THANKSGIVING: A Parable THE frail boats of these Pilgrims had been delivered from the vast and tumultuous masses of the dark sea. Under the frowning battlements of the black forest they lifted their roof trees and muscled their walls with oak, laid open the new soil and cast the shining grain, forgetful in labor and hope of their great lone liness. AND now their strong, small cabins cab-ins stood, seamed with snow, in the utter whiteness of the clearing. clear-ing. The blue smolte of their sturdy chimneys drifted warmly against the black wall of the wilderness and their; hearths were ruddy with deep embers. THE harvest was bountiful. The dark barns were musty with maize and bulging pumpkins glowed in the light of the candle. The walls of the cabins were festooned with dry herbs and at each door hung the frozen carcass of a wild beast. THE1 dark ocean thundered with winter storms. The vast wilder ness frowned. Death lurked in the forest and the clearing. Men had died from ax wounds and arrows. Children had perished of starvation and disease and young wives had died in motherhood. Over each door hung the weapons of hunt and warfare. Life was grim and herok with Qdyssean uncertainty.
