I shall praise Him for His help" David writes. My praise snail be of thee oh God, praise is comedy for the upright Praise wa1teth for thee, oh God in Zion.'
 Thanksgiving Day should mean more to us than day or amusement, more than a day of feasting. God asks US to think often of His, good ness and love to us. The observance of the day is certainly in His plan for our lives--because 1t is scrip tural and has been observed for cen turies. Paul inspired in Romans 114, writes: "The goodness of God leadeth thee to repenIance,' It should cause us to thank Him with all our hearts to rededicate our lives anew to His services, to the service of others, 70 our country's best interest. His greatest gift Is the gift of His only Son, Jesus Thanks be to God for HIS unspeak- able gift" JAMES A. BRYAN,
