Thoughts on Life
Thanksgiving Day
in 1949
By DR. JOHN HOLLAND
ON AN ILLINOIS FARM just the
other day, a dramatic scene oc
curred. Adam Mertinek, a displaced
man from Warsaw, Poland, was
asked by a neighbor how he liked
living in America. For an answer,
the lately arrived man fell to the
ground on his knees and gave thanks
to God for his good fortune in get
ting to America.
As I think of our annual Thanks
giving day, somehow that thankful
Polish man keeps coming to my
mind. In a world tom by dissen
sion, threatened by starvation, a
world talking peace, while arming
to the teeth: with labor and man
agement jockeying for advantage;
with millions of people looking, not
for work, but for a dole—in such
a world, what have we left for which
to be thankful? Suppose we ask
this displaced, now placed, Pole on
this Illinois farm. I think he would
say something like this:
Thankful for Freedom
"If you could have seen the sights
that have frozen my soul, you would
almost worship the flag which guar
antees your freedoms. I have ex
isted, not lived, under the flag that
denies everything enjoy freely.
To see every dear thing trampled
under foot, to be treated as a beast
of burden rather than as a man—
that has been my portion for nine
years.
"We Poles love freedom, and some
of our people have fought for free
dom in America, and now that I am
here, I know why they came.
"Do you know what it is to be a
slave? I was taught in childhood to
worship God and follow the teach
ings of Christ. Even that right was
taken away from me. The Russians
destroyed even the church where
I once worshiped. Churches are
free here and I shall always worship
in them. I wonder why every Amer
ican does not go to church every
Sunday to thank God for the privi
lege of worshiping. When the Rus
sians wanted to make beasts of us,
they shut the doors of our churches.
In them at least, we enjoyed some
freedom to think, and pray. You
have always had that right. I hope
you never neglect it or lose it.
Land of Friendliness
Coming to America and traveling
from New York, I saw more signs
of wealth and happiness than I knew
existed on this earth. I hope you
are thankful. Here, I begin to feel
like a man again. Neighbors in
quire if I am well, or happy. It is a
land of friendliness.
Oh, you fortunate Americans
have a great task ahead of you.
Guard your liberty of person and
your individual freedom. You will
lose them unless you do. It is easier
to fight for freedom than to pre
serve it in times of peace."
Some such words as these must
be in the hearts of thousands who
u
I .
have come and will come to our
They have much to
liberty land,
teach us and much to learn from us.
Let us, like this Pole, devoutly thank
God for the blessings that are ours.
Then every day will become Thanks
1 giving day.
