RY THE GOVERNOR OF THE VIRGIN
ISLANDS OF THE
UNITED STATES.
A Proclamati
rociamation
THANKSGIVING DAY.
HE
President
of
the
United
States
T having
designated,
Thursday.
the
24th
November
as
a day of
national
thanksgiving,
I. Sumner
E.
W. Kittelle,
Governor
of
the
Virgin Islands
of
th~
United States,
do solemnly
urge
upon
all
the people of the
Virgin Islands,
on
that
day,
to congregate
in
their usual
places
of worship and
Ihere
to
give deep
an
sincere
thanks,
to the
Great
Giver of All
Good,
for
the
manifold
blessings,
both
spiritual
and material,
which
have
been
showered
upon these
islands.
The
ecataclysms
of
the
great
world
war
passed
us by and
the
after
effecis
have
visited
us in triflinz degree
as
com-
pared with our brothers
in otaer countries.
We
are
spared
the
great
inclemencies
of
weather
that bring
such
suffering
to
the
poor in
colder
climes
and
destructive
storms
have
not
swept
over
our
dwell-
ings.
The
very
gre
t
probiem
of
un-
employment
which
at
home
faces
some
four
million of our countrymen, i 3 to
us
greatly soften>d and starvationis
urknown
in our midst.
Wea have basked
under
the
most
beneficent
worldly ¢overnment
that
the earth
has
ever known,
whiic
a great
European
country
has
suffered
untold
cruelty
and d:soladion
und2r
the
tyrant
rule
of bolshevists.
Wars
are still
rag-
ing
in
places
on
earth
but
we
reside
amidst
beace
an<d
the
transeendent
beauties
nf Nature
Wpilemics
have
not
come
upon
us but health
conditions
con-
tinue
to improve
in our commuities.
We
may
all
go
about
our
r2speciive
tasks
freely
and feariessiy,
knowing
that
no
man
may
unjustly
detain
us.
Ouar local
prob'ens
are
not
so
serious
as
those
of
the world at large
and all are capable
of
soiution
if we
banish
greed
and
consider
them
unselfishly.
We have
indeed
been
blessed
above
manv
of
our
fellows
and
our gratitude
should
be
heartfelt.
Spiritually the feelinz of brotherly love
reigns
over
us in an
unusual
degree,
and
this greatest
of soul quaiities will, gradu-
ally and in the ages
to come,
pr:ve
to
e
the only possible
solution of
(he
present
world
troubles.
Our
hearts
are
kindiy
disposed
toward
the
others
of
our
com-
munity and
we have
the
constant
inmev
urge
to serve
those
less
fortunate
than
ourselves.
T[he spirit of
all
the
people
has
been
intensely
patrioitec
and
hearts
are religiously inclined
to act
upon
prin-
ciple rather
than
from greed and
‘selfish-
ness.
Regardless
of race
or
station
the
spirit
of
amity
actuates
us.
Here
no
racial
discord
has
been
fomented
by
evil
influence and
whether
God has
called
us
to serve
our lives in the Nord
~,
the
La-
tin or the Slav
race
or
has,
perhaps,
