MtLVDf DIXON (Ed. Ne: This juest editorial by member ot the Ministerial Association Is presented In the wtm " lUhed ot having a minuter write an edltoral at the time of aome of our holidays). For several centuries Americans have celebrated f"n Intended as special observance for the expression of our frail tude to Almighty God for His bounteous mercies. In all history, I doubt whether any ration hat been o affluent, saturated with unprecedented mundane b esslncs. There has developed In our culture, however, a creeping am nesia; the sense and acknowledgement of our gratefulness dim Intshtng In Inverse ratio to that which we possess. U t too easily have forgotten from Whom this all has come! You and I have nothing apart from the directive or permissive will ot Cod. And especially during this Thanksgiving season, may our gratitude rrystallze Into something we do! Giving Thanks Is something more than a murmur of the lips or a vague feeling of satisfaction for the things that we have but a purposeful direction of the heart: body. mind, and soul: the Intellect, volition, and emotions, offering praise to the Lord for His goodness. Thanksgiving is something we do! For Instance: The moments of "grace- prior to the sumptuous dinner. (Every meal Is a miniature Thanksgiving when pre ceded by our prayer). The overflow from the souls depths for home and family, and tender relationships. If life Is any other than this, it Is not God's fault His transforming power can enable us to live the -abundant life." for which we can be grate fuL and thereby commit ourselves to the redemption through Jesus Christ our Lord. Good food In the midst of the world 1 1 want, shelter in the time of storm, adequate clothing for our bodies, the measure of health we enjoy, for life itself, for special Divine Providence In countless ways words fall me to properly enumerate further blessings. ...... All of this calls for a response In rededlcation of our ery souls to Him who has made our nation great, because Thanks giving Is really something we do! . Charles Stork. American educator and writer has accordingly expressed his gratitude: God. You have been too good to me, You don't know what you've done. A clod's too small to drink In all The treasure of the sun. The pitcher fills the lifted cup And still the blessings pour They overbrim the shallow rim With cool refreshing store. You are too prodigal with Joy, Too careless of Its worth, To let the stream with crystal gleam Fall wasted on the earth. Let many thirsty lips draw near And quaff the greater part! There still will be too much for me To hold in one glad heart Have a Joyful and grateful Thanksgiving! Memn w. Dixon " - 4.

Every time It blows on Monday the C of C members rush to the Wagon Wheel to be fed. Strangely enough. It didm blow Monday for some reason, and the poorest attendance was on hand of any in the past sev eral months with only 19 out!
