privilege Of living on the farm, and We have
SO many things to he thankful for, l will
take that for my subject-"WhO We Have
10 BE Thankful For" First, this great
world which we live in is wonderful bless
ing TO us. If it wasn't for this world
what would we do? Next, we are to be
thankful for our Almighty God, for we
know that without His work We couldn't do
anything. We're to be thankful for our
home and our father, mother, brothers and
sisters. 1t has long been an honored Gus
tom Of our people to return in the fruitful
autumn OF the year praise for Gods many
blessings and mercies to us as nation.
We still follow that custom today. Thurs
day, November 20, 1911, was day set by
our president, Woodrow Wilson, 10 thank
orr Almighty God. We are thankful for
good ram and sunshine which He sends upon
us. We are thankful for orr indus rious
teachers our nice school buildings, our
school friends. We thankful for all
blessings which our Almighty God has be
slowed upon us this year.
While render thanks for these things,
let us pray Almighty God that in all hum
Dleness of spirit we may look always to
Him for guidance, and we may be Eep,
constant in spirit and purpose of service.
