All countries will be asked not to

TERCENTENARY OF
PILGRIM LANDING

Washington, Aug. 4-President Will
son in a proclamation today suggest
ed and requested" that December '21
be celebrated throughout the United
States as the tttercentenary of the
landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth
in 1920 and, appointed Samuel w.
Mccall and RicEard Hooker of Mass
achusetts and George Foster Peabody
of New York, as members of the Pill
grim tercentenary commission.
In the proclamation, the President
recommended that the day be fitting
1y observed ''to the end that sa1utary
and patriotic lessons may be drawn
from the fortitude, perseverance and
the ideals of the Pilgrims
The Presidents proclamation fol-
lows:
my fellow countrymen: December
81, next, will mark the tercentenary
of the landing of the Pilgrims at
Plymouth in 1920. The day will be
becomingfy celebrated at Plymouth
under the auspices of the Plymouth
tercentenary commission and at 9TH
er localities in Massachusetts. While
this is proper and praiseworthy, it
seems to me that the Influences
which the ideals and principles of
the Pilgrims with respect to civil lib
erty and human rights have had upon
Nue IOILldLloh dilu SloW Ill VI Jul Al
stitutions and upon our development
and progress as a nation merits more
than a local expression of our obliga-
ton, and makes fitting nationwide OBJ
servance of the day.
ct, therefore, suggest and request
that the 21st of December, next, be
observed throughout the Union with
special patriotic services in order that
the great events in American history
that have resulted from the landing
of these hearty and courageous navi-
gators and colonisis, may be accsn-
tuated to the present generation of
American citizens. Especially do I
recomm end that the day be ftting1y
observed in the universities, colleges
and schools of our country to the end
that salutary and patriotic lessons
may be drawn from the fortftude and
perseverance and the ideals of this
| little band of churchmen and women
| who established on this continent the
| first self-deter1nined government bas-
and its equal application to all, and
thus planted the seeds from which
has sprung the mighty nation.

ARGUMENT Is
PROPHET OF AN
EARLY WINTER

The annual argument as to wheth-
er Katy did or Katy didn't, began last
night. Just what Katy is accused of
doing has never been solved, but each
year at this time or later, the little
chirrupers who contradict one an
other and themselves as to the do
ings of Katy, make their appearance
and for several weeks the night
air will be told vociferously that
Katy did and that Katy didn't.
The persons most interested in the
asseveration and denial are the farm
ers, for outside of the controversy
the appearance of the katydids is a
prophecy of frost. The farmers say
that within six weeks of the coming
of the katydids the first frost will
come.
If that is so the first frost will ar
rive in this section in the third week
of September.
