‘THE BOX THAT CAME IN FROM
FRANCE."
Tlio day was dark and the rain came
down ■
Like tears from a sky of slate,
On a station drear in a country town—
And the 4:45 was late..
As tho vagrant train drew in I heard
The hiss of the roaring steam,
And tho grind of tho biting, clinging
brakes,
And a sob that was more a scream j
And tho shade of a broken form I saw
With outstretched arms advance
To the car abend where tender hands
Unloaded a box from Franco.
Tho head was bowed and the lips were
pressed
To tho folds of the flag it boro,
Ab tho heart poured forth its sobbing
grlof,
While tho weeping clouds pnssed o’er;
But nover a thought to tho storm gave
she,
As hold in raptured trance,
A mother’s tenrs fell with the rain
On tho box that cnino in from France.
I knew that a bettor man than I
Slept under his flag and mine;
And the glory glvon the damponod folds
Scorned nearly n thing dlvino
As tho mothor claimed hor own at last,
Nor know by word or a glance
There was over a thing in tho wholo,
whole world
But tho box tliut enmo in from France.
Oh, tho day was dark and tho rain camo
down,
But a hnlo wns all about
Tho station small in a country town
Whon tho 4:45 pulled out.

THANKSGIVING SHOULD MEAN
MORE THAN MERE
GRATITUDE.
It Is to be regretted that tho beautiful
and appropriate custom of observing it
day of Thanksgiving had becomo asso
ciated with an abundance of material
things. If crops lmvo been bountiful, if
tho harvest has been great, if thero has
been an ovorflow of tho "good” things
of earth, and if the times huvo lioen
pcacofu), reasons for thanksgiving are
supposed to increase correspondingly.
Tboro is something iu tho outward tra
dition of Tlmuksglvlng that would appear
to justify this stressing of tho iinpor
tanco of material things; hut thero* is
also something in the roni Thanksgiving
that'would demand tho stressing of othnr
things, demand tho placing of omplmsis
upon spiritual mnttors rather than upon
conditions which pertain Bololy to the
physical well bolng of man.
Tho ronl Thanksgiving demands a feel
ing of deep appreciation for whatever
has como, tho acceptance "with equal
thanks” of tho good fortune or tho bud
fortuno of provious mouths. This Thanks
giving is essentially an intornnl thing—
it enn bp observed regardless of what
ouo hud for dinner that day, and its ob
servance is an affair that hIiouIiI bo open
to tho rieli and the poor of tho earth..
It mny well bo. that Home, on this day
of tnking stock and expressing gratitude
for blessings, can find littlo of good tlmt
has i-oino to thorn us the world counts
good. But these art) tlio ones for whom
Thanksgiving may hold tho doopost real
ity. Those may say:
"Lord, for life, its love, its hope, its
interest, its opportunity for service;
for tho groat and durable satisfactions
of living that center about homo and
work; for deep and abiding lUomuriuB of
joy that bereavement, has brought into
sharp relief; for nil those blessings limy
I bh truly thankful.”
To tliis prayer may bo addod by those
in prosperity:
"Ami may I bo mindful lost in tlio ex
cess of good tilings I becomo self cen
tered and forgot my, obligations to my
follow-mou. ’ ’
l O I II.
DUAL SOURCES OF BLESSING.
Dotroit Free Press,
Tho sources of blessing nro dual and
the spirit of thanksgiving should bo di
rected in two ways. For in tho Chris
tian theory, the Author of lifo chooses
nover to work singly, but rather to hon
or the good will of moil in bringing to
pnss nil tilings for which mon nro prompt,
fid to be thnnkfui.
Such a realization on Thanksgiving
day must lmvo a wholesome influence
upon our thought mid the resolutions
wo form toward future purposes. For
truo gratitude is more than an expres
sion ; it. is a prompting. *
Wo are grateful for peace, but we
cr.nnot bettor oxpross thpt gratitude
than by contributing with -flno self-con
trol and frlondly of flees to increase har
mony whorover our influence may reach,
Wo arc grateful for political stability
and elections without disaster or turmoil
our gratitude should strengthen our pur
poses to achieve more Hourly tlio ideals
of purity in polities and iu government.
Wo are grateful that by contrast with
unfortunate peoples of other lands our
linos have been oast in happy placos,
But our gratitude will bo of poor frui
tion if it suggests no sacrifices which
wo must make to relievo thoso in dis
trass.
Therein lies the true spirit of Thanks
giving.
o
HAPPINESS MUST BE SHARED.
It is ouo of the laws of life that we
cannot truly enjoy anything from which
our brother is excludod. Wo do not
know how much of this sharing is going
on. But this Thnuksgiving as wo gather
about our board to enjoy ono of tho
descendants of those 40-pound "turkeys
which sallied gaily past tho doares” it
will warm our hearts to remember only
this one instance which will be taking
place, as iisual this year. Tho scene of
it is in u famous street in tho heart of
New York’s underworld. Outsido tho
great building early in tlio forenoon the
line begins to form, until by midday it
is thousands long, mid wlion tlio doors
are finnlly thrown open, each man takes
‘his tray and is served with roast turkey
mashed potato, cranberry sauce and
mince pie and coffee in exchange for
nickel! The down and outer, the vic
tim of adversity—whoever comes—is
fed. The room, ns big as it is, will
not 1 accommodate them all, but one
■crowd rapidly gives place to another, and
do all are taken care of. This happens
fivery year because there is one man of
-wealth whose heart is filled with Thanks
giving. You will know of others. So
: let us all rejoice aq^ givq^, thanks for
tho spirit which ,ia piUiin Us.
