their most fantssc tic dreams Yet their thankiulness was probably muchgreater than that Which marks Thanksgiving Day at the present time There appears to he danger that the quality or thankfiilness is sinking to very low level Man has more and more leaned to the idea of sellsufficiency not given to viewing that which is so liberalz 1y showered upon him as gift tram flu preme Being but rather of his own ach ievement and but his natural right And in so doing man is losing one of Gods greatest blessings blessing which tends toward world stability and personal peac of mind At the same time there is trend to ward lack of thanks or appreciation on the part of many to their fellow men who help them along the way This is particu larly true in the case of the young Youth hosbeen showered with material things They have come to expect the best with out thought ofwho pays for it Many are going through life taking everything they can get and giving as little as they can Thanksgiving should be
