Salt Lake City, Utah, Thursday Morning, November 28, 1935. Much for Which to Be Thankful BE AT PEACE among yourselves; warn them that are unruly, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient toward all men; rejoice evermore; in every thing give thanks. Paul to the Thessalonians. Other proclamations for general thanksgiving have been issued since that time. As a regular observance it began with the Pilgrim Fathers, who were thankful for preservation from savages and starvation; thankful for soil to till and shelters from New England blizzards; thankful for a measure of self government; thankful for such crops as occasionally survived drouth and insects. Governor Bradford set a day for thanksgiving in the colony over which he presided. The custom comes down the path progress has blazed through the wilderness from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the lakes of the north to the Rio Grande. In this the 159th year of its existence, the republic offers much for which to be thankful. The early colonizers were grateful and appreciative. But they had no paved highways, nor automobiles, nor streamlined transcontinental trains, nor airplanes, nor ocean liners, nor electric lights, nor telephones, nor radios, nor gas ranges, nor furnaces, nor picture houses, nor bathtubs, nor illustrated magazines, nor daily newspapers, nor free schools, nor kodaks, nor fountain pens, nor clothing factories, nor typewriters, nor community chests. Yet they were happy and hopeful and thankful, while some of their doleful descendants or alien trailers who enjoy all these blessings turn up contemptuous noses at luxuries of the past that are common necessities of the present, and sign cards saying they are no thankful. Ruysch named the epithelium Londons Private Medical Schools From 1540 the Company of Barbers and Surgeons jealously guarded their monopoly of teaching anatomy and surgery. In the 18th century influential surgeons gave private courses of lectures, which paved the way for the establishment of private schools, such as those of Percival Pott, William and John Hunter, William C. Cruikshank and Matthew Baillie. What have Americans to be thankful for? these malcontents inquire. Those who have comprehension are thankful they do not live in a land where criticism of the government is punishable with imprisonment or death; thankful they are not vassals of a military despot who trains their children to kill and sends their young men to death in tropic jungles; thankful they do not have to inquire a mans religion before they buy a package of pins from his shop; thankful they are not subject to search and seizure for having Bibles or religious tracts in their possession; thankful they can openly express their views in public and private, in the press or the pulpit, subject only to the laws of slander or sedition. There is much to be thankful for in a land where the whole people contribute to relieve the suffering and recoup the losses of those who are stricken by storms, drouth, floods, earthquakes, accidents, plagues and misfortunes. There is much to be grateful for in having fellow citizens who march with time, their faces to the front, the past behind them and their voices raised in songs of praise and thanksgiving. There were many students of history who, three years ago, expected to see Americans resort to the classic remedy for economic adjustments; in other words, to start a revolution, or a war resulting from domestic disturbances. Conditions have been bad, emergencies have been hard to meet, interference has strikes have been fomented by professional agitators. Through it all, the great mass of Americans have marched, fire still marching, without losing their patience, their patriotism, their tolerance or their hopefulness. The special Providence which has been said to keep our flag unstained and our courage keen still seems to have the United States in its care. There is much for which to be thankful.
