I Kings 17:14. Thanksgiving Thoughts The people of Hertford will soon be observing Thanksgiving Day, in accordance with American custom and while the world outlook is un happy there are many reasons for us to be thankful to the Creator we worship. j Life is precious to every individual and, as a beginning for 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 rela tionship 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 l the jpasfcj. 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 is often enjoyed without a careless thought as to the source and strength of our way of life. Strongly challenged, as it is today, our conception ' of man's place in na- i ture belongs to the ages and shall I endure if the men and women of the I present are courageous in faith and, intelligent in action. On Thanksgiving Day reverent : Americans look with faith to God, ' giving testimony to their belief in a , Supreme Being, interested in the welfare of men and the development j of saints. It is a religious day of, deep emotion, too often disregarded i for lesser interests as individuals j seek to escape from every day trials. ' Unfortunately, the churches of the land sometimes take the lead in the 1 "black out" of Thanksgiving Day as a religious occasion and, for the con venience of 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 be lieve that there are many citizens anxious to participate in religious services on the day set apart by Presidential proclamation as an oc casion to return thanks to the Di vine Being. It is impossible to ex pect all people to agree upon any phase of religious thought but it is essential that those . who desire a Thanksgiving service should find one available on Thanksgiving Day.
