Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Pres. Roosevelt has issued the
following proclamation setting aside
Thursday, Nov. Goth, as a day oil
National thanksgiving:
By the president of the United
States of America. A proclamation
The season is at hand when, accord
ing to the custom of our people, it
falls upon the president to appoint a
day of praise and thanksgiving to
God. During the past year the
Lord has dealt bountifully with us,
giving us peace at home and abroad,
and the chance for our citizens to
work for their welfare unhindered
by war, famine and plague.
1T behooves us not only to re-
joice greatly because of what has
been given us, but to accept with
solemn sense of responsibility, real
iz1ng that, under heaven, it rests
with us ourselves to show that we
are worthy to use as right what
has thus been entrusted to our care.
In no other place and at no
other time has the experiment of
the government of the people, by
the people and for the people been
tried on so vast a scale as here in
our own country in the opening
years of the twentieth century.
Failure would not only be a
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 right
of liberty.
Therefore, i'll thanking God for
ne mercies extended to us in the {
asst, we beseach Him that he NAV b
OF withhold them IN the future and "
lat our hearts may be aroused TO
ar steadfastely for good and against v
Il forces of evil, public and private. ,,
"We pray for strength and light, =
0 that in the coming years we may L
7ith cleanliness, fearlesness and S
wisdom do our allotted work on ,
arth in such manner as to show
hat we are not altogether unworthy
# the blessings we have received.
Now, therefore, l, Theodore i
Roosevelt, president of the United
States, do hereby designate as
1av of general thanksgiving, Thurs
day, the Goth day of the coming
and do recommend that
throughout the land people cease
from their wonted occupations and
in their several homes OF worship
render thanks unto Almighty God
for his manifold mercies.
