NATION'S DEBT TO PILGRIMS
Their Famous Compact of Government
Rightly Treseured ae Qreat
8tate Document
In the harbor at the tip of Cape
Cod occurred the first birth and the
Drat death among the Pilgrim In
America. On board tb Mayflower, a
(be lay at anchor, wa born Pere
grine, son of William and Susanna
White. Here was another child for
the ship's nursery, already occupied by
little Oceanus Hopkins, who first saw
the light of day far out at sea.
The death waa that of Dorothy May,
wife of Wllllsm Bradford, future gov
ernor of Plymouth colony. She was
drowned. t , . .
First of Importance, however, of
all that occurred here, and also In
the sequence of events, was the draw
ing up and signing of the famous com
pact of government, originally desig
nated by Bradford In hla history aa "a
combination." And so It was. In the
most literal sense, a combination.
Thla agreement, made in writing by
a little group of Englishmen who had
been dismissed by their mother coun
try as "good riddance to bad rubbish,"
la now treasured by the nation In
America, to which they contributed a
much a one of three great documents.
The other two are the Declaration of
Indeiiendeuce ami the Constitution of
the United Slates.
Begone Dull Facta.

The elder child, a falr-halred skeptic
from a northem state, scornfully de
clared that he didn't believe the story;
but the swarthy, dark-eyed little Texan
solemnly asserted: "Yes, It's time; I
know It's true; foh this mo'nln' I
read It In mah Bible." The midget
doesn't know one letter of the alpha

pinned down to vulgar fact when Ml
spirit wishes to soar. Are children
