How shall be thank Him? In praise

On Bonded knee at the altar. where
In crimson leaf and in sheaf of gold
The seed time and harvest tale is

At the laden table where tried and

Love and friendship their lows

Of our grateful spirit may be the

The willing service, the ungrudged

The peace of our homes blest an

The cheering signal of hope we lift
To souls on the sea of doubt adrift.
The songs We set on the lips of pain.
The sacrifice for another's gain.

that have been done and dole fight,
the things that are nontst ana OF good
report
Even when we are humbled to the
very ground by our latest sin, and feel
that thanksgiving is no proper mood
for us then-when it even shames US
to remember our blessings-to give
thanks even then for all the rest OF
our life that our Father has permitted
to stand firm and untouched would
make our confession and repentance
a truer thing. But it takes power to
put it in. We are not readily equal
to it. 1t is not the mark OF a shallow
optimism to be thankful. The shallow
optimist is not thankful, he is just
lazy and pleasant; it takes pro-
foundry exercised soul and diSciplin-
ed one to thank God in circumstances
where the ordinary soul sees no pos
sibility of thanks. We may have done
wrong but we shall see this wrong all
the more clearly and sanely, and re-
pent of it the more perfectly, by see
ing it against the unchanged back
ground of Gods righteous and kindly
dealings.
And then a steadily complaining
attitude introduces sort of falsenesS
into our whole situation. 1t was said
by one of the friends of very earn
est and noble worker that if he did
not stop his ceaseless complaining
about things he would soon cease to
have any influence. The man did not
realize that, in his sincere effort to
make things better by exposing all the
difficulties and hindrances, he was all
the time convincing people that
things were so hopeless that it was
not worth while to work at them.
If he had made his complaints with
thanksgiving he would have put heart
in people.
Now the truth is that the very cir
cumstances in which We feel that
complaint is the only valid attitude
may be the very circumstances in
which one might just as well give
thanks. 1t does not depend on circum-
stances, it depends upon us. Thanks
giving, like other great powers in us,
is not an occasional exuberance, but
is power to be gained by thoughtful
attention and practice. If hundred
more good things were added to us,
they, of themselves, could not make
US thankful unless we worked directly
for that spirit. Nothing that can hap
pen from the outside can ever change
this for us. Something must happen
from within. And, knowing in him.

the Psalmist took himself in hand
and said: Il will be glad and rejoice

Il will do anything else. Let any
one try this for six months, and make
it his discipline, and he will see a
difference in his whole life.

"BLACK NEATLY"

(The Tale of Turkey, by Itself.
l was born on farm. Not on a
roulet table nor on a battleship nor
on cake of ice, but on a farm
Turkeys have a habit of being on a
farm, and | was just like other tur-
keys.
When l first knew l was alive l
thought l wasn't. They had me in
a cramped, dark, rounded chamber
with smooth, white walls. | guessed
they were white. There was no
room to scratch. So l pushed
against all sides of it and broke out.
They say this was an egg. After |
was out l had no desire to go back
again. Some people feel this way
about jail.
At first existence was Joyous to
me. l ran round on my little blue
legs picking up worms and bread
crumbs and seeds and pieces of
gravel and experience. And at night
| huddled up with the other turklets
against the warm bosom of the steam
heat. Mother never chided us. She
was an incubator.
But as l began to get better &C
quainted with the world l learned
to know some of it's disadvantages.
Enemies were many = rats, owls,
wet weather, fussy chickens who
fight you for your food, and puppy
dogs. But as | grew l soon taught
the chickens their place, and ran
away from all the other things but
wet weather. We young turkeys
had only one friend, human being
The human being had copious
whiskers, indicating that he was to
be trusted. He always saw to it that
l had eats enough, and nursed me
through my first attack of pip.
brought one sorrow into his life
he worried greatly that the food
ate seemed to go mostly to bone and
feathers
Little happened except that I
grew. After while l grew faster
and fatter than many of my breth-
rem, which caused me to give them
the giggle. And l grew beautiful.
Because of my brilliant stove polish
feathers they called me BLACK
Meaty." The young human beings
used to pet me, at distance. Ar
irving at gobblerhood | had heavy
purple wattles on my head and a
wiry plume growing out of my
breast. Neighbors of the human be-
ing came to look at me. l suppose
he thought they wanted to steal me,
for he isolated me in a small COOP.
But | was given even more to eat
and waxed corpulent through lack
of exercise. But who wants to ex-
ercise when one can eat?
But, all, / began to see a light.
Other turkeys were treated like
was, and these, headless and de-
nuded of their glad plumage, passed
out of the barnyard by the wagon
load. Dead turkeys DO tell tales.
My faith in the whiskered human
being shattered. l decided that
starvation in the woods was prefer
able to such fate. l tried to flee.
Alas, when | tried to, one fatal
morning at dawn, the human being
headed me off with an AK.
Here is Thanksgiving day and my
finish. Bury me under your belt.
Let the clouds of stuffing fall DULY
on my corpse. See that my grave is
trimmed in cranberry jelly and add
a stalk of celery to mark the last
resting place of your unfortunate
friend BLACK Meaty."
