The Pilgrims

The Pilgrims lived in England but
they did not like the king. He was
not kind to them. He would not
let them go to their own church.
Then they went to Holland. They
lived there in Holland twelve years.
They saw the Dutch people there
wear wooden shoes. Then they
made themselves a boat. It's name
is Mayflower. They went to Amer
lea on the sea. A great storm came
and rocked the Mayflower about.
They landed on Plymouth rock.
Then the men built log house
and church and school house.
They met the Indians in America
They were kind to them. They
showed them how to fish and plant
corn.
Then they had Thanksgiving.
They invited the Indians. Some of
them didn't come because they had
babies and were afraid they would
cry.

TURKEY ESCAPES DEATH

Once a turkey was very unhap-
py because he knew he was going
to be killed for Thanksgiving.
When Thanksgiving day came the
cook came out in the yard and said,
81 am going to kill you in an hour"
Then the cook went in the house.
After a while a rooster came along
and asked him why he looked so
unhappy. So the turkey told him.
The rooster said Il wouldn't be un-
happy, come along with me-" The
turkey went along and the cook
had to have chicken for dinner.

ANNA'S THANKSGIVING
MAKES HER HAPPY

Once there were two little girls.
One was rich and the other poor.
The rich girls name was Mary
Ruth and the poor girls name was
Anna.
One day when it was almost
Thanksgiving, Mary Ruth thought
how nice 1t would be to ask some
girls and all give some money and
get big dinner for Anna and the
family.
She asked five little girls about
1t and they said 1t was just lovely.
They all gave fifty cents apiece.
On Thanksgiving morning all the
girls came over to Mary Ruth's
house. Mary Ruth's mother had a
big basket ready. Then the girls
all went over to Anna's house and
went into the kitchen. They put
the basket on the table then went
in the room. Anna and the family
were eating breakfast.
Mary Ruth ran to Anna and whis-
pered something. Then she asked
Annals mother to 60 into the kitch-
en-. She was so surprised.
Then the girls went out to play.
About noon Annals mother called
them in to dinner. -
They ate all they wanted. Anna
said she had never had such q
good dinner and happy time.

WATSONICAN sOPnSTRY.

Editor the News Times:
James Eli Watson said at the high
school Saturday night that the
Adamson bill is a gold brick. viii
he repeal it? He says it will reduce
wages. Then why did the railroads
oppose it? why did the brother
hoods call off the strike?
Watson says that under the Adam
son law the engineer on the passen-
ger train from Indianapolis to Gin
cinau who makes his run in four
hours will get only half his present
wage. The Adarnson eight hour day
applies to the freight service alone.
This is a striking bit Of his sOphistry.
Watson says the protective tariff
is necessary TO keep up wages. Does
il keep up wages in railroading? No,
that is done by collective bargain
ing. Does il keep up the wages Of
carpenters, masons, plumbers? What
schedule protects them? on the
other hand the industries protected
the highest pay their men the least
1t was to compel the steel manufac-
turers to put some of their protected
earnings into the pay envelope that
the progressiyes adopted their slo-
gan, Pass Prosperity Around.
Watson fails to explain how we
can send goods 10 China and success
fully compete with Japan there.
when we need a protective tariff 70
keep japanese goods out Of Amer
ica,-hOw we can compete with the
'pauper labor" Of Europe in South
American ports but not in our own.
Watson mentions Mexico. There
has always been trouble there. and
], for one. hope there Will be trouble
there until freedom is achieved I'm
til representative government takes
the place OF a ruthless exploitation
Of the poems more heartless than
the debaucehery Of the peasants OF
France before the Bastile fell. If
Mexico brushes Diazism in a cen
fury, il Will be a. century we'll spent
Watson speaks Of Lincoln. Sixty
odd years ago the great emancipa-
tor said through his secretary of
state. For a few years past the
condition OF Mexico has been so
unsettled as 10 raise the question on
both sides the Atlantic whether the
time has not come when some for
eign power ought 10 intervene-tO
esta blish a protectorate and guaran-
tee its continuance. You will not
fail 10 assure the government Of
Mexico that the president neither
has, nor can have. any sympathy
with such designs. in whatever
quarter they may arise or whatever
character they may take on.
Hughes says. America needs a
Lincoln. She has one.

Lewis Nixon, a close student OF in

years a prominent figure in public

has had an opportunity to observe
the trend of public opinion in many

The big thing is that you protected
