of statesmen have not been able to save from the terrible sacrifice . and,
"Whereas, In this as in all things it is o«r privilege and duty to seek
counsel and succor of Almighty God, oumbling ourselves before him, con-
our swakness sad our lack of any wisdom equal to these things.
"Whereas, It it the especial wish and longing of the people of the
United States, in prayer aad counsel and alt frieadliness, to serve tbe
oause of peace,
"Therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States of
America, do designate Sunday, the fourth day of October nest, a day of
prayer and supplication and do request al! God fearing persons to repair
as that day to their places of worship, there to unite their petitions to Al-
mighty God, that, overruling the counsel of men, setting straight the
things they cannot govern or alter, taking pity on the nations now in the
throes of conflict, in his mercy and goodness showing a way where men
can tee none, he vouchsafe bis children to heal again and restore once
that concord among an aad nations wbithout which tnere can be
happiness nor trim friendship nor any wholesome fruit of toil or
in the world, praying also to Otis end that be forgive ut oar sins,
of bis holy will, our willfulness any many errors, and load
