TfianlgMcig Day
CENTL'ItY ago, the
celebration of Thanks
giving day was con
fined to New England.
Even had it been the
national holiday It Is
today, the struggling
young republic of the
United Shates In the
year of grace 1814 would have feasted
on turkey and trlmralngB without en
thusiastic thanks, for the nation was
In the gloomy midst of the second war
with Great Britain and It had migniy
little to be thankful for. The capital
had been caDtured by the invaders
and the public buildings at Washing
ton had been put to the torch, vv nne
the llttlo American navy hod won
wonderful vlctSrles against great odds
and written a chapter in history that
makes our blood ,thrlll with admira
tion, yet Great Britain, with its bltf
fleets, was still mistress of the seas
and American commerce ceased to
exist. On land the American army.
rent with dinsentlons and generalod by
political Incompetents, made a record
of humiliating defeats, the sting of
which was to be removed in 1S15 by
the signal victory of Jackson and his
backwoodsmen over the tried veterans
of Pakenham at New Orleans. Pol
itical animosities flamed at a white
heat unknown today. Sectional feel
ing was high and bitter. The national
treasury was practically empty. Grass
crew in the streets of the cities and
shipping rotted at the wharves. Busi
ness and Industry were paralyzed and
the nation tottered on the verge of
bankruptcy. The collapse of the
young republic with Its Ave or six
million people scattered over an Im
mense territory, was freely predicted,
now that England's hands were loosed
by the fall of Napoleon.
Only In New England In 1811 was
ThankBglvlng day observed, and even
In the ancient birthplace of the holi
day It Is safe to say that the celebra-,
tlon was far from being the Joyous
feast of the past. For New England
as a whole had a big, bitter grouch
and didn't care who knew It. The
New England states were fiercely hos
tile to the war and had been hardest
hit by Its effects. Its commerce, the
chief Eonrco of Its wealth, had been
completely destroyed by Jefferson's
embargo law and the blockade or us
ports by the British fleet. Its militia
were not permitted to serve Deyona
the borders of Now England, and the
leaders and a great part of the popu
lace openly nnd warmly advocated
secession from the Union either as an
Independent republic or as an Eng
lish province or colony. Under such
circumstances, Thanksgiving In New
Encland In 1814 took a somber and
more religious cast while the Thanks
giving sermons, once a significant fea
ture of the day, were shaJowed by
gloom and saturated with pessimism.
It wns under conditions ns Inaus
picious ns these that the homegather-
ing feast of old New England was usn-
ered In. How profound the change
wrought by a century In the life of the
Hennhlic! Thnnksglvlng day, this
year, will be observed by almost if
not quite a hundred minion people,
the citizens of a great and prosper
ous nation, the richest In tho world
and the most powerful ever conceived
In the loins of time, A century ago,
the day was observed by not quite a
million nnd half New Engenders
alone amid gloom, uncertainty, appre-
hension and poverty following the
Bell Threatened Destruction
An alarming occurrence took place
when the congregation at St Will-
Jam's clinch, Rochdale road, Man
chester (Eng.) were assembling re
cently for service. During the ringing
of the bell, which is said to wolgn
about fifteen hundredweight, a dull,
heavy thud was heard In the vicinity
of the belfry. An examination showed
that the boll, the to.ie of which had
been suddenly hushed, had DroKen
No Such Thlna Untalented.
In the Woman's Home Companion
Anne Bryan McCall, wrltlns a Tower
Room talk entltlod "The Talented
Girl," said that "strictly speaking
there are no untalented people." She
continues In part as follows: "When
we envy the gifts of others we do
but forget our own. You may tell
me what you please about your life be

ravages of war. A ceutury ago, the
Federal Union was an experiment In
government that. In the winds of
ninx, was foredoomed to failure.
There was no nation; rather a loose
confederation of hostile sections and
Jealous states. It was out of the
struggles and sufferings of this very
war that the American nation was
born. Today, 100,000.000 Americans,
In Identity of political and social
Idenls, language and Institutions, pre
sent a picture of the moBt thoroughly
nationalized country of which history
hus record. ,
But in a hundred other ways did
the Thanksgiving of 1814 differ from
the one to be celebrated this year.
Of course there were the funda
mental essentials of turkey, pumpkin
pie and cranberry sauce; there were
the homegatberlng of relatives aud
the reunion of the family around the
old hearthstone. But beyond that all
has changed with the passage of the
fleeting years. Could a boy or a girl
of today, by some ledgerdemaln of
time, be transported back to one of
those old fashioned Thanksgiving day
of a century ago, he or she would
think they were being robbed of their
holiday rights. Even the wealthiest
people of those old days could not
have on their Thanksgiving table
many of the things found today on
the tables of the humblest citizen.
In fact, there was a great poverty
of vegetable variety on the Thanks
giving table a century ago. No as
paragus, no sweet potatoes, no string
beans, no corn, no green peas, and so
on down the attractive list that consti
tutes the appetizing trimmings of the
Thanksgiving tuble of today. The tin
can era had not yet dawned, and Its
possibilities of smashing seasonable
monotony wore undreamed of even by
epicures.
And there was the same poverty In
Thunksglvlng fruit The list practi
cally started and ended with apples
and of a kind that most farmers now
feed only to their hogs or leave to
rot on the ground. Grapefruit was a
word not yet Invented; oranges would
have been worth their weight In gold;
and the banana was to await many
years for Its Introduction to the
American housewife. Nor would It
have been possible for the voracious
youngster of that day to gorge him
self with luscious grapes and delicate
raisins. Pineapple was another un
known word. Of course there were
nuts, but only of native varloties.
Almonds, Brazil nuts, peenns and the
English walnuts, without which no
Thanksgiving table of today would be
considered complete, were then un
known luxuries.
Tho farmer of that day was a slave
of tho season and the produce of his
toll was governed strictly by the cal
endar. There were no hothouses to
force fruit and vegetables out of sea
son. The good people of those days
would have considered It almost Bacrl
lege, an attempt to Improve on the
divine plan of things. A request for
strawberries or cucumbers at Thanks
giving would be equivalent to an ap
plication for admission to an asylum
for tho InBane.
But the difference does not end with
a comparison of the eatables of the
feast a century ago and today. It is
even more startling when we com
pare the tusk of preparation now and
then. The good housewife of 1914. If
called upon to get up a Thanksgiving
feast with the utensils and under the
away from Its bearings, and was rest
ing upon a wooden beam, which pre
vented It crashing through the roof
into the church. The church was
quickly cleared, and the Are brigado
was summoned, with a view of restor
ing the bell to Its fastenings, and so
remove the threatening danger. With
the aid of the Are escape thoy reached
the belfry, but were unable to render
the services sought, nothwItbBtandlug
unglfted, let us be sure It Is only be
cause we have allowed our natural
gifts to be uncultivated. 'We are nobly
born,' says Stevenon, with his charac
teristic pride and Insight; and then,
with his characteristic thoughtfulness,
he ndds, 'Fortunate those who know;
blessed those who remember.'"
Took the Hint '
"Philander," said the pretty girl to
her baBhful beau. "1 wish you'd tie
this ribbon at my throat. I can't see
to do It without a glass." "Of course;
kitchen conditions of 1814, would
throw up her hands In despair, and If
the task was put up to the average
servant of today would Jump her Job
in an Instant. The hardworking
housewife of a century ago, had
neithor range nor cook stove. They
had not yet been invented. Her tur
kev and her nles were baked In the
great fireplace, and her fuel was wood,
for coal was not yet UBed.
If relatives were to be Invited to
Thanksgiving homegatherlngs In those
old days, the invitations would have
to be dispatched weeks and perhaps
months In advance of the event, for
It required the best part of a week
for a letter to travel from Boston to
New York, as long a time, In fact,
as It now takes to cross the conti
nent. Were It addressed to Chicago,
a mere trading poBt at that time, It
would be sent the previous July. And
the Invitation Itself would be written
with a quill and blotted with sand,
for in those dayn there were no steel
pens, no typewriters, no blotters, no
gummed envelopes, no postage stamp's.
And the son or daughter In the
city who wished to return to the old
homestead for Thanksgiving In 1814
faced an ordeal before which most of
us today would quail. For traveling
a century ago was a hazard and a
peril. The railroad was at that time
undreamed of, and all inland travel
was by river or road.
If a man on his way to a Thanks
giving feast at the old homestead In
the country was thrown from bis
horse In the road, breaking a leg or
arm, his case was one to be pitied.
For most of the doctors of those days
were Ignorant and careless. If ampu
tation was necessary, the victim was
generally held dnwr by main strength
while saw and kmfe cut their agon
izing way through the tortured flesh
and bone. For 1814 was before the
days of anesthetics. Ether, chloro
form, cocaine and morphine were as
yet unknown, and as for antiseptics,
the protection against germ Infection
of the wound, that was to wait for
more than fifty years. There was
no quinine, no strychnine, no tinc
ture of Iron, no carbolic acid In fact,
there were scarcely any of the com
mon and familiar drugs of today.
There was no pepsin for that Thanks
giving indigestion, and a cold or a
toothache was a thing to bo dreaded.
In literally millions of homes on
Thursday, the Thanksgiving dinner
will be preliminary to a visit to a
football game or a theater, things
Impossible to the sturdy stock of
1814. In fact, the religious feast ot
our grondslres has become to a large
and growing extent a part of a sport
ing and amusement holiday In which
real Thanksgiving, In the sense of
the origin of the day, Is conspicuous
by Its absence. Nevertheless, when
a person stops to think about It,
comparing the material comfortB of
today with those of a century ago,
considering the marvelous growth of
the republic In wealth and prosperity,
the wonderful advancement of educa
tion, science and knowledge there
are many profound reasons why this
annual feast of ours should be pre
ceded by a moment, at least, of sol
emn and reverent thankfulness.

and in many a
happy moment their chief Joy.
(1) There is a kind of certainty
about this text that gives it a pe
culiar value. "We know that all
things work together for good." It
is not a surmise but a conviction;
not a conclusion based merely upon
the testimony of others, but a pos
session of our own experience. We
know It from the word of God, and we
would rather trust that than our own
understanding. We know It Indeed
from tho very nature of the case, for
given the existence of a God, holy.
Just, all-powerful and good, It must
be as the text says. To deny It is to
deny God. We know It from the bis
tory of the world and of mankind
whose panes are Illuminated with Us
truth, but especially do we know U
from the record of our own lives. If
we are true Christian men and wom
en, we can look back over the past
year In all Its vicissitudes and set
our seal to it as fact.
(2) There is a universality in the
range of the text which gives It a
peculiar value. "We know all things
works together for good." What
measureless compass there is In that
declaration! In the mind of the In
spired writer, the "all things" as In
dlcnted by the context, are very espe
dally "the sufferings of this preS'
ent time;" but there Is no reason
why we may not employ the language
In the broadest and mos,t comprehen
Hive sense. Things known and things
unknown, defeats and victories, losses
and gains, the small and the large,
all are working together for good to
them that love God. It la easy to be
lieve this when all Is prosperous and
happy, but faith clings to it when
the clouds lower and the storms rage.
It Is that which distinguishes the
Christian from the mnu of the world.
(3) There Is a sense of divine ac
tivity in the text. "All things work
together for good." God does not al
low things to come to pass by chance,
but has an arrangment in everything,
a plan, a purpose bringing forth ef
fects. He Is continually subverting
and conserving, scattering and bring
ing together, in order that he may
find stones to polish for a temple Into
which he may enter and permanently
abide.
(4) Then think cf the harmony ex
pressed "all things work together
for good." There Is no discord or
opposition In the heavenly counsels,
though we may not always perceive
this with our eyes of flesh. Like Han
nah More's dialogue of the two
weavers, we may sometimes think
that
The good ore troubled ami ipircsned,
And all the wicked are the bleeaod.
But when we reach that world of IIkH
And view these works of God aright,
Then bIib.1I we see the whole design.
And own the work Is all divine.
nut finally, it is the particularity of
thla text that, we need moBt to dwell
upon. It Is 'to "Them That Love
God," and to them only, that all
things work together for good. But
men in their natural state do not
lovo God, nor can they love him.
There must be created within them
the clenn heart and renewed within
'them the right spirit before they can
love God. And this is God's own
work In them, which he does when
they believe his testimony concerning
his 6on, Jesus Christ. Have you done
this? Have you yet by faith received
Christ os your Savior and confessed
him as your Lord? There was a time
when Paul who wrote these words,
did not himself love God, though he
was very religious and very active In
his rellnlon. But one day he Baw
Christ In the glory and submitted
himself to him, and all this was
changed. He then loved God because
hn had come to know that God first
loved him and sent his son to be the
propitiation for his sins.
And so this text gives us fauis
own testimony. He had had a won
derful life especially after hla remark
able conversion. Read his own de
scription of It In Second Corinthians
from Chapter 11, Verse 21 to Chap
ter 12, Verse 12, and see what It must
have meant to him to utter such
words os these. In everything had
he seen the hand of God so vividly
and the most unpromising circum
stances redound to his own good,
that no mathematical proposition
could have been more clearly demon
strated to him tha this.

and afflicted. lea. 63:4.
Last Sunday we saw Jesus on trial
before Gentile power. Today s lesson
brings us to the central event of his
saving mission to men. We must
read all four1 accounts of this event
attentively, reverently, humbly, for it
cannot be treated even as other
events In the life of our Lord.
I. The Procession to Calvary, v. 21.
Twas a physically exhausted Christ
that loft the Judgment hall. A night
of vigil, mocking, buffeting and with
out food since the previous evening
left blm too weak to bear the cross.
Then- it was that a son of Africa,
Simon of Cyrene, was "impressed" to
bear the burden. The Romans da
mnnded that the victim bear his own
cross. He accepted the human help,
but refused the aid of the drug, Matt.
27:34. Luke gives us at this point the
Incident of the weeping woman. Mark
15:23 seems to Indicate that Jesus had
to be assisted to the place of the
cross.
On the Cross.
II. The Place, Calvary, vv. 22-27.
Here we see him, the brightness of
God's glory and the express Image of
his person, the Incarnation of truth, in
whom dwelt the fullness of the God
head bodily "crucified." Sin has done
its worst. The Scriptures are fulfilled,
Ps. 22:16, Zech. 12:10. It was neces
sary for our salvation that he should
die exactly as he did, Gal. 3:10, 13;
John 3:14; Deut. 21:23. Even tha
parting of his garments was prophe
sied, Ps. 22:18. The presence of two
malefactors had also been foretold,
Iso. 63:9, 12.
III. The Passers-by at Calvary, vv.
29-32. The people and the priests
Joined in heaping scorn upon him.
Even those that were crucified with
him "reproached him." Yet he loved
them all. There seem to have been
no gibes for the two thieves, John
15:19, II Tim. 3:12. The cry of the
mob now "save thyself" (v. 30).
'Twas spoken In mockery, but they
snoke a truth, nevertheless: It was
necessary for the good shepherd to
give his life for the sheep, John 10:11,
and by no means to use his power in
saving himself. They did not believe
on him after the resurrection of Laza
rus; Is It to be believed that they
would have accepted him had he
"saved himself?" To have saved him
self would have been for him to take
himself out of the hands of God an
act of disobedience.
IV. The Person on Calvary, vv. 33.
40. In the midst of this awful scene,
in the confusion or the mingled cry
of the mob, there Is sounded one note
of triumph. As Jesus was thus "lifted
up from the earth" (John 12:32), one
of those, his companions, ceased to
revile him. and cried out, "Art thou
the Christ?" and, to be literal, "If so,
save us." The other seems to have
had his vision cleared, for he rebukes
his fellow criminal by saying that
their condemnation was a Just reward
for their deeds. Turning to Jesus he
exclaims, "Remember me ... In thy
kingdom." The answer was imme
diate and significant, "Today Shalt
thou be with me In paradise." This
Is a graphic Illustration of the whole
meaning and symbolism of the cross.
In his undying hour the Savior of men
loosed this sinner from his sins and
granted him the right to fellowship
with him in the life beyond.
Jesus hung upon the cross three
hours,
Bearing shnme and scoffing rude.
In my plnce condemns! lie stood
fcVnlod my pardon with hi blood.
Hullolujuh what a savior.
His Faith Triumphant.
Then God drew the curtain, for even
he could not look upon that scene (II
Cor. 5:21; Heb. 1:13). We do not
believe the eclipse theory, but rather
that God caused the darkness, anoth
er Illustration of tho closeness of man
and nature. Rom. 8:20, 21 R. V. The
dying cry, "My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me," wns uttered when
Jesus sensed the full and complete
realization of being separated from
the Father. Death Is not annihilation,
but separation, and Jesus was sepa
rated from God tho Father because of
our sins, Isn. 53:6. Yet In that terri
ble moment his faith does rot waver,
for he cries, "My God." Conscious of
his personal Innocence, but Buffering
for the sins of others, his faith Is
triumphant.
This lesson suggests that all who
study it yield themselves to a search
ing self-examination. Such a manifes
tation of divine love should call forth
our utmost confidence and our un
questioned trtiBt In our divine redeem
er. The revelation ot the enormity of
man's sin as Been on Calvary ought
to fill us with an uncompromising
hatred of Bin. The story of tha Sa
vior's sufferings ought to Impel us to
a constant conflict with sin.
Those who witnessed tho event of
that day Baw him "stricken, smitten,"
