President
Sets Aside a Day
Tha.ik.gi»Ing.
for
It has pleased Almighty God to bring
our nation in safety and honor through
another year. The works of religion and
charity have everywhere been manifest.
Our country, through all its extent, has
been blessed with abundant harvests.
Labor and the great industries of the
people have prospered beyond all prece
dent. Our commerce has spread over the
world. Our power and influence in the
cause of freedom and enlightenment have
extended over distant seas and lands.
The lives of our official representatives
and many of our people in China have
been marvelously preserved. We have
been generally exempt from pestilence
and other great calamities, and even the
tragic visitation which overwhelmed the
city of Galveston made evident the senti
ments of sympathy and Christian charity
by virtue of which we are one united
people.
Now, therefore, I, William McKinley,
president of the United States, do hereby
appoint and set apart Th ursday, the 29th
of November next, to be observed by all
the people of the United States, at home
or abroad, as a day of thanksgiving and
praise to him who holds the nations in
the hollow of his hand. I recommend
that they gather in their several places
of worship and devoutly give Him thanks
for the prosperity wherewith He has en
dowed us, for seedtime and harvest, for
the valor, devotion and humanity of our
armies and navies, and for all His bene
fits to us as individuals and as a nation;
and that they humbly pray for the con
tinuance of His divine favor, for concord
and amity with other nations, and for
righteousness and peace in all our ways.
In witness whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.

JOHNNIE’S WISH.
They had only a small farm out in the
hills,
A clearing in the forest of oak and pines,
Where the ferns grow tall on the mount-
tain side;
But down in the garden on the trailing
vines
The big yellow pumpkins are the farm
er’s pride.
They have cattle and sheep and goats
out there.
And little fat pigs and big ones too;
And chickens that scratch around every
where,
And wobbling fat geese and ducks in the
pond,
And turkeys that strut like a boy with a
drum.
There’s plenty to do on the little farm ;
And the children are glad when the holi
days come.
But when frosts set in and begin to coat
The vines of the pumpkins like sugar
cake,
And the maple trees down by the mount
ain brook
Look ghostly at night, like an upturned
rake,
Then said the farmer to his boy one day ;
“We will catch the fattest of turks, and
Of geese and of ducks a load beside.
For tomorrow we’ll hitch up and drive
to town,
Where we will for your winter’s clothing
provide.’’
And when Thanksgiving came around at
last,
The mother had a turkey fat and plump,
And of yellow and juicy pumpkin pies
"A plenty for ourselves,” said mother,
and some
For the good old parson and neighbor’s
folks.”
The parson said grace, and with head in
clined.
Did offer up thanks to the Lord on high:
“O give us this day our daily ”—
Then Johnnie looked over at sister and
smiled—
'Cause he thought he’d rather have
pumpkin pie'
