Give Thanks To-Day.

Tive Ina0KS 1O-Oay.
The people of the United States
will to-day take their holiday, and to
some it will be merely holiday,
while to others it will be day for
returning thanks for the blessings of
life.
The American people in their bless
ed abundance should give sincere
thanks to the Great Oliver OF all good
to-day. Peace, prosperity and plenty
abide with US.
Let US not only give thanks to-day,
but let them look on every side for
the children of sorrow to make them
join in thanks to GoD and humanity.
The poor are always with US, and
"into each life some rain must fall"
Those who have health and abund-
ance to be thankful for to-day must
fail in Their thanksgiving if they shall
not temper some brothers sorrow or
bring some ray of sunshine where
the shadows of sorrow reign.
Give thanks to-day, The GoD of
Nations has blessed US with health
and plenty. He has made our own
green land the home of the happiest
people of His footstool.
Looking over the length and
breadth of the land, we see much to
be thankful for. The people of this
country, numbering more than TO-
100000, have every reason to be con-
tented with their lot. Our form of
government is the most perfect ever
devised, and while the burdens of
government sit lightly upon US, we
enjoy to the fullest all the liberties
we can desire. In material welfare
our country is prosperous. The
children have achools open to them
churches with pastors, whose tender
ministrations are afectionately be-
slowed on all alike, dot the land; and
the best influences, sweetening life,
and carrying sunshine into every
home, pervade our entire country.
When we take more particular
view, we find that charity abounds,
and the refining sentiments of the
christian religion are deep-rooted in
the hearts and lives of the people.
The world we live in, here in Amer
lea, grows in virtue while expanding
in material wealth, and it gets better
and better as education is diffused
and as the Gospel is made the light
Of the homes. There is deeper
spirit OF humanity, larger love for
our kind, more practical charity of
the sort inculcated in the Sermon on
the Mount, and more perfect reali-
cation Of universal brotherhood and
of the truth that no man iveth unto
himself.
Indeed there has been progress
along the right lines. And it so
happens that this spirit does not
wear itself out by exercise, but grows
upon itself and is renewed with in
crease instead of diminishing by con-
tinual practice.
Let all give thanks, and let each one
see that the clouds of sadness are
lifted from some child of misfortune,
and thus doubly give thanks to Him
who taught that the merciful shall
know mercy. Give thanks to-day.
