RECOUNT BLESSINGS
AND RETURN THANKS
Well for Nation to Be Re-
minded of Gods Gifts.

m HERE is no more important day
i In our national calendar than that
on which we are called upon by our
national and state executives to as
semble in our accustomed places of
worship to rendet devout thanksgiving
to God for our blessings, both collec-
tive and individual.
1t is well for our entire nation thus
emphatically to be reminded of Its
dependence on God and Of it's obliga-
ton to Him.
1t is well for US both as individuals
and as a people thus seriously to take
account Of our blessings and thus for
mally and ultimately to express our
gratitude.
For we are entirely too much In
clined to magnify the ills we suffer,
the difficulties we encounter, and the
disappointments which befall us that
we lose sight Of the things which,
if received and used in the right way,
enrich and ennoble our lives. One
need not make very diligent search
in order to discover a vast number
of things In this favored land of ours
which call for thanksgiving. Nor does
1t require much further investigation
to make clear that the Ills which af-
fiict us most deeply are due, not to
any failure of divine benehcence, but
ito our own sins and follies. And what
Is true in this regard of the nation Is
true also In large measure of each
individual. Our only unbearable
troubles are those which we bring
upon ourselves through cur disregard
of the laws of God. So long as we
remain in vital union with Him, the
real values of life are still left us,
whatever sorrows may overtake u.s.
The occasion which bids us recall
our mercies may also be an occasion
Of repentance For 1t not infrequently
serves to remind us of blessings squan-
dered and opportunities neglected. 1t
is we'll to express in words our appre-
citation Of the good gifts that come
down from the Father of light, but
such expression becomes mere mock
cry If we use these gifts unworthily.
It will be well, therefore, If we make
Thanksgiving day time of heart
searching. care we as individuals. as
a people, seeking to render service to
our fellows that is proportionate to
our advantages and opportunities? Or
are we dishonoring the God whom we
praise with our lips by living in Phar-
isaic self-complacency and selfish dis
regard Of the needs Of our less fortu-
nate brothers and sisters?
Rightly observed, Thanksgiving day
might mark the beginning of a revival
that would revitallze the church and
purify our national lfe Sunday

OUR BLESSINGS; ART
OF BEING THANKFUL
Time TO Take Stock of the
Good Things in Life.

FEW Of us, suppose. often step to
= analyxe the things which touch
ma most or mean most to us. Our
greatest blessings, perhaps, we some
times try most to avoid.
II today we should each take stock
VI the personal blessings for which
we should thank the good Lord, what
would they be? Not the same for all
Of us, perhaps, and yet for most Of
us very largely the same.
For myself / am most thankful for
work-for the necessity and the oppOT-
tunity of regularly doing something;
for the Joy of the WEAKNESS that
comes from mental or physical toll.
One of the saddest objects in the
world is man who does not like 70
work, who cannot work, or who has
mo work to do
Just the other day had a letter
from a young fellow who through mis-
fortune and illness has for thgee years
been unable to work. "Will you not
pray with me-" he wrote, shat / may
soon be strong again, for It will be
the happiest day Of my life when I
can go to work"
! am thankful next for opportunity.
II never had chance" a hopeless,
shiftless failure said to me only few
days ago. am glad for my chance"
for the far-reaching daily outlook 20
learn something new, to do something
better. to help someone who Is down
and to stir someone to greater ambi-
ton and greater effort.
J am thankful for health, for the
strength and energy that are needed
to do the work that presents itself
every day, to meet the problems that
sometimes seem too difficult to bel
solved. to accomplish the duties that
multiply and crowd upon one and sap
ones vitality and try ones courage.
am thankful for friends for the
Joy Of home and home ties. for the
loving association and help Of those
with whom l am daily in contact and
who every day make work sweeter
and life more worth while
4 am thankful for life itself and for
all 1t has meant and for all that II
may mean here and hereafter.
! And You who read these words will,
az you read, perhaps, set down the
catalogue Of your own individual
blessings, which. though they may not
be the same as mine. will yet be made
more real and more vital because You
have turned your thoughts to them.

when the day came round.
The result rather worried Mr.. Strut,
however. Combined with the facts
that his address had seemingly failed
to enrapture his audience. and that
1t had given a rather. hollow sound
even to himself. and the further fact
that his concealed disappointment over
the absence Of his favorite bird had
induced q At Of indigestion. was an
increasing consciousness that he was
himself a member Of the takers bri-
gade rather than soldier In the army
of toilers at work upon the foHnda-
lions of better future. Although I'M
punctured by age and disability. he
was of the road Of actual affairs, be-
ing Of that leisure class that, living
upon accumulated competence, spends

cussfon, out OF contact with the hard
conditions OF the real service Of prog

chagrin and dissatisfaction. Mr.. Strut
came upon group of italian laborers
and was struck by their hearty and
joyous dealing with the question Of So

road making; and little later he
drew near to another force of aliens
who were at work upon the founda-
lions Of a new building. These last
had taken Of sand and rocks and ce-
ment and poured the mass into a con-
crete mixer, placing upon the top OF
the machine an American flag. These
concrete illustrations Of true Ameri-
canism so affected the observer that
he might have been heard as he
told himself that there was more prog
tress going on than he was actually
concerned In. that sand, cement and
pieces Of Plymouth Rock were still go,
ing into the racial material Of New
America. and that to build American,
institutions under the American dag
was also his business. He even said
to himself in his sense Of usefulness
and humiliation that perhaps he. HIM

WHAT THANKSGIVING
SHOULD MEAN TO US
Pilgrim Men and Women at
Plymouth Set Example.

IN THANKSGIVING is a day unique In
4 the list of holidays-not perhaps,
so unique In its conception as in the
meaning which the day has come to
have. We think of it as day of get
ting together. The dinner Is its SYM
Dol. Faith in the goodness of God and
a reyerent and formal prayer of
thanksgiving for His bounty is its
avowed purpose
But its greatest profit to us may
come from the thoughts 1t invokes Of
that little band of hardy men and
women who knew what it meant to
face hunger: to know hunger and
stick to an appointed task. That task
happened to be the opening up Of that
new land which was destined to pro
vide SO. bountifully for you and me
who have Inherited 1t.
They were stickers-those from
whom this heritage has come down.
Hardy2 Yes; but with a ruggedness
that was not alone physical attribute.
They experienced the primal lessons
want, fear and the need of strife.
But they stuck. And they won. That
first Thanksgiving day was for them
a solemn rite. If they-that band of
Pilgrim men and women-could feel so
honestly thankful for Gods bounty as
it was measured out to them at Plym-
outh in 1921, what one of us in this
day and generation but needs be
ashamed to feel less. 1t was solemn
occasion, but how could they else but
be happy? Let us be happy on this
Thanksgiving day. But, too, let US not
forget -Frank Fl. Sweet.

But she offered a compromise; she
would see that dinner was served very

still be able to enjoy a long after

crowd. Mother had seen to 1t that
the family had only light breakfast,
so everyone was hungry. And how
good 1t all tasted; plates were passed
many times and all were glad they
had stayed at home for the feast. And
the fun they had after, helping mother;
each one was given some particular
task to do and almost before they
realized it everything was spick and
span.
And the wonderful afternoon they
had; how each one of them enjoyed It.
They had chosen a lonely little by
road after they had got out some dis
lance, and there were many new and
interesting things to see. There were
still nuts and persimmons left In a
few places. and mother found some
wonderful leaves that had somehow
escaped Jack Frost's touch.
The almost full moon was just com

highway on their way home, and the
beauty of the night thrilled each one
and brought the real meaning Of the
day very close to them.
Afterwards Mrs. Lester declared
that this was the only Thanksgiving
she had ever known when there were
no leftovers from the feast, for when
they got home from the long drive
they were all ravenously hungry again,
and the supper that followed was en-
