Thanksgiving day was observed in

1t was holiday occasion and in va

the city assembled and returned thanks
for the blessings that have been show
cred upon them.
The capitol, the public buildings and
banks We're closed throughout the day
and places of business generally took
half holiday.
The Thanksgiving exercises in the
churches were of unusual excellence and
attracted large audiences. Bishop CAL
loway occupied the pulpit at Edenton
Street church, while at the Presbyte-
rian church Union THANKSGIVING service
was held, in which the Baptist, Presby-
terian and Christian ministers partici-
pated. Thanksgiving services appropriate
to the day were also held in Christ
church, the Church of the Good Shep-
herd and the Church of the Sacred
Heart
At the hotels elaborate menus were
served, while in every home in Raleigh
the turkey and the cranberry were re-
membered. The old soldiers We're not

We ought to be thankful for the benev-
olence of this age. Men who have
amassed great treasure are pouring it
out literally to benevolent uses There
are those who think the concentration
of wealth should be stopped. God has
pursued his own plan and it may be that
he has permitted this accumulation OF
wealth in order to touch the hearts OF
men with treasure so that 1T can be
poured out for the good OF the land, IN
schools, in libraries and in many ways.
We ought to thank God that wealth has
been distributed in this way. What an
opportunity afforded rich men to bless
the world
I said last Sunday if / was not afraid
I would rather have the gift of accumu-
lated wealth than any other blessing
If | had millions / could put thousands
to work in barren fields, where so much
could be accomplished. Would that l
could impress men of wealth with their
opportunities Would that I could i'm
press you to give thanks today with
munificent gifts for the benefit of man
kind.
Through the invention of electricity and
steam God has broken away the barriers
and opened UP the world for the spread
of Christianity Surely we ought to
thank God that We live in such stirring
times.
We have cause for gratitude today
The assassination of our lamented Presi-
dent gives us the opportunity to be
thankful-thankful for his beautiful
home life, his magnificent Christian
character. for his broad views and for
the demonstrations after his death show
ing the hold he had on the affections of
the people. We have cause to be thank
full for the orderly succession of one adj
ministration after another, for it evil
denced the stability of this nation. In
the occasion of the affliction of the ma
tion we have cause to express our
gratitude

At the Other Churches.

At Christ Church, the rector, Rev. DR..
NJ. NJ. Marshall, delivered an eloquent
and forcible thanksgiving sermon. His
text was righteousness exalteth ma
ton, but sin is a reproach to any peo-
ple"
The church was filed and the services
were very interesting and appropriate.
DR.. Marshall dwelt upon the growth and
prosperity of the nation. The vast ex-
pansion of territory. he said, seemed to
be one of Gods purposes for widening the
influence of Christianity and civilization.
DR.. Marshall spoke in high terms OF
President Roosevelt, the new chief mag
istrate. He said he was a man full of
the courage of his convictions, with a
record for clearing out incompetents in
public places and putting in worthy men;
that he was certainly not of infallible
judgment as was shown in a conspicuous
instance, but that he desired to do we'll
and had the public veal at heart. He
referred to the recent changes in Gov
eminent in New York as another health
full sign of a more moral sentiment in
public life and an encouraging sign of the
times. He paid a beautiful tribute to
Governor Aycock and his earnest, zeal
Gus and high minded efforts to advance
public education, speaking of the Cover
nor as a man of high Christian life and
character and asking what North Car
Gilman is not proud of him and grateful
to him for the great work he has done
and is doing; a work which will enroll
his name high among the noblest of his
State" He expressed his joy at the
rise of public education, at the great
work the State and it's people are doing
in caring for the orphans, the sicA, the
suffering, the insane, the blind, the deaf,
the dumb and the poor. Truly the world
is growing better.
The services at the Church Of the Sa-
cred Heart were conducted by Father
O'Brien and Father Price. Father
OBrien conducted the mass services.
The sermon was preached by Father
Price. The service was most impress
sive one. collection of $1,000 was
taken for the Catholic orphans, in this
city.
At the Church of the Good Shepherd
Rev. DR.. !. NICK. Pittenger, conducted
the service. The altar was beautifully
decorated with palms and potted plants.
A collection was taken for the Thompson
Orphanage.

"The Brazen Serpent" win be the text

''The Brazen Serpent" will be the text
tonight.
During the song service last night,
before Mr.. Pearson arrived. DR.. Daniel
stated to the already crowded church
that tonight the privilege would
be given all who have heard Mr.. Pear
son to express their appreciation Of his
service offered SO freely, in a practical
way. DR.. Daniels talk was followed
by one from Mr.. N. b. Broughton, who
spoke in behalf of the other churches Of
the city. He said that it is only right
that the crowds who have heard Mr..
Pearson's sermons each night should
give tonight, when the collection
will be taken, as much as they can. He
said a meeting like this means a great
deal to community; that it's effects
will last eternally, and that he was sure
everyone would be glad to contribute
something to the one who is laboring so
faithfully among us, and whose health
is breaking down under the strain. There
are about one thousand persons who have
listened to Mr.. Pearson each night, he
said, and suggested that each person
contribute at least fifty cents tonight.

REVISING rHR CREED.
The Work Begun to Make the Declaration
Fore Popularity Understood.
(By the Associated Press. J


Washington, ID. c., Nov 2S.-The pre-
liminary work of revising the creed of
the Presbyterian church so as to make it
more popularity understood, was inau-
gurated here today at meeting of a
section of the committee of twenty APP
pointed at the last Presbyterian Assem-
bly, to accomplish this result. The sec
ton that met today began the prepara-
ton of new statement of the doctrine
of the church. The object is to secure a
formal expression of doctrine that will
be more definite and convey to the lay
mind clearer understanding of the
subject THAN the present declaration.
New chapters are to be drafted on the
Holy Spirit and on the love of God and
slight revision made of the confession
of Faith with reference to the elect
infant declarations. 1t is felt that the
present statement ON this point implies
that any infant dying in infancy is lost
from the standpoint of the religious flu
ture state, and the creed to be adopted
will make it clear that the Presbyterian
church does not hold the belief that those
who die in infancy are lost

Bishop Hargrove's Sermon.

A large audience heard Bishop Har-
grove deliver the Thanksgiving sermon at
Edenton Street Methodist church yester-
dav.
A collection was taken for the Method
ist Orphanage in this city, which netted
$50 Special music was rendered by the
choir and the service was most in
teresting one.
The Introductory scripture read was
the 107 Psalm which opens with the pas
sage 80, Give thanks to the Lord for He
is good and His mercy endureth forever
The Bishop took his text from
Thesolonans, 5th chapter, 18th verse:
'In everything give thanks for this is
the will of God in Christ Jesus concern
ing YOU
Our duty is specified in this text, which
denotes the beneficence of Gods govern
ment Unless this We're true He could
not demand thanks in all things.
This is the National Thanksgiving day.
We are called together by proclamation
of the President and the Governors of the
States to return thanks for blessings re-
ceived 1t is an occasion for devout
Thanksgiving to God.
What is meant by this proclamation of
the President. 1t implies that God is the
God of nations. lie rules in this ma
teral world and He rules nations. The
whole machinery is subject to his direc-
ton. 1t doesn't imply that everything
done in this world is right. Men sin
against God and SO do nations.
Some great grief is visited on people
by the Lord to bring them nearer to Him.
Never until the gloom that followed the
Civil War did this nation observe
Thanksgiving by issuing proclamations
to the people. The duty of Thanksgiving
is imposed upon man. The hog can enjoy
food, but is unable to return thanks for
what it receives. 1t is mans higher
power, his ability to reason, that en-
ables him to return thanks. We ought
to be grateful for this power.
We ought to be thankful because We
live during the first thanksgiving of the
twentieth century. We stand at the close
of century remarkable for it's progress.
What wonderful improvements in
science and in every field during the
past one hundred years. Thankfulness
is thinkfulness, said Methodist Bishop.
Go through your memory and recall the
thousands of things for which you should
be thankful. II we could only be led to
think. Science and human intelligence
have advanced wonderfully. There is
more intelligence in this county today
than ever before. We are fortunate to
live in this day. and for our opportunities
we ought to return thanks to Almighty
Cod.

The Presidents Quiet Thanksgiving
(By the Associated Press


Washington, Nov. 2S.-Thanksgiving
Day passed very quietly at the White
House. There were no official callers
President Roosevelt came early to the Of

finding nothing to engage his attention,
started off for a walk. Although there
was swapping northwest wind blowing

coat and wholly unattended, he walked
across Lafayette Square and up Connect

work, the President carried him off and
the two went into the suburbs for a

The White House dinner was set for

Columbia Broils the Reds.

New York, Nov. 2S.-With practically
perfect football for the first sixty-five
minutes of play, Columbia's eleven rolled
UP their largest score of the season
against the Carlisle Indian team this af-
ternoon. In that time they scored forty
points. shutting out the Indians COM
pletely. In the last five minutes, how
ever, the Indians, making a sudden and
unexpected brace, and Columbia weary
going to pieces from the previous hard
work, the speedy Carlisle team gained l.
points almost in the twinkling of an
eye, making the final score forty to twelve
in favor of the Blue and White.
