Let Us be Thankful. ^
tl
By proclamations of tho chief V
exenctives of the State und t f the 1
nation next Thursday is a day set
for public thanksgiving. It is ^
the one day in the 305 thst is pe- ^
culiarly dedicated to a public ex- j.
preesion of grutefuloese to God ^
for Hie goodness and bounty. It
ia fit that all good jpeople should ^
join in the observance and parti- ,
cipate in the spirit of the day.
Ae a whole, the neonle of ^
r . " p
South Carolina have reason for
n
wore than u?ual thanksgiving. ^
The state has made progress materially,
educationally and spiritu- ^
ally. It lms been blessed with ^
, prosperity; the fields have yielded
abundantly of their harvest: the ^
8
seasons have been propitious; the
crops have given satisfactory returns
and the farmers from which !
b
class flows the prosperity of all
the other classes?have enjoyed j.
an nnusually successful year.
Tha one great cr?p of the State? ^
King Cotton?has been 6afelv
gathered and the profits have
been reasonable,indicating a satisfactory
condition of stability
without any symptom of speculative
or "boora" values. With ^
the prosperity of the farmer has b
com* the prosperity, in varying ai
degrees, of the othor branches of tl
business?the tradesman, the ar- i'
S
tisan, tbo professional tuun. For (
this material prosperity we should 0,
be grateful ;we should offer thanks- n
giving to Him who sends tho
rains or the sunshine, who causes q
the crcd to burst from its shell, to
grow into its maturity and at last
to yield its harvest to man. It y
is God's work. j(
Educationally, spiritually, and n
in all the things pertaining there- 81
to, South Carolina has also, we Ql
trust and believe, made progress. ^
New schools have been erected,old -Xl
ones have been improved. More
children are in attendance upon
these schools. In the realm of
higher education satisfactory B|
progress has been made; the eol- v

exception, reported greatly in- ?
created attendanee. The citizens a
are more than ever aronaed to the h
seed of an educated generation of jj
yuuug men and young women.
The eeede of oduoational progresa
are sown and the results
may be awaited with confidence
and hope. Suroly for such ^
a condition, for the awakening of ^
such a spirit, for the stimulation 8
of a sentiment which means so c
much for the future of the state *
SouthCarolinans every where,from *
the mountains to the seashore, 1
from the east to the west, should 0
pour out thanksgiving.
With the educational advance
haa come its fellow?spiritual ad- 0
ranee. Public evils are loss flagrant.
Outbreaks, against law
and moralitj have been decried
with more effect. Public opinion
has been more uncompromising
In its condemnation of crime and
disorder. The public pulse bas
beat traer; the forces of civilised
government have been more assertive
. The public mind is be- <
eoming saner, healthier, more
wholesome and more respecting
of the laws of man and God. W e
have much to thank God in this
progression, bat the goal is yet
afar. There is still a great work
to be done.
Personally, we hare each of ua
much cause for thanksgiving.
There is none so poor or unfortuBale
that his or her plight might
not be worse. We are all blessed
in a degree. If you are poor,
thank God that you are not poorer.
Jf you are sound in body and I 1
mind, thank God that you are; if
you are sick are in pain,thankGod
that you are not worse, and think
of those who are more sick and
more painful. If you are in sorrow,
remember that the world is J
ill of sorrow and tint there are
lOse who arc mme sorrowful llrnn
ou. However poor, however ?ori-wful
or iic:i I Wy troubles and
Mictions, however marked by
lisfortune, there aro those whc
ave even greater burdens to beai
hank God for your station ir
ife, whatever it be Thank Got
or the world about us.
And on Thanksgiving day sai
otne thankful word, do some
bunkful deed. Kemeniber the
ioor and the alllioted. lu tin
