WHEREAS
at this season of the year our people for generations past have always turned their thoughts to thankfulness for the blessings of Almighty God,
THE
keen appreciation of Christian Science and the deep gratitude for its teachings which are felt by Christian Scientists enable them to dwell in the mental state of thanksgiving.
HOW
beautiful the swift flight of a bird sweeping aloft on joyful wing! How aptly it symbolizes that spiritual elevation and freedom which the understanding of Christian Science brings to the human consciousness, lifting it upward and Godward, as it were, on wings of joy! This joyousness is not, however, mere emotionalism, for it is born of a perception of the allness of God, His ever-presence and infinite goodness, and is in no way contingent on the evidence of the physical senses.
ARE
we tempted at times to stand in awe of some problem that confronts us, perhaps temporizing with the seeming difficulty in our mental arguments, convinced that victory will eventually be gained, but reconciled to the belief that we must submit temporarily to error's rule?
WE
are all more or less familiar with the story of the minutemen who played such an important part in the gaining of the independence of the United States of America.

The remarkable growth of Christian Science is often a matter of surprise to those who know little or nothing of the facts, but who have noted its rapid spread.
Recently a number of Committees on Publication in the United States and abroad met in Boston for a series of conferences with the Manager of Committees on Publication.

While in a Christian Science practitioner's office I was asked if I had ever thought of laying aside my glasses, which I had worn since the age of four years.
Four years ago on Thanksgiving Day I was in a Christian Science church for the first time, and it is over three years ago that I was healed of what was considered a serious disease of the bowels.

My husband and I have known of the benefits of Christian Science treatment since we were children, as our parents became interested when we were young.
I have derived so much benefit from reading the testimonies in The Christian Science Journal and the Christian Science Sentinel that I wish to give mine with the desire that it may be of like benefit to others.
