What a privilege to live in the
spirit of this day, Thanksgiving Day.
In its attitude, atmosphere we see
more clearly the purpose of Gods
will. 1t is in the clear atmosphere of
thankfulness that the mountain tops
of human character rise into view.
There is no foulness in the atmos-
phere of this day that poisons the
Christian graces. Nay, for without
the atmosphere of this day they cam
not live. 1t resurrects the past-not in
the clothes of the grave, but in the
voice of the living. The spirit of this
day floods our memory with thoughts
that cheer and ennoble. It sweetens
the path of life with the fragrance of
Gods Forget Ne Notss s"--I 1t unlocks
the treasures of memory, bringing in
to consciousness, into view the splen-
dor of Gods love, the certainty of
His faithfulness. What power of
conception thankfulness has. 1t sees
the beautiful where other eyes see
but the naked facts of existence. 1t
hears music that thrills, while other
ears hear only the grinding of relent-
less law. How grand, beautiful,
magnificent, are the experiences of
life when thankfulness sees and hears
them. 1t cheers us as it constantly
remembers Gods hand in nature, His
footsteps in history. What music,
what chorus, what an anthem, what
praise as it ever sings, not unto US,
but unto God belongs the victory
What experiences it brings to us; for
rising with the spirit of thankfulness
we rise into the presence of the living
God.
The absence of thandulness re-
veals how untrue our lives are.
Thankfulness to God is merely the
acknowledgment of truth. The un-
thankful person is living false life.
His life is untrue to facts, privilege
and duty. AS prayer is recognit-
ion of our dependence upon God amid
the darkness and uncertainties of the
future, so thankfulness is recognit-
ion of our indebtedness to Him for
the blessings of the past. To ac-
knowledge truth is always moral
strength; to refuse to acknowledge
is always moral weakness. Accord
| ingly, the worst excesses of heathen-
ism are traced by st. Paul to the in
gratitude of Gentle nations for the
light of nature and conscience. When
! they knew God, they glorifed Him
not as God, neither were thankful /;
but became vain in their imaginations
and their foolish heart was darken-
ed" The spirit of thankfulness en-

elements of our nature, it develops

ciples of integrity and honor dwell.
The noble life, the rich character, the
Christian soul lies above the plains
of ingratitude. Ingratitude ID thief
and is constantly stealing. Whatev-
er is safe in its presence depends up
on the degree of ingratitude that sx-
lists. Full grown, it knows no law of
justice, of love, Of purity. Il takes
all it can to itself, forgetting COM
pletely to give anything in return. Its
existence is a menace to our fre in
stitutions. Its spirit and activities
oppose the spirit of brotherhood. Out
of harmony with cooperation to make
men better, out Of harmony with the
forces that elevate and expand soul,
ingratitude bears the marks Of hell.
But, thank God, this hellish monster
cannot live in the sElrit Of this day.
The spirit of thanfulness banishes
this devilish fend. Sad, but alas too
true, the light of this day reminding
US of Gods boundless goodness re-
veals our contemplate ingratitude.
Ingratitude expresses itself in many
ways. We see it expressing itself in

Madamoiselle, the principal of the
school who oversees my letters asks
if you have a relative in France. If
so she will look him up, if you wish,
and receive him at her home. I am
sending you my photograph and my
brothers and it will give me great
pleasure to have yours. My little
brother is eight years old. He goes
to school and is beginning to go to
Sunday school and will receive the
sacrament first at twelve years.
I'VE are now very happy in France
because of the end of the war. We
love the American soldiers with adj
our hearts since it is thanks to them
that we have had victory sooner. We
shall always love them and you, too.
AS for me, / have two reasons for
loving you since you are my bene-
factress. / wish that all the Ameri-
can soldiers had been able to return
to their own country. The graves of
your dead will always be decorated by
us French women at the same time
as those of our fathers and brothers.
We will love them all with an equal
love.
Mama sends you assurance of her
and thanks you very much
and also all the girls who are inter-
ested in me. AS for me, I assure you
of all my affectionate gratitude.
