Thanksgiving Day.

The old New England festival OF
THANKSGIVING falls today. and where
ever in the world the influence of the
New England spirit is felt the day is
being observed in the time-honored
manner. Dating here in New England
from the first harvest season of the
PILGRIMS and as national holiday from
the dark period of the war FOR the
Union, it is an occasion dear to the
American heart and to the American
home. Fast day, the other Pill
grim festival, is passing away and
is now little more than memory. But
Thanksgiving, after almost three CEN
turtles of observance shows no signs OF
suffering from neglect. With Independ-
ence day and Memorial day it ranks
as a permanent and peculiarly Amer
lean holiday. unique to this country
and typical of American life and senti-
|ment.
1t is welcomed with each returning
year as a social and religious festival
not religious 50 much in the sense Of
church worship as in the sense that the
thoughtful heart recounts it's many
blessings and renders thanks to the
Great Giver of them all. Thanksgiv-
|ing's chief distinction is that il DENT
onstrates the New England love of
home and family. The day is inevita-
bly, sad to the older people, for it em-
phasizes the tragedy Of the empty
chair, but it has much OF cheer for
them too; and for the younger people it
is merry and memorable beyond most
Of the days of the year. From far and
near the wandering sons and daughters
return TO the old home and the reunion
lights the pathway of many weeks that
follow.

Thinos Are Looking Brighter.

Whatever dark clouds have been up
on the financial horizon Of late are
fast disappearing. FROM New York
and the other great cities come reports
lof returning confidence. The panic
fears are dying out. The banks are no
Longer in constant terror of a run by
lfrenzied and unreasoning depositors.
Men who drew out their deposits be-
cause they thought the banks were I'M
sound are recovering their sanity and
putting their money back in the banks.
Chicago announces that it is ready to
resume normal banking conditions as
soon as New York does SO. The
Twelfth Ward Bank, a State concern.
| in New York, has reopened. The heads;
| of the great savings banks there report
uniformly that money is coming back.
| The timid depOsitOrs who gave notice
of withdrawal of funds have recovered
from their fright and are revOking
their notices. One bank got 5000
notices of revocation in one days mail.
The Union Dime Savings Bank had re-
ceived notices of withdrawal which
would have taken out 100000; the re-
vocations are coming in so fast now
that the president thinks that hardly
500, 900 will be demanded.
This recovery of common sense is n
good indication that the financial
furry will soon pass by. Whatever its
-over-speculation, too great an
extension of credit. fear of restrictive
measures on the part of the great cor
porate interests or too much water in
the stocksjt has been a Wall street
storm, a rich mans panic. Every ma
terial condition of the country argues
prosperity. Business generally is in
good shape-or was until things broke
loose i'm New York. Money was never
more plentiful, if it will come out of
hiding; the per capita circulation is
greater now than ever. There is no
good reason for prolonged panic. There
is no reason to fear hard times. Bust
ness simply waits the assurance that
the frightened depositor will not con-
tract the currency by withdrawing his
money from use, and that the banks
also somewhat panic stricken-will re-
sumo normal methods. In other words,
just as soon as business can know that
it can get money to go on with it will
go.

THE PROCLAMATION.
The Presidents Call to the People t
Observe Thanksgiving Day.

"Once again the season of the year
has come when, in accordance with the
custom Of our forefathers for genera
tons past, the President appoints a
day as the especial occasion for all our
people TO give praise and Thanksgiving
to God.
During the past year we have been
free from famine frnm pestllenca. from
war. We are at peac, with all the rest
of mankind.
"Our natural reSOu 'teS are at least
as great as those of any other nation.
We believe that in ability to develop
and take advantage Of the resources
the average man of this nation
stands at least as high as the averag e
man of any other.
Nowhere else in the world is there
such ain opportunity for a 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. Into our care
the ten talents have been entrusted,
and we are to be pardoned 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 peoples, prosperity has been
frausht with danger and it behoOves
Us to beseech the Giver of all things
that we may not fall into love Of ease
and luxury; that We may not lose our
sense of moral responsibility; that we
may not forget our duty to God and
to cur neighbor.
"a great democracy like ours; a
democracy based upon the principles
of orderly liberty can be perpetuated
only, if in the heart Of the ordinary
citizen there dwells a keen sense OF
righteousness. We should earnestly
pray that this spirit of righteousness
and justice may grow even greater in
the hearts of all of us anG that our
souls may he inclined evermore both

ness and tenderness, for loving kind

"Now. therefore. I. Theodore ISoose
welt, President of the United States
do set apart Thursday. the 2Sth day O
November as a day of general thanks

recommend that the people shall ceas
