PRESIDENT WILSON IS SUES A PROCLAMATION Requests All God Fearing People to Attend Church President Wilson last week signed a proclamation calling on the people of the United States to pray for peace in Europe. The proclamation sets aside Sunday, October 4, as a day of prayer. The President's proclamation follows : " "Whereas, great nations of the world have taken up arms against one another and war now draws millions of men into bat tle when the counsel of states men have not been able to save from the terrible sacrifice; and "Whereas, in this, as in all things, it is our privilege and du ty to seek counsel and succor of Almighty God, humbling our selves before Him, confessing our weakness and our lack of any wisdom equal to these things; and "Whereas, it is -the especial wish and longing of the people of the United States, in prayer and ccusel and all friendliness, to serve the cause of peace ; "Therefore,I, Woodrow Wil son, President of the United States of America, do designate Sunday, the fourth day of Octo ber next, a day of prayer an'i supplication and do request all God-fearing persons to repair on that day to their places of wor ship, there to unite their peti tions to Almighty God, that ever ruling the cousel of men, setting straight the things they cannot govern or alter, taking pity on the nations now in the throes of conflict, in His mercy and good ness showing a way where men can see none. He vouchsafes His children healing peace and re store once more that concord among men and nations without which Uiere can be neither hap piness nor true friendship, nor any wholesome fruit or toil or thought in the world; praying also to this end that He forcive 'us our sins, our ignorance of Hs holv will, our wilfulness and many errors, and lead us in the paths of obedience to places of visions and to thoughts and counsels that purge and make wise. "In vitness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and authorized the seal of the Unit ed States to be affixed. "Done at the city of Washing ton, this eight day of Septem ber in the year of our Lord one thousand, nine hundred and four teen, and of the independence oi the United States of America the one hundred and thirty-mn-3. (Signed) Woodrow Wilson, "By the President. "William Jennings Bryan, "Secretary of State." Much Tobacco.
