LANDING OF PILGRIMS.

The setting of December 2I by President Wilson to be celebrated as the tercentenary of the landing of the Pilgrim fathers at Plymouth in l620. seems especially significant. The President in his procla nation re- marks that the day should be ob- served not only in Plymouth. but throughout the country because the influences which the ideals and prin- ciples of the Pilgrim with respect to civil liberty and human rights have had upon the formation and growth Of our institutions and upon our de- vclopment and progress as a nation merits more than a local expression Of our obligation and makes fitting nationwide observance of the day" or course the fact that this procla- nation comes at time when the League of Nations Is so much under discussion. is a mere coincidence. But 1t Is coincidence that gives rise to deep thought.
 Many will say that the Pilgrim fathers would have spurned an offer to join with others throughout the world in n great league for any pur- pose at all. They had risked every thing they had: they had lost prop crty. faced death, that a free land might be made to flourish on the earth. They were ready to fight for it and its principles. There was no thought in their minds of anything but that great aim. They did light for lt: their descendants have fought for it. It has come beyond the most inspired dream of the Fathers.
 Others will say that those Fathers. had they been immortal. were they living today would be eager to join with others in giving to them peace.
 But be 1t remembered they were lighting not for peace: they fought for freedom and liberty. How far would they have gone in giving their help. grown all-powerful. to nations where liberty and democracy did not prevail? And be 1t remembered that they were fighting idealists.

PONZI AND EUROPE.

The French Nation has a set of International Postal Union which will convene at Madrid October 1. 1920.
 About a month ago. before Ponzi
 became famous. the French Commis- sion adopted recommendations that a postal surtax be imposed when nec- essary to meet the loss in exchanges. IL Is possible that the financial men of France have noted a play on for eign exchange through the medium of the innocent postage stamp, and have agreed upon this plan to out wit this particular brand of exchange brokers.
 Ponzi. the exchange wizard. has been attracting great amount of attention from fnanciers all over the United State and his notoriety does not stop at this point. He is the topic of discussion with get-rich- quick men. romance lovers and dreamers Of all kinds Is he att tracting the same amount of atten- ton in Europe? If the International Postal Union statesmen point to him as an example of taking advantages of the exchanges through the post age stamp. the people of the United States can rest assured that they have n man among them who cor responds to any genius that Europe has turned out. Therefore it remains for the International Postal Union to check budding genius. or ignore our super wallingford which 1t is not liable to do where money is involved.
