For What Have We to Be Thankful? This is a year in which cynics may be tempted to ask: What have we to be thankful for on our day of national thanks giving? The war is over, it is true, but many veterans who re turned from one or the other battlefronts have not been able to find a home for their families and themselves. The relationship of management and labor has been marked by bitter strife and prolonged conflict. Production has fallen far behind anticipated schedules. Laving costs have risen sharply. Political office holders have proven inept. Moral standards have left much to be desired. The international scene is uninviting. The outlook for the future is none too promising. What, in the face of such facts, is there to call forth expressions of gratitude? The words above were pub lished in The Pulpit at Thanks giving time, 1946, but they are equally pertinent in this year 1948, when this lesson is being written. Here are the mercies pointed out by Mr. Geiseman for which we should give thanks. “Once again God has given us an abundant harvest. The farms of America have been made by the Creator to yield bumper crops of wheat and corn and other grains. God has poured out His gifts with such abundance that we need live in no fear of want and famine. Although there may be times when we are not able to order steaks, we need not be concerned lest we or our children be undernourished' “Even as God in His munifi cence has again provided for us, so did He also make it possible for us during the months of the year now past to save the lives of many millions in countries which have been devastated by war. What we had promised to send to the hungry across the seas was much. What we actually sent them was more. This is one of the encouraging aspects of human behavior which we will do well to recall. We are all in danger of overlooking the beau tiful things in life and of observ ing and remembering only those things which are evil and sordid. You and I as citizens of America should thank God that we have had the holy privilege of open ing our hands and of sharing generously with less fortunate peoples the bounties from the hands of our Maker." A Message to You From Robin son Crusoe. Of course, you read long years ago Defoe’s great book, Robinson Crusoe, and you re member that he lost everything that you would think absolutely necessary for happiness. Yet one day he wrote in his journal: “I sat down to my meat with thankfulness, and admire the hand of God’s providence which has thus spread my table in the wilderness. I learned to look more on the bright side of my condition, and less upon the dark side, and to consider what I had WTiivis-mviviviTivw-iTiTivivr/vinraT'viviviwT^ r| a j* r )r '* * fj SCHOLARSHIP AWARD WIN NER—Pretty Barbara Kaplan, 16 year old senior at Hunter High school in New York City, is the winner of the 13th an nual scholarship award of the National Sorority of Phi Delta Kappa.

(ANP) rather than what I wanted. And this, at times, gave me such secret comforts that I cannot ex press them. I would like to tell them to discontented people who cannot enjoy what God has given them, because they see and covet something that he has not given them. All our discontents about what we want appeared to me to spring from the want of thank fulness for what we have.” PEAK of QUALITY IDEAL Grocery and Market Lots of Parking 27di and F Streets ^■ - The Continental National' Bank of Lincoln, Nebraska Member F.D.I.C.

(ANP). When a man stabs another man that’s news of everyday life, but when a man stabs a dog and lays him up in the hospital—that is news that barks loud. George Henderson, 51, who is an alley junkman, was found guilty of cruelty to animals when he appeared before Recorder’s Judge O. Z. Ide last Monday. Hen derson was placed on three months probation and ordered to pay the dog’s hospital expenses. Mrs. Iola Shannon, owner of the dog, told the court that Henderson was going through the alley at the rear of her home with his dog tied to a rope. In dog fashion the junkman’s dog attacked her dog who was in the alley with Mrs. Pauline Nevers. Mrs. Shannon said instead of Henderson carry Negro Farmers Show Progress MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Ac cording to Montgomery County farm authorities, colored growers in the immediate vicinity are showing steady progress in pro duction methods and it is highly evident in their living standards. Many are operating profitable farms and own their own homes. Farm agents point to highly profitable operators in Grady, Macedonia, Little Zion, Madison Park, Ramer,' Mount Meigs and Hickory Bond. Largely responsi ble for this upsurge of new life among Negro farmers in the area is the work of farm agents and advisers. ing his dog away, he produced a knife and stabbed her dog in the throat and shoulder. The incident occurred July 16.
