We of today, looking back with a full knowledge of the great trials and sufferings placed upon the Continental army in that winter of misery at Valley Forge, may perhaps wonder at the faith thus unfolded. There is, however, one fact which we, accustomed to observe the last Thursday of November as Thanksgiving day, should not overlook. It is thanksgiving day as we know It, with a definite place £pou our calendar, did not come into existence until 1863. Thanksgiving day originated with the Pilgrims, who set aside a day for thanksgiving at Plymouth Immediately after their first harvest, in 1821.

DECEMBER 13, 1621 became an annual festival in that colony. Connecticut also had a similar festival annually from 1647 onward. Usually these days for thanksgiving followed the harvest, and were set aside primarily to give thanks to the Lord for the blessings he had bestowed upon the Colonists. During the Revolution, the Continental congress appointed one or more days for thanksgiving each year, except In 1777^ when* ..not even a congressman could tind any blessings to point out to his constituents as reason for rejoicing. These Revolutionary Thanksgiving days usually were founded upon some military success and fortune smiled wanly, indeed, upon the Continental army In 1777--the winter of despair at Valley Forge. . • Valley. Forge Observation. . _ " : Washington's Thanksgiving ^ day" proclamation at Valley Forge came after the snows and the hunger and the sufferings of that terrible winter of 1777-78 had departed and spring smiled again upon the fertile valleys of Pennsylvania. The occasion was the entrance of France Into the war as an ally of the Colonies. The Valley Forge Thanksgiving May, 1778, was a military celebration, with the chaplain of brigade directed "to offer up thanks and deliver a discourse suitable to the occasion." Then there was cannon fire and huzzas, and cries*6f "Long Live the King of France!" "Long Live the Friendly European Powers!" and finally a general- running fire and the huzza, "The American States!" Celebrations of Peace. ;Another special Thanksgiving day was ordered by General Washington at Newburgh on the Hudson, April 19, 1783, eight years to the day from the shot fired at Lexington. Ultimate peace had been assured ever since the surrender of Cornwall! s, but the question had become alarmingly acute ever since: How was it possible to keep even a remnant of the army alive to receive the treaty of peace? Six months more of this starvation, this utter discouragement as to the «se of it all--the harassed general <Jar®d not think of what his poor boys' might b« driven to do to end it all. The Joy with which the information was at last received from Sir Guy Oarleton that a cessation of hostilities was announced can scarcely be imagined. Immediately, the commander In chief issued his proclamation and directed that a public religious service and thanksgiviuK should take place on MAY 7, 1778 the same evenfng, April 19. This was probably the ^happiest Thanksgiving America has ever experienced, writes Estelle Harris in the Bicentennial News, published by the Alexandria. Va., Gazette in co-operation with the United States commission for the cele bratlon of the two-hundredth annlver sary of Washington's birth. A coun try gained glory and honor, and home around the bend of the road.

Presidential Proclamation. Die first Presidential Thanksgiving proclamation named November 2ti, 1789. As far as the people were con cerned.'they could Join in with any and all services, for they felt the na tlon was saved again now that the great Washington was at the helm. As for Father George himself, he was entirely too busy to write, much in APRIL 19, I7B3 that diary of his, that is such A pre cions legacy to his people. Here is all he says: "November 26.

Quelling the insurrection In Pennsylvania was again a deliverance from danger, and cause for great rejoicing on the part of all the people, and a proclamation was made, appointing a day of thanksgiving, for the general welfare and stable condition of the Union. This was issued from Independence hall, and February 19, 1795, was thus set apart, on which day the nation was "w<th devout reverence and affectionate gratitude, to return thanks for its national blessings and Implore their continuance." As with all of George Washington's papers, this proclamation abounds in patriotism and counsel of th^ highest order, both as worthy of emulation today as yesterday. - Much Reason for Thanks. In looking back to these special Thanksgiving days of early American history, no patriotic heart can help feeling the beauty and appropriateness of these gatherings.
