100 Years Ago Today

One hundred years ago today the peo-
pie of New England paused in their
ordinary pursuits of business and pleas
ure and observed the day as a day of
thanksgiving. The first observance of
a day of thanksgiving in America was
that of the Pilgrims in 1921. For many
years the practice of observing Thanks
giving day in the autumn of every year
was confined to New England, but later
the custom spread throughout the coun-
try, the president usually appointing
the last Thursday in November as a
day for national thanksgiving. In 1913
Thanksgiving day was observed on
Thursday Just as it is nowadays, but
this was merely q coincidence, as it was
not until 1929 that New England fixed
upon the last Thursday in November
for Thanksgiving day.

must go through before rendering aid
to wounded soldiers from foreign
nation in a neutral country" said Dr.
Charles +. Braden, secretary of the FL
Paso branch.
Under the rules Of the international
association of Red Cross examinations
formed at Geneva, the Red Cross OF
a neutral country can receive and care
for wounded soldiers from a warning
country, only after some person in au-
thority in the warning country makes
an appeal Tor such assistance, and
after the authorities of the neutral
country have given their sanction The
appeal and the sanction must be re-
ceived before it is possible to receive
wounded soldiers from .JuareZ and treat
them on American soil.'
