THANKSGIVING PROCLAIMED
BY GOVERNOR A. W. McLEAN J
To the People of North Carolina- 5
Whereas, tbc spirit of true prati-J
tudc is a virtue that ought always to]
be fostered and encouraged; and.
Whereas, ai! good and perfect
gifts of this life, as well as hope forj
the life to come, are direct benefactions
of a kind providence,
.\Mw, therefore, I, Angus W. McLean,
Governor of North Carolina.!
happy to follow a custom that has!
been perpetuated since this nationj
of ours established its independence,
do hereby proclaim and set aside!
Thursday, November 29 th. as;
Thanksgiving Day, and call upon j
the people of the state to observe it'
by suspending ail unnecessary ac- j
tivities and by giving public expression
to the gratitude that is ?> their J
hearts for all the blessings enjoyed;
during the past year.
We, as a people, have much for
which to be thankful. DifficultiesI
?< have been experienced, to be sure,!
as will ever be th^- case until com-,
plete harmony has been established!
Detwoen me creator and the crea-i
lure and between man and. man
everywhere; but our blessings have j
far outnumbered our handicaps, and]
we have abundant cause for genuine;
gratitude.
We have continued to go forwar d
We have utilized our natural resources
to meet our spiritual needs j
and to fulfill our human, obligations.
Ke!ig?on and science have contributed
to the necessities of the soul
and body: humanity, as a whole, has'
been privileged to attain higher'
levels of service.
l For these and all other hies -:v. .
^ too numerous to mention. I urge our,
jf people to offer sincere and hearty,
thanks to Almighty Clod on the day
appointed.
Whether our prayers of thanks giving
shall ascend from around the!
humble fireside or be wafted to',
heaven on the strains cf Cathedroi
music is of little consequence, so J
long as they come from hearts thai,
are moved by the spirit of true":
j? ra lit udo.
it is highly desirable that our
people shall use this occasion i<? coh?|
tribute to the necessities of the lessfd.rtuante,
especialiy to the orphans j
of our stall' nnrl others whn >?'?>
pendent upon the bounty of those!
who have enjoyed a greater degree}
of prosperity. Freely we Have rc-j
reived, freely let us give. Thus we,
will not only be doing thai whirl: is
well pleasing in the sight of Goii,i
hut wilt artiuire a broader sense of
spiritual satisfaction.
it: conclusion, I further urge that!
our people, remembering ail of us-i
are, it; the final analysis, dependent
upon the great Control Source of:
supply, forget their individual dii'-j
v- feivr.cea and unite in gratitude :r
? God for the abiding things of life.
ul the same time seeltirS' Divine}
guidance for the future.
[tone in tiie city of Raleigh, this
12th day of November, in xbc year,
of our Loid one thousand nine hum;
dred nail twenty eight, and in the.!
one hundred and fifty-third year of:
our American independence.
ANGUS \V. McLEAN, Governor.;
MR. HAGAMAN SEES MANY
CHANGES IN THE COUNTYj
As I go over the county 1 observe ;
changes from year t;> year in many ]
things. Our county iias almost j
gone out of the wheat growing busi
itcss as it once did. This is, no j
doubt, as it should lio. The corn:
crop this year i: one of the poorest !
i have ever seen?the storm almost !
destroyed it. A large per cent, of the;
corn will be a very ucor quality.
The meadows are thickly studded ;
with haystacks and r.ot enough good:
cattle and sheep to consume it.
The county is turning largely to
trucking?cabbage, potatoes and :
other crops. This is, 110 doubt, as;
rit should be, provided the farmers!
will not become discouraged and j
quit, when some product happens to j
he low in price this or some other ,
year. The man who succeeds in:
any business is the man who keeps;
>' everlastingly at it, and more espe- :
cinlly the farmer. If the price is;
low this year it is no indication that
it will be next year. Keep on plant- \
ng cabbage and .. potatoes. Cab-1
bage is good this year; potatoes not
so good. This may be reversed next!
year
Good roads are revolutionizing j
this whole county. We have now j
about 65 miles of good roads?some
of these ought to be made better,
and no doubt will be right soon. :
The next greatest need is Ihe im- i
Portance of the other roods of tUo1
county, and i know this is a difficult
task with the limitc-d moans of;
the county.
This matter demands the serious)
and immediate consideration of the
officials and thinking men of the
" county.

one third of the total membership
of the two houses will be Replibiicaii.
