Last Of the Preliminary Prayer Meet
ings to be Held at
Noon.

In the absence Of Rev. Neil. Rev.
Williams of the Congregational church
conducted the prayer meeting this
noon at the Y. M. C. A.
Rev. Williams took as the setting OF
his remarks the event where Christ
sent ont '.the twelve" upon their mis-.
sion Of healing. The lesson drawn,
brought out the essential fact, though
the. disciples used their own power
they could not reach the zenith oil
their accomplishments unless they
took the spirit of the Master with
them and trusted fully.
That this is true of the present day
and age there is no doubt, and to nc
complish the best results from the
Drum Forward Uplift Campaign,
each worker must take the spirit Oh
the Master with him.
THIS was the last of the prayer
meetings to be held at noon. That
these meetings have done grea
good, no one who attended will deny

Thanksgiving Proclamation
By Governor George w. Clarke

Christian people believe that the
affairs Of men and nations are
guided through the years by a Dr.
vine Mind unerringly toward ulti-
mate good.
AS the years glide into the past,
distinct progress in the betterment
OF human conditions Is noted,
broader and deeper humanitarian
ism is touching the lives OF men
throughout the world. all tending
slowly 1t may be toward the
realization OF the splendid vision Of
the brotherhood Of man which In
spired the prophets OF old and IL
lumined the teachings Of Jesus of
Nazareth. The value of man and
his well being in society have in
recent years become matters of
great concern. A wrong or injus-
tice to an Individual, 1t is now
clearly perceived, bears upon all
and shames society and the state.
s
Moral Force Is Greatest.
The greatest force in the world
is moral force and the moral SEN
timent Of the people is gathering
and growing into a tremendous
agency for Righteousness. The day
is coming, If it is not already here,
when the moral sense Of the people
and the law will forbid that any
man may be placed at disadvan-
tage except by his own conduct.
These are the things for which all
men should be devoutly thankful
upon state or national Thanks
giving day. It is impossible to
think OF great state or nation,
however tremendously rich it may
be, apart from a high minded, just
citizenship inspired by great ideals.
Great crops, bursting granaries and
banks full of money are fine things,
to be sure, for which we should be
very grateful but they are insult
ficient and in the end destroy I'M
less they become a basis for the
higher things.
