the case OF clubs who play in the worlds cham

is too prone to over estimate the profits from
baseball 1t is impossible for the ordinary lay
men to properly estimate the enormous expenses
attached to the conducting of big baseball club.
The cost of maintaining and operating the grand
stands and grounds alone is very great, but is
small compared with the salary list and the
travelling expenses of the players. In number
of the clubs this latter item exceeds one hundred

He gave us to understand that the Presidlnt has abolished dollar diplomacy and put monopoIies on the hike, which sounded queer to say the feast.

RECALLING THANKSGIVING
WASHINGTON Issued First Procamatlon-HisR Reference
to Foreign War Harrison and Wilson

favors of Almighty God, especially by
affording them an opportunity to es-
tablish form of government for
their safety and happiness.
In that proclamation Washington
expressed the hope that the national
government might constantly be a
government of wise, just and consti-
tutional laws" and also he asked the
blessings of heaven for the nations
of the world, adding, especially such
as have shown kindness to u.s.
Washington's reverence for "consti-
tutional laws" was thus clearly re-
fected even in a Thanksgiving proc
lamation, and possibly if something
of that reverence for constitutional
law could be instilled into the
hearts of the radicals of the present
day who are joining in the chorus,
hang the constitution" there would
be even more occasion for Thanks
giving in the good year 1914 than is
pointed out in the comprehensive proc
lamation of President Wilson.
So accustomed have we become to
the annual instance of the Harvest
Festival proclamation by the presi-
dent of the United States that we
have fallen into the general belief
that these proclamations have APP
peared annually ever since the first
one was put forth by George Wash
J ington, but a little search has devel-
oped that this is quite an error. The
records of the state department do
not show Thanksgiving proclama-
ton after the one of 1889 until 1875,
in the second term of General Wash
| ington. This second proclamation
set aside February 9th as the gay for
the nation to give thanks to God
1t is in this proclamation that he
! makes the reference to peace that is
echoed in different words, but like
spirit, in the Wilson administration
Having his eye upon the Frencvh rev.
+ olution and in words that might we'll
be used at the present time President
Washington said, when we review the
calamities which afflict so many other
nations the present condition of the
United States affords much matter OF
consolation and satisfaction"
The proclamation of John Adams
called for fast days, and Thomas JEFF
ferson issued none. James Madison
issued the first proclamation of
Thanksgiving since Washington, when
he set the second Thursday in Septem-
! Der. 1918, as day for national Thanks
giving, because the nation had enjoyed
so many blessings, despite the war
with England. Following this the
Thanksgiving festival became fairly
firmly fixed in the national calendar,
and the proclamations of the succeed
ing presidents reflect in very condens-
ed form the chief events in the nation s
history down to the opening of the
