G LOVELY up the river three vessels
y made their way with the light
though favoring breeze. Gradually
the open of the bay was left behind,
as two days previously the open of
the sea had been shut out. Now the
land was closing in on each side, and
each ship was alive with the figures
of those who were eagerly scanning
the shore. And what they saw was a
welcome sight. The April sun was
shining on the forests on both banks;
elms, they saw, like old friends,
stretching out their branches In
friendly protection; oaks, too, knotted
and knarled, seemed to voice a well
come. On nearer approach they saw
masses of dogwood in brilliant bloom,
and other shrubs in flower, whose
fragrance was waited over to them
as a pleasant incense. And there was
a riot of sweet birds songs coming
out Of the woods.
Truly it was paradise that they
had come to, and many fell on their
knees in thanksgiving that they had

night they sailed on up the river,
and then the sails were furled, the
anchor dropped and their long jour
new was at an end.
Thus came the colonists who, few
weeks later, founded jamestown, in
Virginia, the first English settlement
in America, which they named after
King James 1. Starting in three small
vessels, one of them but twenty tons
in burden, they had taken more than
four months in crossing.
At first they had only tents to live
in. 1t was late to plant, and food
was not plentiful. And they soon
learned that terror and death lurked
in the land. Indians had stolen up,
and with bows and arrows wounded
seventeen of the men and killed a
boy. The thunder, of muskets had
driven them away, but the settlers
felt 1t necessary to keep continuous
watch, and each man sat up every

Four-score years and ten have

Simon Bolivar Buckner, ripening his

General Buckner has not lived upon
buttermilk or discovered the elixir of
life, but has lived normally, wisely
and well. For a long time he has
found occupation at Glen Lily amid
the mild concerns of ordinary life"

with joints creaking and the lamp of
reason burning low, then those who
