was very anxious that his partner
also lead q good life and join the
church, but to all appeals he turned
away and finally when all other ar

In accordance with the beauti-
full and appropriate custom of
setting aside special day after
the harvests are garnered each
year as day upon which we
can make manifest our graft
tude to God for manifold bles-
sings, |, John Burke, governor
of the state of North Dakota, do
hereby designate Thursday, the
18th day of November as day
of general thanksgiving and
prayer throughout the state.
The year, now nearly gone, has
been one of peace and plenty
in state and nation; peace at
home and abroad, universal
peace; plenty almost beyond
the capacity of the country.
Providence has smiled upon us
with a bountiful harvest, and
has withheld pestilence and
disaster. Divine guidance is
lifting the whole people up to
a higher, healthier moral plane,
making the world better and
brighter and pointing to higher
ideals in public life. On this
coming Thanksgiving day let
us unite in praise and thanks
giving to God for all His kind
ness and nercies, and fervently
beseech Him to bless and pre-
serve our people and our coun-
try. ... .......

walks have been built in the
block that was burned, and
that new lamps have been
placed along the way so that
a citizen who is able to see or
walk half way straight may
stay out after six p. NJ, if he
so desires without parking"
his shins on the debris that 50
lately lay there; or run the risk
of falling in a cellar. Let us
give thanks that though the
wheat yield was light, that the
price is high. That though
the frost hit the pumpkin crop
the canned variety is just as
good, and our buying them
will help the farmer down east
who couldn't raise wheat to
save his life. Let us be thank
full that everybody is provided
with coal this winter and that
we will not have to risk our
immortal souls by cussing"
to keep warm as was the case
last winter. Those who are
fortunate enough to have
bank account may be thankful
that though our two banks roll
ed into one, and planted on
Wall Street, wouldn't make
shadow, are as solid as the rock
of Gibraltar; that the men be-
hind them are more celebrated
for their integrity than their
wealth, and it is not necessary
to stay awake nights worrying
for fear they may fail. Those
who have no bank accounts
may give thanks that, whereas
money is the root of all evil any
how, and is said to be a trans
mitter of contagious diseases,
that they are not taking any
risks. Lastly, let us be thank
full that while the people in the
east are bewailing the fact that
there are no turkeys for this
great American festal day, that
there are plenty of them in our
region, and no one among us
will be obliged to eat chicken
instead. Let us not be Sc blind

day was crossing the street

him. A minister of the gospel
