quaint account Of the landing of the
Pilgrims at Provincetown:
"Wednesday, the sixth Of September
(l62O), the wind coming East North
East, fine small gale, we loosed from
Plymouth, having been kindly enter
tanned and courteously used by divers
friends their dwelling. and after many
difficulties In boysterius stormes, at
length by Gods providence upon the
ninth of November following, by breake
of the day we espied land which we
esteemed to be Cape Cod, and so 1t
proved. And the appearance of 1t much
comforted us, especially on seeing so
goodly a land, and Wooded to the
brink OF the sea, 1t caused us to re-
joyce together and praise God that He
had given it to us once againe to see
land. And thus we made our course
South South West, purposing to go to
River ten Leagues to the South Of
the Cape, but at nighte, the wind be-
Ing contrary, we put rounde againe
for the Bay Of Cape Cod, and upon
the IL we came to an anchor in the
Bay, which is good Harbour and a
pleasant Bay, circled round except in
the entrance, which is about four miles
over from land to land, compassed
about to the very Sea with Okes, Pines,
Juniper, SaSsafras and other sweet
wood; 1t has a harbour wherein one
thousand sale Of ships may safely
ride, there we relieved ourselves with
wood and water, and refreshed our
people, while our shallop was fitted to
coast the Bay to search for a habita-
ton, there was the greatest store Of
fowle that ever we saw"
The Pilgrims had hard time the
first winter at Plymouth, but in 1921
determined TO have period of rec
reation, combined with Thanksgiving
for their many mercies." The gov
ernor thereupon sent out four hunts
men who In one day secured enough
game for the purpose. Massasoit, the
Indian chief was invited to participate
In this first thanksgiving. He accept
ed and brought 90 people with him.
The celebration lasted three days.
The first Thanksgiving day observed
by all the states Of the Union was rec
commended by proclamation Of con-
gress after the surrender Of Burgoyne
in 1777 and was fixed for Thursday,
December 10. Each year thereafter
until 1884 congress continued to rec
ommend a day for Thanksgiving, the
several states accepting the date. Then
for time the observance was left
wholly to the states. The day had Its
ups and downs. President Lincoln

METHOD IN THEIR MOVEMENT
Veteran Of the Plains Explained Why
BuffaIoes Invariably Travelled on
Zio-Zao Course.

No person ever saw a herd of buf-
falO move in straight line. They al
ways took a zig-zag course. The late
Buffalo" Jones explained this as fol
lows: "a buffalo Is very cautious
animal. His shaggy forehead prevents
him seeing objects on either side. To
prevent surprise from an enemy he
walks obliQuely to the right and then
to the left and thus gets an unob-
structed view Of the surrounding coun-
try"
The buffalo had many small traits
that are lacking in cattle. The buffalo
never mired In swamps or pools as
cattle do. When they found they were
becoming stuck they threw themselves
on their sides and swan or padded
through the mud as hog does. They
always had guards out day and night,
to warn the herd Of approaching dan.
ger. They always faced a storm and
never "drifted," as do cattle. They
lay down with their heads to the
flercest storms, tossing their heads
around on their sides and sleepinx
contentedly, while the great mass of
fur on their humps protected them
from the winds.

their influence upon the nation was
small as compared with the Puritans.

with them to reform 1t; they Intended
to worship as they pleased and to

sonally in the mad rush of the TWEEN
lieth century to give thought to them
Next year the tercentenary of their
landing will be celebrated with con-
siderable pomp and ceremony in the
United States, England and Holland.
Every American schoolboy of course
knows that the Pilgrim Fathers Off
cially landed on Plymouth Rock. and
that the famous rock Is at Plymouth,
Mass. But there are comparatively
few Americans who know that the first
landing OF the Pilgrims was at
Provincetown, Mass, and are familiar
with their doings during the month.
The Mayfiower lay In the quiet har-
Dor inside Cape Cod.
There was no Provincetown there,
Of course, in 1920, but Cape Cod was
there and its name was Cape Cod
In 1902 Bartholomew Gosnold. the ex-
plorer, had visited the reglcn and had
found Goldfish so plentiful that he had
Just naturally called the long narrow

and both ships put In at Dartmouth.
At sea again, the Speedwell was a Sec

was made to Plymouth. 1t was not
discovered until later that the alarm
over the Speedwell was due to its mas

abandoned at Plymouth and the size
Of the party reduced. The Mayflower
left Plymouth alone early In Septem-
Der.
In nine weeks 1t sighted the shore
OF Cape Cod. Being far out of their
course the Pilgrims headed south. But
few hours later the course was again
changed for the nearest shore. Sat

the Mayflower rounded Cape Cod and
found harbor.
This radical change of destination
introduced a complication. Some of
the hired laborers threatened to break
