Dear Lord, how can we thank Thee half
enough
For all Thy gifts to us this fruitful year!
For spring’s bright promise gloriously
fulfilled
This harvest-time; for these that are more
dear
Than bread assured; all the sweet joys of
life—
Home, work, love, friends—that gild the
passing days;
And children’s laughter on the evening air—
For all, dear Lord.Ave give Thee grateful
praise.
But most of all, 0 God, we thank Thee for
Our cherished heritage of freedom. Here
Where men walk safely, surely; speak
And pray
As each one wills, and freely, without fear,
Lord make us strong to hold and spread this
boon!
From our abundance help the weak to raise
Their hearts and come to share our
brotherhood,
And join with us in songs of thanks and
praise!

Greetings on
Thanksgiving
Since the days of the Pilgrim fathers,
Thanksgiving has been an occasion for great
joy. The day was set apart for pause and reflec-
tion ... to celebrate a plentiful harvest ... to
enjoy the feeling of security, peace and con-
tentment that are the honest rewards of an able
and industrious people.
May we now express our thanks for the
generous share of blessings accorded us? Among
our richest blessings we count the friendships
we have formed, and we hereby send greetings
to all.

"The first meal convinced'
"My neighbors... the ones who have electric ranges
... have been telling me the advantages of electric
cooking: so easy, so dependable, so modern! The
very first meal I cooked on my new electric range
convinced me that they were right. Now I’m serv-
ing better meals ... yet spending less
time in the kitchen.”
Speedy heating units are ready to go at the flick
of a switch. There’s no smoke or soot to blacken
pans... so clean-up time is cut to a minimum.
Thermostatic temperature controls maintain the
exact heat required ... and that kind of accuracy
means delicious cookbook results every time. And
these are only a jew of the reasons why so many
women are switching to electric cooking..
modernizing their
kitchens with
new electric
ranges!
