Speaking
THE
Public Mind
To the Herald:
Your correspondents give them
selves a great deal of agony about the
condition of our streets and roads.
They would seem to want the wliolo
surface of the earth smoothed off so
that they cun rldo without being
humped. For I think If you will take
an Inventory of these correspondents
you will find that out of every ten at
least twelve of them are automobile
owners. The eltixens who don't own
a "car" don't fill up your eolutnns
with lamentations and complaints
about the roads, lint they have to pay
the bills Just the same for the upkeep
of these thoroughfares.
I should suggest <t( Is the day of
“suggestions"—everybody has some
plan whereby the race of man would
lie emnnlrpated front misfortunes and
evils forever, every suburban news
paper in the country has published at
least two), I should suggest, therefore.
It) regard to the roads, that the fol
lowing plan be adopted:
I.et the automoblllsts work on the
roads themselves. ls-t each "ear"
owner be made lo put in a certain
number of days each year with a pick
and a shovel repairing the highways
which lie decries so loudly. l.et enrh
man fix his own favorite hump. (In
the ease of the Unity and the Well-to
do, their “show-furs" might be sub
atltutedi. Cite them (he materials
and tell them to go ahead and put
the thing In shape to salt themselves.
Then uu immense and blessed silence
would reign in the land.
To The Herald:
The following extract was dipped

PEACE PRAYERS
FOR WAR'S [NO
All of Nation Kneeling in
Prayer Monday for End of
Ore&t European Conflict.
Washington.—With all the nation
kneeling In prayer tomorrow for tha
end of the war In Europe, the epochs In
American history were recalled when
the president had proclaimed a day ol
general supplication for divine Inter
ventlon to sense or restore peace
Between 1798 and 1881, seven such
proclamations were made:
1798 —President John Adams named
May 9th Is a national day of prayer
because France threatened to make
war upon the United States.
1815— President James Madison pro
claimed January 12th us a day of
prayer when trouble was brewing be
tween the American republic and Al
giers.
1861—President Abraham Lincoln
designated the last Thursday In Sep
tember fur national prayer for the
restoration of peace between the
North and South.
1863 President Lincoln called for a
second day of prayer—April 30th—rec
ommending that t|ie people keep the
day "In all humility and with all re
ligious solemnity to the end that th«
united prayer of the nation may as
cend to the throne of grace and bring
down bountiful blessings upon our
own country."
1864 For the third time during the
War Between the States a general day
of prayer was proclaimed. That was
August Ist, 1864. Lincoln wrote: "In
sincerity and truth let us rest humbly
In the hope, authorized by the Divine
teachings, that the united cry of the
nation be heard on high snd answered
with blessings no less than the pardon
of our naltonnl sins and the restora
tion of our divided and suffering
country to its former happy condition
of unity and peace.”
1869 -President Johnson proclaimed
June Ist n day of prayer In commem
oration of President Lincoln who died
on April 15th, the victim of Booth’s
bullet.
1881—President Arthur designated
September 26th for general prayer to
mark Iho burial of President Garfield,
who had riled Hnptember 19th from an
assnssin's Hltaek.
President Wilson's rail for a day of
supplication was Issued September 8.
ll was the first time In American his
tory that the people had been urged
that "all God-fearing persons repair
to their places of worship, there to
unite their petitions to Almighty God
that, overruling the eounsel of men,
setting straight the things they can
not governo r alter, taking pity on tho
nations now In the throes of conflict.
In 111 m mercy and goodness showing a
way where men ran sen none. Ho
vouchsafe Ills children healing penre
Again, and restore once more that con
cord among men and nations, without
which there ran tie neither happiness
nor true friendship nor any whole
some fruit of toil or thought In the
world.”
While Adams was the first presi
dent to proclaim prnver days, yet the
people of the New England Colonies
initiated periods of general prayer
early In their history. As far buck as
1621 Governor Bradford called upon
the people to give thanks for boun
teous crops. That was In reality the
first Thanksgiving Day in the western
hemisphere. A second day of prayer
was called In the colonies when
drought threatened the crops. While
Ihe people were gathered in their
rhurches rain began to full In plenty.
The crops were saved.
