The Supreme Court hasn’t been an issue in the cam-
paign—those who thought the President would speak in
favor of measures limiting the tribunal’s powers were mis-
taken. Likewise, the Court has been on vacation and out of
the headlines. But when it convenes again it will pass on
a number of vital measures.
On the docket is the new Frazier-Lemke Farm Mort-
gage Moratorium law. The first law’ was declared uncon-
stitutional—the new law was designed to overcome legal
objections. Opinion is that it too will be thrown out.
Also on the docket is a case involving the right of the
PWA to lend money to a local government for the purpose
of building electric systems in competition With private sys-
tems.
Another power case involving the constitutionality of
TVA is based on different legal grounds than the case which
the Court decided last term in favor of TVA.
The National Labor Relations Act is also up for judg-
ment, along with the Commodity Exchange Act, the Rail-
road Retirement Act, and others.

Junior Class Meeting
The Junior class met Wednesday.
November 11. They discussed plans
for their social event. They decided
to go to the show after a ball game.
The date has not yet been selected.
The activities of the American Red Cross, for emer-
gency relief in great disasters, for care of the disabled
soldiers, for instruction of the people in the principles of
healthful living, are one of the greatest humanitarian forces
the world ever saw.
The human race is subject to sudden and unexpected
calamities. The scent of confusion that would exist after
great hurricanes, fires, floods, earthquakes, etc., if it were
not for the emergency work of such a society, would be
frightful to contemplate. People would be so bewildered,
they would be so lacking in equipment, they would so lack
experience, that the misery and loss of life could he far
greater than it now’ is.
The Red Cross steps into such situations with its or-
derly services, with its trained workers, who know’ just wha
to do under these distressing circums'ances. It provides
emergency supplies, and at once the chaotic situation is
handled systematically, and the distress of the sufferers
is reduced to a minimum, and many’ lives are saved.
An organization hat does such generous work ought
to be liberally maintained. The roll call for members this
year should show’ twice as many names as were secured in
1935.
Do your part by buying your membership here in
Nocona when the local ladies call on you.

Editorial
Students Invariably put too much
emphasis on the grades they make
and never stop to think what they
have learned. If they would try
to learn and forget the grades when
they get a report card, it would be
much better. Grades are not very
important, because when a person
has graduated the grades won’t do
him any good; it will be what he
learned that helps him get along.
So. if each student will study and
learn more, the grades will usually
take care of themselves.

Thursday, November 26, is the Day.
Thanksgiving is one of our highest and holiest duties.
The ideal life is one of thankfulness and gladness. In
studying the Scriptures we find more commands to praise
than to prayer. Few duties are more frequently neglected
than this. There are many people who always make re-
quests but seldom ever offer any signs of thanksgiving after
their requests have been granted.
We have no right to live gloomily or sadly. Go where
■we may, we hear the music of joy, unless our ears have
become tone-deaf. The world is full of music and joy if
■we will only try to find it.
Everybody is better as well as happier for meeting
one whose Christian life radiates gladness and cheer. We
can do nothing better for ourselves or for the world than
to learn the lesson of praise and Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day is not intended to gather into itself
the thanksgiving for a whole year, but to give the keynote
for all the year’s life. Life’s true concert pitch is praise.
Let us at this glad season -of the year utter our praise
and thanksgiving.
