From Amerious thousands of ex pressions of gratitude will go up from thankful souls to the Heav- euly Father for the countless liless- lngs showered upon them durlug the past year. And are these not countless? The world is grateful for uni versal bloaalngs. Our own dear Union for many particular bless ings. Tne fair Southland for man ifold showers of blessings. Geor gia for especial blessings among theso, and our own olty, the Queen city of all,forblesBlnga upon blessings, and still more blesslnge. Hero we aro with the most de lightful, healthy and Invigorating climate under the sun. Natural advantages so numerous that half has nover been told. Prosperity In every line in a manner unheard of in the aunalB of growth and prog ress. A people cousplcuous for honesty, morality, enterprise, lib erality, perseverance, energy and full of love for humanity. All and more. An even general list of onr bless ings above every other section or city on the globe would fill a vol ume. Bufficlont to say we have been wonderfully blessed, and are grate ful. On next Thursday this gratitude will be expressed. Tho merchants have already agreed to close their doors and give their employees au opportunity to give thanks in any way they choose, It will truly bo a day of thanks giving, for we know we are blessed. Hut hero a thought enters of the poor. How will they spend tho the day? Will they seat them selves to a dinner luxurious with good things? Will they have as muchcaueo, and will they feel ae much like giving thanks as those able to have their turkey? Then let the good people get to work, and make thorn have abund ant reason for blessing the day set apart for giving thanke. Let them begin to-day and to morrow, and give to the destitute things to satisfy their hunger and make their hearts bound with Joy. Next Thursday Is tho day, and three working days are left for our Ottlzens noted for their kind heart- ednoss and generosity to prepare and arrange everything. That there are many around us suffering almost tor the necessities of life caunot bo doubted. That their tablos will be almost bare next Thursday la equally true, and what • blessing it would be for them if our good people provide them with edibles substantial, and that for one day at least would let them know what a good meal Is. Much trealmeut would be In keep ing with the nature and nsual ac tion of our citizens, and all that Is necessary to gladden scores of hearts and homes Is for some good man or woman to take the lead. Who will dolt? Bpeak at once, and start the ball rolling to-morrow. Don’t put It off, but lete’s make the next Thanksgiving day one which will be a bright spot in tho lives of the destitute, aud a day wheu a perfect oceau of heartfelt thanks will be poured from happy souls.
