Next Thursday the God-fearing, God-loving people of our land
will observe Thanksgiving day. Some might be wondering what
they have t~ be thankful for. To such skeptics it could be said that
they can at least be thankful that their state is no worse than it
may be. However gloomy the prcspect all classes, from the low-
liest to the most exalted, have had blessings during the discourage-
ments of the past two years that they might have been unmindful
of.
In the New York American, of October 29, B. C. Forbes mar-
shals many things for which the people of the United States might
well bow their heads in thankful prayer next Thursday.
“ LEST WE FORGET”
The health of this country never was better.
Adversity unquestionably has had a salutary effect upon our
morals.
Our will to work hard, honestly, conscientiously has been quick-
ened and strengthened.
War has not been waged on our soil in two-thirds of a century
and today we are at peace with the world.
The infinity of our natural resources becomes more clearly estab-
lished year by year.
The productive capacity of the United States exceeds that of
any other country on earth.
The science of management has been mastered more thoroughly
here than in any other land.
The inventive genius of America is unmatched.
The science of management has reached heights not approachd
by any other nation .
Our industrial facilities and efficiency lead the world.
Our transportation and distributive equipment is unexcelled.
We have the greatest storehouse of gold ever accumulated by
any nation.
Our currency
standard.
Our Federal Reserve Bank system is impregnable. Currency
and credit could be expanded by billions without impairing our bank-
ing stability and strength.
Our savings deposits overtop those of every other
excluding the proverbially thrifty French.
American investments, once European and domestic hysteria
has died out, will be recognized as the most desirable on the face of
the globe.
We will attract investment funds and bank deposits from most
corners of the earth.
Our national credit, as well as our national wealth, is the great-
est and best extant.
There are more
countries combined.
American labor admittedly is the most capable and energetic of
all.
Production per man in the United State is far ahead of that of
any other nation.
We are the undisputed leaders in mass production, the secret of
modern industrial dominance.
American management is more responsive to new ideas, new in-
ventions, new machinery, new appliances than management in any
foreign land.
Despite the fact that America has been drawn into the vortex of
world-wide business depression, creating widespread unemployment
here as elsewhere, the American standard of living is the envy of
every other people.
So are the loyal
and employed.
No government is less threatened than ours by Socialistic or
Communistic propaganda or tendencies.
Nowhere else can so large a percentage of the citizenry afford
to give their sons and daughters a college education.
In no other country can so many individuals and families enjoy
the gold dollar—has become the world's supreme
people, not
security owners here than in any other two
relations which rule here between employers
‘up-to-date personal transportation and the broadening benefits of
home and foreign travel.
Under no other governmental and industrial system can or do
so many men and women of humble birth rise to positions of re-
sponsibility, power and wealth.
American philanthropy and generosity are the wonder and envy
of mankind.
Slums are disappearing from this continent.
Nowhere else are such sums voluntarily contributed to ease the
lot of the unfortunate.
The abject poverty prevailing in so many parts of both the Old
World and the New World is scarcely known here.
The masses here are better fed, better clothed, better housed,
better entertained than the masses under any other flag.
We come nearer being a self-contained, self-supporting, self-
sufficient land than any other.
Instead of having reason for discouragement or despair, we
have more profound reason than any other people for thankfulness,
for confidence and for facing the future with buoyant courage and
resolution.
Our greatest prosperity, our greatest achievements, our great-
est power, our greatest progress lie, not behind us, but ahead.
Let us, therefore, cease whining and repining. Let us regain
characteristic American faith and resume characteristic American
energy and daring and initiative,
“Ye shall reap if ye faint not.”
And we add to Mr. Forbes presentation of blessings that many
might be unmindful of this beautiful poem by Robert Davis
I thank Thee, Lord, for strength of arm
To win my bread,
And that beyond my need is meat
For friend unfed.
I thank Thee much for bread to live,
I thank Thee more for bread to give.
I thank Thee, Lord, for snug-thatched roof
In cold and storm,
And that beyond my need is room
For friend forlorn.
I thank Thee much for a place to rest,
But more for shelter for my guest.
I thank Thee, Lord, for lavish love
On me bestowed,
Enough to share with loveless folk
To ease their load.
Thy love to me I ill could spare,
Yet dearer is the love I share.

COMMUNITY CHURCH SERVICE ON
THANKSGIVING
| ving Day will be cele-
brated in Bellefonte with a com-
munity church service in the Evan-
'gelical church, the Rev. A Ward
Campbell, . This service wiil
be held at 10 o'clock Thanksgiving
Day morning, and the sermon will
be preached by the Rev. Horace
Lincoln Jacbos D. D. pastor of the
Methodist church. Other pastors
of Bellefonte will participate in the
service.
According to the custom institu-
ted last year the entire community
will Le given aa opporiunity to ex-
press (hanks 10 Guu in a material
way. Envelopes will be distributed
over the entire town to receive an
offering for the work of the Centre
County hospital, or any other des-
ignated charitable object in Belle-
fonte. Members of St. John's Ro-
man Catholic church will return the
envelopes to their own church; those
associated with St. John's Episcopal
church will take their envelopes to
the parish Thanksgiving celebration,
which will be held in that church on
Thanksgiving morning; members and
friends of the other churches and
those who do not belong to any of
the Bellefonte churches will deposit
their envelopes on the offering plates
send
them to one of the churches on or
before November 28th.
Due to business and industrial
conditions the Centre County hospi-
tal is being compelled to do much
more charity work than the appro-
priation from State funds allows.
The more fortunate citizens will
have to come to the rescue to pre-
vent a serious deficit in the funds
of this meritorious institution. The
sick must be cared for and a liberal
thank offering will help in this good
work. Those who wish to contri-
bute to some other charitable fund
will find a blank on the envelope,
where such an allocation of their
gift can be noted, and such funds
will be turned over promptly to the
organizations in charge.

Litt. D. DD., Bishop of Harrisburg,
will make his first visit to Saint
John's parish this Sunday. The
