THANKSGIVING PUT ON
CALENDAR BY WOMAN
Day Fixed by President Lincoln
at Suggestion of Mrs. Hale,
Who Lived Here

While shouting at tho football games and
indulging in their turkey and pumpkin pie,
residents OF this city may remember that II
was a Philadelphia woman who caused the
establishment of the last Thursday in Mo-
vembcr as Thanksgiving Day.
She was Mrs Sarah Josepha Hale Wild
owed mother Of children. who supported her
family by publishing the Ladies' Magazine
and writing poems. Thanksgiving had been
celebrated as early as 1923 by the Puritans.
II was not until 1854 that definite and
permanent time was fixed for the holiday,
President Lincoln then issued proclama-
tton determining the date Of the celebration,
in accordance with Mrs Hale's suggestion.
She had agitated such action in the adminis-
tratiou 0f several previous Presidents and
also petltoned the Governors Of several
states with that purpose but without avail.
While Mrs. Hale could not be called a
suffraglst with complete accuracy she was
noted for her activities TO obtain the In
telleCtual and political advancement OF
women. She was one Of the first Americans
to advocate the general employment OF
women as teachers In the public schools
and she urged in her writings the establish.
ment of seminares to prepare women for
careers in pedagogy and other professions.
Mrs. Hale was born in Newport, n. H.,
but she lived here for many years and died
in this city In April, 1879 She was pres.
dent of the Philadelphia branch OF the
Women's Missionary Society for Heather
Lands and founded in this city the Ladies'
Medical Missionary Society
