Thanksgiving day awakens within
US feeling Of gIadness, as we con
template the unnUmbered blessings
which have crowned the year, com
ing to us from the benificent hand
Of God and the lives OF our fellow
beings. l. is not from the profits
Of business or the harvests of the
year, that we count our richest bless
ings, but from the bounty Of God,
the dispensations of his providence,
and the enlarged fields of useful
ness which have opened to us.
For these we ought to be thankful.
We have been enriched by the influ-
ence of strong and noble men and
women, whose lives of self-denial
have inspired to nobler ambitions
and for these We ought to be thank
full. The abundant harvests, the
splendid commercial life of the Ia
ton, the quiet and peace which re N
within, the strong protest which is
going up against giant wrongs in our
midst, the increased intelligence Of
the people, the splendid educational
system of the nation these, all these
call for thanksgiving. The progress
which the Christian religion is MAX
ing throughout the world, the pulling
down of the strongholds of sin, the
closer fellowship of the various church
organizations, all call for thanksgiv-
ing. The blessings of home, the
safety Of the family circle, the sweet
and blessed relationship of parents
and children, call for Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day is more of
holy day than a holiday, yet the two
may be combined into one, bringing
praise and honor to God, and hap
piness to man. In such a spirit as
this is found that which conspires
most to make tae coming day one to
be desired. May the coming Thanks
giving day be one of blessing and
unalIoyed pleasure to the homes of
Grand Rapids
