r Georgia Farmers' Marke Bulletin Phil Campbell, VOL. 51 WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER Z4, 1965 Commissioner NUMBER 13 In the early sixteen hundreds, when our forefathers celebrated the first Thanksgiving, they had little to be thankful for, according to today's standards. More than half of their original number had perished during the first winter at Plymouth Rock. Every person who had survived the winter had to work and work hard just to provide enough food for the coming winter months. And so, when the first harvest was reaped and the Pilgrims knew that the cold months ahead would not take the toll the first hard winter had, they rejoiced and gave thanks. This was the first Thanksgiving. A small group of farmers, intent on religious freedom, were thankful that enough food had been harvested to last them the winter months ahead. Today, it does not take the toil of every American to provide food for the winter months. Today, less than 10 percent of our population provides more than enough food for the remaining 90 percent. Today, the average urban family spends less than 20 percent of its income for food. Today, most Americans have little worry about surviving the winter due to lack of food. Today, for Thanksgiving 1965, let us thank God for these blessings; and let us ask His blessing for our men in the Armed Forces who are facing hardship and even death and will not be at home for the American tradition of a Thanksgiving Holiday.
