One hundred and eighty-nine au'

mouth proclaimed the first ThanksSiv.
Ing Day The first feast OF the family
grew out of deliverance from peril.
The summer of 1923 brought a
drought; the skies were like iron and
the earth dry as ashes; the crops
were a total failure; the friendly In.
dians also went beyond the Hudson
in pursuit of game. and the deer and
wild birds retreated into the forests OF
New York. But when the little col
ony was threatened with starvation a
good ship appeared in the harbor,
bringing food for the winter 1t hap.
pened also that very day Miles Stan
dish and his hunters returned after a
fortnight's absence. bringing news that
the wild game was again moving east
toward the ocean. And so the fasting
was turned to feasting, and the peril
to peace. In recognition Of their de,
iverance the great Thanksgiving Day
was held. And from that providential
event has come the most genial and
beautiful of all American customs, the
festival of the family-Thanksgi
Day

PROCLAMATION

DAKOTA GOVERNOR CALLS At.
TENTiON TO THANkSGIV-
ING DAY.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol City, the Various
State Institutions and From
Many Different Parts Of
the Sunshine State.

Pierre-Gov Vessey has issued the
following Thanksgiving proclamation:
State of South Dakota Executive
Chambers. A Proclamation: In har-
money with the proclamation OF the
president of the United States, and
believing that those institutions and
worthy customs which have been ce-
mented and held together through
the years by universal appreciation and
consent; which have been observed
among our people since the Organiza-
ton of our government and which
have been preserved and transmitted
unto our generation with luster bright
and undimmed, should not perish, |,
Il. S. VeSsey, governor OF the state or
South Dakota, do hereby set apart
and appoint Thursday, the 2Sth day Of
November, in the year Of our Lord
1912, as a day of thanksgiving and
prayer throughout the state, and earn
estly recommend the observance Of
that day in accordance with the spirit
and intention of the pilgrim fathers
pie of public acknowledgment of the
gracious mercies and tender care of
God
We in South Dakota find that we
have abundant cause for rejoicing and
many and increasing reasons for
thankfulneSs, for each and every year
of our state life continues and aug
ments that advance which within the
past two decades has carried us from
a position of new and untried begin
nings to one of affluence and power.
The poverty and hardships that inev-
itably are the portion of those con-
cerned with the settlement Of a new
territory are in these later years Of
plenty and prosperity forgotten, and
today men of all sorts and conditions
are finding among us a life OF com
fort and freedom from want.
AS we have advanced materially SO
also have we gone forward morally
and intellectually, until today it is a
matter of general recognition that in
no community is there to be found
u happier HOSpildHIy, WlutI tOleI
ance or sweeter sympathy than that
which exists among the people of our
own beloved commonwealth.
And so let us give thanks to the AL
mighty and as we gather about the
hearthstone or in our customary place
of public worship let us on behalf of
South Dakota send high our express
siOns of gratitude. not for the past, so
treasured. nor for the future, which
bids so fair: not for what once was
although we love the history Of our
statehood; not for what is to below
ever joyfully we anticipate our future
greatness, but for just what is-a
grand and glorious present
In witness whereof | have hereuntO
set my hand and caused to be affixed
the great seal of the state of South
Dakota this 14th day of November,

IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS
Is the Supreme Cause for
Thanksgiving.

Abundant harvests, national pros
perity, peace and security under a
government Of our own choice-thesr
are certainly grounds for thanksgiv
ing in which every citizen can and
should take part. But it is quite
possible-in fact it is a common mis-
take-to accentuate these and other
outward blessings ia such a way as
to make it appear as If. without them.
we would as nation have little or
no ground for thanksgiving; whereas
the strongest reason for universal
thanksgiving would still remain if
none Of these were present.
The knowledge that God loves the
world, that he reigns supreme and
controls all forces, and is overruling
all events to the ultimate overthrow
OF everything that is evil and estab-
lishment of absolute righteousness
that is the supreme cause for thanks
giving in as far as the things Of this
world are concerned.
But national thanksgiving can nev.
er be anything more than a hollow
sham unless the hearts of the wOr.
shippers are warmed by personal
gratitude to God for his personal
love and care and protection, and for
the precious and exceeding great
promises which he has given us. No
heart can be truly grateful to God
that has not learned to trust God and
to see his hand and his love in all
the experiences of life.

HurOn-What is known as the

Immediately displace the proc mt pri-
mary law, and may have some bearing
upon the selection of a United States

BY the provisions of the new law it is
held that members of the legislature
will be absolved from obligation to
vote for Dean Sterling. who received
the Endorsement for United States sen

ROYALTY WELCOMES THE
AMERICAN SETTLER
HIS ROYAL HiGHNESs, THE DUKE
OF cONNAUGHT, WELCOMES
AMERICANS TO CANADA.

II was a happy speech, that on that
beautiful October day. the Duke OF
Connaught. Governor-General OF Can
ada. made at Macleod, Alberta. It
was an Opportune speech, heartful
and resonant with good fellowship.
And. as it was specially intended for
American ears, the audience, COM
prised largely Of so many American
settlers in Canada, the time and place
could not have been better chosen.
1t was In reply to an address Of well
come rendered to him at the pretty
city Of Macleod. with the foothills Of
the Rockies as setting, and the
great wheat fields between, and in
fact all around the place as the fore
ground. that His Highness, true to the
best interests Of the country and to-
those Of the Americans who chooses
to make Canada their home. said in
part:
Il am we'll aware that among those
whom l am now addressing, there are
very great proportion who were not
born under the British flag. Most OF
these will have realized by now that
residence under that flag implies no
disabilities. All we ask is that the
laws of Canada should be obeyed.
with this provision every one is
free to come and go, to marry. to live
and to die as seems best to him, and
as it pleases Providence.
'We bring no pressure to bear on
anyone to adopt the Canadian nation
ality, for we do not value citizenship
which is obtained under compulsion.i
"Our American cousins are welcomes
from over the border. Thrice we well
come our Canadian and British broth
ers. who return to the Union Jack, aft
er living under the Stars and Stripes.
History is repeating itself. For
many years hundreds of young Brit
lshers have sought fortune in the
western States. Time has brought
about change. and the tide has set
in the other direction. bringing across
the frontier numbers Of our neighbors
to whom we are glad to return hos
pitalities.
Zone Of the chief dispensers Of such
hospitality In proportion to Its popu-
Iation has. as we have said, changed
Its character from an important cat
tie town to thriving wheat producing
area.
What 1t has lost from the pictur-
esque point Of view. 1t has gained in
the material side, and I wish, In con-
clusion, to express the hope that the
prosperity which has evinced itself
here for the past ten years, may con-
tinue undated In the future"
There is no reason why at hum
dred places on this educative. instruct
i've and interesting trip Of His Royal
Highness he might not have express
ed himself in the same terms. and on
each occasion, addressed large gather
lngs VI Americans who are now set
tied on the prairies Of Western Cana
