crops, as a whole, had been good, the
the settlement had been put into con-
dition and a goodly stock Of furs and
prepared lumber had been made ready
for export to England by the next
ship. The waters swarmed with fish
and sea fowl were abundant. The call
of the wild turkey was heard in the
woods and the patter of the fieeting
deer was nothing strange.
The summer was past; the harvest
ended. The pilgrims decided upon a
period of recreation. The governor
sent out four huntsmen, who In one

Thus, heartily and Loyalty, was inau-
Surated the great New England festi-

but it has now become national, its
annual return finding welcome from
boundary to boundary, both at top
and bottom and either extremity of
the nation.
Thanksgiving day is peculiarly an
American custom, though there are
some writer's who claim that it is not
possible to determine the date Of the
first observance. John A. Goodwin,
in his historical review, ''The Pilgrim
Republic" is positive, however. that
the first celebration occurred in the
fall of 1921, this being followed in 1923
by the first Thanksgiving proclama-
ton, by the governor of Massachu-
sets. In 1880 there arrived at Plym-

$50 colonists, making the number
nearly 1900 instead of a mere 800 On

RAPID FALL OF THE SEINE
CONDITIONS IN PARIS AP
PROACHING THE NORMAL.
Ambassador Bacon Says Distress Will
Be Prolonged-Foreign Con-
tributions to Relief. 100000.

PARIS, February 4-The fall of the
river Seine was more rapid today. The
appearance of the city is approaching the
normal, but the subway system Is still
imperative. Water still remains in the
tubes, which. after they have been emp
tied, must be cleansed and disinfected.
The progress toward the restoration of
the lighting, telephone and telegraph
lines is slow but noticeable.
The work of disinfection and other pre-
cautions against an epidemic of typhoid
has been SO thorough that some of the
newspapers predict that Paris will not
only escape contagion. but will emerge
from the flood cleaner than before in
her history.
Sewer Mains Intact.
The superintendent of sewers reports
that from the examinations which he has
been able to make thus far 1t is evident
that few of the sewer mains burst, the

it appear that diSsensions are rampant

Foreign contributions to the relief fund
totaled today about $7OOnAO.
At noon the River Seine had fallen
nearly ten feet from its crest.
Former Senator Clark Sends 81 900.
Among today's American contributions
to the relief fund was 81 900 from former
United States Senator William A. Clark
of Montana The amount of the English
contributions has now forged ahead of
the total from the United States by
SSO. 900.
Ambassador Bacon, in reply to an in
quiry from Boston, has cabled that the
distress of the victims. who include
thousands of workmen in enforced idle
ness. is likely to be prolonged, and that
additional contributions would be splen-
did sort of charity.
