HERE'S MORE AB0U I
THANKSGIVING
STARTS ON PAGE ONE

Of their community and for the
abundant yield of the soil. A CEN
fury and a half later. after the
new nation had been formed, and
the charter of government, the
constitution of the republic, had
received the assent Of the states,
President Washington and his sue
cessors invited the people of the
nation to lay down their tasks
one day in the year and give
thanks for the blessings that had
been granted them by divine prov
idence.
ct Is fitting that we should
continue this hallowed Gus
tom, and select a day In 1899
to be dedicated to reverent
thoughts Of thanksgiving.
"Our nation has gone steadily
forward in the application of dem
ocratic processes to economic and
social problems. We have faced
the spectres OF business depres-
sion, of unemployment, and of
widespread agricultural distress,
and our positive efforts to allevi-
ate these conditions have met
with heartening results.
I'VE have also been permitted
to see the fruition of measures
which we have undertaken in the
realms of health, social welfare
and the conservation of resources.
AS a nation, we are deeply CRATE
full that in a world of turmoil we
are at peace with all countries,
and we especially rejoice in the
strengthening bonds of our friend
ship with the other peoples of the
western hemisphere.
LET us, on the day set aside
for this purpose, give thanks
to the ruler of the universe
for the strength which he has
vouchsafed us to carry on our
daily labors and for the hope
that lives within us of the
coming of a day when peace
and the productive activities
of peace shall reign on every
continent.
In witness whereof, I have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the seal of the United States of
America to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washing
ton, this 31st day of October, in
the year of our Lord nineteen
hundred and thirty-nine and of
the Independence of the United
States of America the one hundred
and sixty-fourth. (Signed)
