State of Connecticut

GOVERNOR

ROM time immemorial Good Friday
| has been regarded as a time of spiritual
zºº inventory; a day when we may take stock
ſºlº) of ourselves and our accomplishments;
an occasion when we may pause in the pursuit of
physical comfort long enough to give especial
thought to the growth of the less tangible but not
less important asset of character. Good Friday is
set apart for this purpose because the day is sacred
to the great majority of our people as commemo-
rating the supreme example of sacrifice for an
unselfish ideal. I therefore appoint Friday, the
sixth day of April next, as a day of
#aating alth Irauer,
and I urge that all of the men, women, and
children of Connecticut gather wherever possible
in their several places of worship, there to gain
that spiritual refreshment and inspiration necessary
to moral growth and effective service. Only by
such means will the world become a better place
in which to live.
Given under my hand and seal of the State at the Capitol, in Hartford, this twenty-third day
of March, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and twenty-eight and
of the independence of the United States the one hundred and fifty-second.
By His Excellency’s Command:
Secretary.
