Proclamation.
"By the President of the United1
States, a proclamation.
"Notwithstanding that our fore-
fathers endured the hardships and
privations of a primitive life, sur-
rounded by dangers and solaced
only with meager comforts, they
nevertheless bequeathed to us a cus-
tom of devoting one day of every
year to universal Thanksgiving to
almighty God for the blessing of
life itself and the means to sustain
it, for the sanctuary of home and
the joys that pervade it, and for
the mercies of His protection from
accident, sickness or death.t
"Our country has many causes forc
Thanksgiving. We have been blest
with distinctive evidence of divinek
favor. As a nation we have suffered
far lessethan other peoples from
the present world difficulties. We
have been free from civil and in-r
dustrial discord. The outlook ford
peace between nations has beenc
strengthened. In a, large view wec
have made progress upon the en-
during structure of our institutions.t
The arts and sciences that enrichf
our lives and enlarge our control ofi
nature have made notable advances.s
Education has been further extend-
ed. We have made gains in the pre- f
vention of disease and in the pro-(
tection of childhood.c

"Now, therefore, I, Herbert Hoov-
er, President of the United States I

al day of thanksgiving, and do en-
join the people of the United States
so to observe it, calling upon them
to remember that many of our peo-
ple are in need and suffering from
causes beyond their control, and
suggesting that a proper celebra-
tion of the day should include that

the community, young and old, shall
have cause to give thanks for our
institutions and for the neighborly
sentiments of our people.

unto set my hand and caused to be
