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.

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
