 THANKSGIVING
 And i is recommended that on that day the people of Alaska do refrain from labor, so far as pos siblo, and unite in a general ob- servance of the day. As people, w9 should be thankful for many blessings. Our country continues to be at peace with the world; it stqnds out pre-eminently as the sanest of nations in the midst of the war conflict that engulfs the people of Europe, and which shocks the world. Through the many per DIcying situations that have arisen during tho year, and the many prob lens that have developed and de- mauded solution, this nation has been enabled to preserve and maln- tain peace without sacrificing prin- ciUles; the continuation of this colossal war, involving, as it does, the clash of fundamental political ideas, makes this especially q time for the searching of hearts for talk ing account of our stewardship as guardians Of those principles which are the foundation stones of the nation.
 We have had bountiful crops, we have had opportunities for service, for public enlightenment, and these have been used for the uplift and benefit of humanity; we have been favored beyond all precedent, and, while there is still much to be done for the betterment of conditions among our own people, there has been substantial progress along lines that make for the well-being, ana greater economic. freedom and happiness Of all the people of this republic.
