AVher .Abraham Lincoln was a young man he ran for the legislature of Illinoit and was badly swamped. He next entered business, failed, and spent tho next 17 years of his life paying up the debts of a worthless partner He fell in loVc with a beautiful young woman, to whom he became engaged, then she died. Entering politics he ran for Congress and was badly de- feated. He then tried to get an ap- pointment to the United States Land Office but couldn't. He became a candidate for the V. S. senate and was badly defeated. In 1856 he be- came candidate for the vice presi- dency and was again defeated. Two years later he was defeated by Doug- las. But in the face of all this de- feat and discouragement, he event- ually achieved the highest success ob- tainable in life, an andying fame to the end of time. The courage ot Lincoln knowns no failure. PORTLAW Wish Latef Thanksgiving The Canadian Poultrymen's As- sociation have solemnly declared in favor of a later date for Thanksgiv- ing Day definitely fi.xed for the Sun- day (Monday?) nearest November 11. It is held by the hen men that when Thanksgiving is fixed for early fall thj poultry is not matured, and the appetite of the public is not suf- ficiently stimulated to be helpful tc this ever advancing industry. The request is reasonable, and a favor- able response from the powers that be, would, we feel assured, be gener- ally approved. Miss Eva Little is recovering from a very painful attack of quinsy.
