"Three hundred years ago there was being held in Jamestown, Vir ginia colony, the first legislative as sembly called by free men. And, even as these men had met to institute self-government on the American ' continent, a little group of English t humble folk ho had departed from their native land in search of a place where they might worship God according- the dictates of their own conscience, were making ready to embark for America and establish in the new world, a home of religious freedom. Thus, as we return thanks for the bountiful blest ings that have been bestowed upon us during the past year, we may especially view with profound thanks, the 300 years' existence' of the American institu tions of self-government, and pray for their perpetuation. "Following the order of the presi dent, and in willing obedience to the custom for many generations, and with due observance of the statutes of the "state, I. Samuel R. McKelvie, governor, do hereby proclaim Thurs dey, the 25th day of Novem ber. 1920, a day of public thanks giving to Almighty God, and re quire that all departments of state be closed on that day. i "Given under my hand and the great seal of the state at the capitol in the citjof Lincoln, this, the 19th day of November, A.
