THE PROCLAMATION
Of THANKSGIVING
Following is the Thanksgiving proc

Following is the Thanksgiving proc
lamation of President Roosevelt:
"Once again the season of the yea
has come when in accordance with tn
custom of our forefathers for genera
tions past the President appoints tn
day as the especial occasion for al
our people to give praise and thanks
giving to God.
During the past year we have beer
free from famine, from pestilence
from war; we are at peace with al
the rest of mankind. Our natural re
sources are at least as great as those
of any other nation. We believe tha
in ability to develop and take advan'
tage of these resources the average
man of this nation stands at least as
high as the average man of any other
Nowhere else in the world is there
such an opportunity for free people
to develop to the fullest extent all its
powers of body, of mind, and of that
which stands above both body and
mind-character Much has been given
us from on high and much will rightly
be expected of US in return.
been entrusted; and we are to be par
doned neither if We squander and
waste them, nor yet if we hide them in
a napkin, for they must be fruitful
in our hands. Ever throughout the
ages, at all times and among all pep
pies, prosperity has been fraught with
danger. and it behooves US to beseech
the Giver of All Things that we not
fall into love of ease and of luxury;
that we may not lose our sense of
moral responsibility; that we may not
forget our duty to God and to oul
neighbor.
"A great democracy like ours, a de-
mocracy basd upon the principles ioc
orderly libert., can be perpetuated only
if in the heart of ordinary citizen there
dwells a keen sense of righteousness
and Justice We should earnestly pray
that this spirit of righteousness and
justice may grow ever greater in the
hearts of all of us, and that our souls
may be inclined ever more both toward
the virtues that tell for gentleness and
for loving kindness and
one with another, and to-
ward those no less necessary virtues
that make for manliness and rugged
hardihood-for without these qualities
never nation nor individual can rise to
the level of greatness.
Now, therefore, 1, Theodore Roose-
Welt. President of the United States do
set apart Thursday, the twenty-eighth
day of November, as a day for general
and prayer, and on that
day l recommend that the people shall
cease from their daily work, and, in
their homes or in their churches. meet
1evoutly to thank the Almighty for the
many and great blessings they have
received in the past, and to pray that

DIsfILLERY NOT DORMANT.

Editor Advertiser: I beg leave to
enter a protest against the statement
appearing in this mornings Advertiser
in reference to the okolehao distillery
on Hawaii 1t is entirely unwarranted
and incorrect.
The distillery is certainly shutting
down after month 5 run. sufficient
quantity of spirit having been produced
to enable practical tests, and deter
mine to some extent the commercial
value of the product here and else
where, and at the same time to permit
of several changes being made in the
plant with a view to increasing its eff
cheney.
The company has had troubles enough
in sooth. 1t has had to grope and feel
its way at every step, both material
and process being entirely new; and
in the circumstances it has done fairly
well, and has not the remotest idea of
going out of business as your item i'm
plies.
