Main Street Gossip I Take Time To Be Thankful Thanksgiving is strictly an American holiday. It is a time set aside in remembrance of the First Thanksgiving which was held by the early set tiers of the United States to give thanks to God for the blessings he had bestowed on them at that lime in their quest *jr religious freedom and a chance for hie in a new country. TheD being thank*u! fnr what they had seems meager In compa rtsion to the manj’ things we have today to Ue thankful for in our modern way of life. Yet. how many actually stop and give thanks to the Great Provider who makes all this possible. To many, this special day passes as Just a holiday with a wonderful dinner, and an afterncxm by the TV or visiting with relatives or friends Is there actually anyone around who has nothing tv be thankful for? If anyone shares this feeling, they simply are nut the tjpe of penmrt to know what being thankful mesne, even m time* of sorrow, has many things to be tlmnkful for in their lives. All could M>ei>d a few moments <»f time to say a (ew Words of thanks. — MSG I recalved a phone call about Hie street aweepcr that the T<mn of Walkerton purchased. I w<s mistaken, they do use it was infunned that at two
o’clock in the morning they sweep the main street. Also on Van Buren street, they sweep up the leaves by hand and put them in the truck to take to the dump. 1 guess I will have to "open my eyes" and watch a little more closely at 2 a.m. —MS G — Our Aim — To avoid all gossip. Our Policy — To gossip about nobody. Our Desire — Nobody will gossip about anybody. Our Business — Tn run the gossip column. —MS G — Beat Culver Military Academy!! —- M S G —- Well. well. good folks, it's turkey time again. If you are to have the delectable bird on y«»ur table, then you can spell it with a capital T. Since not all of us will have a chance to EAT turkey, we can at least TALK Turkey. —MS G — Talking turkey means expressing our thanks for the blessings that have been ours during this 1 past year. Certainly all of us have much fnr which we can bo thankful. We sh«»u!l be thank1 ful that we live in America, under a government which we can choose, and not under the iron heel of a dictatorship: that we live in a land of public schools and open churches; that our lands have been unusually productive and our granaries are fu!l; that we are alive and in good health. Compares our conditions today to those of the Pilgrims in 1621 when they held their first Thanksgiving festival. And yet how sincere they were in their thanks to God for their meager blessings. — MSG — Listen to their Thanksgiving letter. written to loved ones back in old England, after the times, and in their own spelling: "Our harvest being gotten in. our Governor sent (t-u: men on fowling that so we might after a more special manner reJoyce together, after we had g a then I th»* fruit of our labours; they foure In this way killed as mu< h fowle, as with a little help be 4de served the Company almost a weeke, at which time amongst other Recreations, we exerci'rd our Armes, many nf the Indians coming amongst us, and amongst the rest with their gre itest King Massasoit, with some ninetle men. whom for three days we entertained and feasted, and they went out and killed five Deere which they brought to the Plantation un-1 bestuwed on our Governor, and upon the Captaine, and others. And although it be not alwayes so plentiful!, as it was at this time with us. yet by the goodness of God, we are so farre from want, that we often wuh you partakers of vur plentie." And so Governor William Bradford, second governor of the little Pilgrim colony, set aside one day as the time to thank Providence for the gu<>d harvest. That was many years ago. Little did those devout men and Women dream of the great America we know today. In their simple but sincere way, they gave thanks for good crops, for game and a place to live where they might worship after the dictates of their vwn conscience. —mS G — If you find a mistake in this paper, please consider that it is there for a purpose.
