PRESIDENT WILSON'S
THANKSGIVING
PROCL LAMATION

President Wilson, ma m n g
Thursday, November 25, as the
date, has issued the following
Thanksgiving proclamation:
1T has long been the honored
custom of our people to turn in
the fruitful autumn of the year in
praise and thanksgiving to AL
mighty God for his many blessings
and mercies to us as a nation. The
year that is now drawing to a
close since we last observed our
day of national thanksgiving has
been, while a year of discipline be-
cause of the mighty forces of war
and of changes, which have dis
turbed the world, also year of
special blessing for US.
Another year of peace has been
vouchsafed US; another year in
which not only to take thought of
our duty to ourselves and to man
kind, but also to adjust ourselves
to the many responsibilities
thrust upon us by a war which has
involved almost the whole of Eu-
rope. We have been able to assert
our right and the rights of man
kind without the breach of friend
ship with the great nations with
whom we have had to deal; and
while we have asserted rights, we
have been able also to perform du-
ties and exercise privileges Of
succor and helpfulness which
should serve to demonstrate our
desire to make the offices of
friendship the means of truly dis
interested and unselfish service.
Our ability to serve all who could
avail themselves of our services in
the midst of crises has been in
creased, by gracious Providence,
by more and more abundant crops ;
our ample financial resources have
enabled us to study the markets of
the world and facilitate necessary
movements of commerce which the
war might have otherwise render
ed impossible; and our people have
come more and more to sober re-
alization of the part they have
been called upon to play in time
when all the world is shaken by
unparalleled distresses and disas-
ters. The extraordinary circum-
stances of such time has done
much to quicken our national con-
sciousness and deepen and con-
firm our condolences in the princi'
Piles of peace and freedom by
which we have always sought to be
guided. Out of darkness and per
plexity have come firmer counsels
of politics and clearer perception
of the essential welfare of the ma
ton. We have prospered while
other peoples were at war, bu
our prosperity has been vouch
safed us, we believe, only that WI
might the better perform the func
tions which war rendered it i'm
possible for them to perform.
"Now, therefore, l, Woodrow
Wilson, President of the Unite'
States of America, do hereby des
ignate Thursday, the twenty-fiftl
day of November next, as day o
Thanksgiving and prayer, and in
vite the people throughout the LAM
to cease their wonted occupation
and in their several homes an
places of worship, render thank
to Almighty God.

hereunto set my hand and cause
