THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
State OF Iowa, Executive Department
A Proclamation for Thanksgiving

4 DtdlC vi HIOWd, ELASSdllNS I|SPoA eAACA' "
/ A Proclamation for Thanksgiving
Day.
| The cycle of the seasons brings us
to the close of another autumn. Time
and the frost have ripened the grain,
| kissed the foliage to blushing
brown, and made us all mindful that
another cold, stern winter is upon us.
Sunshine and rain, natures aids to
a fertile soil, have augmented mans
feeble effort in toll in harvest abund-
ant, so that we have not only shelter,
food and clothing, but the luxuries
for physical and mental enjoyment,
and more, we have surplus so that
world and fill our treasury.
May / suggest that these bounties
are vouchsafed to us by Ruler Di
vine, loving. sympathetic, yet stern in
His command that the rule of law
shall prevail and be obeyed?
The present conflict of class
against class, interest against inter-
est, and individual against individual,
in wild confusion to possess, is out
of harmony with the season and time
in which we live. We have the noble
example of our young men and wom-
en- in the late war, giving and offer
ing their lives, a willing sacrifice for
the betterment of all our people. Can
we not blend this eXemplified spirit
with natures provident care into an
industrial tolerance, so that, hand in
hand in thankful mood. we all can
humbly recognize the guiding hand OF
a Superior Force?
Winters deafness and cold remind
us that our common enemy should
not be our fellow man. The worlds
cry today, from man to man, in palace
or howell, is for friendliness and toll
erance.
Now, therefore, l, w. L. Harding,
governor of Iowa, do hereby designate
and set apart 4
THURSDAY, NOV. 81 1919,
to be observed as day of Thanks
giving. and urge that all the people
of Iowa, with hearts full of gratitude
for generous harvest, and humble,
minds seeking forgiveness
for greed and avarice, assemble in
the churches and their homes on this
date, and there solemnly resolve that
from this day forth. 81 will. in the
larger sense, be my brothers keeper.
I will strive TO see the problem from
my neighbours viewpoint"
In testimony whereof, have here
unto set my hand and caused to be
affixed the great seal of the state, at
Des Moines.

Governor.
