"Think and Thank"
Suggested Motto
for Nation Today

"Think and Thank" was the motto
upon the family crest of the great He
brew philanthropist Sir Moses Monte
fore. 1t would be an appropriate
armorial motto for America today.
These two little English words, differ
ing in single vowel, were originally
identical In the Anglo-Saxon tongue,
a thank" was a think" Thanking
comes from thinking, and thankful
ness from thoughtfulness and thanks
giving from thOught-giving. This will
be season of unusual Thanksgiving
for we are made to think as we have
not been wont to think. 1t will be
a very selfish soul that this season
fails to think of the sorrows and the
sufferings of others.
Look back at that first American
Thanksgiving. Strange skies, sparse
settlements. sparse larder, savage en-
emy, but thankful spirit! What makes
the memory of the Pilgrim so pre-
cious? His thankfulness AS Howell
puts It:
''It is no improper comparison that
thankful heart is like box of pre-
cious ointment which keeps the smell
long after the thing is spent"
The Pilgrim and the Puritan have
passed on, but they have left us a
precious possession-a Thanksgiving
day and the Thanksgiving spirit.
Theirs was the indomitable spirit be-
cause they thanked God and took
courage" They landed undesignedly
on ''rock-bound wintry strand" but
they thanked God and took courage.
They found no gold, but they did find
the golden grain of a first harvest and
they thanked God and took courage.
They found a rude wilderness, but
they thanked God and took courage,
and burrows were turned and towns
were built and cities grew and facto-
ries fourished and culture developed
and instead of a wilderness a garden
blossomed and the fragrance Of their
memory still survives and the spirit
of their grace still inspires.
The Colorado statesman., 1920-11-20

we must in the inner consciousness
separate the true from the false in
principles of labor and living.
No man, even of three-score-aye
four-score and ten, has ever known
this law to fail In single season. 1t
knows no variation in all the cycles of
time.
But grains and fruits are not all
that we are garnering. Chaff and
weeds are not all we ought to sepa-
more important still. In the store
house of the heart and mind and soul,
is it not we'll to seek, just as care
fully, though sometimes in vain, to
keep only the better, the brighter. the
more enduring things?
When the bleak November of life
comes we shall have need of them.
Dreary will be the winter to him
whose granaries are empty. But
drearier and more desolate still must
be the winter of old age to the man
or woman whose mind and heart and
soul have brought from the harvest
only the Joys that are chaff and the
virtues that are mere windfalls, at
tained and adhered to only through
easy convenience.
When that winter comes, as 1t must
to many of us. we shall have only our
selves to turn to, and we shall find
only that which we have sown and
harvested in the bright spring and
golden summer-the good grain, the
sound fruit. the flowers, the high i'm
pulses, the sacrifices, the loves, yes,
and the cheat, the chaff, the weeds, the
windfalls, the hates, the jealousies,
the low passions-all these and nothing
more, to sustain us or to render us
desolate.
We may, If we will, make each day
cycle of all the seasons. We sow
each morning and reap each noon and
garner each evening the fruits of our
living in this little day. Day by day,
If we strive on in right and hope and
courage, must our knowledge and our
strength, and our store increase. Day
by day, through many failings and
fallings, do we come nearer TO the
true manhood and the true woman
hood.-Charles Grant Miller in the
Christian Herald.

Divine Lesson in
the Garnering Of
the Golden Grain

The summer is over and the har-
vest is past. The sad Skies. the bleak
fields, the bare trees, the raw winds
that whistle and groan and sob and
sigh their dirges mournfully remind US
that the season of fruitage has gone
by and the time has come when we
can only turn away, each to himself,
and measure up our garnerings.
Nature gives us a seed time and
harvest time.
But these would be meaningless to
when, at the warning touch of winter
chill, we must measure our gains and
consider our losses.
But for the lessons of this season
no man would labor; we would know
naught of temperance or thrift; we
would go through the bright spring
only singing, and idle away the sum
mer in dreams.
So 1t is part of the divine plan that
each of US should now go apart and
carefully separate the wheat from the
chaff, the flowers from the weeds, and
that which is good and sound and en-
. during from all that perishes and
taints. 1t is now that each must hon
estly examine and weigh the product
of his own works.
1t were useless now to try to de-
ceive even ourselves.
Now, If at no other time, we see
the vast difference in value between
the picked fruit and the windfalls.
The enc heap we proudly store
AWAY, knowing it will keep sweet and
whole to the winters depths, and the
other we cast aside. that 1t may not
contam.aate as It rots.
1t is sad, street. task-sweet for
the counted gains, sad for the oppor-
tunities lost and to come no more.
And as we garner the gains we also
garner wisdom.
AS we separate the wheat from the
chaff and the sound fruit from the
windfalls, so, whether We will or not,
