How Important IS Columbus Day?

Excepts taken from "Just Thoughts of a Plain Country Woman"  October 13, 1949

October 12 is Columbus Day and it is most fitting that we give more thought to its observation, for on that day started one of the greatest experiments in all world history.
 
I doubt that anything but the birth of Christ has had so great an effect upon civilization as the discovery of  America. 
 
Christ came to give the world a new way of life.  Columbus gave us a new place to work out this new way of life.
