FRIDAY HAPPENINGS.
They Register Many Important Events
In American History.

l ney Register MANY Important Events
In American History.
Are you Il good American and do you
look on Friday as an unlueky day -?
You are not superstitious and are quite
sure that one day is just like another
as far as national Significance is CON
cerned? No doubt that's IS true, and yet
the Importance OF Friday in American
history, as it has been worked out,
makes an almost convincing showing
for itself. We have nod forgotten that
Columbus discovered The new world on
Friday, Oct. l., 1892 bid you know
that he also set sail on the sixth day
OF the week. that he started ON his re-
turn voyage on that dig and that he
reached palos on another Friday? In
addition to six vital points in the Co
lumbus exploration, whlh were mark
cd by Fridays. that dry was carried
over into our national experiences with
England.
Cabots commission frpm Henry VIII
bears the date of Friday. On that day
of the week the Maylorer landed, and
on much earlier Fridpy the town of
Sc. Augustine was founded One G..
Washington was born On Friday. and
that day marked the seiaing Of Bunker
Hill, the surrender OF Burgoyne at Sar-
atoga, the discovery Of Arnod's trea-
son and the surrender OF Lord Corn
wallis at Yorktown. This was in 1871.
almost five long years after John
Adams made the famous motion in the
Continental congress hat "the United
States are and ought to be independ-
eut." That declaration was made on
Friday, the 18th OF July, 17T6, three
days after the actual drawing up of
the Declaration of independence and
six years after the Boston massacre,
which precipit0ted the Revolution.-St.
