C5-- Thanksgiring Nov. 29th. The prsident has issued a proclamation declaring Thursday, Nevember 29th, to be a day of thanksgiving. "Never before in our history or in the history of any rther nation have the people enjoyed more aboundiug material prosperity than- is ours; a prosperity so great that it should arouse in us no spirit of reckless pnd and least of oil spirit of heedlees disregard of our responsibilities; but rather a sober sense of our many blessings, and a resolute purpose, under Provideuce, not to forfeit them by any action "of our owu." "Material well being, indespen-einle though it be, can never be anything butafoaudatiou of true national greatness and happiness. If we build nothing tpon this foundation, then our Dational life will be as meaningless and empty as the house where only foundation is laid.

our material well being must be built a superstructure individual and national life lived in accordance with the laws of highest morality, or else our prosperity itielf will in the long run turn out a curse in stead of a blessing. We should be both reverently thankful for what we have received and" earnestly bent upon turning it into a means i)( grace and not for destruction. 1 Oiothiag ftje Stephan VIeroantik Co. V. H.
