Austro- German forces in northern
Italy have crossed the Livenza river
and in outfanking operations on the
middle Tagiiamento have captured
1900 Italian troops, among them a
general.
Again a brigade of Italian grenadiers
were covered with glory when they
held the enemy until the larger part
Of the Italian army escaped.
GAIA, the Palestine city made IA
nous by the exploits of Samson, fell
into the hands of the British.
Only eight large British steamships
were sunk by U-boats the past week.
Germans have crossed the line of
the Tagliamento on the Italian front
and are pushing westward. Berlin
reported that 5000 prisoners and
some guns were captured at the
crossing, which was made north Of
Pinzano. Heavy artillery fire was
heard on both banks of the river, and
at the same time the Germans began
an attack from the Trentino, farther
west.
Reports from Germany indicate
that the pan-Germans are using the
victory on the Italian front to force a
revision of the milder German peace
terms as represented in the pope's
late proposals.
Making their first attack on Cen
eral Pershing's troops at the front,
the Germans killed three Americans,
wounded five and captured twelve.
The allies are ready to save Italy,
said Secretary Baker.

PRESIDENT WILSON PRoCLAlMs
NOV. 2e FOR WORSHIP.
Says U. S. Has Ample Supplies Fof
Ourselves and Allies If Eco
nomically Used. |

shington.-Pointing out that In
the opportunity Ito serve mankind as
we once served ourselves in the great
day of our Declaration Of Independ.
ence," the nation has just cause to be
grateful, President Wilson Issued his
Thanksgiving proclamation.
He calls upon the people to cease
their ordinary occupations on Thurs
day, November 20, and devote them
selves to worship. The proclamation
follows:
'It has long been the honored Gus.
tom of our people to turn in the fruit
full autumn of the year in praise and
THANKSGIVING to Almighty God for his
many blessings and mercies to us as a
nation. That custom we can follow
now, even in the midst of the tragedy
of world shaken by war and I'M
measurable disaster, in the midst OF
sorrow and great peril, because even
amidst the darkness that has gathered
about us we can see the great bless
ings God has bestowed upon us, bless
ings that are better than mere peace
of mind and prosperity Of enterprise.
1--WE have been given the opportuni'
ty to serve mankind as we once serV'
ed ourselves in the great day Of our
Declaration Of independence, by tax
ing up arms against tyranny that
threatened to master and debase men
everywhere and joining with other
free peoples in demanding for all the
nations of the world what we then de-
manded and obtained for ourselves.
"In this day of the revelation of our
duty not only to defend our own rights
as a nation, but to defend also the
rights of free men throughout the
world, there has been vouchsafed us
in full and inspiring measure the res
olution and spirit of united action.
1--WE have been brought to one MIND
and purpose. A new vigor of common
counsel and common action has peer
revealed to US. We should especially
thank God that in such circumstances.
in the midst of the greatest enterprise
the spirits of men have ever entered
upon, we have, if we but observe
reasonable and practicable economy
abundance with which to supply the
needs of those associated with us as
well as our own. A new light shines
about us. The great duties of new
day awaken a new and greater nation
al spirit in us. We shall never again
be divided or wonder what stuff we
are made Of.
"And while we render thanks for
these things let us pray Almighty God
that in all humbleness of spirit we
NAV look always to him for guidance;
that we may be kept constant in the
spirit and purpose of service; that by
his grace our minds may be directed
and our hands strengthened, and that
in his good time liberty and security
and peace and the comradeship of
common justice may be vouchsafed all
the nations of the earth.
Wherefore, l, Woodrow Wilson,
president of the United States OF
America, do hereby designate Thurs
day, the 29th day of November next,
as a day of thanksgiving and prayer.
and invite the people throughout the
land to cease upon that day from their
ordinary occupations and in their sew.
eral homes and places of worship to
render thanks to God, the great ruler
OF nations" %
