Sam Waiter Eos

er, was the goddess of c0rnfields and
harvests. Her daughter, PersephOne,
while gathering flowers one day, was
kidnapped by Pluto. Demeter searched
for her long by land and sea, and at
last learned that her lost daughter had
been married TO Pluto, the dark spec
ter of the underworld, and that she
was now his queen in the realm be-
low. But Persephone had eaten a
pomegranate seed and could remain
with her mother only part of the year.
This made Demeter angry, and she left
the gods and made her dwelling upon
the earth. She taught Celeus, king of
Eleusis, agriculture, how to pillow, SOW
and reap. This feast was one of the
grandest of the Greek festivals.
The Romans celebrated harvest
festival called the Cerealia. 1t took
its name from Ceres, who was the
Demeter of the Romans, and the feast
was celebrated at some time in the
month of October. Sacrifices of the
best fruits and honey cakes were of
fered up in the temple. Professions
were made to the fields by men and
women dressed in white and crowned
with oak leaves and poppies.
Coming down to more modern
time, we read of thanksgivings in Hol-
land and in England, the recollection
of whose harvest homes" perhaps,
inspired the Puritans to inaugurate the
custom in this country. The first
Thanksgiving on American soil, ac-
cording to the well credited chronicler,
Edward Winslow, was held in 1921. 10
months after the landing of the Pill
grims, when, the crops being garnered,
they felt spring up within their hearts
a feeling of praise and Thanksgiving.
1t lasted almost week, and was par
ticipated in by King Massasoit and
80 of his braves, who were Toasted and
entertained for three days, the new.
Corners showing their guests their pro-
ficiency in arms, experiences In wres-
Ting, etc. To show their prowess in
turn, "the Indians went out and killed
five deer. which they brought to the
plantation and bestowed On the gov
ernor and upon Captain Miles Standish
and others" fine contribution to the
feast.

League Of Nations Cove
nant.

Washington.-Squ Joining the
issue with President Wilson, the SEN
ate adopted Thursday reservation
qualifying the obligations of the Unit.
ed States under article 10 of the league
of nations covenant.
A solid republican lineup, reinforced
by four democratic votes, put the
reservation across exactly as it came
from the foreign relations committee
and in virtually the same language
which the president declared on his
Western tour would cut the heart out
of the covenant and mean the rejection
of the treaty. The vote by which the
reservation won was 46 to 80.
The article 10 reservation as adopt
ed by the senate follows:
The United States assumes no
obligation to preserve the terri
tOrial integrity or political indie
pendence of any other country or
to interfere with controversies be-
tween nations-whether members
of the league or not-under the
provisions of article TO-. or to en-
ploy the military or naval forces
of the United States under any
article Of the treaty for any pur-
pose, unless in any particular case
the congress which, under the
constitution, has the sole power to
declare war or authorize the en-
ployment of the military or naval
forces of the United States, shall
by act or joint resolution SO pro-
vide.
