Tomorrow being Thanksgiving day,
there will be no regular issue of the
Daily Times. Should any important
telegraphic news be received it will
be bulletined, in order that our resi
dents may keep fully informed of the
news doings of the world.
LET US BE THANKFUL
Gratitude is a virtue too often in
adequately expressed. However, it
does not follow that we are wholly or
even seriously deficient in apprecia
tion because of failure to be continu
ally openly acknowledging indebted
ness for a multitude of blessings. An
individual too quick or too profuse in
expressions of thanks runs the risk
of being regarded with a bit of sus
picion.
In its inner tabernacle the humble
soul may daily sing praises for a con
tinuance of blessings and by a pre
dominance of such thoughts develop
a beauty and richness which will thrill
and inspire when occasion demands
that it should be heard. The nobility
of our thoughts and not the multitude
of our words determine our character.
Thanksgiving is more a matter of at
titude than of speaking. It is spir
itual.
This does not mean that we should
be dumb in the presence of an abun
dance of good things showered upon
us by Providence and by friends. Out
ui i lie: a uuimam.c ui a ai« iui ucai i
the mouth should speak. A virtue
well developed can not be stifled—
true character speaks through every
act when words are scant.
Thanksgiving should be a daily de
votion, unmarred by mockery or in
sincerity, Such devotion was more
predominant among our pious New
England forebears than with us to
day. Comparatively scant as were
their blessings and grievous as were
their privations, they sincerely pro
fessed to find much occasion for daily
thanksgiving. Kven with these de
votions a day of special thanksgiving
and praise was deemed meet. And
thus was born the beautiful custom of
our annual Thanksgiving.

DEBTS OF HUERTA AND
CARVAJAL REPUDIATED
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 25 (by Associ
ated Press').'—The Mexican, governs
ment does not recognize debts con
tracted by the Victoriano Huerta and
Francisco Carvajal regimes, and will
not pay any claims based upon dam
ages suffered during the period these
two men were president, according to
a statement issued by Luis Cabrera,
secretary of the treasury. This was
evoked by an assertion, credited to
Senator Fall of the United States sen
ate committee investigating Mexican
affairs, that the present government
has such financial responsibilities.
Secretary Cabrero declared the
presidencies of Huerta and Carvajal
were anti-democratic and unconstitu
tional, and imposed'tlo obligations on
the present government.
