On this day in History

Guess what was published on this day in 1937?  Especially on World Gratitude Day

World Gratitude Day is an opportunity to show your gratitude and appreciation.

The United Nations Meditation Group created World Gratitude Day to express appreciation for the great things that individuals and groups do. This recognition is on a global basis. According to their website: "World Gratitude Day presents an award to someone who we feel has done something outstanding in the spirit of Globalism."

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.
Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell,
nor yet a dry, bare sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat:
it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.
It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green,
with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle.
The door opened on to a tube-shaped hall like a tunnel:
a very comfortable tunnel without smoke, with paneled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted, provided with polished chairs.

Globalism?  Well gratitude is more appropriate than miniature golf day.

A box without hinges, key or lid.
Yet golden treasure inside is hid!

The Hobbit, or There and Back Again.  It has never been out of print.
