The entire machine is mounted on
truck wheels to make it easy to move
to the trees or logs, and from cut to
cut on a log 1oithout stopping the en-
CINE. For moving on the road, the
truck wheels are placed parallel with
the skids and the rig hauled straight
ahead. The wheels turn on a two
way spindle. You do not have to take
them off, but can change direction Of
wheel travel by merely taking out a
pin.
The Ottawa can be fitted for saw
ing down trees. 1t cuts level with
surface of ground, thereby getting all
the timber and leaving no stumps
sticking up. An automatic friction
clutch stops the saw in case of undue
resistance. Two men can fall forty
70 fifty trees a day in ordinary timber.
The whole outfit is compact, simple,
durable against a lifetime of hard
wear. 1t sells for q low price and is
fully guaranteed for reliable opera
ton In the hands of every one who has
trees to cut down and logs to work up.
Full information and low factory
price to you can be had simply by adj

DIDN'T FEEZE HIS BROTHER
Of Course He Was Not Going to Ad-
nit That the Little Fellow
Was Afraid.

An Indianapolis matron was giving
a birthday party for her little daugh-

joyed the party and made many quaint
remarks.
But at the supper table they did the
best. Suddenly the fuse burned out
and the dining room was in darkness.
The hostess urged the children to sit
still until she could get some candles.
But you may eat what is on your
plates If you wish to while / am hunt

The youngest son of the parsonage
began to weep aloud. He was really

'HONk, HONKP THERE YOU ARE
After That It Was Easy to Understand
Where Old Lady Wanted Let
ter to Go.

A portly Dutch woman applied to
the post office for a money order to
send to her son in the far East. She
told the clerk she had left her sons
letter at home, but said he was "some
place out in China, dot sounds like der
noise an automobile makes"
The clerk smiled, and turning to an
other nearby, he said: "What kind
of a noise does an automobile make,
Joe?"
"Honk, honk!" the other suggested.
"Yah, dots it," explained the wom-
an, her face frightening. "Honk honk,
dots der place."
So the clerk made the order payable
to H~ongkong, and the woman went
away happy.

been drowned by falling from a boat
in the bay, and where-most note
worthy fact of all-had been written
and signed in the cabin of the May
flower what is known to the world as
the first purely democratic govern
ment eve produced, the Mayflower
compact guaranteeing to dwellers I'M
der the Pilgrim government equal
rights of living and being, no matter
what their standing may have been
in the past or what it might be in
the future. The compact was signed
on November II, 1920, just 300 years
to a day before the date of the sign
ing of another great democratic doc
trine, the armistice of the world war
to make the world safe for democ,
racy.
History tells us that the date of
the landing Of the Pilgrims at
Provincetown and the date of the
compact is November 81. The discrep-
ancy is due to the ten days difference
between old style time and new style
time. 1t was just one month later,
December II, old style, or December
Il, new style, that the Mayfiower
poked her nose around Duxbury Point
and headed for the shore.
The tercentenary celebration must
be held in Plymouth, say the adher-
ents of the mainland towns because
besides being the historically ac-
curate place where the Pilgrims
fought their fight against humiliation
and destruction, it is more easily ac-
cessible and all around better suited
in every way. It has more to show
the visitors to the celebration, and
has a bigger reputation to draw them
to 1t.
1.-THE celebration must De held in
Provincetown," say the dwellers in
the Cape Cod claimant to the honor,
because this is the true landing
place of the Pilgrim Fathers. Here
they terminated the terrible wintry
voyage and were able to get fresh
water and fresh food at the end of
the trip; here they signed the com
pact under which they governed the
colony; it was from the hill on which
now stands the Pilgrims Memorial
monument, that they first saw the
mainland, and it was here they spent
Il month Of recuperation before press
ing ahead to the West. And we have
the monument to prove our claim"
Whether the celebration will be held
here in Plymouth or in P~rovincetown,
or whether 1t will be held at all, are
still moot questions, and perhaps
the latter possibility is the best solu-
ton of the problem. There Is still a
year to decide, and some way may be
found of averting bloodshed In the ar
gument between the two disputants for
final honors in the "Pilgrim Arrival
Stakes"

and brought there in sterilized and
sanitary clothing.
The Red Cross report showed that
there had been fifty deaths aboard the
train between the time 1t had left
PERM and the time the rescuers
reached 1t at Razdolne.
Being refused help in all directions
the Red Cross workers did the only
thing possible. They ran the death
train out on the prairie and extern
porized a field hospital. One by one
the living skeletons were taken from
their train, their clothing stripped of
and burned and the men given a
securing bath and then placed aboard
the Red Cross train.
The effect of the clean clothes, the
kindnesses, in such contrast to What
they had previously undergone, and
the hope finally held out for recovery
was almost miraculous.

Women's New Walk.

While the new skirts are a little
longer than the modes favored during
the past three or four years, they are
much narrower. Tho new skirt re-
quires a new walk. "For several years."
says a ~dressmaking authority, women
have enjoyed the freedom of their
limbs, and the effect is noticeable in
the masculine stride Of the modern
girl. With the narrow skirt action
will be restricted, and we shall have
once more the short steps of the hob
BILE skirt. With wider hips, however,
she will gain in grace what is lost in
freedom. The ley walk will be like
the walk Of a pelican-mincing but
graceful, deliberate yet dainty. and al
ways a%lluringly feminine"

WONDERING OVER
PILGRIM FATHERS

Plymouth, Mass.-With the three
hundredth anniversary Of the landing
of the Pilgrim Fathers little more
than a year away, Plymouth is cogi-
tating eagerly and blindly as to wheth-
er 'the tercentenary celebration of
the great event is going to be held in
Plymouth or in PrOvincetown, on the
tip of Cape Cod, where the first land
fall Of the storm-tossed passengers of
the Mayflowers really took place, or
if the celebration can be divided, CIV
ing each town part of the glory and
incidentally of the increased trade and
custom that will result.
1t is a fact little known to the peO-
pie of these United States and ignored
by most histories that Plymouth has
for years been basking unjustly in
the white light of fame as the first
landing place Of the Pilgrim Fa-
theirs.
First Landed at Provincetown.
When the Mayfower sailed into Ply
mouth harbor it came from Province
town, 80 miles directly across Massa-
chusetts bay, where the hundred
hardy souls fleeing from religious per-
secution had already spent a month
ashore, where the Pilgrim Mothers
had done a tremendous washing after
two months at sea, with clean linen at
a premium; where Dorothy Bradford,
wife of William Bradford, subsequent
ly governor of Plymouth colony, had
