President Sets
Thanksgiving Day

President Wilson formally by proc
lamation designated Thursday, No
vember 30, as Thanksgiving Day.
Here follows the presidents proc.
lamation.
1T has long been the custom of
our people to turn in the fruitful
autumn of the year in praise and
thanksgiving to Almighty God for
His many blessings and mercies to
us and the nation
"The year that has elapsed since
we last observed our day of thanks
giving has been rich in blessings to
us as people, but the whole face of
the world has been darkened by war.
In the midst of our peace and happi-
ness our thoughts dwell with painful
disquiet on the struggles and suffer-
ings of the nations at war and of the
peoples upon whom war has brought
disaster without choice or possibility
of escape on their part. We can not
think of our happiness without think
ing of their pitiful distress.
Now, therefore, L, Woodrow Will
son, president of the United States
of America, do appoint Thursday, the
goth day of November, as a day of
national Thanksgiving and prayer,
and urge and advise the people to
resort to their several places OF wor-
ship on that day to render thanks to
Almighty God for the blessings of
peace and unbroken prosperity which
He has bestowed upon our beloved
country in such unstinted measure.
"And also urge and suggest our
duty in this, our day Of peace and
abundance, to think in deep sympa-
thy of the stricken peoples of the
world upon whom the curse and ter
ror of war has so pitilessly fallen,
and to contribute out of our abund-
ant means to the relief of their suf-
ferings.
"Our people could in no better
way show their real attitude towards
the present struggle of the nations
than by contributing out of their
abundance to the relief of the suffer-
ing which War has brought in his
train.
an witness whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be af-
fixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this 18th day of November, in the
year of our Lord, 1916, and of the
independence of the United States
the 141st.
BY the president:
WOODROW WILSON.
Robert Lansing,
Secretary of State"

At the End of the Good Road.


To see what really happens at the
end of the good road, public road
specialist of the department of agri-
culture recently had observations
made in different sections of the
country. The observers noted many
teamsters who drove
two loaded wagons, hitched one be-
hind the other, to the end of the
good road, and then found it neces-
sary to leave one wagon by the road
side to be returned for later, while
all the power of their teams was de-
voted to hauling a single wagon over
the unimproved road.
Farmers bound for the market fire.
quently were seen to haul wood and
similar products to the beginning Of
the good road, there dumping them
and returning for a second load.
When this arrived, the two loads
were consolidated and easily hauled
by a single team the remaining dis
tance to market over the improved
highway.
In one section of the country
where oxen are still used teamsters
were observed to bring their. loads
over the dirt roads with two or three
yokes of oxen. When the beginning
of the good roads was reached the
teamsters would unhitch the extra
animals and finish their Journey with
a single yoke

Practical Economy

Baking powders made from alum or
phosphate may be bought for trihe less
than Royal Baking Powder, which is made
from cream of tartar, derived from grapes.
Alum powders are not only cheap, but
they differ greatly in leavenng power.
If a cheap baking powder is used for a
fine cake and the cake turns out failure
there is waste of costly materials worth
more than whole can of the cheap bak
ing powder.
Royal Baking Powder produces the
finest food and its use therefore, results in
an actual saving.

COLONEL BACK
IN PARTY TO
BEAT WILSON
Politicians in Washington An
aIyze Conference of Lead
ers in New York.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-washing-
ton believes that Theodore Roosevelt
has returned to the Republican party
because Of his desire to accomplish
the defeat Of President Wilson at the
polls in November.
Such is the Interpretation placed
on the conference in, New York be-
tween Mr.. Roosevelt, former Senator
Root, of New York, Senator Lodge OF
Massachusetts, and Robert Bacon, for
mer American ambassador to France
Congressman Madden, Of Chicago, one
OF the foremost supporters of Senator
Sherman's presidential candidacy, had
this to say:
II think the conference indicates
that the eastern leaders want to nom-
mate Hughes. am quite certain that
while preparedness may have been the
chief theme, Hughes's name was dis
cussed in connection with the presi-
dency and preparedness. look for
the Hughes movement to take more
definite shape from now on"
Beat Wilson, Colonel's Desire.
This was the view generally ex-
pressed by the leaders. although they
would not allow their names to be at
tached to the view. One of them, q
man Of more than national import.
ance, said:
II think the greatest significance
may be attached to the conference. TIC
me 1t indicates that Roosevelt does not
desire the nomination this year unless
the Republican party feels that he
should take 1t in order to win over
Wilson. Although | was not of this
opinion week ago. I now think
Roosevelt is willing to cooperate with
the Republican party in an effort to de-
velop man OF sufficient strength To
beat Wilson.
Hughes seems to be the man on
whom all facuons-with one single
exception--can unite. Unless Mr.
Hughes declares himself absolutely
out of consideration in connection with
the nomination before the convention
meets in Chicago on June Z he will
be nominated there.
If Not Hughes, Then Roosevelt.
"If Mr.. Hughes does make a state.
ment to the effect he will decline the
nomination II rendered to him / can.

1.-THE one faction that is opposed tc
this program is that headed by Barnes
Of New York. It looks to me as Il
Barnes is holding the sack. While
the anti-Roosevelt men in the party
were united in 1912. practically all Of
them. except Barnes, are now ready
to cooperate with the colonel in re.
storing the party to its former high
plane Of efficiency and success. Mr.
Roosevelt has indicated his willing.
ness to work with the Republicans
even though 1t eliminates him from
consideration as candidate. 1t is
now up to the Republicans to co.
operate with him."
In Democratic circles much inter-
est was manifested in the Root-Roose-
velt-LodgeiBacon conference. Some
of the administration leaders admit
ted the conference indicates there will
be a united opposition to Mr.. Wilson.
Democrats See Hughes Ont.
The Democrats still believe, and the
belief apparently is founded on the

serves himself at cost of many lives
that nothing has been gained there
by, and that no satisfaction comes
to such person; but. the speaker said
It Is that thing In the human being
that Is most admired in another when
one makes heroic effort to save even
one life-the life of another-at the
risk Of his own, that Is growing into
the consciousness OF the people. He
stated that we are coming to the con.
viction more and more that in order
to actually save ourselves we
must save humanity. Therefore.
Mr.. Hilton stated, "the one and most
important thing in labor unions is
the practice of social preservation in
stead Of self preservation. Labor I'M
ions are the outward expression Of
that growing desire for self preserva-
tion."
Intense Interest.
The evening meeting was we'll at
tended and the same intense interest
displayed in the afternoon meeting
prevailed in the session last evening,
in which Thomas Finn, general or
ganizer Of the American Federation
Of Labor. was the chief speaker, and
his remarks were directed toward the
creation of strong cohesive and
manly independence of the workers
of this city who are not yet members
Of any union.

sic and singing enlivened the even
ing meeting and made of 1t At end
