It possesses a wonderful at- mosphere of individual liberty, with a Gov- ; ernment designed to facilitate the utmost | development of thé individual Cifizen. For , cur freedom and for our Government, we 5 | should be thankful. In this connection, we call ihe atten- | tién of every reader of The Citiezn to ihe proclamation of President Roosevelt, who | urges ihat Thanksgiving Day and New Year’s Day be observed as days of prayer. While it is somewhat long, we feel that not cne word should be omitted. Read it care- iully: PRAYER: THANKSGIVING DAY AND NEW YEAR'S DAY | the President of the United States of America “A PROCLAMATION “Tt is a good thing to give thanks unto Across the uncertain ways space and time our hearts echo those words, for the days are with us again when. at che of | gatherirg of the-harvest, we solemnly 2x ‘ gan or the mouthpiece nie any Pp | faction or class; always do its utmo public welfare; never tolerate corruption or ‘ injustice; denounce vice and praise virtue, ‘commend good done by individual or organ- t ‘ization; tolerant of others’ rights, views and ‘ opinions: print only news that will elevate ‘and not contaminate the reader; never com- ‘ promise with principle.

Roose- velt, President of the United States of Am- erica, do hereby invite the attention of ihe people to the joint resolution of Congress approved December 26, 1941, which desig- nates the fourth Thursday in November of each year as Thanksgiving Day; and I re- quest that both Thanksgiving Day, Novem- ber 26, 1942, and New Year's Day, Janu- ery 1, 1948, be observed in prayer, publicly and privately. ’ “In witness whereof, I have hereunto | set my hand and caused the seal of the Unit- ed States of Ameriea io be affixed. “Done at the City.ef Washington ihis eleventh-day of November in the year of | our Lord nineteen hundved and fortywo, and of the Independence,,of. the United States of America the one hundred and six- iy-seventh. “ (SEAL) “By-the President: “FRANKLIN D.
