Consider These Things Soberly As We Utter Up Our Thanksgiving One hundred and twenty Pilgrims started from Southampton on Aug. 5, 1620, in two small vessels, hoping to cross the Atlantic for the purpose of establishing homes in a new world. The Speedway proved unworthy and its voyage was delayed. But the Mayflower sailed alone with 102 passengers, leaving Plymouth, England, on Sept. 6, 1920, debarking them Dec. 21 of that year at a point on Cape Cod Bay, now known as Plymouth, Massachusetts, December 2, 1871 Session of the common council Consider These Things Soberly As We Utter Up Our Thanksgiving One hundred and twenty Pilgrims started from Southampton on Aug. 5, 1620, in two small vessels, hoping to cross the Atlantic for the purpose of establishing homes in a new world. The Speedway proved unworthy and its voyage was delayed. But the Mayflower sailed alone with 102 passengers, leaving Plymouth, England, on Sept. 6, 1920, debarking them Dec. 21 of that year at a point on Cape Cod Bay, now known as Plymouth, Massachusetts, today celebrated as a historical shrine. Before the voyage was concluded and while yet afloat, on Nov. 21, 1620, a group of 41 passengers who had decided to settle and stay regardless of conditions encountered, composed and signed in immortal document known to historians in both hemispheres as the "Mayflower Compact." Other colonies had been created as dependencies of European despots, but this was the first settlement whose inhabitants regarded themselves as Americans, who organized a colonial government and who proclaimed equality of all under the law—156 years before their descendants and other colonials issued the Declaration of Independence, and 169 years before adoption of the Federal Constitution as the foundation upon which the United States still functions. After the gathering of the first badly-needed harvest in 1621, the Pilgrims gathered in a service of Thanksgiving for the bounties youchsafed them, and it is in both commemoration of these Mayflower fathers and thankfulness for that provided for us in the past year that we now observe Thanksgiving Day, 1959, confirming within our own consciousness the admonition of the Psalmist to "Forget not. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits." What with space travel and Red missiles shadowing our national existence there has been no time in this Republic's history when "vision and strength and purpose" are more needed if our nation and our people are to endure. If with these attributes we face a Godless atheism we will of a certainty make the free world safe and even increase its freedom. In that, however, there must be the same element of thanksgiving for our blessings as that inherent in our Pilgrim fathers more than 300 years ago. William Wordsworth wrote that though "theologians may puzzle their heads about dogmas as they will, the religion of gratitude cannot mislead us." During the Korean War an American boy said that when he reached home his first act would be to go to the refrigerator to get a glass or cold water.

A valuable colt, Grand Turbo stock, two and one half years old belonging to Harry Polhem was shot on Thursday evening last by some unknown party and is likely to die. Even if farmers deem it necessary to show worthless and unmanageable w horses which eat up their sustance and have no responsible owners, there can be no excite for killing a gentle horse belong ing to a neighbor, when reparations could easily be had for a damage the animal had done.

We take for granted newspapers, antibiotics and the tinkling clime of a Good humor man on a sunit afternoon. We cheerfully assume that some decent men will get voted into office. We take for granted that our own savings are inviolate, that we will not be shot for expressing our opinions as occurs in Communist Russia, that we will not be imprisoned without just cause or have our everything confiscated—that our children will grow up amid freedom and not in Siberian slave labor camps—and we should remember, for it is good that we do so—what our simple right to vote has cost many other human beings—a million Americans lay in the residue of their blood on foreign soils so that the American Way persists. Each American should have had a vista of not only the present but the future America, one in which freedom and thankfulness for it, would continue, satellites or missiles or atheism notwithstanding. In all humbleness then, let us offer up our thanks—each of us—for the blessings we enjoy, and pray earnestly and sincerely and continuously these days that all Americans may walk in the paths of our people and that these may be the paths of God's justice to all. Joaquin Miller wrote: "We of the open and immense seas, the exalted mountains, this splendor and color, need not walk the gutters and look down. Room and a sense of glory, beauty, majesty, eternal strength, are forever above, about us." These are the ponderable of a free people, a free America in which the dignity and the rights of the individual, and no totalitarianism are paramount. The imperative, imponderables are our ability to protect and perpetuate these ponderables. Can we do it? Consider these things carefully and thoughtfully as we utter up our thanks at Thanksgiving." With Grateful Hearts Assemblyman Porter to Speak At Water Confab A key figure in the movement to bring Feather River water from Northern California to Southern California, State Assemblyman Carley V. Porter, will be among the featured speakers at the Orange County Water Symposium in Disneyland Hotel on Wednesday, Dec. 2. Assemblyman Porter, in a talk on "Feather River Water," will describe the proposed $1,750,000 project and its importance, vitally so, to the water-starved Southland. Porter, assemblyman from the 69th District, and member of the Assembly Committee on Water, is co-author of the Burns-Porter bill which the State Legislature has approved for a statewide vote at the next general election. The symposium, jointly sponsored by the Orange County Water Works Group and the Assemblies God, to Thee, Author of liberty, To Thee we sing; may our land be bright with freedom's holy light.

Waldo Brown and his sister, Miss Lottie Brown are spending a week waiting their parents. CARLEY V. PORTER associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange County, will present experts on all phases of the county water situation and outline possible solutions to problems which now threaten the area's future, according to Gus Lenae Anaheim 'Water Department' perintendent and member of the OCWWG.

Mr. Alfred Metcalf and family have arrived and are now living at the Coyote house. The first white frost of the season appeared on Tuesday morning. December 3, 1896 On Saturday the Republican hosts of Orange county wended their way down into the independent municipality of San Juan Capistrano for the purpose of presenting Don Marco Forster a silken flag emblematic of the county. At the recent election San Juan cast 83 votes for McKifley and 21 for Bryan—four to one—and is thus entitled to the honor of being classed as the banner Republican precinct of the county. About 200 people joined the excursion to attend the barbecue. Intimations have been out that Don Marco had sent out vaqueros for days looking for the fattest beef in his vast herds to prepare for the barbecue. Arriving at San Juan the visitors, headed by a fiife and drum corps marched to the home of Alcalde Egan, where Judge presented the banner to Don Marco, who thanked those present for the flag and bade them welcome to his home. The guests were soon seated at long tables under the trees where they were waited upon by many white aproned mu-nachos. The menu consisted of tortillas, tamales, cabezatatem, tripes de leche, barbecued beef, frijoles and other tempting viands. The day was one long to be remembered.
