THANKSGIVING THOUGHTS The people of Fannville will soon be observing Thanksgiving Day, in accordance With American custom and while the world outlook is unhappy there are many reasons for ua to be thankful to the Creator we worship. Life is precious to every individual and as a beginning far Thanksgiving thoughts, let us be grateful for ex istence itself. There may be higher forms of life somewhere in a bound less universe but human beings should appreciate the opportunity to grow spiritually on a mundane globe. Next to life we would be thankful for the freedom that the Almighty has decreed for men and women. We live our lives under no compulsion but our own willingness to attempt to approach the Divine Spirit in re lationship with other struggling hu man beings. So, while the shadow of sorrow blots out peace, we should appreciate our spiritual freedom, a gift beyond comparison. Men and women of today should be thankful for the upward struggle of men, which has gradually shaped for us a world of industry and in telligence, where all enjoy the fruits of the ages of the past Born as helpless infants we inherit the great ness of former residents of the earth and we profit by their experiences, good and bad. It is a magnificent legacy that the former years have bequeathed to those alive now and it should be accepted with thanks. The slowly developed civilization of the race is expressed in material progress, which comes to us without cost and often is enjoyed without a careless thought as to the source and the strength of our way of life. Strongly challenged, as it is today, our conception of man's place in na ture belongs to the ages and shall endure if the men and women of the present are courageous in faith and intelligent in action. On Thanksgiving .Day reverent Americana lode with faith to God, giving testimony to their belief in a Supreme Being, interested in the welfare of men and development of saints. It is a religious day of deep emotion, too often disregarded for lesser interests as individuals seek escape from every day trials. Un fortunately, the churches of the land sometimes take the lead in the ''black out" of Thanksgiving Day as a re ligious occasion and, for the conven ience at the unconcerned, provide no service for the devoutly minded. We do not expect every resident of this community to be worship-minded on Thanksgiving Day but we believe that there are many ciitixens anxious to7 participate in religious services on the day set apart by Presidential proclamation aa an occasion to return thanks to the Divine Being, ft is impossible to expect all people to agree upon any phase of religious thought but it is essential that those ft suvicfl should find one available on Thanks giving Day. KNOW, AND BE, YOURSELF '? v . : - ? The individual who attempts to at - * be a worthwhile citizen of Any com munity. To know oneself is to un derstand human nature and be sin cere and unaffected in modern so ciety requires unusual character. To young boys and girls of Pitt County, interested in the problems of life, we suggest serious considera tion of these goals. They are also worthy of the attention of older per sons, especially those who are under the impression that they have arriv ed somewhere in the search for what ever they seek in life. ? CHURCHES ?
