HE RELIGIOUS ZEAL of Puritans, the natural rejoicings of WHY NoT 2 colonists in a strange land, the victories of war, State rights, HANG: IT OUTSIDE © SS ff veces the authority of national government, the foree of habit and example, private initiative and common sense—each and all may claim te have had a hand in making Thanksgiving what it is to-day—a fes- | thal observed throughout the: nation. | The first Thanksgiving was a day soi apart by Gov. Bradford of | the Plymouth Colony in 1621, after the Pilgrims’ first harvest, as 4 dag of praise and gratitude for the blessings of heaven during that first taying year in the new country. ‘I'wo years later, in 1623, a day of | fasting and prayer in the midst of a devastating drought was suddenly A, G@eangod into thanksgiving by the coming of rain during prayers. ff Tals occurrence strengthened the thankegiving instinct, and it soon j became the established custom to celebrate a day of thanksgiving cach y year after the harvest. H _ The Massachusetts Bay Colony appointed Thanksgiving for the fiyst time in 1630, and frequently in the years following until 1660, | when it became a regular annual festival. Connecticut followed with | fie fret observance in 1639, and made the celebration annual after 1647, except in the year 1675. The Dutch in New Netherland (New York) fell into line and appointed a day for giving thanks in 1641, Sepesting the custom on various occasions thereafter. | During the Revolution the Continental Congress appointed one | @ more thanksgiving days every year, with the exception of 1777, | each time formally recommending to the executives of the various | Btates the observance of these days in their respective States. Pre dent Washington appointed a day of thanksgiving to fall on Thursday, | Wer..26, 1789, and another in 1795. President Madison, in response | fe resolutions of Congress, set apart a day for thanksgiving at the | tose of the War of 1812. After 1817 the Governor of the Stateyef New York annually op- | a Thanksgiving Day. Several of the Southern States op- pesed the institution as a relic of Puritan bigotry, but by 1858 Thanks-} giving proclamations were issued by the Governors of twenty-five | Sbates and two territories. In 1864 President Lincoln appointed the fourth Thursday in No- wentber as Thanksgiving Day, and Presidents and Governors since | then have followed his example. The suggestion for the change is eal to have come from Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale, then editor of a} Willely known Philadelphia magazine, Godey’s Lady Book. In any ease it was President Lincoln who fixed the present date of the festival. . From the earliest Thanksgiving the wild turkey, prized food of Gas evloniste, became by right the honorable and august sacrifice of the day.
