V"." Washington, Special. --The Presi dent has issued his . proclamation naming Thursday, "November 30th next as a day for thanksgiving. The proclamation follows : .' By the President of the nitcd States of Vmerica, a Proclamation. ' When, nearly three centuries ago, the first settlers came to the countrv which has now become this great re public, they fronted not only hard- snips but terrible risk to their lives. In those grim years the custom grew of setting apart one day in each year for a special service of thanksgiving to the Almighty for preserving the people through the changing seasons. The custom has now become national and hallowed by immemorial usasre. We live in " easier and more pienti- im limes man our -ioretathers. the men who with rugged strength faced the -rugged days ; and yet the dan gers to national life are quite as great now as at any previous time in our history. It is eminently fitting that once a year our people should set apart a day for praise and thanks giving to the Giver of good, and, at the same time, that "they express their thankfulness for the abundant mercies- received, should manfidlv acknowledge their shortcomings' and, pledge themselves solemnly and in good faith to strive to overcome them. During the past year we have Jaeen blessed with, bountiful crops. Our business prosperity - has been , great J No other people has ever stood on as high -a level of material well-being as ours now stands. We are not threat ened by foes from without . The foes from whom we should pray to be de- livered are our own passions, ap petites and follies: and against these there is always need that we should "war. ; '. ... : ; . . : Therefore, I now set apart Thurs day, the 30th day of this November, as a Day of Thanksgiving for the past and of prayer for the future, and on that day I ask that through out the land the people gather in their homes and places of worship, and in rendering thanks unto the Most High for manifold blessings of the past year, consecrate themselves to : a life of clenhncss, honor and" wisdom, so thai this nation may do its 'allotted wcrk on the earth m a manner worthy of those who founded it and of those who preserved it. InNwitness thereof, L have hereunto set my hand and caused, the seal of the United States to.be affixed.
