""" GOVERNOR CALLS FOR OBSERVANCE OF TWO DAYS OF SPIRITUAL UPLIFT WHEREAS, It is particularly important during war times that tho spiritual interests of tho peoplo should bo developed nnd conserved in tho most cfTcctivo manner, becauso from tho spiritual llfo of a nation flows its strength, its stability, its permanence; nnd Whereas, the Sunday school has n splendid record of scrvlco for impart ing spiritual fruidanco to tho younjr people of tho nation nnd has unmatched resources in bringing a knowledge of the Biblo to the conscicnco of tho peoples Thcreforo, I, Martin Grovo Brumbaugh, Govornor of tho Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, hereby designato Sunday, November 4, 1917, as a "Go to Sunday School Day," upon which day I call upon all tho people of this Commonwealth to aBsemblo themselves In their respectivo places of worship and elsowhcro for the purposp of emphasizing tho importance of the Sundny Bchool nnd, through the Sunday school, tho importonco of spiritual training to our People. Early impressions arc most enduring impressions. Tho training, thcreforo of childhood in religious matters is of vital moment to tho nation. Tho power of examplo is vnstly more important thnn tho teaching of precepts. For that reason the ndult population should lead the way to childhood and npprovo by their presence tho movement hereby designated. Let us all keep In mind the sublime fact that n nation that forgets Its God will perish and a nation that loyally nnd devoutly serves Him shall endure. Moreover, it scema wise to mo to encourage the greatest Intimacy between fathers and their sons, to tho end that tho oxporlcnco of a fnther'a llfo may bo most effectively imported to his sons. I, therefore, set nsido Thursday, November .15, 1017, as a "Father nnd Son Day," hav ng for its purpose the samo general functions to bo observed on November 4. On Thursday, November 1G, I request all fnthcrs to unlto with their sons in a fellowship meeting, to which other sons who mny havo suffered tho loss of a father shall bo Invited to participate, and that tho meeting be mado an occasion for tho creation of such on intimacy between fathers nnd sons to tho end thnt religious nnd moral senti ments of ono generation may be transmitted unimpaired nnd enlarged to tho generation that is to be.
