variety of waterfowl, shore birds. and
upland game birds. In game resources
Alaska compares favorably with the
western part of the United States in
early days. and at the present time
it is one of the most important game
regions in the world.
Without entering into the general
subject of the value of game to all
countries possessing it, Alaska's game
may be considered chiefly with refer
ence to the features making it espe
cially valuable.
Alaska is of particular Importance
as a game region because. of all
American possessions. ii is the one in
which frontier conditions promise to
last longest. Notwithstanding its
wealth of mineral and other resources
the territory is not likely to be thick.
~ populated, at least not for decades
to come. 1t is true railroads already
are beginning to penetrate its wiids
and no doubt cities of considerable
size will develop. but, even SO, i'm.
mense tracts far from populous CEN
tiers will long remain in almost prime
val condition. This is apparent from
the great size of the territory and its
climatic and photographic conditions.
Its area is almost one-fifth that of the
entire United States, and although
much of this is economically full of
promise it must not be forgotten that
nearly one-fourth lies beyond the
arctic circle and that a large proper
ton of the remainder consists Of high
mountains and inhospitable wilds. In
the states irrigation is retaining
many arid tracts and drainage is max
ing it possible to utilize swamps and
waste areas which now furnish re-
fuges for game.
From all parts of the country come
reports of An increasing scarcity of
game animals. Hence our remaining
natural game preserves in Alaska are

Thanksgiving does not depend on a
special day; any and all times are sea-
sonable.
Thanksgiving makes a crust sweet:
the want Of it, a turkey bitter.
Thanksgiving begets more fayors flo,
which to be thankful.
For life and love and health and p.If
For just the chance to be myself:
For books and food and clothes to wear
For woman's power to do and dare:
For sun and moon, for land and sea,
For what now is and what's to be.
For everything that comes my way.
I'm thankful on Thanksgiving Day.

lonely. The power to hear what
natures voices have to say is in our
hearts, not merely in the ear. We
must have the beauty in our souls be-
fore we can see beauty anywhere.
Hence there are many who are really
blind to the loneliness which God has
strewn everywhere, with most lavish
hand, in his works. So we must have
the music in our heart before we can
hear the music which sings every.
where for him who has ears to hear.
If we have thanksgiving within us, we
will have no trouble in finding glad
ness wherever we 60. 1t Is sad and
cherries heart that makes the world
seem dreary to certain people; II only
they will let Joy enter to dwell within,
a new world would be created for
them. II we allow our heart to cher
ish unlovingness, bitterness, evil
thoughts or feelings, we cannot hear
the music of love which breathes
everywhere. pouring out from the
heart of God. But if we keep our
heart gentle, patient, lowly, and kind.
on our ears will fall, wherever we go,
sweet strains of divine music.
Then a glad life makes a life of
gladness wherever it goes. 1t leaves
an unbroken lane of sunbeams behind
it. Everybody is better as well as hap
pier for meeting one whose Christian
life radiates gladness and cheer. We
can do nothing better either for our
selves or for the world in which we
live than to learn the lesson of praise
and of thanksgiving. Let us learn to
sing unto the Lord with thanksgiv-
ing" There are troubles in every
life, but there are q thousand good
things for one trial. Sometimes we
have disappointments but even these
are really Gods appointments, as
some day we shall find out. If people
are unkind to us, We must go on low
ing just as before, our hearts full of
unconquerable kindness, and it will
finally win. The most deep-seated ten
dency to sadness can be overcome and
replaced by happy cheerfulness. The
gospel of Christ comes to us and tells
us that we must be born again, born
from above, born of God. and our very
nature will be recreated. Then di.
vine grace assures us that it is not
impossible even for the most unholy
life to be transformed into holiness.
The being that is saturated with sin
may be winter than snow. There is no
nature, therefore, however unhappy
it may be because of its original quail
ity or it's early training, which cannot
through divine help learn the lesson
Of happiness and thanksgiving. The
secret of Christian joy is the peace of
Christ in the heart. Then one is not
dependent upon circumstances or con-
ditiOns. st. Paul said he had learned
in whatsoever state he was therein to
be content. We know wei that his
circumstances were not always con-
genial nor easy, but he sang songs in
his prison with as cheerful a heart as
when he was enjoying the hospitality
Of a loving friend. There might be
hardships, sufferings. and want; but
in himself he had the peace of Christ;
and this sustained him. st. Pauls
secret of contentment is the Chris
ttan's true secret of happy life. a

ly neglected than this. There are
many people who are always coming
to God with requests but who do not
come to him with thanksgiving after
their requests have been granted. Ten
lepers once cried to Jesus for cleans
ing, as he was passing them at a dis
lance. He graciously heard them and
granted their plea. When they had
been healed, one of the ten returned
to thank the healer, but the other nine
came not again with any word of rec
ignition of the great favor they had
received. So it is continually
are blessed and helped, but few show
gratitude. Our Lord felt keenly the
ingratitude of the lepers who re-
turned not. Where are the nine?" was
his panied question. God pours out
his gifts and blessings every day upon
his children; and whenever no voice
of thanksgiving is heard in return he
misses it. II one bird of the forest
is silent in the glad spring day. he
misses its song. If one human heart
fails to utter its praise amid life's
countless blessings, he is disap-
pointed.
Many there are who think that If
certain definite days are set apart for
praise it is enough. For example,
they will be grateful for a whole day
once in a year, touching then every
chord Of praise in their being, think
ing that this is the way God wants
them to show their gratitude. But the
annual Thanksgiving day is not in
tended to gather into itself the thanks
giving for a whole year; rather it is
intended to give the keynote for all
the years life. LIES true concert
pitch is praise. II we find that we
are below the right pitch, we should
take advantage of the particular
thanksgiving seasons to get keyed
up. When the strings of life begin to
grow discordant thanksgiving will put
US in tune.
The ideal life is one of gladness.
Unthankfulness and fretfulness are
discords in the song. We have no
right to live gloomily or sadly. Go
where We may, we hear the music of
Joy, unless our ears have become tone
deaf. The world is full of beauty and
full of music. Yet it is strange how
many people seem neither to see the
loneliness nor hear the music 1t
were well If many of us would train
ourselves to see the glory and good
ness of God, as revealed in nature. 1t
will be sad to leave this world, after
staying in it three-score or four-score
years without having seen any of the
ten thousand beauties with which God
had adorned it. Consider the lilies"

message of joy to him who can read
