HOLIDAY MESSAGE
FROM
RALPH G. CASO, PRESIDING SUPERVISOR, TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD
In this era of world conflict, we seldom take
time to pause and contemplate the more importanf
things of life. More than three centuries ago our fore-fathere
designated a special day on which to give
thanks for their survival through hardships of a rigorous
winter and for the bountiful soil of a new land.
From this soil has grown the tradition that one day in
the year should be sat aside to count bur manifold
blessings and to offer our thanks for the free and
plentiful earth we walk and f f r the strength to meet
the many challenges yet confronting bur community
and our country. '
As the ThanksgMng h oM
forward to the family gatherings.' The traditional
turkey dinner with all the trimmings i t the high point
of the celebrsr'oR. It is unfortunate that many families
in our own will be Incomplete this year; husbands and
sons will be missing from the family, circle. They will
be spending their Thanksgiving lying in a foxhole or
sitting in ja rice paddy somewhere in Viet Nam. No
matter what your viewpoint on the war, you still must
remember our boys who are away from us.
• If we are to say a prayer for next Thanksgiving,
it would be to bring our boys home . . . and erase the
threats of war that dominate the newspaper headlines
. . . help us to resolve those differences that divide the
peoples of the world.
Let us each in bur own way reach toward iustiee,
tranquility and understanding.
