industry.

This is the day designated by the
Governor of this State to cease from
labor and toll and concentrate our
thoughts upon the blessings enjoyed
during the past. 1t is the habit and
custom of all christians in the United
States to assemble at place of wor-
ship and give thanks to the Redeemer
of the world by both song and prayer
for every blessing received during the
present year. Indeed, we have every
reason to be thankful that all things
are as well with us as they are. No
where in all the world has a people
been more blessed than they have in
these beautiful valleys of the West,
True some of US may have had
sorrows; some, no doubt, has lost
dear ones by death, but all of this is
part of the great plan of life and
death, for we are born to die and die
that we might live. In my judge
ment, we should not forget while we
worship and give thanks to our
Heavenly Father, that we owe a
debt of gratitude to each other; to
our friends, associates and neighbors
who have extended helping hand
and spoken words of encouragement
that has lightened our load and
brought sunshine to our hearts and
homes. We should not forget the
aged and infrm whose days have been
shortened by toll and hardships,
pioneering the country, making it
possible for US to live and enjoy the
fruits of their labor. Words are in
adequate to express and convey to
them what they have accomplished.
We appreciate your efforts and wish
you GOD sspeed, crowned with health
and enjoyment during your remain
ing years, and finally when the sum-
mons come you will be welcomed
back home with that laudible ap-
plause well done, thou good and
faithful servant, enter now into the
JOY of thy rest"
