THANKSGIVING... 1953 Thursday, November 26. has been proclaimed Thanksgiving Day by the President. This year we have much to be thankful for, and in our prayers we must not forget the need for men and women everywhere to strive for a better world. The Korean truce that has at least temporarily halted the bloodshed of a war waged between freedom-loving nations and Communist-dominated peoples gives promise for an enduring peace. Our men and our women have been freed for the time being from the struggles of a horrible war, and many battle-wearv service men already are home. For this we give thanks! Our leaders, ever wary about the possibility of another outbreak of fighting in Korea or in some other remote spot on the globe, caution us not to relax our efforts to safeguard our country and the liberty and other glorious privileges of this great land of ours. We are thankful for the present peace, but we must continue our efforts to keep the peace, and this can be done only if our country is strong and secure. Our contribution to this noble cause must be willingly made and in a spirit of true thankfulness. Our prayers at Thanksgiving should include a firm desire to keep good our health, to work — regardless of position in life — earnestly and industriously to provide whatever contribution may be needed for assuring our better way of life. Let us this day give thanks to the Almighty for allowing us to be a free people who enjoy freedom of speech, freedom of worship and freedom from fear. Give thanks in our prayers for the bounties God has given to us. We have much at this harvest time because our way of life instills within each of us the desire and initiative to provide fruits for our labors, which enables us to enjoy our freedom. As free men we have been able to provide sufficient food, clothing and projter shelter, not only to ourselves but to others over all the world who have not been so fortunate as we have been. As we follow the tradition handed down by the Pilgrim fathers, let us be aware of our nation much blessed. Let us keep our land free and strong, made so only because we have unselfishly and willingly made whatever sacrifice was necessary to guarantee the strength and freedom of the United States of America. This Thanksgiving Day—1953—we give thanks to Almighty God for his many blessings on us. The way to get 'a bellyful of socialism is to live under it. England is a perfect example. The classic attitude of the British Labor Party is that the state should own all important entei-prise, and the Party went a long way in that direction before the voters threw it out of office. A short time ago the Party held its annual conference, with 3,000 delegates in attendance. Proposals to nationalize the land, arams plant, and the aircraft and machine tools industries were voted down. A typical comment came from a coal miner who said, “A boss is a boss, no matter whether he gets the job from the state or private owners. Sometimes the bosses of private industry are more reasonable to deal with.” The "British people are lucky, in that they can speak their minds and vote. The other victims of communism and socialism aren’t so fortunate. Nothing short of war or revolution can unseat their oppressors. “'Industrial News Review.” Verhovay Home Manager Wanted By Branch 129, Columbus, Ohio Branch 129, Columbus, Ohio, is seeking a manager for the Verhovay Home owned by the same branch and located in Columbus.

Branch 76 Holds Dance at Dalarda By Joann McLaughlin The long-awaited dance of Branch 76, in honor of the members of the Verhovay and their friends, was held at the Dalarda, 1144 North Fourth Street, on Sunday evening, November 8. It was a grand success, as was anticipated, and almost everyone present danced to the wonderful music played by John Toth and his Gypsy Orchestra. There were very few people seated when the orchestra started at 7:30 to play the polka, csárdás, waltz and tango. The savage was broug'ht out in those present by any csárdás that was played, as John Toth and his orchestra put into the music the flavor and rhythm that was needed. The orchestra was greeted with generous applause from the very beginning and did not decrease in volume when the last dance was played at 11:30 P. M. At the close of the evening, the orchestra leader gave a short speech thanking the people present for being such a wonderful audience, and expressed the hope of seeing them again in the near future. The fact that John Toth and his orchestra was so wonderfully received is shown by the demand of his return to the Dalarda sometime soon. A dance has been suggested for Easter time of 1954. with this same orchestra present, and the promise of their return has been given, along with a promise of having a good time extended to all who attend. The turnout was successful, in many ways better than was hoped for. It was clear on the faces of all those present that a good time was had by all. Refreshments, cakes, and home-cooked meals were served throughout the evening, and the atmosphere of “home”, for which the Dalarda is famous, once again proved true. Plans will start to progress shortly concerning the dance to be held at Easter time. The same orchestra will be present, and an even better time can be looked forward to.
