It is fitting therefore, that we now proclaim our thanks. Each and all of us have much to be thank- ful for. Our crops have been bountiful and the gaunt spectre of war has passed us by leaving us whole in body and happy in possession of our many liberties. The suffering of . others should make us reflect and cause our thankfulness to be more heartfelt. We personally have every rea- son to be thankful. Our volume of business has been greater than ever. We thank each and every customer for the patronage they have given us. We thank our employees for the services they have rendered and their constant efforts to unite with us in giviug to our customers the service which they are eneeeel too. When the turkey is laid upon our festive board we will give a toast to our patrons far and near and trust that they too will greet us us in thought and hold us in some measure as a contributing cause to the thanks they may choose to offer.
