HE
President
of

United

T haVing

the
24th
November
as
a day of
national
thanksgiving,
I. Sumner
E.
W. Kittelle,
Governor
of
“he
Virgin Islands
of
the
United States,
do solemnly
urge
upon
all
the people of the Virgin Islands,
on that
day,
to eongregate
in their usual
places
of
worship and
there
to
give deep rand
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 other 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
whnich
as
home
faces
some
four
million of our countrymen,
is
to
us
greatly softened
and starvationisunknown
in our midst.
Wea have
basked
under
the
most
beneficent
worldly government
that
the earth has
ever
knowan,
while
a great
European
country
has
suffered
untold
cruelty
and dzsolation
unlec
the
tyrant
rule
of bolshevists.
Wars
are still
rag-
ing
in
places
on
earth
but
we
reside
amidst
vpeace
and
the
(ranscendent
beauties
o Nature.
H®Epidemies have
not
eome
upon
us
but health
conditions
con-
tinue
to improve
in our communaities.
We
may
ali
go about
our
ra2spec:ive
tasks
freely
aad fearlessly,
knowing
that
no
man
may
unjustly detain.us.
Our
local
proble ns
are
not
so
serious
as those
of
the world at large
and all
are capabie
of
solution
if we
banish
greed and
consider
them
unselfishiy.
We have indeed
been
blessed
above
manv
of
our
ifellows anld
our gratitude
should
be
heartfelt,
Spiritually the feelin:z of brotherly love
reigns
over
us in
an unusual
degree,
and
this greatest
of soul qualities
will, gradu-
ally and
in the ages
to come,
prove
o
e
the only possible
solution of ‘he
present
world
troubles.
Our
hearts
are
kindly
dispused
toward
the
others
of
our
com-
munity and
we have
the
constant
ioner
urge
to serve
those
less
fortunate
than
ourselves.
The spirit of
all
the
people
has
been
intensely
patrioric
and
hearts
are religiously inelined
to aci
upon
prin-
ciple rather
than from greed
and
selfish-
nezs.
Regardless
of race
or
station
the
spirit
of
amity
actuates
us.
Here
no
racial
discord
has
been
fomented
by
evil
influence and
whether
Gond has
calied
uvs
to serve
our livas in the Nordie,
the
La-
tin or the Siav
race
or
has,
