THANKSGIVING DAY, 1913.
Proclamation by President Woodrow
WilsOn.-Date, Thursday,
Nov. 9th,

The season is at hand in which it
has been our long respected custom
as a people to turn in praise and
thanksgiving to Almighty God for
His manifold mercies and blessings
to us as nation. The year that has
Just passed has been marked in Pc
culiar degree by manifestations OF
His providence.
We have not only had peace
throughout our own borders and with
the nations of the world, but that
peace has been frightened by con-
stantly multiplying evidences OF gem
uine friendship, of mutual sympathy
and understanding, and of the happy
operation of many elevating in
f1uences both OF ideals and OF prac-
tice.
The nation has been prosperous
not only but has proved its capacity
to take calm counsel amidst the rapid
movement of affairs and deal with
it's own life in spirit OF candor,
righteousness and comfy. We have
seen the practical completion OF
great work at the lsthmus Of Panama
which not only exemplifles the ma
tons abundant resources TO accom-
plish what it will, and the distin-
guished skill and capacity Of its pub
| lie servants, but also promises the be-
ginning of new age, OF new facts
new neighbors, new sympathies. new
bonds. and new achievements OF CO.
! operation and peace.
Righteousness eXalteth nation
and 'peace on earth, good VIII to-
ward men, furnish the only founda-
lions upon which can be built the
lasting achievements of the human
spirit. The year has brought us
the satisfaction Of work we'll done
and fresh visions of our duty which
will make the work of the future
better still.
Now, therefore, l, Woodrow Will
son, President of the United States
of America, do hereby designate
Thursday, the 9th of November next
as day of Thanksgiving and prayer
and invite the people throughout the
land to cease from their wonted &C.
equations and in their several homes
and places of worship render thanks
to Almighty God.
In witness whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be affix-
ed
Done at the City of Washington
i this 23rd day of October, in the year
of our Lord one thousand and nine

HUNGARIAN Ex1LEs IN IOWA.
Interesting Community in Decatur
County in Early Days.

Among the many small towns
which once existed in Iowa but which
have long since disappeared from the
map was the interesting community
OF New Buda in Decatur county.
This little settlement was founded by
Hungarian exiles who fled from the
mother country after the Inflated
revolution of 1854. These refugees
were not of the Hungarian peasant
type, rs are the immigrants who
have since t1ocked to the mines and
factories of America" says Miss Lii
liam May Wilson in the October num-
Der of the Iowa Journal of History
Historic al Society of Iowa. Instead,
they were men of gentle birth and
belonged to the old Magyar stock,
which, SIN centuries before, had CIV
en- 10 Hungary a written constitution
and had made it an elective mon
archy' In fact the little colony Of
New Buda was made up chiefly of
men who had been prominent in the
Hungarian revolution under the ia
nous kossuth.
las permanent settlement, how
ever says Hiss Wilson, New Buda
was not a success. It's founders, as a
rule, were exceedingly impractical
and lacked the qualities necessary for
developing the resources Of new
country Consequently as the years
went by the settlers gradually moved
away until the town entirely disap-
peared. Tough the name New Duda
is perpetuated in a township in De-
catur county.
