THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

Vember &c, as Day Of Thanksgiv-
ina and Prayer.

Washington president has is
sued the annual Thanksgiving procla.
nation, setting apart Thursday, No
vember &c. as. "a day of thanksgiving
and prayer"
Year by year." declares the proc
lamation, this nation grows in
strength and worldly power. During
the century and quarter that has
elapsed since our entry into the cir.
Gle of Independent peoples we have
grown and prospered in material
things to degree never before
known, and not known in any other
country The thirteen colonies which
struggled along the seacOast OF the
Atlantic and were hemmed in but a
few miles west of tidewater by the
Indian haunted wilderness, have been
transformed into the mightiest repub-
lie which the world has ever seen.
Its domains stretch across the conti-
nent from one to the other OF the
greatest oceans and 1t exercises do
minion alike in the Arctic and tropic
realms. The growth in wealth and
population has surpassed even the
growth in territory. Nowhere else In
the world is the average of individual
comfort and material well-being as
high as in our fortunate land.
For the very reason that In ma
terial well being we have thus
abounded, we owe to the Almighty
TO show equal progress in moral and
spiritual things. With nation. as
with the individuals who make up a
nation, material well-being Is an indis-
pensable foundation. But the founda-
tion avails nothing by itself That life
is wasted and worse than wasted
which Is spent in piling, heap on heap,
those things which minister merely
30 the pleasure of the body and to the
power that rests only on wealth
Upon material well-being as a founda-
tion must be raised the structure OF
the lofty life of the spirit. II this ma
ton is properly to fulfill its great
mission and accomplish all we 80 ar
IDENTIFY hope and desire. The things
of the body are good the things Of
the intellect better but best Of all
things OF the soul, for in the nation,
as in the individual, in the long run
It is character that counts. Let us.
therefore, as a people, set our faces
resolutely against evil and with broad
charity, with friendliness and good
will toward all men, but with I'M
flinchiRg determination to smite
down wrong, strive with all the
strength that is given us for right
eousness in public and in private life"

Wilkesbarre, Pa.-Alderman Dono,
hue. the Solomon of Wilkesbarre, has

of them don't do any harm, but the
man that weds the cans makes a fatal
mistake. It's no disgrace to sip tho
