BLESSED ABOVE ALL
Special Reasons Why Americans Should Be Grateful to God
 This Year.
F CUSTOM had not dictated nor

F CUSTOM had not dictated nor
 time hallowed the setting aside of
 a day for a national recognition
 of Divine blessings, the situation in the world today would of itself have instinctively brought about the senti- ments in the hearts of Americans suit ed to the spirit of thankfulness.
 Yet there is no occasion to resort to the clements of contrast afforded by the pictures presented here and in other countries at this time. Our peo- pie are determined to assert the na- tion's rights as operative at all times, and desirous of defending them as a part of the heritage received from an cestors who feared God, but had scant respect for persons or nations when these ignored the principles of liberty for which they were unyieldingly set in defense.
 It is beyond and outside of the field of contrast that the country bows to- day in acknowledgement of a ProYi- dence that has preserved it from the ravages of war and given it to partake richly of every form of prosperity for which a people might justly yearn. The crops are excellent. Labor in practically every field of endeavor is giving employment to the many. The distribution of material wealth is thus being effected in such manner that plenty abounds, and no table so poor that it cannot present evidences of good cheer on this festive occasion.
 Mingled, nevertheless, with the con- sciousness of our own happy state must be the sobering sentiments that take cogniZance of far other conditions elsewhere. For the war-wOrn nations it is wished that they may soon find an honorable way back to permanent peace As these sentiments take form and logical order in our own minds, they cannot but suggest our own re responsibilities, present and future. And among these the necessity of being pre- pared to assert and defend the princi- ples for which we stand and to the preservation of which thus far in our political history we are, under the goodness of God, indebted for our present peace and prosperity, must have its recognized place.

"Christmas to the young, Thanks
 giving to the old"
 The saying, like most bits of folk lore, says the Delineator, has it's roots in a common fact of living. Youth does not tend toward gratitude. It does not tend toward introspection. It does not tend toward a sense of proportion. And it is these tendencies that must unite to make the thankful heart.
 Not that young people do not love Thanksgiving. They do. And country children love it more than city chil- dren, and children of seryantless fam flies love it more than those Of the well-to-do. The reason is obvious. Thanksgiving day to a child is feast day, and half the joy of feast is in it's preparation.
 What simply reared, country bred grown-up would give up the memory of Thanksgiving day at home for all the present comfort of a French cook and an elaborate menage?
 First, there was the business of the turkey. A turkey was no ordinary, every Sunday in the winter bird in those days. Turkey twice a year was the rule, on Thanksgiving day and Christmas; on New Years day, goose or duck.
 The turkey was chosen anxiously, while mother poked it's breastbone, fa- their commented on the length and color of the pinfeathers. The after noon before Thanksgiving school al- ways "let out" early, in time for broth CT to fly into the kitchen and singe the turkey and for sister to break up the bread crusts carefully saved for weeks. Mother stuffed the turkey. Sis ter threaded the alarming needle that sewed in the stuffing, brother carried the bird to the cellar to await tomor- rows oven.
 Then there were the first cranber- ries of the season, the first nuts, the first pumpkin pies.
 Thanksgiving day was always cold and cloudy, and about mid-afternoon, when one had reached the state of coma from oyereating, it began to snow.
 Mother always asked a schoolteacher to dinner and always some bachelor of the neighborhood And always some dear neighbor or friend, or once. grand mother, and once. little sister. had died during the year. and one noticed it more than ever at the Thanksgiving dinner.
 After dinner all the women folks and the girls gathered in the kitchen to wash dishes, and the men folks and the boys went out to look at the stock.
 It is for memories like these that older people are thankful, for these and other blessings. For the simple. homely facts of living; for the oppor- unity to serve with hand and mind those that we love; for happy yester- days spent with those who loved us and are gone; for strength to see and hear and think and work, and for an occasional bit of leisure in which to dream; these make our older Thanks giving day.
