The salary of the woman buyer is
often exaggerated, but as matter of
fact it varies very much according to

upon it. Many of them get $40 week

remembrance OF our own faults and
crimes as q nation and as individuals to
humble ourselves before him and to pray
for his mercy.
thousands of individuals through
out the land refrained from food and
prayed for the nations salvation. The
regular Thanksgiving in November,
1861, was rather subdued occasion
and there was no presidential procla-
nation. By the following spring, how
ever, the clouds had begun to lift.
Forts Henry and Donelson had been
captured and Shiloh had been fought.
So on the 10th of April Lincoln re-
quested that the people give thanks
because ''it has pleased Almighty
God to vouchsafe signal victories to
the land and naval forces" Thanks
giving day proper in November Of 1862
was observed much as it had been the
year previous and no proclamation ac-
companied it,
The momentous year Of 1863 saw
three such proclamations, however,
The first was dated March 80 and
designated April 80 as day of fasting
and prayer. In this rather noteworthy
document occurs the significant state
ment, But we have forgotten God'
By July Is Vicksburg had opened
the Mississippi, and Gettysburg had
ended the fear of invasion, so Oh that
day another proclamation was issued,
reclting that God had heard the pray
ers OF the people and had vouchsafed
victories on land and sea so signal
and so effective" as to promise ulti.
mate peace. So Thursday, Aug. 6, was
set apart as a day for national thanks
giving.
On Oct. 3 came the first of Lincoln's
regular Thanksgiving day proclama-
lions. 1t recites the brighter outlook
for the Union, dwells lovingly on the
continued growth of the nation despite
its tribulations, gratefully points to
the fact that other nations have not
been drawn into the struggle and says,
"No human counsel hath devised nor
hath any mortal hand worked out these
great things" so the last Thursday in
November is set apart as "a day of
thanksgiving and praise"
July Z, 1864, by direction of congress,
President Lincoln designated the first
Thursday Of August ':as day of ma
tional humiliation and prayer" Oct.
20 of the same year saw the issuance
OF Lincoln's second and last regular
thanksgiving proclamation. Before
thanksgiving day arrived it was
known that Lincoln, by an overwhelm-
Ing majority, had been chosen to sue
ceed himself. The war was wearing
to close, and the occasion was aus
picious.
