Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-President Wilson for.
mally by proclamation designated
Thursday, Nov. 80, as Thanksgiving
day. The Presidents proclamauon
follows:
TT 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 bless
ings and mercies to us and the nation.
THE year that has elapsed since we
last observed our day OF thanksgiving
has been rich in blessings to us as a
people, but the whole face of the world
has been darkened by war. In the
midst of our peace and happiness. our
thoughts dwell with painful disquiet
upon the struggles and sufferings 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 cannot think of
our happiness without thinking of
their pitiful distress.
Now, therefore, !, Woodrow Will
son, President OF the United States of
America, do appoint Thursday, the
Both Of November, as day of national
thanksgiving and prayer and urge and
advise the people to resort to their
several places of worship 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 un-
stinted measure.
And | also urge and suggest our
duty, in this our day Of peace and
abundance. to think in deep sympathy
Of the stricken peoples of the world
upon whom the curse and terror Of
war has SO pitilessly fallen, and to
contribute out of our abundant means
to the relief OF their sufferings.
"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 suffering which
war has brought In its train.
"In witness whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
OF the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington.

year Of our Lord, 1916, and of the in
