Henry C. Mabie of Boston, who is in Omaha speaking under the auspicés of the Baptist Brotherhood of Omaha. He spoke this morning at Grace Baptist church, Tenth and Arbor streets. His - subject was “Christianity and the World War.” He blamed the agnosticism of the European thought largely for the present warring condition of Europe, holding that if these people really were Christians at heart they would not be fighting today. Dr. Mabie has traveled for twefty- five years in Europe and in the Orient, traveling much in Japan and China. He spoke of Japan and China as the awakening nations, and traced their progress in adopting the Chr tian religion. He said bne of the d ficulties the missionaries encounter in Japan is that Japan feels its dignity in being so old a nation. “Why should you come here and endeavor to teach us religion, when America is so young a nation and we are so old a nation?” is what the Japa- nese say to the American mission- arics.

When I arrived on the scenc a big crowd was around the dogs and I found the owner of the other dog trying to beat Jack off with a club. Jack had hold of that dog between the jaw and the collar- bone and he had the bulldog grip on him. He had found what his jaws were good for. When we got them separated, the other dog rolled over, ‘all in,” but Jack was able to navigate home under his own steam. “Jack typifies to me the forces which are winning such wonderful victories in prohibition. For a long we were inclined to smile at them as dreamers. Our children might li to see it, we thought, but not we day that ‘dream’ is nearly realized. Four great states joined the dry col- umn at the recent clection and two others elected legislatures pledged to enact prohibitory statutes. “This, then, is*what we have to be most thankful for in the year, the fact that our ‘civic consciousness and our national conscience have been reborn. Our material prosperity, the vast ad- ditions to our wealth from the soil, our throbbing industries, all these things are good and we arc duly thankful for them. But the awak- ened national, state and city con- science is a much greater thing than these.” Rev. Dr. Hugh B. Speer, pastor of the Central United Presbyterian church, was in charge of the service. One of the prayers was offered by Rev. Fred J. Clark, new pastor of the First Congregational church.

Shop Early in the month— in the day set there are many reasons for which we should be very, very thankful. Bountiful crops, good health, happy homes, towns and cities free from war’s ravages, and a kindly Provi- dence—all contribute great- ly in making this Thanks- giving the happiest of our lives. And also, in this oppor- tune season, we may be permitted to set forth some of the reasons which enable us as a store to find abun- dant cause for thanksgiving. Not only the time and the circumstances allow it, but in a real and substantial sense the interests of our friends and patrons are so linked with us as to make it a mat- ter of concern to them. 1t is of importance to the man and woman who by their choice of this store, give it support and the strength that it is able to devote’ to their interest in return, that the store on which they depend, should have not only the de- sire to serve, but the ability. A store and its patrons form a mutualized institution; the patrons give the strength to the store and the store uses it for them. It cannot be strong without them; they lack certain elements of strength without it. For that reason it is of con- cern, not only to us, but also to the general public into whose homes our 'merchan- dising service goes, that our business enjoys a marked in- crease in volume this Thanksgiving over that of last Thanksgiving. increase is an increase in strength, an increase in the ability to serve the communi- ty, a service which is de- signed for the benefit of the community and its citizens and therefore of concern to them. This prosperity is not only ma- terial to us. It is important to the public. It means not only the success of our store as a business institution, but power to it as an instrument of public benefit.
