Thanksgiving Hymn
Well Liked at Birth
But Now Forgotten

a The first presidential Thanksgiving
proclamation was that Of President
Washington in 1859 on the occasion
of the adoption Of the Constitution,
the day, c%uriously enough, being No
vember 26-the date Of celebration of
1868. This latter was the real fore
runner Of u national Thanksgiving
day. Occasional and special times of
thanksgiving had often been appoint
ed by different Presidents, but the year
1858, famous for it's decisive national
victories, marked also the beginning
of the annual series of Thanksgiving
days.
The great victories Of Gettysburg
and V%icksburg were really the cause
of Lincofn's proclamation, and his ex-
ample has been followed by all his
successors until the annual festival
has become one of our national insti-
tutions.
The proclamation of 1868 YVES re-
markable as the first of a series. ex-
tending now W. fifty years. 1t was
also noticeable because it was the oc-
casion of a thanksgiving hymn by the
famous Reverend Doctor Muhlenburg
Of ST. Luke's hospital, New York city.
He is well known as the author of the
familiar hymn, 81 Would Not Live AL
way" and a poet Of no small repute.
Mr.. Lincoln's glowing words met his
eye and struck a responsive chord in
his heart. A noble Thanksgiving
hymn was the result, a hymn which at
the time vas often sung, but is now
comparatively forgotten. 1t was pub
lished with appropriate music, and
even yet is suitable for use on similar
occasions.
The hymn contains nine stanzas,
with chorus. and takes up in order the
various causes for thanksgiving men,
toned in Mr.. Lincoln's proclamation.
The original title was "Give Thanks
All Ye People," the first verse being
as follows:
Give thanks. all We people, give thanks
to the Lord,
Allelnias of freedom with Joyful accord;
Let the East and the West, North and
South roll along,
Sea-, mountain n prairie. one thanks
giving song.
Give thanks, all We people. give thanks te
the Lord,
Alleluias of freedom. with joyful accord
As the hymn was suggested by Mr.,
Lincoln's call upon the nation to give

four verses that could have been omit
ted with advantage. Otherwise it
might have stuck and would have had
a fair chance of success; for the mu-
sic, which we know only by the eye,
and never heard in a public perform
ance, appeared to have a look of prom
ise."
The next known reference to this
hymn occurs in connection with the
observance of the fftieth c%onvocation
of the University of Illinois, on No
vember 20, 1913. The Alumni Quar-
terly says: Touches Of the unusual
were added to the exercises by the
singing OF a forgotten hymn, dedicated
TO Lincoln in 1868 by Reverend Doctor
Muhlenburg. The hymn, which had
not previously been sung in public, was
discovered by Professor Dodge in a
contemporary issue Of the New York
Tribune"

COMMUNICATION.
Editor Farmers Press -

LAVA ~ AASoS
I went to Hannah the other day
on business and stayed over night
and while waiting for the train the
next morning happened to stop al
the gossip corner and listened to the
crowd that were thrashing out the
problems of the world and especially
of the Nonpartisan League. I heard
about the proposed examination of
the Bank of North Dakota to which
the l. V. AS are looking forward
with great glee. Last summer when
Cathro offered The Banking Associa.
tion of North Dakota to select two
of their members to examine the
bank. They did not dare to take
him up on it; they knew that the
bank had been conducted in a good
business like way and so did every
one else, they claim that loans
made in the western part of the state
have been too high. While we all
know that in a few cases the loans
may look high, we also know that
the loans are way below the real
valuation of the land, and in those
cases the bank was saving the homes
of widows and orphans from the land
sharks. And the land sharks got
spaeved because OF being unable to
pursue the same course as they had
done in the eastern part of the state.
Some of those were widows of our
soldiers that had been killed in the
a The bank vas created for just
such a purpose, and if it had not
been for those AZ soulless taxpayers,
the spectators would have to quit
raking in the homes of the farmers
of North Dakota for less than half
value. One of the grievances of the
1. V. A. is that Kositzky was not
allowed last summer to go in and
loot the bank as they did with the
Scandnayian-American bank last fall,
But the humorous thing is that no
matter what his report is nobody
will believe such a political sneak as
Kositzky. Also the 1. V. AS have
some fshy story about ]. M. Baer
getting loan on some of his land.
We know there are thousands of
farmers that would pay the state
double the amount John M. Baer has
got loaned on his land. Further, the
Bank of North Dakota has been
examined regularly as any other
bank. The l. V. AS were not go
particular about the state money in
the past, for instance, when the
state money was loaned anywhere
on cashiers checks and according to
report one bank in the northern part
of the state had over one hundred
thousand dollars of the state money
~loaning it out to the farmers at l2
per cent and bonus aud the state
had no security but cashiers checks,
and the state lost some money in
those days. (see Jones) Mr. Baer
states the case right when he says
tnat the farmers have just started to
fight and the last round will be
theirs,
Yours Respectfully,
-Magnus Snowfield.

The North Dakota anti-tuberculo-

The North Dakota anti -tuberculo-
sis association. is getting things i'm
to readiness for the 1920 sale of
Christmas seals. The sale will be
conducted in a somewhat different
manner this year than formerly. Each
county is being organized into a unit
for selling, with a chairman for the
county and sub-chairman for each
town and vicinity, who will conduct
and supervise the sale in their par
ticular localities.
Cavalier county has been appor-
toned $500 worth of seals. which
when divided will not amount to large
sums for any one district. In case all
of the quota is sold Cavalier county
will be entitled to the services of a
visiting nurse for two months during
the coming year.
The slogan for the sale is. "every
package and letter mailed in De-
cember to carry a Christmas seal,
and it will mean just a little thought
on the part of the great numbers Of
people interested in this worthy
cause to easily carry through our
part of this 1920 sale. Seals will be
found on sale at all the usual places.

ting them they may be obtained by
sending to the undersigned.

Calling of Loans and the IA Per Gent Call Rate Care Bear
Crotod The Adudntdge

New York, Jan. 20.-Today's mar
ket was dull and featureless profess
sional affair. The volume of business
shrunk TO Insignificant proportions, re
| tecting in measure the ovCrpowering
influence of the money market condi-
/ tions. Almost from the outset a dam
per was put on speculative activity by
| the advance in the renewal rate of call
loans to 10 per cent, which subsequent
~ was raised TO II per cent. There
gould be only one Interpretation, and
that was the unrclaXed determination of
/ the powers to- be to promptly arrest
any effort looking to broadening of
speculative activity.
The seemingly indifference manifest: ::
ed in the two preceding sessions TO the
was more superficial than real. 1t was
evident, however. to close observers,
that technical. rather than outside cou-
the supposedly reversal in the market
trend. In other words, when the more
urgent demands of the short interest
were supplied. the market was deprived
of its principal buying power and sup
port. The truth of this was readily
confirmed in the mixed priced move
ment of today's session Yet the market
seemed to possess an undertone or con =
siderable strength.
Comparatively little attention was
evidently paid to outside developments.
This Mt least was suggested in the semi, =,
official statement from Washington that
no matter what Congress did or dld not
