THANKSGIVING.

On this glad Thanksgiving morning,
We gather in Thy courts to-day
To bring our need of alteration;
So hear us, Father, while we pray.
Accept the worship that we give Thee.
Humbly bowling meath Thy throne;
Receive our tribute, Holy Father;
We are Thine, and Thine alone.
For Thy mercies, Lord, we thank Thee,
For Thy watchfulness and care:
Evidences of Thy goodness
Are strewn round US every where.
For health our gratitude we offer,
Creature comforts freely given,
Food and raiment, shelter also
We have enjoy ed as if from heaven.
Friends and friendship are blessing,
Fireside joys, home, loved ones and
Peace, plenty and prosperity
Are evident throughout the land.
But, best of all among Thy blessings
Is Jesus Christ. our Savior, Lord
Who gave His life for our salvation,
AS is revealed within Thy word.
And all our sins he freely pardons,
If we repent, confess, believe;
A cleansed heart, renewed nature,
The right to sonship we receive.
And with it also right to worship
God as cOnsciences direct,
To read Thy word and catch its meaning
AS each ones judgment does elect.
For this we offer Thee our homage,
Our praise to Thee we gladly bring =
All! we'll, we. find great occasion
To praise our Lord for every thing.
o, base the soul that is not grateful,
Considering Thy mercies, Lord;
Who would not turn aside to thank Thee,
Nor take one treasure from his hoard,
To give to those whose lots are cheerless'
Whose lives are full of tell and care;
Perplexed, cast down and disappointed,
TheY re found about US every where.
Now all we have and all we are
Are rich provisions of Thy grace.
Acknowledging Thy love and care
We come to bow before Thy face.
Accept our homage, Holy Father,
Fill US with love for all mankind;
Fill us with love for Thee, o, Savior.
A rich experience may we find;
Because we trust Thee gracious Father,
0 may We trust Thee more and more;
To keep us here as per Thy pleasure,
Then bring us to the other shore.
There with Thy saints We'll ever praise
Thee,
Wen always sing redemption's song;
For what Thou vast, art, ever will be
The joyful anthem we'll prolong.

About Forgiveness.

In the phrase, Forgive us our
debts, as we forgive our Debtors" the
divine order would seem to be that
the unforgiving spirit incapacitates it.
self for the gift of forgiveness. There
is such thing, and a terrible thing
1t is, too, as limiting God In his own
home Jesus found 1t impossible to
work miracles because of his neigh
bors' want of faith. When Jesus says
that eff We forgive not men their tres
passes, neither will your father for
give your trespasses," he does not
mean that God proposes an arbitrary
evening up of things He means SIM
ply that the unforgiving spirit makes
it impossible for that spirit to receive
forgiveness at Gods hand, however
much God might want to bestow for
giveness. To be forgiven we must for
give. If we find in ourselves the un-
forgiving spirit we may be sure that
we are not yet at peace with God
ourselves.

Union With Christ.

In the Epistle to the Ephesians Paul
uses four figures to explain the union
between Christ and his church. The
first is the temple and it's foundation.
suggesting structural union; the sec
ond is the head and the body, sug-
costing vital union; the third is the
husband and the wife, picturing affec-
tional union; and the fourth is the
soldier armor, suggesting union for
service. Each presents a beautiful and
helpful phase of the Christian life. In
these four figures we have a full and
perfect idea of how Christ and the
Christian are one Beware lest this
union be obscured or impared.-Ex

Justice Whites spotIiaht.

Chief Justice White of the United
States Supreme court uses little
lighting arrangement when he's hand
ing down decisions that reminds one
of the spotlight Oh the little girl in
the middle of the front row in { mus
ical comedy. The Supreme court room
is never brilliantly lighted, but all OF
the other justices read their decisions
just from the light of the room-that
is, they don't use desk lights, or II
they do, the lights don't show. Chief
Justice White, sitting in the middle of
the row of solemnly garbed jurists,
usually closes his eyes till it comes
time for him to hand down decision.
Then he perks up, ficks on the little
light in front of him, and 1t sits at
such an angle that it illmines his face
for all the world like the headliner in
a vode-veel act.

the ancient palace Of Selene, which
contained the figure of the sun god
virtually complete and in a perfect
state of preservation. He saw the
statue after it had been set up in the
home of the farmer who had discov-

In the fifth century, B. G. He drew

Blamed the Separator

Just after the election a large
crowd had gathered at courthouse
in North Carolina to see the official
vote counted. To facilitate the work,
an adding machine was used. Among
the attendants there was a large
number of people from the rural dis
tricts who had never seen one of
these complicated machines. They
viewed it with open distrust. And
when the votes were finally counted,
one of the defeated candidates re-
marked to a friend as he turned
away: Il know / was elected to that
office, but that blame separator
cheated me out of it."

America $40 Move"

Years ago there was a notable and
eccentric Individual called the Great
American Traveller. But recent statis-
tics would seem to show that pretty
nearly everybody in this country is
becoming a great American traveller.
Ten years ago the railroad experts
figured out that the total number of
passengers carried in the United
States one mile was about $780,
100000. Now the number is put at
29,500, 100000, an increase of more
than 120 per cent. OF course this ex-
hibit includes those who go only short
distances. But even at that the show
ing is remarkable. The average Amer
lean keeps ION the move" to an ex-
tent not known among his contemr
poraries elsewhere.
