In 1824 Daniel Webster received 4,990 votes out of 6,000 cast for a Massachusetts seat in congress. tin wrenies or) An impecunious foreign nobleman who marries an American heiress seems to make a fair exchange, after all. He wants money, she wants a title. Then when both get what they are after they may be happily divorced. Twenty Key Westers voted for a comic strip figure against Duncan U. Fletcher for the United States senate. Nebb, the figure in question, is a daily feature in the Miami Herald. This seems to point to the fact that the Herald has twenty subscribers in Key West.—Miami Post. ‘Florida {8 a commonwealth within which every worthy person ‘from every clime is welcomed, whethér as a new citi- zen or visitor; where millionaires with the whole world to choose from come and build their stately mansions; where professional men and women and men of industry find recreation, where an intelligent hospitable, energetic and patriotic citizenship lives, labors and loves. Henry L. Doherty, who does things in the grand manner, has invited Governor Carlton, Governor-elect Dave Sholtz, all sorts of cabinet ministers, as well as all the Florida mayors and publishers of daily newspapers, to stay at the Miami Biltmore for Florida Week. At Mr. Doherty’s ex- pense, of course. So, starting next Wednes- day, we will see many strange faces in these here parts. Pieskrts Bee We hear that the young generation is all to the bad. That's just what our elders said about us a generation ago. Recently there was found in Egypt a papyrus more than 2,000 years old, wherein an old man complained about the doings of his son say- ing complainingly that in his time the boys didn’t do such things. trend of the times and wondered what this -world is coming to. Just what we are say- ing today. Nature changes very little, even in twenty centuries, ['VING Opservence of a day of by the Pilgrims after their in 1621 was the beginning of become a national custom is weli The story of how this custom, Adually became widespread has also be4n frequently told. ! But few of this generation know that the establishment of a uniform date for Thanksgiving Day was brought about by a woman, Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale, born in Newport, N. H., in 1788. Left a widow with five children she took up writing as a means of support, and was the editor of a@ women’s magazine from 1828 until 1877. She founded the first Seaman’s Aid Society in Boston, raised a large sum in aid of the Bunker Hill monument and was j active in many movements for the advance- ment of women. When in her early forties Mrs. Hale began her long campaign for making Thanksgiving Day a national holi- day and its celebraiton on the same date throughout the country. For about twenty years she wrote edi- torials in her magazine, and bombarded presidents and governors with personal let- ters in support of the idea. Finally Presi- dent Lincoln adopted her suggestion in 1864 and designated the fourth Thursday of November as a day of national Thanks- giving. Since then his example has been followed by al! succeeding presidents. While it will seem to many that they have little in the way of material blessings for which to be thankful this year, we may be mindful of the spirit of sympathy and practical helpfulness which has greatly de- veloped during the trying times through which we are passing. Never before has stich interest been shown in the plight of the unfortunate, nor more earnest and sacrificing efforts made for their retief. For these manifestations we may be thank- ful, as well as for the indications that con- ditions have begun to improve, and that faith in our national future is fully justi- fied. BLIND AIDS BLIND It is characteristic of Helen Keller, the deaf and blind genius, that she should give the $5,000: prize recently awarded her for achievement by a national magazine to the American Foundation for the Blind, for which she is raising an endowmentefund of two million dollars. Miss Keller, bor: in Tuscumbia, Ala., in 1880, became deaf and blind at the age of 19 months as a result of illness. Her education was undertaken by Miss Anne Sullivan, whose skill and patience were re- warded by Miss Keller’s graduation from Radcliffe Coliege in 1904, Since that time Miss Keller has become as author of note, a lecturer, and one of the most effective workers for the welfare of others similarly afflicted. In announcing her gift, she said: “I am going to use the $5,000 to assist other persons like myself, deaf and blind. You who can see have no idea how those live in double darkness, the prison of the body which is blindness, and the dungeon of the mind-which is silence. But this “double darkness” has. not prevented Helen Keller from becoming one of the world’s greatest women, whose splendid intellect is matched by her sym- pathetic heart. BUSINESS PROSPECTS Now that the campaign is over, the statement that the year 1932 has been one of the worst business years of the last half century will not be charged as_ political propaganda, The campaign statements that business had improved and hundreds of thousands of men re-employed were open to very grave doubt. These statements of re- employment did not take into considera- tion the number of additional men laid off. Plants controlled by the same cor- porate organizations were alternately opened and closed in numbers of instances, the plants closed offsetting the plants open- ed in the matter of employment of labor. Some of this business juggling was for political effect. Some of it was for the pur- pose of keeping the plants in shape. The best that can be said for present- worse. As our country never stands still very long, there is plenty reason for anticipating improvement. working Thus He deplored the! day conditions is that they are getting no!
