Pioneers Were Our Aristocracy

| Human pride b 4 peculiar, pushing thing: and never
is It more peculiar and puzsing than when It revolves
about the matter Of ones ancestry.
A current lawsuit In New York illustrates the matter
perfectly.
A sculptor was engaged to create 4 statue which the
descendants Of New Amsterdam's earliest Dutch colon
lists wanted to put up In . New York park. He retired
to his studio and came o.. after . time, with . model Of
a group figure; a group showing 4 man. 4 woman and .
child. apparently surveying the Wild new country in which
they had just landed.
His patrons promptly rejected this group. And whyY
Because the sculptor had made peasants Of these i'm
migrants OF long ago. They wore the clothes Of peas
ants. and on their faces was . sort OF dumb wonder, IN
awed surprise mixed with Z dogged determination-th the
expression, In short. that ar uneducated peasant Of the
18th century might be expected to have after crossing the
Atlantic ocean and landing In the untamed new world.
This ~displeased the descendants. They explained. quite
~haughtily. that the original Dutch colonists we're not
peasants At all, but wel-born folk Of means and culture.
So the sculptor made another model. putting fancy
clothes and arstocratic expressions on his figures; but
his patrons would have none Of him. SO, now. he Is
suing to collect his fee.
The whole business Is hardly worth thinking twice
about. except that it illustrates 50 aptly that peculiar
pride In ancestry which crops out every SO often for the
ed;fication of humber folk.
Probably 1t Is very nice to be able to trace ones lineage
back to the scented elegants of a former generation. Yet
the real aristocrats In the settlement Of America were
not the titled and wealthy Europeans who came over to
build great manor houses and cultivate broad acres with
indentured help. The country would have gone forward
Just about as well II those people had stayed at home.
What really developed the country was the great flood
tide of ordinary, uneducated folk who came blindly. des-
perately hoping that somehow, In this perlous new
world, they could find q way to make life . little bit
easier, Z little bit more pleasant. than in Europe.
These were the people who filled the seaccast and
moved slowly inland, past the Alleghenies, along the
wilderness road to Kentucky, past old Fort Pitt to the
Ohio country. They worked their lives out in stumpy
clearinss miles from civilization, and they died under the
knives Of lurking Indians: and they filled the continent,
and they chung to their dream, so that it is with us yet.
Many millions Of these humble. untaught folk came to
the making Of America; and, II you please. they are the
real aristocrats. They dared the most. they suffered the
most. they accomplished the most. The modern pride
that prefers to trace ancestry back to the colonial blue
bloods Is a strange thing.

Editorial Comment
Story Of Dog Devotion
tSan Francisco Chronicle)

V00u 8UC V1IIONuC1ST
Authentic sources seem to verify the story that Z
hound caught in q trap in New Hampshire Was fed for
eight days by an Airedale that carried food to the
prisoner. But II the story had only . flinsy basis we
should still like to believe 1t.
We hope that no hard-boiled pursuer Of nature fakes
will take Il into his head to run this story to earth. The
world would be 50 much the poorer II the story should
be proved untrue. Whether or not 1t actually happened
Is not so important. It Is good allegory at any rate. It
Is one Of those things which should be true II It isn't,
and which would be true II dogs reasoning powers
were Is reliable as his affections.
We choose not to 90 any further into the subject.
