"PILGRIMS" ALL YOUNG MEN
Though We Are in the Habit of Speak
ing of Them as Fathers" They
Were Youthful.

Among the contributions to the liter
allure of the tercentennial Of the land
ing Of the pilgrim Fathers" is
paper by Sir Arthur e. Shipley, mas
ter of Christ'S college, Cambridge, and
vice chancellor of the university. In
an editorial note Introducing his article
In the New York Times it is stated
that he is well known as a zoolOgist,
but why that qualities him TO write
learnedly about our Pilgrim ancestors
who never heard of Darwin or his
evolution theory, is unrevealed in the
note. We take it that the alleged
fathers" never claimed kinship with
the anthrOpoids and that they looked
much higher for information about
their origin than tn noted zoolOgist.
But, be that as it may, Sir Arthur does
inject a new thought, while not tell
ing us much else that is new about
those valiant and earnest souls who
embarked on the tiny Mayfower-tiny
In our eyes now, but not so consid-
cred by them-and buffeted the Allan
tic gales for two months in search Of
land hOspitable to them in the matter
OF religious freedom if not in climate.
When we speak of them as fathers"
we conjure up vision of grim-faced
men with long boards. venerable SEN
Tors bringing to the new world the wis
dom of their ripe years and long eX-
perience in both the joy and the value
of treadng the narrow path. but it is
an Illusion. Sir Arthur says there
was only one of them over thirty-two
years OF age. That one was Captain
Miles Standish, the valiant soldier, who
was only thirty-six. They were all
born about the year 1888, the time
when the wonderful Spanish armada
came to grief before the elements and
the ships of Sir Francis Drake, and
every last one of them was loyal
subject Of King James and proud of
that fact. They were young, vigorous,
enterpriSing Englishmen, genuine colo
nists, seeking religious freedom but not
political exile. 1t took men and women
Of such youthful vlgor to endure the
hardshlps and dangers incident to the
first few years of their colonial life.
Ever since that day it has been like
young MN and women who have pio-
neered the way across the country
from the Atlantic to the Pacific taking
with them the same spirit of attach
ment to the home land while build
ing homes in the new. The fathers"
have remained at home, while the
sons have Jared forth. spreading the
Mayhower spirit from ocean to ocean

All parents are being urged to have
their children's finger prints taken, so
that in case of disappearance from
home their whereabouts can be more
easily ascertained than with a meager
description. The police department of
any city would be glad, with this idea
in view, to make and file the finger
prints. Argentina is far in advance
in this matter. In that country the
fingerprints of every individual are
taken and filed away for possible flu
ture reference Every now and then
one hears of case where somebody
has forgotten all about himself and
does not know who ne is or where
he belongs This affection, fortunately
rare, is called 'aphasia.' If the finger
prints Of such an unlucky individual
were on file somewhere, the task of
identifying him might be greatly Sim
plified. Fingerprints taken in baby
hood do not alter their pattern through
life. Every day the War and Navy
departments are called upon to locate
young men who are missing from their
homes. With only the names (Which
may have been changed) and the vague
descriptions, il Is always difficult and
often impossible to respond TO the de
mand.

AirpIane an Essential Now.

In 80 minutes after the Birmingham
Office of Shelby county mine opera
tor had gotten in touch with the mine
rescue station at West End, experts
at the station had engaged an airplane
and with special life-saving apparatus
had been landed at the mine, 80 miles
distant.
This marks new field of useful
ness for the airplane. Physicians, life
saving experts and mine-rescue ap.

and many lives may be saved by this

When the airplane has evolved into
a medium for the saving of human

"If all goes well, 'Bo' McMillin, the

play. Then we will let Harvard do

pledged himself to return this fall
with the exception of 30" His
plans are still uncertain.
Coach Charley Moran, who built
up the wonder team, believes that
"Bo" will be back in moleskIns when
he blows the whistles for the first
practice in few more weeks.
Big Bill James, star tackle Of the
Colonies, put the sentiment correctly
when he said:

others to be helped.
Last Sunday afternoon two homes
were visited in which clothing was

have been met, MIR. Anglin stated
