The Hebrews Observed IL First-His-
tory of the American Day.

OF course, the idea of a Thanksgiving
Day. is not original with the PHI rim
Fathers 1t is as old as MANKIND. The
Hebrews observed it, first, as the festi-
val OF first fruits, and then as the feast
Of tabernacles. The Greeks had ii.
and so did the Romans. IN later times
it was a day set apart in TIE countries
of Europe. Long before the Pilgrim
Fathers left Holland 1t was n day wei
known both in Holland and in Eng
land. In 'Hudigras" it is spoken OF
as Il day quite well understood.
For Hudibras .who thought he'd won
The field as certain as a gun.
And having routed the whole troop,
With victory cOck- a-hoop;
Thinking he'd doue enough TO purchase
Thanksgiving Day among the churches
But, however ancient the origin OF
the day. our particular observance
dates from the Pilgrim Fathers. As n
matter of history, they only appointed
a Thanksgiving Day when they had
something to be thankful for, and in
their bad or unfruitful years did not
observe the day. and it did not become
an annual custom in New England un-
I'll about the year iGS9 1t took 10
wears and years longer TO extend to
the other states, though there are in
stances of such a day being set apart
in New York prior to the Revolution.
During the Revolutionary war the
Continental congress appointed a day
OF Thanksgiving every year, until the
war ended, the last being in 1874. and
was a day Of great rejoicing for the
peace. In 1889 President Washington,
at the suggestion of congress, appoint
ed Nov. 2S as a day of national thanks
giving for the successful Inauguration
of the new government. This was the
first of the presidential Thanksgiyings.
Again. i'm 1895. Washington issued "A
second Thanksgiving proclamation. on
account of the suppression of the whis-
ky insurrection. The next presidential
recommendation OF Thanksgiving was
by President Madison. in April. 1915.
on account of peace with England.
After this. until Lincoln's time. there
were no presidential calls for the OBJ
servance of the day. Since 1863 tho
last Thursday in November has been
appointed as the day of national
Thanksgiving. Before 1868 the gov,
errors of many OF the states appointed
the day. though ii vas many years be-
fore the custom extended beyond New
England and the Middle States. AZ
as 1853 only eight of the governors
of the Southern States issued Thanks.

A Beautiful Custom.

Our beautiful national custom Of set
ting apart a day of Thanksgiving an
nually must never be suffered to fall
into desuctude. The home day, when
the clans gather and rally. aud bearded
men. having travelled for days, arrive
breathless and eager ut the old thresh-
old to keep Thanksgiving among kith
and kin. when troops of grandchildren
surround the old table. and when all
the land is thrilled and moved because
of the great feast-this day is so pecu-
liarly our very own that we must al
ways hold IL dear. Its religious and its
social character should continue to be
interchangeable. and the conservation
to God should but make the separate
uess Of its home joys the more pre-
cious.
Thankful in spirit. yes. we may be
this, though we have our private and
personal griefs, our hours of lonliness.
Then. TO comfort meon else may be
our best consolation. 20 uplift some
touchdown soul. our own signal Cor
exaltation.-Mrs, II. e. Sangster.
