THE PEOPLE OF OKLAHOMA SHOULD BE
ESPECIALLY THANKFUL TODAY
As we stand upon our vantcge ground and look l ck
through the vista of voars—
It fills cur heart* with joy to recognize the hand of
<iod leading the race onward and upward.
This is particularly true of those 'those lot has been
cast in America, especially that portion of Amerila
which flings to the breezes the red, white and blue.
In uivir.g thank* to Him who sitteth upon the
throne let us imitate the solemnity and joy of that serv-
ice in heaven.
Thanklea ne" is the characteristic cf the sinful.
it is the fruit of the depraved nature.
I f a parent has suffered the pangs of unrequited lore
and unappreciated sacrifice for a child he may have an,
'nfinite-imal conception of the feelings which a than]#
jess nation and ungrateful individuals bring upon God
Shakespeare put into the mouth of King Lear a truth-
ful expression of thankfulness when he said, "How
eharpcr than a serpent's tooth it is."
Hut thankfulness wells from the hearts of ihe
thoughtful today.
To this degree, at least, our government recognizes
God. in ti'iat a day of thanksgiving is appointed an-
nually to fulfill that duty which is enjmined in the
Scripture, to offer "unto God thanksgiving."
To tfhe proclamation of the president this great na-
tion responds, "Amen!''
The wearv laborer finds a day of soctial enjoyment
with his family and friends;—
The banks arc closed and the whir of active business
ha* ceased for a daw
Why ?
Because of the call of the ciiicf magistrate the people
make grateful acknowledgment of the blessings received
from the Supreme Ruler.
There never was a Thanksgiving day in which it w
not possible to point to many special reasons for gran
tudc above those of former years.
Each year brings increased blessings which demand
the recognition of the goodness and power of God.
So it is this year.
The Lord has given us the sunshine and rain that,
have yielded abundant crops, for our own. and the sus-
tenance of multitudes that live in other countries.
\\ e have been at perfect internal and f8reign peace
There have been no widespread ravishes of disease
and pestilence.
Our institutions have been steadilv preparing our
youth for the work of life.
The churches have been earnestly laboring to prepare
men for life and death.
This day forty-five states extend forty-five glad hands
to Oklahoma as a member of the great family of com
monwealths.
For this a nation is thankful and we should be douh
!y thankful.
Alike, therefore, for temporal and spiritual blessings
as individuals, as a state, and as a nation, is it fitting
that at this time we should offer unto God tliank
giving.
This will be generally observed throughout the nation
as a day of gladness.
Innocent* amusement and joyous conversation rightly
form a part of the celebration of the day, but we must
bp careful not to mistake gladness for thanksgiving.
Tt i.- tinhecominir in one to inflate his conceit with
the idea that he is indebted solely to his own efforts, for
the increased prosperity which he has enjoved du'rine
the year. ***
Nor is it less unbecoming in him who has not been
so fortunate as his neighbor to imagine that the keep-
ing of the wojf from his door was due rather to hi
own exertions than to any favor from God.
Whatever one's circumstances in life, from one ex-
ticme to the other, there can be found manv and suf-
ficient reasons for off, ring unto God thanksgiving.
.T'ie 1 car has brought many afflictions.
They are in the natural order of events, they are
the inevitable to every home and heart.
And perhaps no one while smarting under the chas-
tisement of affliction, rag enter into the spirit of a
l.cariv thanksgiving.
But when a little time has passu?) and the mind and
the nerves have become composed the grace of God will
<nalile one to review the dark days with filings
thanksgiving.
Is there no balm in the sympathy of friends?
No solace in the thought that thus it is witih all the
comfort in tin- precious promises of the
" day in the great scenes of this nation's history? I

mined action for personal security ?

To neither nor to all can justly be ascribed the praise,
inev mre but partial instruments.
The answer is found rather in the fact that God is
the Ruler of all.
And it is because the 'Lord roigneth' tfiat the earth
can and does rejoice.
When we reflect upon the dangers and vicissitudes
through which we have passed, and appreciate our
strcngt.i, health, wealth and prosperity as a nation, wc
can but say, Jehovah will provide.'
The designs of evil ruler* are thwarted by the over-
ruling of Providenro.
Thus it has been again and again in the experience
of this nation.
We are to 'offer unto God thanksgiving' today that'
the interests of this nation are not in the hands of one
man. nor of mj>n of one political erecd. but that God's
omnipotent hand holds the helm of our ship of state
and so long as her mortal crew are obedient to His coi
man,Is.the craft shall sail proudly over safe waters.
He have reason to be grateful that our country ia
essentially Christian.
We have reason to he grateful for our productive
commercial and financial prosperity.
We have reason to be grateful for many elements of
national strength, the home, the public school s.-tcm
and the pulpit.
Let us not cease our thanksgiving, nor withhold ou
songs of praise, for God is with his people, gnidinc
thern in tlhe paths 0f righteousness, inspiring them with
thoughts and precious truths and teaching them the
lessons of love—love for Him and love for folio v n;a
''rainier than ccean's story,
Or songs of forest trees;
Purer than breath of morning
Or evening s gentle breeze.
Clearer than mountain echoes
Ping out from peaks above
Rolls the glorious anthems
Of God's eternal love."

The day will be celebrated by each one according to
his ideas of tJie best mode of expressing gratitude.
Politics for the time being is not the onlv pebble
the beach. Thanksgiving has the call over everything.

OPICS
Fifty years ago the life of the average girl was com-
monplace and dreary to the last degree. She was al-
lowed very little education and was encouraged to be
delicate because it was considered ladvlike. Her one
aim and object in life was to get married, and if she
failed in that she was deeply disgraced and marked
fOQr shame and contempt as an "old maid." Today she
has the high privilege and blessed right of earning her
own living. This makes her independent, and stlie can
remain single until love prompts her to marry. If she
never marries, no one despises her. The "old maid" has
disappeared completely, ami in her place we haive the
breezy, independent, up to date athletic and well-gowned

profession and asks neither pity nor favors from hor

One of the best things that President Koosevelt has
itl is his reply to the ministers who protested against
(he removal of th* legend, '"In God We Trust," from
the roir.s, Roosevelt says that the words were productive
of irreverence and became the occasion of a great
amount of slang when the contest arose over a depreci-
ated currency. Roosevelt is right. There are some people
so fearful that the f>ord Mill be neglected that they
want to lug in by the car and horn a reference to him
on every occasion . Just as the old Spanish soldiers
i:>od to utter a prayer before they entered a town and
massacred all the women and children, or as McCatiltv'-
highwayman, who thanked God wlun he was on the
staffold about to he hanged that he had never passed a
church without pulling off his hat. There is a heap ol
nonsense in this world and Roosevelt punctures a good
deal of it m his reply to the protestors on this "coin
matter.
