From the beginning, with but few
exceptions, Thanksgiving have been
kept in the late autumn, owing to the
harvest time, of course, and more fire.
quently toward the end of November.
No one knows how the custom OF
appointing Thursday originated. but
some light is doubtless thrown on the
subject by a controversy over a pro-
posal to change the day OF the week,
about 1890, when the dissenters ar
gued that Thursday was preferable,
because Of the Thursday lectures, or
midweek religious services, that took
place every week in communities or
considerable size, a joint observance
OF the two days rendering it unneces-
sary, of course, for many to sacrifice
days labor, especially for Thanks
giving.
Although the pilgrims were the first
to observe Thanksgiving on this con-
tinent, the Salem colonists, on their
voyage over here in 1929, observed
Thanksgiving on shipboard. In which
everybody, passengers, captain ana
crew, took part, as an acknowledge
ment of a favorable breeze that had
followed a preceding day Of fasting
and prayer.
