THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving Day, legacy of
the Pilgrims, is the most distinct
lively American of all our holidays.
1t is especially cherished because of
the democratic ideals it represents,
and because of its religious signi-
ficance as time Of thankfulness to
God for our blessings.
Driven by religious persecution
from England, the Pilgrims found
refuge in the Netherlands, but be-
cause Dutch living conditions dis
pleased them, they set out for the
New World. Landing at Plymouth
Rock on December 21, 1920, they
did not find a country of abund-
ance. It took hard work and con-
stant application for them to sur
vive the severe winter One Of ev-
cry two families perished from
cold, hunger, or disease. When
fortune finally smiled and Novem-
her, 1921, brought bumper crop.
Governor William Bradford Of the
Plymouth colony ordered three

ay feast of thanksgiving:

day feast Of thanksgiving:
From this three-day celebration,
and a similar day Of religious
thanks giving held by the Pilgrims
on July 80, 1923, to express thanks
to God for favorable change in
the weather that saved the crop
and prevented wholesale starva-
ton, our modern Thanksgiving
Day originated.
George Washington issued the
first presidential Thanksgiving pro-
clamation on October 80, 1889, to
mark the adoption of the Consti-
tuition. He designated Thursday,
November 26, as as a day of gen.
eral thanksgiving On which he
would also ask God "to enable us
all, whether in public or private
stations, to perform our several
and relative duties properly and
unctually."
The next president to issue an
important Thanksgiving proclama-
ton was Abraham Lincoln, who in
1868 urged all Americans to OBJ
serve the last Thursday in Novem-
ber as day for national thanks
Marion progress., 1949-11-24
LET US RETURN THANKS

On Thanksgiving Day many reverent Anne
ricans, looking with thanks to God, will give
testimony to their belief in a supreme being,
interested in the welfare of men and the de-
velopment Of saints.
Thanksgiving Day will be observed with
deep emotion by many believers in God. There
will be many others, however, who, despite
a fundamental belief in supreme being and
a ready acknowledgement of devine blessings,
will not bother themselves with the special
services held in the churches of the land.
Among the things for which the people of
this country should be thankful is the freedom
(which has come to American men and women.
We live our lives under no compulsion but our
own willingness to attempt to approach the
divine spirit in relationship with other strug-
Cling human beings. At the same time, we are
not required by the law of the land to make
any obeisance except that dictated by our con-
sciences.
The United States, above all the nations on
earth, and the American people, apparently
above all other living groups have been
abundantly blessed. Surely, if benign provi-
dence has a hand in the affairs of man, there
is occasion for reverent appreciation and
grateful thanks.
There will be some return thanks for their
worldly goods others for their sound health
and still others for the general good that has
come to them in life. The original Thanksgiv-
ing Day was designed to commemorate boun-
tiful harvests, which assured early Americans
sufficient food for the sustenance of life. The
day represents, by proclamations of of the
President and the Governors of the American
states, a special occasion set aside for public
expression of thanks to Almighty God.

THE ROSE = Queen of all Flowers
BY MRS. w. S. SHIFLET

Cupid used the Rose as a dart tc
penetrate the heart of love, the
Rose conveying message in num-
ber and color. If Cupid sends Red
Roses, it's love and if there three
they say 81 Love You" When
three white ones, they say 81 wish
to we'd" If three yellow roses, 'I'm
very jealous" Of course its the
imaginative and sentimental in
mankind that endows them with
this intelligence and the rose still
speaks in your gift thru all the
ages, lets grow them and let them
speak for Marion.
Three months of the year the
Rose holds first place. In February
we use them for Valentines and in
arrangements for a patriotic color
scheme, nothing could be more
lovely than Red Roses, white snap
dragons and Blue Delphinium to
represent Old Glory. We wear a
rose on the second Sunday in May
and June for Roses that grow in our
family garden, Mother and Dad,
Red if they are living and white if
they have been transplanted to Gar
den Fair above. June is also called
month of Roses and Brides and they
seem to belong to each other. The
Rose is really Queen at this time
as various designs, bouquets and
rangements Of Roses are used for
weddings.
There is no definite way I'd use
the Rose, or container to hold them.
We think of the Rose with fine
china, porcelain and silver, but they
are used with grass and shrubs in
containers Of copper, pewter, pot
terry and glass, and have won blue
ribbons in all at various Flower
Shows.
The Rose, Queen Of all Flowers,
it's beauty and fragrance brings JOY
to all, in the garden Of King or
around lonely cabin. So lets grow
Roses.

NATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS

We have been of the opinion for long time
that our government is becoming too paternal-
istic in it's attitude to the average citizen.
People are depending less and less upon
their own individual efforts and are depend
ing more and more upon the government to
take care of their problems.
So far great many people are concern
ed, the more you do for them, the less they
want to do for themselves.
We wonder if the same thing isn't true of
some of the nations of the world,
For a number of years these nations have
been depending upon the United States for as
sistance. This assistance has been given freely
in most cases.
But how long is it to continue?
Is our country to play the part of Santa
Claus to the rest of the world for an indefinite
period of time?
One reason given for this assistance is that
lit keeps other nations from going communis-
tic. ~.
That's fine. But what do you suppose will
happen when this aid eventually is with
}drawn?
We are inclined to believe that the answer
lis contained in Vce-President Barkley's IA
nous story about the man in Kentucky for
whom the Senator had done many favors
throughout the years. In the last senatorial
lcampaign. Barkley learned to his amazement
that the beneficiary of his many kind deeds
was going to vote against him. He called upon
the voter and reminded him of all that had
been DONE The man hesitated moment and
then said: Eyes, that's all true, Senator; but
what have you done for me ately."-The
State
Marion progress., 1949-11-24

Since the beginning of time,
flowers and gardens have played an
important role in the life of man
and are symbolic of Religion, His
tory and Romance. For centuries
the Rose has borne the title 'Queen
of the Flowers" and has been the
inspiration of more stories, poems
and songs than any other flower.
The Rose is one of the oldest cul-
tivated flowers, its origin is hidden
in the far distant past but every
few years a new variety is perfect
ed. You may be casual gardner
but that need make no difference,
you can grow roses. Choose your
kind according to the care you are
willing to provide, and your JOY
will be enough to share with others
1t has been said that Sappho, the
ancient Greek Poetess first called
the Rose, "Queen Of Flowers" and
the Greeks and Romans used the
rose for wreaths as an oriental ex-
preston of beauty and as a SYM
boil of love, joy and prudence, the
sweetness and beauty of young
love. The Greek word for rose is
Rhodon, and one of the Greek leg
ends tells us that once a beautiful
maiden called Rhodanthe fled to
the Temple of Diana in order to
escape pursuit of three ardent low
ers. Rhodanthe's beauty and radi-
ence Impressed the handmaidens of
Diana so much that they decided to
give her Diana's place as their God
dess. Apollo driving his sun char
ion overheard, looked down and
seeing the insult to his sister,
Diana, became so angry that he
changed Rhodantha into rose and
the handmaidens into thorns to be
with her forever, and spying the
ardent lovers, he changed them into
the worm, the bee and the butter
fly and to this day they are still
pursuing the rose.

ZERO HOUR APPROACHES

ZEKO HOUK APPROACHES
On November 28, the people of Mcdowell
county will be called upon to decide if they
want modern new hospital. Every man,
man and child in the county will be given an
opportunity to invest according to their finan-
cial ability in the Embarrassing drive for this
vital cause.
That our county is one of the many in North
Carolina now without adequate hospital ia
Icilites is tragic truth with which all of us
are familiar. The number of beds for every
thousand people is only IL.
We know too that during the war shame
full percentage of young men were reject
ed for physical unfitness when they came up in
the draft. Yes 6O.3 per cent of the young men
|called in Mcdowell county were turned down
|-46.7 per cent 5f the whites and GA per
cent Of the Negroes! These men were rejected
because of bad eyes, bad teeth, bad feet and
other similar physical defects that an ade-
quate countrywide progress of health care and
disqualification possibly could have prevented
There are other equally disturbing facts
we have too few doctors and nurses mid
wives still attend at some of our births; our
infant and maternal mortality rates are too
high; and our sanitation laws are not as strong
las they should be.
We need a new hospital in Mcdowell county
in size to serve $4,000 people. We must
also care for cases from Yancey Mitchell,
Avery, and other surrounding counties.
Maybe we haven't had to go to a hospital
lately. But don't think you never will. Sooner
or later you'll get sick. We all do To you sick
ness may come slowly, or it can strike like
lightning When it does come an accessible
hospital bed could very possibly mean the diff
ference between your life and death.
Federal and state grants available amount
to 685 of the total construction and equip
ment cost. That means the federal and state
governments stand ready to give Mcdowell
County $480,000 cash on the barrelhead! All
we have to do tb qualify for this bonanza is to
raise the remaining 315 per cent
Mcdowell county citizens and industries
have given $12O,0oo of that amount. It is up
to everyone to give generously to help raise the
100000 that we must have to get the State
and Federal money. e> e.,
Incidentally there are no strings attached
to the U. S. and N. C. grants. The money is an
absolute gift, and to get it we simply raise our
matching share. It boils down to this: for
every $3.50 Mcdowell county puts up to
build hospital, the state and federal govern
in any mans language
So, how about it, mister?
Will you do your part to insure the health
and happiness of yourself, your family, and
your friends and neighbors in Mcdowell coun-
ty? Don't miss this chance.
Your contribution, no matter how small,
will help to make Mcdowell county safe,
healthier and happier place in which to live.

BUY SEALS TO FIGHT T. B.

While the fight against tuberculosis has
made great progress, medical experts expect
that new drugs will make possible the aboli-
ton of the diseases, we should not overlook
the fact that nearly $4,000 persons die every
year from tuberculosis. The disease is the sew
enth, greatest cause Of death in the United
States. This should emphasize the Importance
of the annual sale of Christmas Seals for the
purpose of securing funds with which to ac-
celerate the fight the great White Plague.
The National tuberculosis Association esti-
mates the annual cost of tuberculosis at
$350,000,000. They think that a disease,
known to be durable and preventable should
be prevented by nation alert as the United
States and when it occurs, should be cured.
When residents of Mcdowell County buy
christmas seals, they contribute their money
to the greatest undertaking.
