est nation on the face of the earth.
The record is long one. Let us, on
this day of all Thanksgiving days, for
get nothing. Let us, in mood of
gratitude and humbleness recount our
blessings and try to realize just how
lavish has been our good fortune and
just how deep is our obligation to re-
pay.
It was in time Of starvation hap
PLY ended that the first Thanksgiving
was celebrated In Massachusetts bay.
All those earliest sentiments Of graft
tude for plenty we can feel anew to-
day as we have vaguely felt them for
the past many years. We have a land
that is rich beyond all the dreams of
those discoveries who sought the
riches Of the East. Such is America,
ours for the taking.
But 1t is not upon these blessings
that we dwell today. In fact, 1t was
precisely these material good things of
which we had become surfeited and
which we took too easily for granted
in the days before the war. Theirs Is
never the power to hold a nation fitly
humble or keen for the labor Of living.
1t is rather to the Thanksgiving days
of the Revolutionary war, Of the Civil
war, that we turn with understanding
now. The Continental congress or
dained number. So did Gen. George
Washington. SO did President Lincoln,
In 1854. Here, in these events that
made our nation and saved 1t, stands
the substance of old gratitudes with
which our hearts of today can feel
akin. For Washington himself, for all
the great hearts and minds that fought
the war Of the Revolution, and having
fought It transformed its inchoate
ideals into document and union
of surprising life and vigor, we can
give thanks. For Lincoln and all the
gallantry of arms that preserved Amer
lea we can give thanks. For our
share I'm the great war and for the
deeds of our allies we can give thanks

into his laboratory. He looked at the

that strange oriental poison seemed to
be looking at him with the eyes of
an evil spirit, drawing him nearer and
nearer. He had always meant to use
1t in connection with some research
experiments, but he well knew its
power. He had heard Of that fakir
abroad who had advertised he could
make anyone thin or fat within 40

In moderation. He had made for
