A Pilgrim Holiday The first Thanksgiving day observed in America was in 1621 when Governor Bradford of the Plymouth colony of Pilgrims set aside a day for thanksgiving for the preserva tion of the colonists and for their harvest. Since then it has been an annual observance, a harvest holiday appointed by the president and-governors of the various states, observed the last Thursday of November. The Mayflower with 41 male passengers, exclusive of servants, about 1G0 males and females in all had landed at Plymouth, Mass., in December, 1620. They were members of a separatist congregation known as Brownists, which for religious freedom, had removed from Scrooby village, Eng land to Holland in 1608. They could not reconcile them selves to a country alien in manners and speech and deter mined to emigrate to America. Crossing from Delft Haven, they sailed to Southampton, England, were joined by others and embarked in the Mayflower, September 6, 1620. During the first year the colonists had many hardships to face. Fully half of them were dead from privation and starvation when the second ship-load of Pilgrims numbering about 30 arrived in the fall of 1621. In 1623, 60 other col onists came over. Following them, during the reign of Charles I, a great wave of Puritan migration built up the colony on Massachusetts Bay. Although the Pilgrims were classed as a Puritan sect, they were not directly affiliated with the main body that followed them, called Independents, who had little toleration for any tenets but their own, were fanatical and bigotted, Compared with the latter, the Pilgrims were liberal and tol erant, though extremely pious and God-fearing, 0 that the jostled her uncomfortably, A woman's sharp elbow dug Into her side, a man stepped heavily on ho? foot, leaving her -white shoe smudged with black. And she had stayed up the night before to woah out some things and to clean her shoes! She tried so hard to look nice in the office, to be well groom ed and things like this were al ways hiippcning! "Oh, well nobody can have everything, and I've got more than most!" Wary told herself; she was hajpy ngain by the time she reach- od her locker, and when she took her place at her desk and began dusting it and cleaning her type writer with a long-handled brush sho woa ready to sing with Joy. Stewart Howe asked her only the week before how sho'd like to go out Into the country with him nomo afternoon. They could have lunch In town, and then take a train, for about half an hour's ride, and got to a placo he knew of that was Juat pure country. It might have been a thousand miles from thocity They'd tako a walk, and have din ner at a little Inn, and then ride hack to town Just at sunsot on the huge Interurban car, on the front scat, that was like riding In your own automobile. Sho looked ncrojuj the office to Stowart Howe's desk. Itlg, dark haired, broad shouldered he look ed tho story book hero, certainly. He was by far the beet looking man in the office, The girls liked to Hpoculato nbout him, to exchange tho bits of Information they had heard trbout him, when he first camo. They all knew now, two months after his arrival, that ho was tho son of a wenlthy Texas dealer, had graduated from one of the big colleges, traveled a white boforo going to work. They had envied Mary when he asked to have her take his dicta tion, had Joked her about the night when some of them worked late and Stewnrt had naked her to have dinner with him in the little tea room downstairs. Probobly lie's just grateful to you for helping him out when he so many mistakes," Janot had said tt her rather cattily. "You've raved Him more than once, and every body knows It." Mary hadn't answered; she knew that Janet was Jealous. Stewart was so much nicer than any of the boys she and Janet and Mary's cousin Lulu knew. She hadn't told Janet about those plans for some Saturday afternoon. Today, looking ovor at him, she wondered If this would be the Sat urday. It was a gorgeous day. Sho looked at herself In the little mir ror she kept In a drawer of her desk. She had washed her hair the night before; it was beautifully soft ana golden. Her little blue linen dress that sho had made herself deepened the blue of her eyes. She mulled back at her reflection In the mirror, and then retrned to her work again. After all. what did It matter that other girls had more money, and beautiful homes, and didn't hove to work for a living? It was fun to work, fun Just to be alive, fun to "Miss Waltc " The voice of Mrs. Eaton, tho office manager, ' cut through ho? dreams. "This Is Miss Ilu tier's afternoon to stay at the office and mind the switchboard, but she's been taken 111 and gone home. So you'll have to stay today Instead of next week." , "Oh, but I I" To stay In tho office, all alone, that gorgeous day, Just because the Craig brothers, tho heads of the company would stay and work It was too unfair! - Mrs. Eaton walked away. Not ton minutes later Stewart Howe stopped at her desk. 'How about . going off to the country this afternoon?" he asked softly, so tha not even the girl at tho next desk could hear him. I've borrowed a car from a friend of mine, nnd " 'Oh, I can't!" Mary's blue eyes wern misty with tears as she look ed up at him. "I'vo got to stay and mind the switch board." "Why, say, can't you get out of that? Just don't stay." "If I did that, I might lose my Job," she answered, hopelessly. Of course he couldn't realize that It wm Impossible to get out of doing what you wore told to do. He was living on what he earned, and all that but he knew that his father's fortune was behind htm. Losing his Job wouldn't mean much to him! And if she lost hors Mary turn ed could at the thought. "Oh, well, some other time, may be," he answered nfte a moment and turning sharply on his heel, walked away. Mary tried to comfort herself by thinking that his voice sounded disappointed. But it was . cold comfort, as slfo sat In the big emp ty office all afternoon, answering the few calls, nnd typing form let ters between times. Tomorrow An Adventure In Idvlng. Cooking Not Lost Art Here, Interest In School Reveals .Continued from Page Ono) toucher of the first cooking school to be keld In Salem. An additional feature of -the three-day school has been the pie. cake and mayonulsse dressing con test. Hundreds oE cakes and pies, and jars of mayonalsse were brought to the armory this morn ing by some of the host cooks in Salem and the surrounding nts- tricts.

This afternoon Miss Lowen is roasting the turkey which was pro- pared and stuffed at yesterduy's class session; she is making crau berry Jelly, plum pudding and pumpkin nie. Because of the nrox- Ity of Thanksgiving much of the time of the school has been devot ed to "turkey day" dishes. Accord ing to the deep intcroat shown in the classes some of the ' heat yet Thanksgiving dinners will be served In Salem homes tomorrow. Cooke who have seen years of service have learned many new things In watchtngMies Lowen. To the inexperienced her classes have been a revelation.- So many new Ideas to make for speed In the kitchen and the easier handling of food little things like a cover for the roliug pin, a canvas covering for the pastry, board, adding ol a little acid such as lemon juice to the water used to make a "snappy pastry," putting all seasoning on the inside of fowl-before roasting, getting the tendons out of a tur key drumstick, new ideas in serv ing salads these are only a row or tho things that were incidentals In the class period yesterday.

The list of prize winners in the contests will be published in to morrow's Capital Journal. EI Peking, Nov. 25. (A. P.)

Uainlal Journal Want Ads Hsy DUMB DORA Uplifting the Homes Under Mayor Baker's beneficient regime, Portland had ; been purified, we had the word of the preachers during the recent municipal campaign for that. Then Billy Sunday ar- i rived and saved most of the residents from their sins. Doc . Price has followed with hypnotic healing to rescue the rem- i nant. Vet things seem to be in a bad way in the metropolis, ; the crime wave continues and youth jazzes joyously to dem f nition. Somebody is responsible. There being no saloons to blame, and the dives having been padlocked, the public dance halls sanctified, and the police purged, the Ministerial Asso- ciation has picked the parents as the goats and launched a crusade to uplift them. Mass-meetings are being held all over town, while every pulpit resounds with sermons lj re store religion in the home. . We are glad to note that among the leaders in this home missionary work is the Oregonian. For a time during the Billy Sunday revivals we feared for the Oregonian. Billy consigned its editors to hell, but the castigation proved salu tary, for the Oregonian turned from its evil ways, got on the mourners' bench and put Billy back on the front page. Now Doc Price has probably hypnotised it, for its editor preaches at the auditorium prayer meetings, and its cartoonist turns stern moralist. The extent of the Oregonian's conversion was displayed on the first page of yesterday's issue. A very touching and inspiring cartoon depicts the ship of "American Youth" stranded on a rock in the sea off the bluff of "Religious Faith," on which stands a darkened light-house labelled "Un selfish Love" ngainst a cottage "American Home." In the breakers of "pleasure madness" are a herd of swine, branded "idleness," "vulgarity," "crime," "jazz," etc., enjoying them selves. The picture bears the caption "When the Light Goes Out," though what it means nobody knows. However the Oregonian's light hasn't gone out, for just above and alongside the picture, with the hogs of "immoral ity," "selfishness" and "sex-filth" next reading matter, arc the full and minute details of "new sensations" in the un speakable Rhinelnnder case, telling how letters too full of sex filth to be published were read in court, nnd how the negro brido " bared the color of her skin to the jurors, by remov ing some of her clothing," etc., for several columns. So the pulchriludinous Oregonian conducts its welfare crusade for restoring holiness to the homes by splattering salacious scandal over its front page to save youth from moral degradation by familiarizing them with the depravity of tho degenerate, while it toots its whistle in prayer for the reform of parental Love's Greatest Gift By VIOLET DARE ANOTIIKIl C1IHIS VK1IIXG 'Think ot It ten million dol lars!
