Plymouth, Mass. Aug. Another Mayf1ower came to Plymouth today, this one the presidential yacht bring ing President Harding and an official party to join in formal observance of the tercentenary of the landing of the Pilgrims.

The banks of the canal and the bridges spanning it were lined with people, who cheered the presidential yacht as 1t passed.
