Poland.
Danzig is the only available route by
which this support might be sent, but
this channel is virtually blocked be-
cause of a lack of tonnage, and the

the need of her relying upon her own
resources.

And II they possessed no royal
charter they did possess something
that was far more valuable, the spien-
did spirit Of tolerance and sublime
faith in the religious value OF their
Bible. II has been noted that there
was vast difference between the de-
velopment OF the northern and the
southern parts Of the temperate west
ern hemisphere and many reasons
have been assigned for 1T. Each rea-
son may be a contributing cause but
no reason states IL more definitely
than the one, that the southern part
was developed by adventures whose
sole object was gathering riches and
gold, the northern part was developed
bT idealists and religious enthusiasts,
whose sole object was TO found homes.
And this difference marks the line OF
development OF the different lands.
We often accuse ourselves as being
the most mercenary and materialistic
nation in the world but recent visitors
from foreign shores, known for their
keen analysis Of human nature, have
stated that we are the most idealistic
nation Of the world. And this subtle
trait in our national makeup can be
traced directly to the splendid heri-
tage derived from the Pilgrim Faith
ers- They differed widely from other
Massachusetts, colouists- Religion
was a vital force in their daily life
but IL was not a dtslntegrating force.
