THANKSGIVING ORDER ISSUED
MT. by PRESIDENT. r-
Taft Issues Official Proclamation Set
ting Aside November so as
the Day of Thanks to
be Observed.

President Taft has issued his an
nual Thanksgiving proclamation,
calling upon citizens of the United
States to celebrate Thursday, the
9th of November, next, as day of
Thanksgiving and prayer. The proc
lamation reads as follows:
"The people of this land having by
long sanction and practice set apart
toward the close of each passing year
day on which to cease from their
labors and assemble for the purpose
of giving praise to Him who is the
author of blessings they have enjoy
ed, it is my duty as chief executive to
designate at this time the day for the
fulfillment of this devout purpose.
"Our country has been signally
favored in many ways. The round of
the seasons has brought rich har-
vests. Our industries have thriven
far beyond our domestic needs, the
productions of our labor are daily
finding enlarged markets abroad.
We have been free from the curses
of pestilence, of famine and of war.
Our national counsels have furthered
the cause of peace in other lands and
the spirit of benevolence has brought
us into closer touch with other peo-
pies, to the strengthening of the
bonds of fellowship and good will
that link us to our comrades in the
universal brotherhood of nations.
"Strong in the sense of our own
right and inspired by as strong a
sense of the rights of others, We live
in peace and harmony with the
Dioh in tho nrioo1oco n0ccoc-
sion and abundant resources, where
with the unstinted bounty of God en-
