Thanksgiving Proclamation.

President Roosevelt last Saturday
issued the following Thanksgiving procla-
nation:
1.-THE season is at hand, when accord
ing to the custom of our people, it falls
upon the President to appoint day OF
praise and thanksgiving to God.
During the last year the Lord has dealt
bountifully with US, giving us peace at
home aud abroad, and the chance for our
citizens to work for their welfare un-
hindered by war, famine or plague. 1t
behooves US not only to rejoice greatly
because of what has been given US, but to
accept it with solemn sense of RESPONSE
bility, realizing that under heaven it
rests with US ourselves to show that we
are worthy to use Alright what has thus
been entrusted to our care. In no other
place, and at no other time, has the ex-
pertinent Of government of the people,
by the people, and for the
people, been tried on so vast
scale as here in our own country in the
tColo VI tuC G"ShsASeu SOa0NA
Failure would not only be dreadful
thing for us, but dreadful thing for all
mankind, because it would mean loss Of
hope for all who believe in the power
and the righteousness of liberty. There
in thanking God for the mercies extend
ed to US in the past, we beseech him that
he may not withhold them in the future,
and that our hearts may be reused to war
steadfastly for good and against all the
forces of evil. public and private. We
pray for strength and light, so that in the
coming years We may with cleanliness,
fearlessness and wisdom do our allotted
work on the earth in such manner as to
show that we are not altogether unworthy
of blessings we have received.
Now, therefore, I. Theodore Roosevelt
president of the United States. do hereby
designate as day of general thanksgiv-
ing Thursday. the Goth Of the coming
November, and do recomend that through
out the land people cease from their
wonted occupations, and in their several
homes and places of worship render
thanks unto Almighty God for manifold
mercies.
In witness whereof, l have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this
31st day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand nine hundred and
three and of the independence of the
United States the one hundred and twenty
eighth.

Hicks Forecasts for November

The storm diagram for this month shows
that a regular Vulcan storm period is
central on the 1st.
About the 9Th, 9th aud 7th look for
noticeable rise in temperature, falling
barometer and return Of general storm
conditions. Rains turning to snow in
the north, will visit most sections of the
country, in their eastward march about
the 5th to Sth A marked change to high
barometer and colder will follow the
storms, spreading to the east and south
about the 7th to 9th inclusive.
The Vulcan storm period, extending
from the 10th to the 18th, is central on
the 18th and the Mercury period, extend
ing from the 9TH to the 10Th, is central on
the 18th, hence the combined perturba-
lions of these two forces will be felt dur
ing the Vulcan period. Moon is in peri
gee on the 10th, at last quarter on the
18th, and on the celestial equator, going
southwark on the 18th. About the 18th
to 18th may reasonably be expected one
of the most general and active storm cen
tiers of the month. As early the 10th the
barometer will be falling in the west.
Change to warmer will attend the falling
barometer, and during the 18th to 18th
these conditions will pass over the
country. moving eastward, bringing rain
and snow storms to most parts OF the
country.
A very decided dash of early winter
will bring up the rear of these storms,
giving several cold days and frosty nights
to most parts before the entrance of the
next storm period.
A reactionary storm period in central
from the 18th to the Goth, having the new
Moon, or Moon in conjunction with
Earth and Sun on the 10Th. This period
will bring return of rising temperature,
falling barometer and wide areas of
cloudiness, rain and snow. The culmina-
ton of these disturbances will fall on
and next to the 10Th. At this time autumn
nal rains will end in high gales over the
lake and Atlantic coast regions, with
dashes of snow and change to much col
der over all northern to central parts of
the country. Frost will reach quite into
the south along with the high barometer
following these disturbances.
A regular storm period is central on
the 9th, covering with its influence the
22nd to the 9th. As rule the first two
to three days of the regular storm periods
are fair and growing warmer, with fall
ing barometer and easterly to southerly
winds. Then follow cloudiness, storm
and precipitation, progressively from
west to east. Behind the area of high
temperature and rain, rising barometer
snow and cold, west winds follow, al
ending in cold, clear weather. Thi:
order of phenomena will transpire about
the 22nd to Goth, but the cold, fair weather
following the storms will be of shor
duration. Reactionary storm condition!
will prevail as the month goes out, bring
ing unsettled, threatening and stormy
weather.

Automobile For Professional Men

There ale many men who can make
constant and economical use of an auto
mobile in their business, such as physi-
clans and other professional men, but who
have never been in position to investi-
gate for themselves the merits of the
horseless carriage. To be sure, all auto
mobiles are not suited for such use. The
Cadillac for $3.50 is the ideal machine for
general use and it has proved itself again
and again. Comfort, speed and safety
are all united in the Cadillac. Those in
terested can easily find more details by
communicating with the Mar.Del- Mobile
Company, 1904 Union Trust Building,
Baltimore, who represent the Cadillac as
we'll as the Searchmont and Waverly
Electric. The company is now looking
for energetic men to act as agents in
Maryland and Delaware.

Shorthand in the Schools,
From the Toronto Mail and Empire.

From the Toronto Mail and Empire.
In view Of the proposal to teach short
hand in the public schools of Toronto quite
a controversy has arisen touching the mer-
its of the various systems. The advocate
of each style is able to prove, to his own
satisfaction at least, that all other systems
are defective or transient. 1t is a question
that might be debated at considerable
length without much prospect, for. after
all, the real point is: Why teach short
hand in the public schools? Are the schools
so efficient now in teaching the present cur
riculum that further subjects must be
found TO satisfy the mental appetite of the
rising generation? If so then shorthand
might well be added to the equipment of
the scholars. 1t is true that unless 1T is
diligently practiced 1t is worthless as an
accomplishment. And the practice that 1t
demands is such that only those who pro-
pose to make profession of it could afford
to devote the time that it requires. Under
ordinary circumstances IL is not possible
that more than or perhaps per cent of
the children attending our public schools
could find openings for employment
stenographers. Is it wise, therefore to in
troduce shorthand into the public schools?
We must remember that every additional
branch of study takes from the time and
energy that can be devoted to the funda-
mentalS of education. By all means let III
be sure that the foundations are laid thor,
ougnly and we'll before we venture to add
any more superstructures.
