THANKSGIVING DAY.
jf; To-day marks the 183d anni
r versary of a day set apart each
W year for the giving of thanks to
k-' Almighty God for liis mercies
t and blessings during the pre
f <ceding twelve months. His
y tory tells us that tit first
Thanksgiving day was simply
* a harvest thanks giving, the
custom originating with the Pil
grim Fathers, who, in tlii* man
ner gave thanks for abundant
harvests. The jcustom was kept
up from time to time, and grad
r Vplly spread throughout the eu
tire country, until in 1770 and
J1788 respectively, the Episcopal
and Catholic churches formally
recognized the authority of the
civil government to appoint a
day for feasting and prayer
. lull thanks.
The history of Thanksgiving
4ay is most interesting, but is
&oo long for repetition here.
Suffice it to say that it was not
tintil 1863 that the Presidents
fcave annualtly issued proclama
tions, appointing the last Thurs
day in November as Thanksgiv
ftng-day.
Coming on down the years,
mnd to this day, it is eminently
fitting and appropriate th*t out
people should give th.nks to the
<Giver of all good lor the beuefits
And blessings showered upon us
<duriug the season just, closing.
Saving been blessed with abun
<dant harvests and good j -rices,
and except in rare ins traces,
jgood health, it is right that. He
-who gave it all should receive all
; praise.
As to ourselves, we hope that
?? have submitted with a fairly
.bumble spirit tochastisemunt by
3Him in the shape of bodily afflic
tion and financial stress, being
Ifully convinced that in His own
jgood time lie would roll back
Abe cloudy, and let the glorious
sun light of health and piospori
' shine upon us.. This faith in
fthe All-giver has not been disap
pointed. While during the year,
"we passed almost through the
Valley of the Shadow of Death,
?e felt that the Supreme Arbiter
of human destiny had other work
.for us to do, and wore not afraid.
Join with us then, friends, in
?earifest, heart felt thanks for
biestiings received . during the
lattt yoar. To tliose whom the
.Fatlier in His wisdom, has laid
Abe heavy hand o * affliction and
?orrow, we say, take our motto;
?"This also shall pass away,"
And in humbleness and contrite
viess of -heart, iay your troubles
*>n thfrs'Tlianksgivung day in full
^confidence of their alleviation,
before Him whodoeth all tilings
twell.

to emphasize in this issue the
