In great cities Thanksgiving has gone far afield from its first hand significance because people are removed from firstâ€"hand contact with nature. The observance continues, but very often its deep spiritual significance has fled after the manner of all things of the spirit, and left only the empty husk. o Only on the American farm does Thanksgiving come in all its original virility.
