(Br United Proa to The Bend Bulletin) PLYMOUTH, Mass., Doc. 11. Three hundred years ngo today, in the bitter cold of a northern win ter, a little band of Intropid men and women, seeking freedom in religious thought and action, disembarked from their staunch little vessel, the Mayflower, and started the first set tlement in the wilds of what is now Massachusetts. The SOOlh anniversary of the land ing of the Pilgrims was celebrat ed here today almost on the very spot on which the first settler set loot,, Ceremonies commemorating the day were carried out in the shadow of historic Plymouth Rock. Hundreds of direct descendants of the Pilgrims were here tS do honor to their ancestors. t The ceremonies were staged In Old Colony theater, in which were as sembled scores of prominent men and women of the nation and representa tives of foreign countries. Among those who took part In the ceremonies were: Calvin Cool idge, vice president-elect; Sir Auck land Geddes, ambassador from Great Britain; General Robert Georges Klvelle, representing France, and many others. Louis K. Liggetr who presided at the meeting, presented Vice President-elect Calvin Coolidge, who, in a brief address, paid a tribute to the work of the Pilgrim tercentary com mission, which arrainged the celebra tion, and spoke on the landing of the Pilgrims. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, a Pil grim descendant, made the principal address of the celebration on "The Pilgrims of Plymouth." He painted a vivid picture of the landing of the little band of settlers in a wild and unknown country, in which they were beset by many dangers in their ef forts to establish homes. Outlining their reasons for seeking homes in an unknown country, Senator Lodge described their trials in the years in which they sought to gain a living from the virgin soil. He told of their mode of governing themselves and of their struggle against the In dians. Following Senator Lodge's address, the audience, led by Rev. A. B. Whit ney of the First Church of of Ply mouth, knelt in prayer for several minutes. Children at the Bread Kitchens r Throe and a half million children In eastern and central Europe wait. gaunt and pinched like these, at the American kitchens tor the hoi soup, and bread that mean life to them. In the winters slnca the Armistice, America has been the one friend that bad food to give them. It la a common sight In Europe today to see a child five or six years old whose head has not healed. With a heulthy well fed baby the skull should close before two year. America must see these children through the rigors of another winter, and to that end eight greut relief organizations hnva combined Into the Kuropean Relief Council They seek to raise $33,000,000 to save this generation of Europe from death by atarvatlon and the diseases that com with under-feeding. REAL TURK NOT MONEY MAD Recognizes There Are Higher Things . in Life Than Practicing Buying ' and Selling. The real Turk, unlike the so-called mongrel Turk, does not have to Im press his sense of superiority on oth ers. And, although the latter Is al ways eager to do business with you. according to Mr. Herbert Gibbons In Asia, the real Turk Is often quite in different. Some real Anatolian Turks are mer chants 'inl sit in the bazaars. But they will not go out of their way to make a sale,- and they really donot care whether you buy or not Often they Ignore strangers; sometimes they rebuff them. When yon meet with this type In the bazaars where all the Jews and Gentiles are hard after your Boney, U is like a. dash of cold wa ter In your face. Once In a III tie open shop I saw a rug that attracted me. I started to enter, but the crouched figure on ttfe mat put out a long-flngered left hand, grasped firmly my ankle, and removed my foot outside the threshold. I thought there must be some supersti tion about which foot went first; so I tried the other. The same left hand proved again Its strength. All the while the merchant did not speak or look op. His right hand was string ing beads, and he was smoking a oar glle. He simply did not want to bother with me, and my shoe told him that I was a frnngga (Europenn). Later I got to know that old bird, and we laughed over stories together. But he never asked me to buy anything, and I did not want to risk his friend ship by making a second try for th rug. There are more Important things In life than buying and selling. "SQUEEZE" POPULAR IN CHINA What the Western' World Calls "Graft" Is Practiced by All Classes In That Country. One trait Brmly Imbedded In the Chinese chnracter which the foreign business man and the housewife both have to contend with Is the weakness for "squeeze." It Is said by foreigners that the Chinese merchant, coolie, politician, fisherman, chauffeur and beggar would rather make $1 by "squeeze" - than $10 ffy the same amount of brain work or manual la bor. Squeeze Is Chinese for graft It Is a word In that International Far East ern tongue known as pldgln-Engllsh. But squeeze Is something more than graft Its political phase might be termed graft, and that form of squeeze Is what makes the military governors of the provinces and the politicians of Peking and Canton so fat. Most Chi nese politicians would have been ac ceptable In the eyes of Julius Caesar, and squeeze Is the reason for some of the corpulence. In China. Squeeze Is the Chinese translation of "as much as the traffic will bear." It Is a factor In Chinese business, as much as supply and demand, or profit and loss.
