In looking over the past year and re-
counting some of the numberiess bless
ings given TO us as individuals and as a
nation and then combining the thought 10
the latter. we ought TO give special thanks
for the peace and quiet that char
acterized great national political con-
test and for the high character OF tho
men that as rule were elected TO public
Office.
For the great and ready response Of the
nations heart as Galveston and vicinity
lay helpless
For the peaceful termination OF the
great coal strike
For the enlarginr benehcence AS seen IN
the endowfng OF schools. colleges. hospi-
tails and asyiums: especially as the larger
gifts ARE now from the living rather than
from estates.
For the continuous blessing OF sep
arated church and state and the liberty
of conscience.
For the increasing power Of the Chris
tlan religion and the fuller meaning of
the word "home''

During the dark days OF the civil war
the people tasted and prayed on especially
appointed days, Gratitude for success nj
arms was acknowledged on similarly APP
pointed Thanksgiying days. In times OF
peace we have always been grateful for
the pienteous rewards that have followed
the labors OF the people. On this Thanks
giving day every American must feel thar
the day proclaimed has lost none OF its
primary significance; that the people by
demanding a continuance Of the nations
present political and commercial policies
have escaped disaster, have condemned
and obiterated all attempts and threats
OF national dishonor and reputation. and
have Insured to themselves lasting pros
perity. Il. III. GU1E.
