What do all of us have to be thankful for this
Thanksgiving ?
Well, this year like all other years, we do have
many thing s to be thankful for. The other day we
ran across an article that is worth a million bucks
worth of satisfaction and consolation, and, we would
like to quote verbatim from this article. We be-
lieve it is thinking that we can all use to some de.
gree. It goes like this: ."If we feel that we are in
bad, circumstances, if*'we gave away eveyhln that
we now have, and then wanted it baok again, we
would then know how well off we'Weee. '
Pretty good ]oe in that ones isn't there? We
think so. This Thanksgiving, suppose we all sit down
to the table with this thought in mind, and, we are
quite sure that deep down in our hearts we will appre-
eiaee all that we have and hold. If we do this, it will
be a happier Thanksgiving, the turkey will taste bet-
ter, and if we don't eat too much, we should end the
day with a rather "moot" feeling of contentment.
May this Thanksgiving Day be a happy one for
you.

THE FIRST raih'oad car of
room-size trees departed t le
Shelton depot last Tuesday, and
the O. R. Kirk Company's ]oel
unit have kept the cars rolling
out ever since. The J. Hofert Com-
pany of Seattle and the Thomas-
Harris Company of Shelton have
slated shipments this week.
Starting the, annual Christmas
tree program in the last week of
October, thousands of fresh, spicy
evergreens were ctlt and brought
to the yarding centers of, the tree
companies. Worlxf. .te:raen
and women have been sorting,
tagging and tying the trees into
bundles ready for shipping.
REPRESENTING a large in-
dustry during the weeks leading
to Christmas, the tree effort pro-
vldes big' payrolls for families to
use during the holiday season.
The G. R. Kirk Company alone
hay a payroll of about $2,000 a
day, according to M. F. Simpson,
manager of the company's Shel-
ton branch. Burt Medford of the
J. Hofert Company wouldn't esti-
mate his company's average pay-
roll but said it was "pretty bi.;."

speeumg tip LIe effort, the G. R.
Kirk Company has a mecimnical
tree tier that wraps up eight to
nine bundles of trees a minute,
The trees are grouped for bun-
dling on a long belt that carries
them into a tent where they are
bundled, tied and trimmed. The
mechanical tier scoots the bundles
on another conveyor that deposits
them on a truck ready to depart
for the Shelton xilroad depot.
HEADQUARTERS of the O. R.

the J. Hofert Company Is located
on Moore Hill. The Thomas-Har-

sembly yards at various points in
Mason, Kitsap and Thurston coun-
