THE DAY AND ITS OBJECT.
Traditionally, this is Thanksgiving
Day; a day set apart, by law, federal,
state and church, for such expression of
realization and gratitude as the ordinary
citizen may feel for those things that
have come to him during the preceding
year. Practically, it is a mere halting
moment for the balancing of the good
and bad; the weighing of the chance
that is left one; the advantages that
have been improved; the opportunities
that have been lost; the casting of new
plana or the amendment of old ones;
these things, and, incidentally, the eat
ing of an undue amount of exceptionally
good things. To the devoted church
man it means more, of course; he gets
the additional pleasure of the religious
observance instituted centuries ago, and
enjoys his privileges to the utmost.
At all events, it is a day charged with
unescapable thought; and to this extent
it is of great value. All typical holidays
have this accented quality. Christinas
carries its wonderful and beautiful sug
gestions, based on the fundament of
human salvatio! The Fourth of July
tirs the spirit of patriotism and evokes
the noblest sentiment of civic duty and
loyal obligation! New Year's Day, Wash
ington's birthday, Labor Day, all are op
portune, replete with high inspiration
and hold out their especial lesson to
man, careless and wilfully indifferent, in
his haste to make more dollars, or
achieve better place.
We cannot help thinking, however,
bilities that would excel this scheme;
and it can be worked in to the plans at,
comparatively, small additional cost.
