These Are The Symbols of Thanksgiving
These are the symbols of Thanksgiving. These are the symbols of America on her
mighty, ceaseless quest for greatness and for freedom.
• +>* f'
BIBLE . TURKEY . AXE.and GUN. They were well known to
the Pilgrim Fathers. For the Bible led them to this strange and lonely land.as the
World of God and the need for freedom to worship Him were to lead other thousands in their
own time to help build a great nation.
The wild turkey’s forbidding countenance and incredibly tender flesh seemed to
symbolize the country they found, a wilderness waiting to be reclaimed only by strength
and by steel. And always with the American went the gun into the silent wilderness.
These are the symbols of the day we celebrate - the peculiarly American holi
day we call Thanksgiving. These are the symbols of American freedom; of its inspiration
and attainment; of its rish reward and price. These are our hallmarks, the tokens of our
creed and destiny, the things we stand for: Faith in God; Zeal and achievement; The pot of
gold at rainbow’s end; Abiding love of country.
The BIBLE.
The AXE.
The TURKEY.
And the GUN.
