A CALL TO GIVE THANKS.
President Roosevelt Isses Thanks.
giving Day Proclamation
November ~ the Day.


Washington, Oct. 30.-President
Roosevelt Wednesday issued his proc
lamation designating Thursday, No
vember q, as a day of Thanksgiving
The proclamation is as follows:
According to the yearly custom OF
our people, it falls upon the president
at this season to appoint day of fes-
tival and thanksgiving to God.
'Over a century and a quarter has
passed since this country took its
place among the nations of the earth
and during that time we have had on
the whole more to be thankful for
than has fallen to the lot of any other
people. Generation after generation
has grown to manhood and passed
away. Each has had to bear its Pc
culiar burdens, each to face its spe-
cial crisis. and each has known years
of grim trial, when the country was
menaced by malice domestic or for
eign levy, when the hand of the Lord
was heavy upon it in drought or food
or pestilence. when in bodily distress
and anguish of soul it paid the penalty
of folly and froward heart. Never
theless, decade by decade, We have
struggled onward and upward; We
now abundantly enjoy material we'll
being, and under the favor of tho
Most High we are striving earnestly
to achieve moral and spiritual uplift-
ing. The year that has just closed Tag
been one of peace and of overflowi1g
plenty. Rarely has any people en-
joyed greater prosperity than we are
now enjoying. For this We render
heartfelt and solemn thanks to the
Giver of good; and we seek to praise
Him not by words only but by deeds,
by the way in which we do our duty to-
ourselves and to our fellow men.
Now, therefore, l. Theodore Roose-
welt. president of the United States,
do hereby designate as day of gen.
eral thanksgiving Thursday. the
twenty-seventh of the coming Novem-
Der, and do recommend that through
out the land the people cease from
their ordinary occupations, and in
their several homes and places of wor-
ship render thanks unto Almighty
God for the manifold blessings of the
past year.
.In witness whereof l have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington
this goth day of October, in the year
Of Our Lord one thousand nine hun
dred and two and of the lndepen-
dence of the United States the one
hundred and twenty-seventh.
