God has a right to our gratitude. It is due from man to man. How much more from man to his Maker. There are at this time things to regret dark despairful experiences through which our Empire is passing, but no one can deny that eve, as a na- tion have :much to be . thankful for. Our blessings, temporal and spirit nal, are inestimable and far be- yond andything we deserve, and even the distress of warfare will not have been in vain if only the careless end inconsiderate are brought to see how dependent they are on God for all they have, all they are; and all they hope to be. "The outlook on Thanksgiving day 1914, should humble us to pray er that we may in a spirit of true contrition confess our sins, for then only can we acceptably praise the God and Father of us all for the benefits he has given us. Then only can we be really thankful un to Him and be more disposed to speak good of Hie name, "To the Christian men and 'wo- men of the city of Brantford 'who feel keenly the sorrow and suffer ing of the cruel war in Europe, to those who have loved ones • pre- paring to go to the front, I have but this one message of strength and confidence 'Lift up your hearts.
