Another wartime Thanksgiv-
ing is approaching, and perhaps
some of us are wondering Just
what we can be thankful for at
a time when the entire world is
in the most cahotic, merciless
war history has ever recorded.
Surely there isn't much to be
thankful for at a time when all
the old-faShioned decencies
which our forefathers respected
are so neglected and forgotten"
we may think. But can't that
belief be challenged?
I think that first and fore
most, we should be profoundly
grateful that we are on the side
of right and justice in this war.
We know that our cause will be
victorious because right always
triumphs over wrong in the
end, however long it may be in
coming.
One of the best ways to en-
umerate our blessings is to i'm
agine that we are Germans or
japanese and then to compare
the two ways of life. Surely,
then, no one can doubt that we
are the luckiest people on earth.
No matter how much our lives
may be complicated and confus-
ed by ration pints and shoe
stamps, gasoline rationing and
the tire shortage, our small sac
rlflces are as nothing beside the
sufferings of the people of Stall
lngrad and Coventry. Although
many of our relatives and
friends are in the armed servi-
ces, we have never had the hor-
rible experiences connected with
the war which the peoples of
Europe know we'll. None of our
families have been completely
annihilated.
We are grateful for the priv
ilege of going to the churches of
our choice, uninfluenced by a
dictator's orders. This blessing
has been sought for centuries
by all peoples and many are the
men who have died for it.
We are grateful for the beauty
of nature for her majestic
snoW-capped mountains, the
twinklng gem-like stars of night
set in an indigo cloak, the gor-
geouS autumn colorS we see all
around us in this season, and
the blessed peace and quietness
OF the open spaces, unmarried by
wars hideous landmarks.
Our list could be heightened
indefinitely. Surely you too, can
add many things to be thankful
for on the three hundred and
tWenty-second anniversary of
the first Thanksgiving. However,
