ow. § The book is a rey id literature of our Sta‘e.

The evidence of God's goodness and bounty in sustenance, health, and happiness is, despite our unworthiness, ever present to invite thanks- giving and praise. ‘The excellence of the government established by our forefathers, and the peace and tranquility we enjoy thereunder, should also be a constant cause for thanksgiving. It is well also to obgerve a special day h year when those who believe in a Supreme being may unite in giving Him, from whom all good proceeds, thanks for the manifold blessings enjoyed. Surely this year, when abundant crops and fair prices bring increasing pros- perity to our people and when renewed devotion to orderly govern- ment and the consequent stability brot increased peace and tran- quility to other nations also, long ce grown weary from the rai ages of war and radicalism, there is added reason for observing the day with joyful spirit and thankful heart. NOW, TITEREFORE, In harmony with the pr mation of the President of the United States, I, R. A. Nestos, Governor of the State of North Dakota, do hereby proclaim \ THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1924, as a DAY OF THANKSGIVING ND PRAYER and I do most earnestly urge the people of the state .to observe the | day in the spirit in which it was established, renewing their loyalty to God, and to the national ideals for which those who ésiablished and first observed the day suffered and sacrificed so much; helpfully remembering the less fortunate who during these days of plenty in our own homes are suffering the pangs of hunger, and the hardships of inadequate clothing and shelter. « I do especially urge our citizenship to gather.in their places worship and at the family altars to der thanksgiving and p unto God for His many mercies and for His protecting care of state and_ nation. In a spjrit of loyalty to our country, it would seem right and pro- per that the flag should he displayed thruout the day on all public buildings and wherever possible upon the homes of our. people. Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the State of North Dakota at the capitol at Bismarck, this 18th day of November, A. D. 1924. (Seal). Thomas Hall, Secretary of States R. A. NESTOS, Governor.
