We have so much to be thankful for! Yet we can but dimly see thru the mists of joy that gather in our eyes a few of the good things which are falling on our heads and on all the world. The first Thanksgiving day on the shores of New Eng- land in 1621 was celebrated by the Pilgrims in solemn fast- ing and prayer. Bountiful harvests had scattered famine shadows as sunlight drives away gloom after rain. That was a solemn Thanksgiving day, the first cele- brated after the close of the great civil conflict of the '60’s. Our grandfathers and grandmothers bowed in thankfulness | for the freedom of 4,000,000 bondmen, for the returning heroes of liberty, for the honor of the noble dead, for an undivided country. We who gather on this Thanksgiving day have greater cause for thankfulness than has fallen to any generation since the Annunciation. We see a world with shackles broken and dungeons demolished. We see liberty proclaimed to all the peoples of the We see the Brotherhood af Man approaching “on the wings of the morning.” We see America’s sons returning victorious over des- potism, crowned witft glory. We see the graves of the fallen sons of Liberty become the landmarks of Freedom, the holy shrines of the New We see our favored land secure from famine and un- touched by the torch, riding on the waves of world events to a greater leadership of mankind, to a purer, deeper pros- perity than it has ever known, than its founders ever en- visioned in their most exalted moments. In our secure homes, in our places of congregation and worship we'll gather with melodies in our hearts, with songs on our lips. Never have we known such a Thanksgiv- ing day as this. Never can we know such another until the advent of Endless Thanksgiving day. Coming on the heels of the disbarment proceedings in the Gill, Hoyt & Frye case, and the extraordinary leniency in that instance, the decision by the supreme court against poe c Mills, Seattle attorney, borders on the barbaric Mills is disbarred by the supreme court for life, tho the bar examiners recommended him suspended only for one year. He was accused of carrying a sealed letter to a man with whom a client of his had a quarrel. This letter was given him by his client, and appears to have contained a blackmail threat. Mills contended that he did not know what the letter stated—and he was acquitted in criminal proceedings. The bar examiners, however, held that he should have known what the letter contained—and therefore recommended him for one year’s suspension. But the supreme court imposed a sentence of life suspension. In the Gill, Hoyt & Frye case, it appeared that the firm was of employing professionals to drum up business for them—and that many of the clients thus obtained were those who had dealings with the police at a time when Hiram C. Gill was mayor. In this case the bar examiners also recommended temporary suspension. But they were not suspended. The supreme court was too compassionate. It was overcome with pity and an- nounced that the publicity that attended the case was OT Conkrest tne ts . it the two cases—and it is enough to sicken an. lover of fair play. . " Mills opposed several of the members of the supreme court bench, and in one or two races almost won a place on the supreme court. supreme court judges may say they were not in- fluenced by this fact, and by the fact that Mills had criti- cised them rather severely in his campaigns. In all prob- ility, these judges yr 4 think there was no animosity in their decision. But they are only human—tho once judges, like kaisers, were believed to be divine. And for small men, it is human to be spiteful and revengeful. Contrast the Mills verdict—the life sentence—with the Gill, Hoyt & Frye case—where the “publicity” was enough punishment—and if there is any sense of decency left in the supreme court, it should bury its head in shame.

He really helped win the war for us. The man who went over there and fought in the hell) of shrapnel and shell to bring victory out of the deluge of death, he’s the man who won this war. } We can give due credit to all the rest of us, Marshal} Foch, President Wilson, General Pershing, Hoover, Gar-| field, Baruch, Schwab, the toilers in field, factory and mine, the women who worked that our boys might win, and all of us who saved and served here at home. | But the greatest portion of fame, and the larger share | of our thanks rightly belong to the boys who went over) there. | Pass them another helping of turkey, mother, and heap | high the plate. | They've earned that. The two million and more who went across the Atlantic, | risked more than we who stayed at home. They gave more. They sacrificed more. They fought! | They faced bullets. They gave of their life blood. They | sacrificed their limbs. And thousands of them have gone} on-into eternity from which they never will return. | Compared with what they did over there our war efforts here at home pale into shadows. Let us not forget that now, and never in the years That is the verdict of ie vgs The world isn’t big enough to afford him a hiding place. Holland may not brave the wrath and scorn of civiliza- tion by affording him asylum. His friends in Germany may not dare the indignation of mankind by protecting him by a mock trial. The Judas of the 20th century is no less guilty of in- nocent blood than the Judas of the first century. On this man’s hands are the red stains of the blood of 10,000,000 slain. It must not cry in vain for justice. No set of men may pipe the strains of forgiveness for this personified murderer. No isle on the map, no fortress- in the world is a secure place to immure such a viperish plotter against mankind. Deposed kings never are an asset and always are a liability to the world. This man is suspected of plotting against the peace of the very country which shelters him; of intriguing with the elements of anarchy to vent his venom on the victorious entente allies and the United States by stirring up internal disturbances and by creating disunion in their councils at this, the most critical time since the creation. Not enough the encarmined record he has made in the bitter months since August, 1914. Not enough the bill of costs his conduct has saddled on us, on our children and our children’s children. Not enough to glut his lust for dominion or destruction. His appetite for evil is as keen, as unsatisfied as ever. So he plots on and on, Why have the victors so long delayed in taking steps to deal with this menace to mankind? It is a question the world may well begin to ask in strident tones unless action comes sure and soon. Are they debating what steps to take? Why argue? The world never will be safe, its air never will be clean while William Hohenzollern lives and breathes. Safety first! _Herr Hohenzollern rises to remark that he is not a taeuice. If he values his skin he’d better hustle wp and e one, to come. A grateful people are grateful to them. And we are large enough in mind and sympathy to have a supply of thanks broad enough to cover each one} who aided in the wonderful victory our boys over there won for us. We are thankful this day to the millions of} our boys who trained and toiled that they might be ready for the supremest duty of man when called upon. They | have awaited the call from over there, and would have} gone gloriously and bravely. | A nation of mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, will not fail in its impulse of gratitude to these soldiers who were halted this side of the Atlantic, for the nation knows full well their courage and readiness for great war | sacrifice. So, too, the nation is grateful to the millions of others | who placed their shoulders to the gigantic wheel of war and aided in the super-nation task of pushing it to con- clusive and final victory. This is America’s most wonderful day of thanks, for America has much to give thanks for and many to whom thanks are due. As never before this is a day of thanksgiving, in every home and every heart. It widens beyond purely territorial boundaries and stretches into the broken homes of Bel-| gium, Serbia, Russia, Rumania, Northern France, and into} the hearts of honest people of the world. * | It is the first all-world Thanksgiving Day. All races and nations this day give thanks for the return of peace, and all the peoples of all the countries allied against the | foes of democracy and liberty this day are thankful that FREEDOM has come FOR ALL, and there is strongest assurance that it will last FOREVER! A devout people thanks God for the coming of this! day, for the rising sun of peace upon earth, and for the! obliteration of the cruel enemy of humanity and human justice.

But I couldn't discuss my domestic hurts, I couldn't confesa that I was disappointed in my husband, or own up that he was unhappy, even to my dearest friend. I was brought up to believe that It is distinctly vulgar for a wife to complain about her husband to another woman, But of course there is no harm in talking about matrimony in a general way, so I went on: “Martha, what's your idea of the ‘just average’ attitude of woman to marriage?” “It's one of mystery, my dear, ex mystery, You know the kind of a girl who poses a# nature's supreme riddie—the kind who thinks she can hold her man forever and a day, no matter how selfish and lagy she is, | by playing the sphinx—coquettish one hour, aloof the next—but always! trailing the sex lure.” “I recognize her—it's a fad nowadays for a girl to be cryptic—when | she's only a parasite,” I agreed. ‘But pretty soon, doesn't the husband find out that she has about the same mystery as—as—a vacuum?” | “To he sure—so he treats her like a little child,” said Martha. “Good- ness knows, I'd hate to have Evan humoring me all the time—ag if 1 were not a responsible and a capable human being!” And goodness know#—thought I—that {s exactly the way my husband always treated me!

Certels, however, proves constantly that he respects my ability and independence. Even Bremer had said in the fisherman's shack, “She'll be game.” Daddy Lorimer delights in the way I manage to “keep things stirred up.” But Bob?
