Governor Norris Joins President Taft in Designating November 30th Thanksgiving Day New Regulations foe Restaurants Proprietors of restaurants and eating houses are in receipt of a notice from . Dr. Tuttle, secretary of the state board of health, advising them that they must secure state license in order to operate. All restourants must have a license prior to January 1, 1912. There is no charge made by the state for a license. Under the new pure food law, all restaurants and public kitchens will be inspeced at intervals and a system of grading will be adopted. When the place is graded at \70 recommenda- tion will be made by the inspector and when a grade of \60\ is reached the place must be closed until conditions are remedied and the 'license restored. Other provisions call for proper pre- cautions against flies, accumulation of dirt, and cleanliness in general. A fea- ture of the ruling is one providing for the cementing of all kitchens. This does not meet with the approval of the restaurant men.

It is as follows: \Abundantly blessed in every ma- terial sense during the past months, the people of montana are particularly fit- ted to enter into the true spirit of the approaching Thanksgiving sea- son. The desolating hand of famine or pestilence has not been laid upon them, nor has any great catastrophe taken grim toll of their numbers. An all -wise providence has dealt benefi- ciently with al's people. Bountiful crops have rewarded the labors of the husbandman, in all the avenues of trade, there have been plentiful evi- dences of expansion, all contributing to make Nlontana citizenery prosperous, contented anti happy. \But it is profitable to reflect that prosperity is not all man made, and, reflecting thus, it is meet that we should set apart a day upon which to make more fitting acknowledgment of the blessings that have been bestowed upon us by Almighty God. \In order that this in:o be done, Edwin L.
