Among the Indians Of America the
custom of having a Thanksgiving feast
was practically unlversal-at least
among those who had any amount of

Thanksgiving Fable.

An aged Turkey, once upon a time
had occasion to read the Riot act to a
Grandson because the latter was a
Glutton.
ut Behooves you to Fast for a few
weeks" said the Wise Old Bird, 'for
Thanksgiving draweth apace-that
season when long-legged Bipeds
Swoop down upon Us without Warn

Neck"
"Oh, go tot" exclaimed the Young
Glutton. you think because Old Age
has made you Gouty and rendered you
Unable to Partake of the Good things
of Life that you can Stun me. I'm
Dead Next. Seer?
"Very WE'LL" answered the Grand
sire. "Keep right on getting Obese
and you will be Dead Next for keeps /;
then You'll see who does the Stuthng."
And the late November returns
showed that the Old Turk knew

WHERE THE WILD TURKEY CALLS-THE REAL THANKSGIVING BIRD

America has more to be thankful for
yearly, than any other nation in the
world; but our thanks are tempered
by the gravity of the sorrow Of our
neighbors.
The year has not been one of great
happiness, peace and prosperity. 1t ia
a year of travail for humanity-the
travail of a people being born again.
But out of 1t will come a disciplined
and sober people; a people who will
know the realities of life better.
We will learn that life is a serious
matter, and no silly, simpering affair.
The war has brought us again to an
understanding OF the terrible earnest
ness Of the thing we call life.
The earth is in process, and we still
have earthquakes and volcanic erup-
lions.
Humanity, too, is in process, and
strife and sorrow and death will con-
tinue to be its lot. We must face life
resolutely and meet destiny undis-
mayed.
This year we will not be thankful
so much for the blessings we have re-
given to us-for being pampered by a
prodigal Providence-and being re-
lieved of our burdens. as we will be
thankful for the strength to bear them.
In the shrine of our hearts our deep
est prayer is not that We shall be re-
lieved of our burdens; but that we
shall be given the strength to bear
them, for we are great In the degree
and the manner in which we face our
tasks and perform them. The Great
Souls are those that have suffered
and endured.
Our Thanksgiving this year will be
no perfunctOry, infantile prattle be-
cause of safety.
This is year of reckoning with
fate; of being thankful if we, our
selves, have not fallen in the wreck
age. We are thankful not for what
has happened; but for what has not
happened.
Life is not a trivial pastime. 1t is
deadly earnest. 1t is the course that
destiny takes, and let us be thankful,
not for less of life, but for more Of it,
and the courage, the fortitude, the
strength, ana the persistence TO meet
its difficulties and continue its course
undaunted by disaster and unspoiled
by success.
We are thankful for Character, not
charity, and for iron wills that have
not been broken by the inevitablel--

THIS is the week of Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day is an Amerl-
can custom started by the Pill
grims who landed on the new
continent and faced hardships which
few can realize who are reared in
the wealth and luxury of the land to-
day.
The season had been q hard one.
Many had died and the prospect of
starvation during the cold winter with
its ice and snow doomed large. So,
when the harvest yielded enough to
keep them until another season would
produce the necessities of life, they
met that last Thursday in November
in year 1921, and gave thanks to their
God, who had remembered them.
ThankfulneSs is usually in inverse
ratio to the value of the thing for
which we give thanks. This is no dis
arrangement of the things we are crate
full for; but humanity does not think
of thanks until it has felt the terrors
Of distress.
The rich who live in luxury and ease
do not thank with their hearts. Their
thanks are but formal expressions of
meaningless words. How can words
mean anything when one has not felt
the things which make for thankful
ness?
But the pOverty-stricken who have
faced starvation pour out thanks from
their humble hearts for the things
that have saved their lives.
Those who live In gorgeous homes
with comfortable fireplaces do not
think Of thanks. But those who live
In the little howell with big cracks in
the walls and crevlces about the doors
and windows and without fuel, give
thanks Cor the comfort of fire.
We do not prize health until we have
lost II, and we do not appreciate life
until we have faced the danger of hay
ing to give 1t up.
That which we have we are likely to
accept as a matter of course; but be
deprived of it aud the sudden realiza-
ton of Its value jars our souls like an
earthquake.
the word for things necessary to life
and happiness only when we have had
to do without them.
We are not thankful for that TO
which we are accustomed and accept
rhoughtlessly. But when we are de-
prIved of the necessities of life and
face the hardshIps, including death
that come as result, we are thankful
with all our haart,

is an Old institution.

Despite popular opinion to the con-
trary, Thanksgiving day as an insti-
tuition is not peculiarly American.
For history shows that all ancient ma
lions used to celebrate some feast of a
thanksgiving nature, while most of the
tribes of our American Indians had a
big gathering and n harvest feast
years before the white man ever set
foot on the shores of the new world.
BY the Greeks and Romans the fes-
tival days In honor of the goddess OF
agriculture were times of rustic sport,
of professions through the fields and
the decorating of the home with fruits
and flowers. The people Of Egypt en-
joyed time of feasting after gather
ing in their haryests and laid the
fruits of the year on the altar Of the
Goddess Isis.
