blessed OF All Ma
tlolss, Says Coolidge
In Thanks Message

In a Thanksgiving proclamation
Saturday President Coolidge asked
the nation to make November 25, a
day of praise to God for a year in
which the United States had been
blessed among the nations of the
EARTH"
The text follows: Gas nation and
as individuals we have passed anoth-
er twelve months in the favor Of the
Almighty. He has smiled upon our
fields and they have brought forth
plentifully; business has prospered;
industries have flourished, and labor
has been well employed. While sec
tions of our country have been visited
by disaster, we have been spared any
great national calamity or pestilence
visitation. We are blessed among
the nations of the earth.
"Our moral and spiritual life has
kept measure with our material pros
perity. We are not unmindful of the
gratitude we owe to God for his
watchful care which has pointed out
to US the ways of peace and happi-
ness; we should not fail in our ack-
nowledgement of his divine favor
which has bestowed upon US so
many blessings. Neither should we
be forgetful of those among US, who
through stress of circumstances, are
less fortunately placed, but by deeds
of charity make our acknowledgment
more acceptable in His sight.
Wherefore, l, Calvin Coolidge,
president of the United States, do
hereby set apart Thursday the 25th
day of November, next, as day of
general thanksgiving and prayer and
I recommend that on that day the peo-
pie shall cease from their daily work,
and in their homes or their accustom-
ed places of worship, devoutly give
thanks to the Almighty for the many
and great blessings they have receiv-
ed, and seek his guidance that through
good deeds and brotherly love they
may deserve a continuance of His
favor"

with the abandonment of a minor
child, was given a sentence of ninety
days in the county Jail, with a sus-

A number of civil cases remain on

matters. The majority of these cases
are divorce suits.
One of the few interesting cases on
the calendar was the case of the Far

Carl Klabunde and others. This case
grew out of a note given the bank,
and signed by Herman Klabunde and
his son Carl Klabunde. The elder
Klabunde proved that his signature
to the note was forgery and the jury
returned a verdict of no cause for
action against Herman Klabunde.
