THE DAY
OF THANKSGIVING.
The old time Thanksgiving
day haul four features. First,
a church service of thankful
recognition; second, a feast of
good things toi eat; third, a
reunion of kinsfolks; fourth,
kindly provision for the poor
and needy.
TTne modem Thanksgiving
observance should include all
four of these features. If any
of them are lacking, our lives
will miss an enriching influence
If our modem folks demand
their (holiday for rest and
pleasure, they can maintain the
thankful heart just the Rame.
But human life needs the quiet
hour of religious devoton. Un
less opportunity is found for
that at some time, our nature*
will lose connection with the
deeper springs of inspiration
and happiness. Moit of us have
been happy in the main, or

They found a pathetic sight
at the end of the quest. The
man who 10 years ago entered
the white house in the prime of
life, eager and ardent, full of
zeal for all noble causes, was
seen today as one whose best
life force is spent

than 67 years old, an age when

President Wilson, bearing on
his heart and brain the welfare
of his country and the world
through the tremendous years
of the world war and succeed,
ing controversies, burned up
the best of his vitality and
emerged a broken man.
He sacrificed his life for his
country, just as truly as Abra-
ham Lincoln did. He gave ev-
er)' ounce of mental and phy
sical force to the effort to win
the war, and make the results
thereof contribute to world
peace. Even people who feel
that this point of view was
wrong, must reverence the
aqbQlty of purpose with which
he threw himself into the
struggle for human welfare,
generous and useful lives, and H<> spaml ^ himself. he

He with his wife and small
children came to Johnson coun
ty, Texas, 1874, they only lived
there two years, then moved to
Tarrant county, living there
three years, and in 1879 moved
to Bunyan community, Erath
county, where he lived until
death called him home.
In 1880 he was am verted at
Bunyan and joined the Protest
ant Methodist church at Bun-
yan and lived in this church
twenty five years ever faithful
to its vows. On February 24,
1907 he joined the M. E. church
South, and in this he lived un .
til God said it is enough, “come
up higher.”

munity for a long time. He was
loved and respected by all that
knew him. He was a good
neighbor and loyal citixen, and
ever.stood ifctr the right. He
loved his fellow-men in to big
hearted way, and his fellowmen
loved and trusted him.
He believed much in family
prayer. He and his devoted
wife/ erected ,a family altar
long ago and he never let it go
down. He expressed a desire,
that his children all have fam-
ily prayer, and a few weeks be-
fore he died, he called for the
Bible ad asked to have prayer.
