Successor to The Journal, The Caldwell Press, Tha Republican Journal and The Republican We Give Thanks Thanksgiving is a time for family gatherings—for heartfelt rejoicing in the blessings of home, family, peace Mid plenty. It's a time to be joyful—and a time to be quietly, prayer ful and grateful because the abundance and freedom our forefathers dreamed of are ours in reality. On this Thanksgiving, we join giving thanks and among our blessings, we count the opportunity of serving you during the past year. It Literally Stinks We think the all-Muskingum Valley football selection made last Wednesday evening stinks. As a matter of fact, we thought the same thing last year but didn't get around to saying so. Why a group of high school officials have to act like a bunch of politicians is more than we can see. The calibre of the team, the record they compile, the outstanding ability of an individual player, are never taken into consideration any more. The coaches and we mean those in the Zanesville area of the league, apparently get together before the annual meeting, trade around a little bit, and then come up with at least three or four players on the first squad. Although the Caldwell Redskins finished in second spot for the second consecutive year, it is also the second time that they failed to land but a single player on the team. As far as the league selections are concerned, we think Billy Jones should practice on being a better politician, instead of such a darn, good coach. Gets Shot In The Arm Yuletide decorating of the individual homes in Caldwell and community received a shot in the arm this week with the announcement that the R. C. Moore Lumber company, Inc., will give three cups and $25.00 in cash prizes to the top four winners. The first prize winner will receive a cup and $10.00 in cash the second, a cup and $5.00 the third, a cup and $5.00 and the fourth, $5.00 in cash. Sponsored by the Noble County Chamber of Commerce as a part of the Christmas activity, it is hoped that more home owners will participate in this contest by decorating their homes. Robert Moore said that the mill would cut out free any figurine which the home owner wanted to use in the holiday decoration. Moore pointed out that these prizes will be for individua homes only and a community project will not be eligible to participate in the final judging. The three judges will be appointed by the Noble county Chamber of Commerce and their final selections will be made on Friday evening, Dec. 24, in order that the prize winners might receive their money before Christmas. The cash prizes offered by Robert Moore are in addition to those given each year by the civic organization. This is a wonderful opportunity for the people of Cald well to participate in the home decoration contest during the Christmas season and we urge as many as possible to plan now to enter this keen competition. S-D Day, December 1, 1955 Safe-driving day plans in Noble county for Thursday Dec. 1, are rapidly shaping up with the various mayors in the communities issuing proclamations setting aside thi day for safe driving. Sheriff Donald Conaway and other law enforcing officials are cooperating in every way possible in order tha they might instill a consciousness in every Noble county driver that traffic safety is his responsibility—every day. No traffic accident deaths for 24 hours, in daylight or darkness, will be the goal Ohioans are challenged to mec on Thursday, Dec. 1, although Ohio ranks fourth in the nation in the count of traffic fatalities for the first nine months of 1955. Every organization in the county has pledged its suppoi to this safety day, which met with much success last year in Ohio and Noble county. But the very success of the campaign itself rests entirely on the individual when he gets behind the wheel of the automobile.

JOHN E. HENDERSON Delayed Justice Our Nation's Constitution pro vides a basic right that persons in all criminal prosecutions will be given a speedy and public trial. Thus, the framers of the Constitution recognized the prin ciple that justice delayed is often justice denied. Today, with an ever-growing backlog of cases pending in our Federal court system, that right is in jeopardy. Although the delays are serious in criminal cases, the congestion of civil suits in the courts is even more serious and threatens to become chronic unless appropri ate corrective measures are taken. A recent report by Deputy Attorney General to the Judicial Conference of the United States has focused attention on the evil consequences of increasing de lays. In civil actions, it has been reported that an average of approximately months is required to act on a case. How ever, in some districts, happily not in Ohio, the dockets are be hind as much as four years. Within recent weeks, the President and the Department of Justice have promised to re commend corrective measures to the Congress. A primary £oal is the appointment of additional Federal judges to assist in clear ing the dockets of cases now pending and to handle the in creasing amount of litigation in the Federal system. This solution is relatively simple and urgently needed. However, Congressional ap proval will not be obtained quickly if the political complex ion of our court system is al lowed to become the overriding issue.

Two Cleveland youths, recent ly released from the Army, are being held in Noble county jail on charges of breaking and en tering, theft of a War Bond and the unlawful stealing of an auto mobile. They were captured only after they had led the Cam bridge state highway patrolmen a merry chase in Byesville. Noble county has a new case of scarlet fever, according to Health Commissioner, Dr. N. S. Reed. Marilyn Carol Curtis, four year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Curtis of near East Union, has been placed under quarantine. William Gillespie, prominent business man in Caldwell, has been discharged from the Navy and will return in the near future to his home here. 5' Better Farming fWIMI A Quaker City youth was re cently pictured in the "Believe It Or Not" cartoon, kneeling be fore the grave of his father in a cemetery at St. Michiel, France, with the following caption: "Pvt Oliver Markle, Jr., Quaker City, Ohio, visited the grave of his father whom he never saw. The father was killed in World War I before his son was born. Both father and son were born in the same house married at the same age answered their country's call said farewell to young wives at the same place taken overseas bearing the same army rank and name, to fight the same enemy on the same spot." Final plans have been com picted by County Agent George L. Brown for fifteen young men and women from Noble county to exhibit and sell 17 Hereford calves in the annual 4-H show and sale to be held in Pittsburgh Pa., Monday, Tuesday and Wed nesday, Nov. 26, 27 and 28. The annual union Thanksgiv ing service will be held in the Free Methodist church on Cum berland street, Caldwell, Thurs day at 10:00 o'clock a. m. and will continue for one hour. Cattle will tolerate up to about 1.5 percent salt in their drinking water. The amount should be checked if the water tastes salty and the animals are not drinking sufficient water. THE AMERICAN WAY Better Equipment Better Wages Justification for the existence of American industry lies in the fact that it makes capital and management available to the American worker, thereby ena bling him to enlarge his contri bution to our national income and also, at the same time, to make earnings for himself. Let's use a very simple example by way of illustration. A man without tools is given an excavation job. Without equip ment he is almost helpless, and his accomplishment is small over the course of a day, the week or the year. His performance would be greatly enlarged if a hand shovel were made available to him. If, also, he were furnished with a wheelbarrow with which to carry dirt from one point to another, his achievement would be further increased. If someone were to loan him a steam-shovel and teach him to operate it, obviously his productive labor would be multiplied manifold. A E W ALL TH EE OO MEW IMS NINETY.DOHT Working without tools, this man's work would have a very low market value. Equipped with a steam-shovel, on the other hand, his income would be in creased many times. It is true, in the latter case, that the man would incur certain expenses. He would have to pay for instruction on how to run the machine, ren tal for the use of it and for the fuel to operate it. But he would have an enormously increased gross income out of which to meet these expenses, leaving him a much larger net income for his labor. This man would have very little expense for the rental of a hand-shovel, slightly increased expense if he rented a wheel barrow, and much greater ex pense if he rented a steam shovel. Is it not reasonable that the income to the man who rent ed him the steam-shovel should be much greater than to the man who rented him a hand-shovel? Is it not also true that the work er would be able to make a great er contribution to the national income if he uses a steam-shovel instead of a hand-shovel? Is it not a fact that the total income for all concerned would be greater if he uses a steam shovel? Wouldn't it naturally follow that the worker would greatly increase his own individ ual earnings, because he would be participating in the division of far larger income, of which his portion would be far greater than it would have been from his efforts with lesser equipment or no tools at all? This simple illustration of the man with the shovel exemplifies (Continueo on Page 2-B) Oh-h-h thod VISIT ID -IVIATIG **0t" jTfj- OLDSMOBI $ THI "tOCKIT ROOM"..

Jammed Door Dear Editor: Many of the little botherations of life could be easily avoided if people only use their heads for something other than a place to put a hat. Stopped in at Peter Updowns, the other evening for a little chat. After a while he went into the house to get a glass of cool buttermilk. The door was shut and he gave it a kick. When he came out he remarked that he had pulled on that door for seven years before he knew that if he gave it a kick it would come open easy. Just think of it tugging at a door for seven years before he discovered that a kick would open it at once. This set me to thinking. I said to him, "Peter, have you got a draw knife or a saw?" "Yep,' he muttered, "Got 'em out in the wood shed but they haint been used fer God knows when." I said to him, "Go out and get them and I will show you another trick." After while he came stumbling back with the rusty tools and wc took the door off the hinges and did a few moments work on it. Hung it back and it shut so easy that it would not disturb a sleeping baby. All he said was, "Well, I'll be darned." Just think of tugging at a jammed door for seven years. Kicking it open for two years when few moments work would have avoided all that wasted effort and poionous anger of trying to get the door open. There are a heap of jammed little problems that could be solved just as easily if we would only take the time to think just a tiny little mite. Yours for a little thinking Uncle Sam Stille P. S.
