THE NEW THANKSGIVING

The resolution introduced into the
French Chamber of deputies that steps
be taken TO have November IL de-
clared an international holiday comes
with especial interest to Americans,
who have from the earliest times had
a Thanksgiving day in November.
The date of the signing of the armis-
tice with Germany is due TO become
one of the most famous dates in his
tory. The event which it celebrates
IS one for which all the peoples of the
earth will have cause for gratitude.
Why could Il not be combined in some
way with the American Thanksgiving?
Thursday has proved itself con-
venient day for the harvest celebra-
ton, but there is nothing sacred about
the last Thursday i'm November rather
than the second or third. To move
the one holiday back little farther
from Christmas would perhaps be an
advantage in several ways. The
Thursday nearest to November IL
might be chosen in future for the joint
commemoration.
For the signing of the armistice is
connected in our minds first of all with
great thankfulness. Thankfulness
for peace, for plenty. for freedom. as
surance that there will be food for the
world. are all tied up in it, And these
are just such causes as led the Pill
grims to set aside day of grateful
prayer and jollity.

THANKSGIVING

There is no need for any heart
searching TO bring up reasons for
thankfulness this year The air is full
OF them. the universe throbs with
them.
The war is practically over, our
ships may safely sail the seas, there is
food enough for all the world, the still
ness OF Joy succeeds the thunders of
battle
But the greatest reason of all lies a
little under the surface
We should be thankful, most OF all,
for Opportunity.
The war had the great merit of
shaking things up, unsettling old pre-
JUDGES, driving people to think new
thoughts. TO try new experiments. to
find out how much better We all work
together than against each other. how
much more we get done that way and
how much more happily.
The old, battered, ratty, unsanitary
buildings are heaps OF dust

fiimsy, scatter-brained way? Or shall
we take TO heart these lessons of the
war and make a new world that shall
be in every way better?
The great thing before us is the OPP
portunity 10 go ahead in ways of wis
dom and thoughtfulness. Shall we
ever want 10 waste again with the old
lavish heedlessness?
We may want to ease up the strains
a bit here and there, but surely we
will buy with greater care for wear
ing quality, produce better fabrics,
cook more sensibly than ever before.
Surely we will want to carry the great
bond OF cooperation which has pro-
duced such magnificent results. Sure
ly we will want TO carry the lift of the
spirit which self-denial and discipline
for a great purpose bring. Surely we
do not want that glorious faith in each
other to give way TO the old distrust
and provincialism.
The old ways are gone. Let us be
thankful first of all that we have the
opportunity to make the new ones
worthier and happier

GERMAN HANDS

The moral standing of Germany With
the rest of the world is epitomized in
an incident of the German feet sur
render The flower OF the German
navy-that navy with which the en-
pire-builders of Prussia had dreamed
of conQuering the world~-had steamed
in silence between two guardian lanes
of British, French and American war
ships. Then, in silence still unbroken.
the German officers came aboard the
allied vessels to make the formal prof
fers of surrender.
There was no ceremony such as is
ordinarily shown an honorable oppon-
emit There was not one word of cour-
tesy to lessen the bitterness OF humi-
liation. There was nothing but con-
temptuous. eloquent silence.
Two of the German officers wept
Another raised his hand to shake with
a British officer The latter refused.
The Germans hand fell Imply to his
side. He turned away grimly mutter-
ing something ia his native tongue.
There was innocent blood on that
hand

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION

Governor Harrington has issued his
Thanksgiving proclamation in which
he. says:
THE President of the United States,
by proclamation. has set apart Thurs
day, the twenty eighth day of Novem-
Der, 1918, as day of national thanks
giving and prayer. The war for the
preservation of the rights of man
kind, in which our nation has been en-
gagged and in which our own gallant
armies have won for us and for them
selves immortal glory, has ended in
complete and glorious triumph more
quickly than we dared hove for, and
we hope the whole world may soon
enjoy the blessings of a just and right
eous peace which has been made pos
sible by our success in arms.
I'm all this work Maryland and the
people of Maryland have splendidly
done their part. More than fifty thous-
and of the flower of Maryland man
hood are in the armed service OF our
country. Some of them have fallen.
Their glory is imperishable and we of
Maryland should do all in our power
to show we value the sacrifice which
they have made by consecrating our
selves anew to better and nobler serv-
ice for our State and nation and to a
higher efficiency and standard in all
the demands of our citizenship. Mary
land soldiers and sailors have magni-
ticently done their duty and conferred
upon their State fame and honor
which will never pass away. The
women of Maryland have done won
derful work and have lived up to the
best traditions of the Maryland home
while participating more than at any
other time in our history in all the
practical activities that have helped
/ in elevating the morale of the people
and in contributing in every way and
form towards aiding and supporting
all the forces that won the war and
kept our Government strong. For all
of these things, for the loyalty and in
dustry of our workers. for the abund-
ance of our crops, for the safety and
prosperity OF our State. and for in
Vulnerable blessings we should rem
der thanks, and we should seek Divine
mercy and forgiveness for our errors
and pray for guidance in our daily
lives and in the problems of readjust-
ment and reconstruction resulting
from the great war"
The Governor proclaims the day a
legal holiday and earnestly entreats
that the day be observed in prayer and
Thanksgiving and in praise Ito the
Giver of every good and perfect gift
for the triumph of American arms in
the war for right, for the glorious
heroism of Maryland troops, for the
return of seed-time harvest and for
the other blessings of His merciful
providence bestowed upon this State
and nation. beseeching Him to con-
tinue His loving kindness to us in the
days that are yet to come in solving
the great questions that must now
arise for proper solution and read
justment"
