BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE VIRGIN
ISLANDS OF THE UNITED STATES.
A Proclamation
THANKSGIVING DAY.

having designated, jhurSday, the
Gath November as a day of national
thanksgiving, |. Sumner E. w. Kittelle,
Governor of he Virgin Islands of the
United States, do sOlemnly urge upon all
the people of the Virgin Islands, OF that
day. to congregate in their usual places
of worship and there to give dep and
sincere thanks, to the Great Giver OF All
Good, for the manifold blessings, both
spiritual and material, which have been
shoWered upon these islands.
The catacIysms of the great world
var passed US by and the after effects
rave visited US in t~rif1ing degree as com
pared with our brothers in other countries.
We are spared the great Inclemencies
Of weather that bring such suffering to
the poor in colder chimes and destructive
storms have not swept over our dWell-
ings. The very gre t problem OF an
employment which at home faces some
tour million Of our cOuntrymen, is to US
,reatly softened and starvation is unknown
in our midst. We have basked under the
most beneficent worldly government that
the earth has ever known, while a great
European country has suffered untold
cruelty and desolation under the tyrant
rule of b~olshevists. Wars are still rag
ing in places on earth but we reside
amidst peace and the t~ranscendent
beauties of Nature. Epidemics have not
come upon US but health conditions con-
tinue to improve in u communities. We
may all go about our respective tasks
freely and fearlessly, knowing that no
man may unjustIy detain US. Our local
problems are not so serious as those of
the world at large and all are capable of
solution if we Danish greed and consider
them unselfshly, We have indeed been
blessed above many of our fellows and
our gratitude should be heartfelt.
Spiritually the feeling of %brotherly love
reigns over US in an unusual degree, and
this greatest of soul qualities will, gradu-
ally and in the ages to come, prove to e
the only possible solution of the present
world troubles. Our hearts are kindly
disposed toward the others of our com
munity and we have the constant inner
to serve those less fortunate than
ourselves. The spirit Of all the people
has been intensely patriotic and hearts
religiously inclined to act upon prin-
rather than from greed and selfish
ness. Regardless Of race or station the
spirit of amity actuates US. Here no
acial discOrd has been fomented by evil
influence and whether God has called US
