Lord Northcliffe, the great

Lord Northcliffe, the great
est journalist of this age, an
Englishman, bitterly criti-
cises the new war policies of
his country. Northcliffe is
right. Sir Douglas Haig is
the greatest general in Eng
land, and possibly of the
world, today. Gen. Haig
kills Germans, and that's
what all the allies have yet
to learn. If Gen. Haig had
an army big enough and suffi-
GENTLY equipped he would
whip the whole Austro-Ger-
man armies in six months.
And, by the way, had you
noticed that you rarely if
ever see Gen. Haig in the
"movies?" He has no time
for the film mamie is too
busy engaged in the humane
activities of killing Germans.
And, don't be surprised if
those who are becoming
jealous of Haig don't do
something to hamper him
just at the time he is killing
the most of the enemy. The
world at large has yet to
wake up to the real situation
of this terrible war.

Our President, recognizing a
time-honored custom, has named
Thursday, November twenty
nine, as a day of thanksgiving
and prayer and invites the peo-
pie of cur broad and prosperous
Land to abstain. on that day,
from their labors and draw clos
er, in a spirit of humility and re-
dedication of service to our God
and our Nation.
The fearful conflict now wag-
ing throughout the civilized
world is about to witness the
fourth anniversary of Thanks
giving Day, hallowed by our
Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth.
This year finds our Country in
the throes of the same struggle,
involving the destiny of Liberty.
We are chastened and quickened
in our love for our fellow men;
possessed of a new and more
vigorous outlook on humanity
and rendered more reasonable
and human by the beacon light
of Duty shed upon us by sacri-
fees at home and from the bat
tlefields afar.
Wherefore, l, Thomas E.
Campbell, Governor of Arizona,
do hereby proclaim Thursday,
the twenty ninth day of Novem-
Der, nineteen seventeen, as day
of thanks and prayer for Gods
blessing on our arms in America
and overseas.
And particularly on this day,
let us not forget the families
whose boards are desolated by
the absence of loved ones, called
to war. May we not invite them
to partake in our share of the
bounteous harvests of this year
and join in our solemn vows to
Almighty God, our King, to live
righteous, abstemious lives,
whereby the end of this
strife may be brought near
