WILSON GIVES
THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
Sets Aside Thursday, Nov. 25,
for A nual 0bserv.

WASH : TON. Nov. 12.-Pres't
Wilson issued his Thanksgiving
proclamation Friday night, saying
that "in plenty, security and peace.
our .virtuous and self-reliant people
face the future" and setting aside
Thursday, Nov. 25. for the usual
observance. The text follows:
The season approaches when It
behoOves US to turn from the dis
fractions and preoccupations Of our
daily life. that we may contemplate
the mercies which have been
vouchsafed TO US. and render heart
felt and unfeigned thanks unto God
for His manifold goodness.
This is an old observance Of the
American people, deeply imbedded
In our thought and habit. The bur-
dens and stresses OF life have their
own insistence.
Cause For Thanksgiving.
we have abundant cause for
Thanksgiving. The LESSONS OF the
war are rapidly healing; the great
army Of freemen which America
sent to the defense Of liberty, re-
turning to the grateful embrace or
the nation, has resumed the useful
pursuits OF peace, as simply and as
promptly as IL rushed to arms IN
obedience 10 the country's call. The
equal justice OF our laws has re-
ceived steady vindication in the sup
port OF a law-abiding people against
various and sinister attacks which
reflected only the baser agitations or
war, now happily passing.
'In plenty, security ano. peace, our
virtuous and self-reliant people face
the future, It's duties and It's oppor-
tunities. May we have vision TO dis
Germ our duties; the strength, both
OF hand and resolve, to discharge
them; and the soundness OF heart 10
realize that the truest opportunities
are those OF service.
Should Give Thanks.
"In a spirit then, OF devotion and
stewardship We should give thanks
in our hearts, and dedicate ourselves
to the service OF Gods merciful and
loving purposes to his children.
Wherefore, 7. Woodrow Wilson.
president OF the United States OF
America. do hereby designate
Thursday. the twenty-fifth day of
November next, as day Of thanks
giving and prayer and ! call upon
my cOuntrymen TO cease from their
ordinary tasks and avocations upon
that day, giving il up to the remem-
brance OF God and HIS blessings,
and their dutiful and grateful &C
acknowledgements"
