tiful of Thanksgiving poems is 1--WE
Thank Thee" by Emerson. 1t runs:
For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of birds and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee.
For blue of stream and blue Of sky;
For pleasant shade of branches high;
For fragrant air and cooling breeze;
For beauty of the blooming trees,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee.
As in most of her poems. IA devout
religious spirit pervades Phoebe Cary's
poem on Thanksgiving. 1t is an APP
peal to the groWn-ups on this day to
make Il trip back to their childhood.
and is marked by the fellcitous sim
plicity Of the "yriter:
o men, grown sick with toll and care,
Leave for a while the crowded mart
O women, sinking with despair.
Weary of limb and faint of heart,
Forget your years today and come
As children back to childhood's home.
Following again the winding rills,
Go to the places where you went
When, climbing up the summer hills.
In their green laps you sat content
And softly leaned your head to rest

Hester Prentice Leaned Against the
Doorway.

November was upon them and Thanks
giving only few days away.
Inconsistencies tugged at her heart
strings. Back there in New England
they We're making elaborate prepare
lions for the great festival. They had
written and urged the young pion-
GERS to come home for Thanksgiving.
Hester smiled bitterly. Why, there
was scarcely bushel of flour in the
house and the bacon was almost gone
what could one do with nothing
coming in?
Dicks hopefulness had Jared on
her nerves. Only this morning she
had spoken sharply to him when he
had made some remark about Thanks
giving. A pang of remorse now sent
AT the very edge of the opening she
hesitated and peered within the tun-
mel. Dick was there-sitting on a
key, his head bowed in his hands
alone with his disappointment!
Dick, Dick" she cried, going to
him and folding his head in her arms.
Come up to the house. Leave this
dreadful place"
His face was hot with fever and his
eyes were bright.
Il believe l will come UP for a
while, dear" he laughed uncertainty.
This hole in the ground has rather
got on my nerves, and if l could only
sleep for hile-there-there I've
forgotten to cover that dynamite"
iii come down and do that, dear"
protested his wife. You know I'll
be just as careful. Gomez
Hester supported Dick up the hill
and somehow got him into bed, and
because they were twenty miles from
the nearest town and there was no
direct means of communication save
through their neighbor, Lin Dowd,
five miles away, she had to admins
ter the simple remedies at her com
mand until she could devise some
way of getting word to the doctor.
Presently Dick was muttering rest
lessly in the little bedroom while Hes
ter picked up his gun and went quick
ly up into the woods behind the cabin.
If she could only make Lin Dowd
hear the report of the gun he might
suspect trouble and come to her aid.
Once in the dim aisles of the pines
she started wild turkey which flut-
tered up with raucous squawk.
There ia our Thanksgiving din

of your ves-understand?"
eve don't understand" replied Dick
grimly.
Come with me, then" Lin led the
way down to the upheaval that marked
the site of the mine. Look at this
and this. The explosion has cut into
the vein that you always believed
was there-you wouldn't have found
it any other way, and, well, l guess
you're millionaire for keeps!
THAT Horn of Plenty mine has GER
tainly overlooked with gold-and I'm
darned glad of it-and if you folks
can stop hugging each other you bet

the oven now while Hester put the
finishing touches to her timed vege-
tables and the pumpkin pies she had
made.
81 suppose you covered the dyna-
mite, Hester?" asked Dick suddenly.
81 forgot, dear" she replied, and
she had also forgotten her intention
of blowing up the mine. Thanksgiv-
ing preparations had driven despair
and bitterness from her heart. Il will
run down there in few moments"

began Dick, who had dressed himself
and was trying his strength.
Hester made such protest that he
compromised on walking as far as the
big rock.

Why, if Dick were only well again l
would be the most delighted woman
in the universe. But we will have
Thanksgiving dinner in spite of you!"
she turned and shook her fist at the
Horn of Plenty below. Il will make

The angels song. ION Earth Peace
Good win Toward Men," can also be
translated peace to men Of good
WILL" This version IL timely, as well
as correct for the Greek. For peace
can and shall come to men Of good
will. and It cannot come to men OF
bad Will.
Who is the man Of good Will II
II he who has q choice Of happiness,
OF righteousness, Of goodness for all
men. 1t Is he. who desires that men
may be blessed, ana who tries to
make the desire effective. The man
Of good will does not hate. Neither
does he incnrnnte hate In any weapon
offensive or defensive. He Is free from
revenge. and is fall Of forgiveness
for the penitent. He may not forget
Injuries. but. what is more important.
he Is eager to make injury the occa-
sion for helping the offender to over
come the evil within the heart or
win out Of which the injury sprung.
He is capable Of mighty indignntions,
but he does not suffer himself to be
conquered by them. Without being
impasslve, he Is calm In the face of
wrong. and he is very patient, be-
ing more willing to be the victim than
the agent of evil. His hatred Of all
sin and his love for the man who,
despite his manhood, is guilty of sin,
are alike strong and lasting. He is
free from suspicion, he thinketh no
evil. He loves his neighbor, not only
as himself. but even more, being more
eager to do Justice than to receive
Justice.
The qualities and elements which
constitute the man Of good will also
constitute the commonwealth of good
Will.
Such a commonwealth Is a common

From scared to sheltered shore.
