NEWS OF INTEREST IN THE — SOCIAL REALM Thanksgiving Thoughts By Ralph Methvin Thompson I’m thankful for each cloud of woe, Which may have dimmed my human sky, And darkened this old earth below With griefs my frame could not defy; For had the mocking rains not spurned And drenched me in the gloom apart, My eyes could never have discerned The glory of a sun-lit heart. I’m thankful for each storm of doubt, Which may have swept about my head, To put the faith in me to rout; And rend the courage which I plead; For had the tempests not essayed To lash the spirit I control, My lips could never have portrayed The rainbow of a proven soul. I’m thankful for each flood of hate, Which may have raged within my breast, To scourge me when disconsolate, And toss my bosom in unrest; For had the waters never S -.-r .* So wildly from the slopes-above,- *"' 1 My mortal ark could not have knojyp s The Ararat of perfect love.
