With our inordinate desire for mate

get the ethical and spiritual import OF
Thanksgiving. To call forth our graft

things. We must be able to display
An array OF brilliant tangible objects.
Moreover, we must have sumptuous
repasts, rich wines and heavy silver
to be in a position to offer up prayer.
fuI thanks to the Almighty Source

II seems we cannot be thankful for
a little good despite the dictum that

We cannot show our gratitude unless
It be for an "abundance"-hence
mans petitioning the Higher Powers
with prayers and sacrifices from the
time OF the patriarchs to our own
day-for more and ever more goods
Of the earth.
The harvest coming after the care
and toll of tilling the soil, the sowing
of seed and anxious watching of the
fields, has therefore been almost uni
versaIiy set apart as a time for spe-
cial thanks. or Thanksgiving. How
ever, 20 far as we know. no other ma
tion carries out this custom regular
