OUR COUNTRY
DATE OF INDEPENDENCE
DEMANDS FITTING
CELEBRATION.

We are told by historians that Bjorne
Hergulfson, an adventurous Icelander,
was the first to see this continent.
This was in the year 9s8 and the land
he saw was believed to be Nantucket,
Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.
Lief Erickson. in the year 1000,
In Bjorne's ship, set sail for Green
land. landed in Newfoundland and
later in Nova Scotia and still later on
the shores of Massachusetts, bay. The
claim is made that he was the first
paleface to set foot on the American
continent.
Descendants of Columbus strenu-
ously deprecated the Importance Of
the discoveries of Eric the Red" but
the Americanist society declares that
Columbus himself knew of the voy-
ages and settlements Of the Norsemen,
having Informed himself thereof when
he visited Iceland in 1477.
Be that as 1t may, Columbus has
the advantage Of tradition, Of famil-
tarity. Of the facility with which an
at least apparent connection is estab-
lished between the man and what
came after him.
On June "a. 1497. John Cabot, an
Englishman, saw the dismal cliffs Of
Labrador. That was IA months be-
fore Columbus, on his third voyage
South America.
Amalric was the name which COM
pacted the old ideal of herolsm and
leadership. 1t meant "the man who
ruled because he labored for ALL" This
name the Norman French shortened
TO Amaury. In Italy the name suf-
fered euphonic changes and 1t became
Amelrlco, but the juxtaposition of the
two consonants "l' and "r" presented
a difficulty In pronunciation and the
''Ir" was changed to err" and finally to
one "r." Down the centuries the name
remained, and from Amerrico vespuci
came the name Of the new world.
The Mayfower cast anchor In the
waters of Cape Cod on November 81,
1921. The Pilgrims finally decided on
Plymouth as the spot for settlement.
The first settlement had been estab-
tished, however. at jamestown since
1907. Its early record was one Of con-
tinuous misfortune-from an op-
pressive government to famine and In
dim massacre. The first legislative
assembly convened July 30. 1719.
On July 4. 1776, the Declaration Of
Independence was agreed to and Mat
thew Thornton affixed his signature to
the engrossed copy. On January 1S,
1777, an authentic copy with the
names of the members of congress was
ordered and copy was sent to each
of the United States to be placed on
record"
This great state paper, "unequaled
in eloquence and dignity" was the
product, largely, Of Thomas Jefferson
and Benjamin Franklin, and II is said
Thomas Paine, Franklin's friend, wrote

BERANGER'S HEART TOO KIND
Great French Poet Continually Preyed
On by a Host Of Inerates Who
PIucked Him.

Interesting anecdotes are told OF the
great French poet. Beranger. who died
IN 1857.
The poet was as poor as he was
generous. All he had he gave away.
and when there was nothing left he
sent tho beggnrs who haunted his
house to call on his numerous friends.
One Of the characteristics OF this
unfortunate benefactor who was al
ways surrounded by n host Of ingrates,
was his tolerant spirit. Since there
was no ante-chamber In his modest
home, the beggars who knew the house
stayed outside on the staircase; 1t was
impossible to see him without finding
a half-dozcn of them on the stairs.
There they used to walt like ravens
for tho small change, old clothes, and
sometimes new clothes, that Lisette
was the first to distribute to them.
When friends reconstructed with Be
ranger for giving AWAY things he need
ed to people whom he did not know,
Lisette would answer:

Ever since that time 1t has silently

VALLEY FORGE
LITTLE VILLAGE BEARS A
NAME THAT Is I'M
MORTAL.

While Washington's troops starved
or died Of fever or gangrene at Val
ley Forge the enemies Of his own
household were not ashamed to play
politics for the downfall of their COM
mander even at the risk of losing their
common cause. Lafayette, hot with
Indignation. writing to his well-loved
chief December 80, 1777, said, with
the restraint that good taste put upon
a well-bred alien pen:
II see plainly that America can de-
fend herself If proper measures are
taken; but 1 begin to fear that she
may be lost by herself and her own
sons"
And Washington, with his never
falling courage and with a cheerful
ness he could not have felt, replied:
1--WE must not, in so great a contest,
expect nothing but sunshine. have
no doubt that everything happens for
the best, that we shall triumph over
our misfortunes, and in the end be
happy; and then. my dear marquis,
IL you will give me your company in
Virginia, we will laugh at our past
difficulties and the folly Of others"
So wrote the man who, In dead of
winter, commanded an army without
a quartermaster general. for that
creature of congress had ceased to
function the previous summer. Con-
gress, calmly aware of Washington's
inevitable plight, appointed no success
sor till March of the following year,
when. no thanks to the politicians, the
exertions Of Nathaniel Greene, Robert
Morris and "Mad Anthony" Wayne

rather go into battle than witness the
sufferings of the men in his camp
supplied cattle and clothing and
brought the starving command back
to life.
Sir George Otto Trevelynn, nephew
and biographer Of Lord Macaulay, I'm

IGNORANCE IS
 CURSE OF ASSAM

On the upper Brahmaputra, among the fierce hill tribes of India's most primitive province, Assam, where the percentage of literacy is almost neglt- gible, where siXty-seven tongues are spoken by a population less than that of greater New York, Northern Bap- tists are preparing to spend ST., O00,00o for equipment and mainten- ance of schools, missions and hos pitals during the next five years.
 Ignorance is almost a prevailing evil in Assam, it seems. Only in re- cent years have the hill tribes of the country enjoyed a written language and this was given them by the nis- sionaries. There are still many tribes who have not yet acquired a method of graphically expressing their thoughts. In consequence the mis- sionary must reduce the language to writing, translate his literature and the Bible, teach the people to read their own language and establish 9 system of education that will develop trained leaders and an intelligent constituency.
 One of the greatest tasks with which educators are confronted in Assam is ilIiteracy, especially among the women, only 12,00O of the 4,00o,- 900 women in the country are able to read, those that have a written Ian SIIaSe.
