The Spirit of Thanksgiving

LIE SplrlC Oh ludHkSgltluk
Gratitude to our Heavenly Father
for our manifold blessings mater
ial and spiritual ought certainly
to move us individually and cor
porately to praise Him who is
"sThe Source of every Blessing"
The thought and song of thank
fulness are not enough. There
must be the deed as we'll as the
word. A spirit of thankfulness
must express itself To God the
source of every blessing the ex-
preston is in praise. To our
Country, our Church, our fellow
men, the expression is in service
and sacrifice.
There is another side to this. AS
we look around us most of US
could make a tremendous list of
things which we have prOvidential-
ly missed. | mean we could tune
our hearts TO grateful days" for
those things which have not been
our lot
l see pain and sorrow and heart
aches of one kind and another
which have come to many innocent
ones. | have been spared though
perhaps they might have been as
justly my lot. L resolve that my
gratitude shall be real and that SO
long as God allows my load to be
lighter | shall do my best in every
way to ease the burdens of those
whose carry is heavy.
Real gratitude is discernible in
the world. Rare though it is
there is no substitute. Yes the
psalmist was right "Yea a joy
full and pleasant thing it is to be
thankful.

Life Sanctified,'. John II: 1921.
This is the third in series of
messages on the High Priestly
Prayer of Christ in John II. God
not only gives men new life, but
it is His desire that men live in
keeping with that new life. Paul
says, "If any man be in Christ,
he is a new creation Old things
pass away and all things become
new" Christ prayed that this new
man might be "set apart" to God
and His will. God working through
His Living Word is able to set
apart for Himself and His service
the ''born-again believer" who has
a submissive will and a yielding
heart.

POSTAL. ETHICS - Post
master General Day has issued
a new code of ethics FOR the
$4,000 postal workers, in line
with President Kennedy's re-
cent executive order establish
ing general conduct standards
for the Government service.
One Of the provisions en-
phasizes in strong terms the
prohibition against postal work
erS engaging in partisan polit-
ical politics. This provision has
been winked at for many years
by some postal employe leaders
and it will be interesting to see
if this admonition will have
any effect on such operations.
The code also prohibits ra-
cial discrimination in employ
ment, promotion or any other
matter.
| BACK PAY-The Civil Serv-
ice Commission has proposed to
Congress legislation that would
establish single general equi-
table principle of back pay to be
followed by all Government de-
partrnents and agencies in re-
storing to any employe pay and
other benefits lost because of
unjustified or unwarranted per-
sonnel action which is later
corrected by appropriate au-
thority.
The proposed bill would give
agencies and departments the
authority to make such pay
ments Immediately without
having to wait for specific cor
rective legislation by Congress
specific decisions by the CSC,
or the courts. 1t would also
give agencies the right to make
back payments to non-veterans
who in some cases are not COW
cred by back pay provisions.
The csc said such legisla-
ton would eliminate long de-
lays which work financial
hardships on employees as well
as treating non-veterans more
equitably in the matter of back
pay, ~'-
