CANADIAN VALLEY
The snow which fell Sunday re-
minded us that the heat of the sum-
mer of 1918 has forever pi ssed, and
winter has come to remain with us
for a period of time. There always
is quite a change in the atmosphere
between summer and winter—and we
notice quite ac hange in the people
as well, as there is more spirit and
more zest in living generally in the
cold weather than in summer. Thus
everything, we suppose, works to-
gether for good.
Donald, oldest son of and Mrs.
Clarence Rogers, who has been away
on a visit to Iowa for the past sev-
eral weeks with his grandmother.
Mrs. Spencer, and aunt, ,Ethel Spen-
cer, returned the latter part of last
week. We presume his parents were
fully as glad to see him return to
his parental home as he was to get
back home. He is about four years
old and this is his first experience
away from home.
P. P. Krehbiel has recently grad-
ed the mile of road running east
and west on the north side of his
and Mrs. J. S. Krehbiel’s place. He
also made a new lane out to the
road straight north of his barn. Mr.
Krehbiel did an up to date Job. and
otYered his aid to G. A. Lehman to
grade the mile running west to the j
ktate road as soon as Mr. Lehman
finds time for the work. When the
two miles are completed there will
he good roads to Geary either way
around those two sections.
Mr. and Mrs. William Stahlheber
and son, Howard, from Halstead.
Kan., accompanied by Mrs. Rosa
Hemker of Geary, who is a sister ,
to Mr. Stahlheber. made Canadian
Valley friends pleasant calls Friday
of last week. Mr. Stahlheber is a
thresher man In Kansas and says he
had a big run this fall.
H. H. Smith, from Enid, was here
helping his son sow wheat week be-
fore last. Charlie Coil and G. A.
Lehman also helped Elie during
plowing, as he had been down for
several weeks with the flu
At this writing we know of no one
'ailing with the flu. Everyone is
rejoicing that the disease has van-
ished from this neighborhood. The
war is over and many of the boys
will soon he home from training
camp to enjoy “Home Sweet Home.”
Of course the parents as well as the
brothers and sisters will truly, wel-
come them home.
Bing Neely and family were visit-
ors at the Clarence Rogers home last
Sunday.
jH. H. Smith left for his home in
JEnld Monday.
Les Greer finished husking corn
last Saturday. He has second bot-
tom corn land joining the North Riv-
er.
Milo Amstutz, who has been at-
tending the Radio school at Norman
was home over Sunday. Milo is
looking well and thinks the camp
hoys may be released before lohg.
Mrs. G. W. Seiver, from Mounds.
Okla., arrived here the fore part of
last week and surprised her many
friends in Canadian Valiev hv making
them calls. Mrs. Sevier also vis-
ited with her daughter. . Margaret,
who Is attending school at Nor-
man a week ago last Saturday.
Mr. C. J. Stout, who lives across
the road from the Paden Brothers
ranch, s making arrangements to
build a new dwelling on his place.
P. P. Krehbiel and tw’o sons. Abe
and Erick, did some work for Wal-
ter Lehman last week and also re-
paired a well pump for Mrs. Robert
Lehman,
Walter Lehman has been sick with
the flu the' past few weeks.

THANKSGIVING OK IMS.
I Thanksgiving day is near at hand
May peace now hover every land
Bari iife espoused by birth anew
. Each soul inspired by heav’nly dew
The wrongs impressed may wo forget
And with new zeal be thankful yet.
The present year now soon will close
Her page's filled with bloody prose
I Another epoch now Is filled
Tho’ many voices have been stilled
[ Yet many who were sent away
Will spend at home Thanksgiving
day.
i oh yes! some never will return
The rising generations learn
When those dear names on hist’ry s
page
Will prove the cause from age
to age
When tears of war will be no more
They’ll be more thankful than
, before.
'The widow with the orphan babe
Bears wounds yet fresh and deep
inlaid
Perhaps the darling in her arm
. The image holds of her first charm
Her lover's face she there can see
For so much she can thankful be
| We mien with pain the blind, the
maimed
Regard for them cannot be named
I Can we extend som^ act, some deed
Which may assist their dally need
I That year by year we all may say
Each day be a Thanksgiving day.

Another touch of winter this week
Rogers Says—
Somewhere in France.
Dear Mother:
I have not heard from you for
some time, but I guess your letters
hare been delayed somewhere and
I know such as that can't be helped.
I am gettng along fine and am hav-
ing a good time under the circum-
stances. We have been moving
'around a freat deal. Sure am see-
ing the most of Frnce—and .can't
say much for It at that, for they are
so far behind the times that It makes
one sorry for them—ha, ha.
It has been raining for over a
week—-which makes It a little disa-
greeable—but we have the cnaola-
tion of having the Kaiser on the run
and I hope we can keep him running.
I am almost sure we can.
I have heard from, Ida, Ed and
Mike since I have been over, but
1 havn't written many letters for
there Isn’t much that we can write
In our letters so I don’t write often.
That 1b why my letters are so few,
but 1 write as often as 1 can get
up the courage
I was on a pass the other day
and had a few hours in Paris; didn’t
get to see much, but It Is Just a
large city. Of course It Is just like
the rest of France—rather ancient.
Well, 1 suppose Geary is Just about
the same old town as ever—nothing
new going on—only I suppose the
boys are scarce. Well I hope It will
all be over before the most of them
get over here. While I wouldn’t
take anything for the experience I
have had since 1 left home.
The U. S. boys sure have what It
takes to put the Huns on the run
and they are not afraid to use It—as
1 guess you see a-plenty In the pa-
pers. Well, 1 ‘an't think of any
more to write; with love, wour son,
J ERR1E.
Use Magnolia gasoline—Brewer.
We have been asked a great many times how it is possible for
us to sell so many things at lower prices than many other druggists do.
and often give better qualify for as little or less money than they ask.
It is very easily understood, once you know the facts. When we were so
fortunate as to be selected by the more than 7,500 leading druggists, who
comprise the United Drug Company, manufactureres of the—
“ R E X A L L_ R E M E D I E S’’
as the one in this community whom they believed best fitted to become one
of them and represent them here, we thereby immediately became able
to bug with them.
Can you not understand how by this buying together in tremen-
dous quantities—in tens of millions of dollars worth every year-we
are able to get the best in the world’s best markets. and at costs invaria-
bly lower than can be obtained by other less fortunate druggists who
have to buy alone and in small quantities, and usually through a mid-
dleman at that?
And because we can buy better goods for less money, we can and
do pass our advantage along to you also, because it gives us satisfaction
to do so, and because it is a good business policy.
That’s the whole story in a nutshell. It ought to be profitable
reading for you. It will be if you take the lesson to heart and trade at—
