Ii was thus that Mrs. Heman sang the
landing Of the pilgrims at Plymoth, and
she might have added that the Puritan
fathers were nearly as stern as the coast
on which they landed. But, rigid as
were their tenets, they could not alto
gether shake Of their inheritance from
generations OF English ancestors who
thought innocent teasting and iollity no
sin. The first harvest OF the pilgrims
was gathered in l62l. and old Governor
Bradford appointed a day at thanksgiv-
ing. the evening of which, we may sup
pose, was relieved OF austerity by the
carnal means Of mince and pumpkin pie
and mayhap a mug of hot cider. Since
that time we-io not think the "Old Bay
State has missed a Thanksgiving"
During the Revolutionary War, the con-
g.ess annually appointed day OF
thanksgiving. After the adoption OF
the constitution, Washington several
times recommended a day OF thanksgiv-
ing but il never became a national holi-
day until Abraham Lincoln issued a
proclamation for one in 1867. Now it is
co-extensive with the Union, and in all
states the children will soon be flocsing

Glass is the chief article OF construction In
the new building. It's walls are constructed of
q series OF glass boxes filled with a solution OF
alum. These boxes are formed OF TWO paneS Of
glass, each fUur-tenths OF an inch in thickness.
The glass is liked In iron frames screwed to-

the space is covered with boards. The roof is

too, is glass, with strips OF rubber covering the
joints. Over the glass is spread thin layer of
ashes, and upon this is placed a light wooden
frame, which is covered with cement to protect
the interior from the radiation Of heat. The
building has outer and inner walls, with space
