An event which heralded the beginning of bur country, its faith in God and its belief in the dignity of the individuaL Through the nearly three and one-half centuries since eventful day this nation has grown from a wilderness, to a small confederation, to its present millions in the 48 States, Alaska, the District. of Columbia and oar possessions. The fact, that as a people, we have-been grateful to God in His goodness has played no small part in our growth and our happi-aess as a nation and as a people In this year 1952 the American people have much for which to be thankful? War has still been spared our shores despite the present Korean conflict sapping our young manhood.

The democratic process has been strengthened in this year of '1952 with more and more persons casting their ballots at the polk in the recent national election. This is a healthy 'sign for our future. Democracy is as strong as the numbers of people, who, as citizens accept its duties and obligations. In this Thanksgiving Season Americans will do well to humbly thank their God for His manifold goodness the blessings of home, family, the material and spiritual wealth of our nation, i j- vul sucugui auti "iJrltltJ Ha it fZsiA TT. thankful litlitartPH vvvvvvvt-v-tvvvttv Charles H.

Rose of Gowanda, Sez Zig to Zag They tell us that at least 30,000,000 turkey gobblers and hens are to be carved up for Thanksgiving dinners In these United States today, which seems to us to be quite a lot. They also tell us that the turkey is the large.it of all the barnyard fowls and also the most stupid. Not being too conversant with the breed, this is purely hearsay as far as we are concerned. Zag: But to get back to the 30 million, it does look as if practically everybody in the country will be eating turkey at one time or another, depending on when they eat, today. With something over 150 million people here, that would make about four' and one half perf sons per bird.

And, if the average turkey weighs around a dozen pounds, then we will each be able to appropriate In the neighborhood of three pounds for our own- gas tronomic. Joy. No wonder everybody gets, sick by night-time. Zig: Now, as to the stupidity of said bird, who -we must confess. certainly reaches the heights on this one day.

least, the experts claim Hhat his head-? is -Just too small for his body! In other wor SB there isn't enough brains in the bird to take 'care of the flesh and feathers of it. And there, are lots of stories around to prove it. Zaa: They tell one tad tale about the young gobbler, who happened to be sitting under the edge of a sloping roof one afternoon, Just gazing around at nothing in particular. It was cloudy and all of a sudden a rain storm came up. A drop of water came off the corner of the roof and hit the turkey right on his head.

As most anybody would, the turkey looked up to see what in the world, was happening. Other drops came and the turkey, still not being able, to fathom the mystery, held his position, with mouth wide open. Finally It be came a real storm ana we poor turkey was drowned. When they found him his body and tail feathers were still dry but his little heart was submerged In rain water. Zig: We don't mean to upset you over the death of one turkey gob bler the one you are partaking of today, has also gone the way of all flesh, as you well know.

The flesh of him Is great and white and succulent, even If his brain Is dwarfed and grizzled for what little work It has to do. Now who ever heard of eating turkey brains anyway and it Just might be that he knows It's his flesh not his brains that people relish, If that's the case, he's not so dumb after all. chairman of -the Christmas Party Dlanned for Dec. 11.

GARDENER What a banquet! What food! What stories! What a good talk! What am I talking about Why the social garden event of the year, the annual banquet of the Men's Garden Club of Hamburg, held down at the American Le gion Hall.

Sorry, I can't tell you any of the Jokes my memory Is not too good, but I can tell you something about the talk as that was on gardening, which I can understand. Carl HuthstelnerV assistant county agent and Joe Morgano, a fruit and vegetable grower of Brant, put on a radio Interview to present the subject of growing grapes. Would you like to grow some grapes J- well, listen, my children and I will tell you aU about it. If you want to watt four or five years before picking grapes, go down to Joe's farm, or any grape farm; sometime between now and February and gather up some of the trimmings from his grapes, cut from the middle of 'the cane pieces long enough to have four buds, then plant, these, end down, so that two buds are under ground and two- above. Then Just wait for them to grow.

In late spring, the cuttings will be rooted at the two lower buds and will be sprouted at the two upper buds. Let 'em grow until the following di -them up, cut on au roots xrom tne upper or ine underground4udsv. trim, roots; on ower bud-to abovft 8 in. in length. cut all but one cane back to main trunk, cut that one back to leave only two buds and set the plant its perm anent After the second year, trim back to two buds on a single cane, after third year bring one eane up to the" wire X3 ft-- above ground)' after fourth year, bring cane up to top wire (5 ft.

Vaughn, deputy district director for Buffalo and Western New York announced today. The new procedure will conform more closely to customary accounting practices the automotive and farm equipment service trades, he, said.

"Essentially, the action adopts as a basis for ceiling price adjustment fox some automotive and farm equipment 'dealers a yardstick for measuring the earnings position of the services part of the operation by the ratio of labor cost to customers labor sales," Mr. Vaughn -explained. The action covers such usual customer services as body repair, painting and lubrication of ears, trucks, and tractors. It also covers factory services, thos performed' in. connection with a manufacturer's warranty of his product, In, a manner consistent with industry practice.

"In general, a dealer is eligible for an increase under the new action if his gross dollar prof it. for service sales has declined because of increase in his labor cost this Increase disproportionate to his increased income from service sales," Mr. -Vaughn said. down to the bottom wire, leaving 30 to 50 buds 'depending on the vigor of the plant.
