Take it from Governor Templeton, who s: that the jingle of the New Year's bells on January 1, 1925, will be music to | his ears. | The governor has learned that one | cannot occupy that exalted office with pleasure unless he lets others tell him what to do. The “others” in Conne: ticut consist chiefly of J. Hefiry Ror- jaback, big boss of the republican par- ‘l_\'. Governor Templeton had not bheen in offi long before he heard from !the “machine” of which the hand- !some J. Henry is engineer. Perhaps all the cylinders were not hitting har- fioniously, but whatevér the reason was, the noise grated on the gover- nor's ears, and he said so. That was the beginning of the end of Mr. Tem- pleton’s popularity with the big bosses. During his term of office he has been buffeted around by the men who ! worked to elect him gecause he had {done almost all of his own thinking and because they have been unable to chart the course for the ship of state. Governor Templeton made a ‘‘nev- again” speech this week at a church in Hartford, saying among other things: “I have done what I | felt was best and I'm going to stick through to the end of my term. But I want to tell you men that the New Year's bells of 1925 will be a joyful sound to Governor Templeton,” Leaders in the republican party have taken pleasure in “heckling” the governor in respect to his official acts. ey have belittled his suggestions and have done their best to humiliate him in the eyes of the people.

[factions that had come to him from the Father of the Universe. He was, only an ordinary citizen, but he, as an individual, was typical of a nation which uttered thanks for the blessings of the past year. In its original form Thanksgiving Day was what its name suggested. It was a day given over to expressing thanks to the Giver of all gifts. Even today, it is only slightly tainted with commercialism. Secondary in im- ;porlance to its religious aspect, are | the family reunions. From afar sons and daughters gather under the roof- tree of the old homestead, be it ever so humble, to sit again with the old folks and enjoy that generous bounty which knows no limit. Every heart |is warmed by the glow of parental love, the same love which burned when the children were babes in arms. Mother with her sleeves rolled up and refusing all assistance ushers in the courses of the meal, oftentimes with an apology for the cooking “because I didn'ts have good luck this year.” ‘While sentiment may be forgotten in the hour or more devoted to eating, it |lurks in the background and is ever | present throughout the day. Who among us, is not truly grateful | for all the goodness that Providence | has bestowed during the veffir? Peace |and prosperity have truly made our | country a great place in which to | live for it surely seems that God has emiled upon us and given generously of His gifts. Within every human heart there was longing to be able to tell God just how thankful we were to Him gnd ask Him to be as gener- ous in the coming year. oo e “Waal,” drawled my friend BRBill Bumps as he dropped into a one armed lunch chair and began to stir No telling how long they will let him stay liome.
