President Wilson's proclama
tion was as follows:
"Whereas,, great nations of the
world have taken up arms a-
gainst each other and war now
draws millions of men into bat-
tle whom the counsel of states-
men have not been able to save
the terrible sacrifice;
"And whereas, in this, as in
all things it is our privelege and
duty to seek council and succor
■of Almighty God. humbling our
selves before him, confessing
our weakness and our lick of
any wisdom equal to these things
"And whereas, it is the espec-

ple of the United States in pray-
er council, and all frendliness, to
serve the cause of peace.
"Therefore, I, Woodrow Wil-
son, president of the United Sta-

Sunday, the 4th d y of October,
next, a day of prayer, and sup-
ination and do request all God
fearing persons to repair on that
day to their places of worship,

Almighty God, that overruling

LIBERIV ITEMS
Our summer school closed last
Friday which has been in sess-
ion two months. Our teacher,
M^ss flattie Sawyers and Mis.
Philips have taken an increased
interest the school and we feel
that the patrons are well satis-
fied with their splendid teaching
It is an evident, fact that the
Summer school is not best*to be
had for it is too warm entirely
for the little folks to sit at the
desk these long hot days, and
the writer feels that if the teach
ers e ven Jliold the attendance
she or he deserves credit.

The greatest war in history is taking
place in Europe. More than hall the
earth's population is directly concern-
ed and the other hall is 'under the
shadow cast by this great conflict.
No other war approaches it in num-
bers o( men involved, in the tremen-
dous sacrifice of life and property that
the Nations are making, in results thai
w II spread to ihe remotest corners ol
the earth.
It is ar. epoch in history, that lor
s :(idenness and for stiiring events it
sMuds alone. Those who are alive to
diywiil lemember the great war al-
ways as the most remarkable spectacle
or their lives. They will recall what
they read cf battles '*here armies as
lar,je as smalt nations fought on a
front miles in extent. The stories ol
conflict, of heroism, will never leave i
the memories of this generation.
For the story ol this war Texans
must turn to their newspapers. The
