OPA Says Tailor Made
 For Alaska

A simplification of the regula- tion governing the price of goods brought into Alaska are incorpo- rated in Revised Maximum Price Regulation 194, effective Febru- ary 28, according to announce ment made by the Alaska Office of Price Administration.
 In effect, MPR 194, tailor made regulation for Alsaka, froze the amount of the sellers dollar markup above direct cost of goods sold in the month preceding Pearl Harbor. Revised MPR 194 re- places MPR 194 without chang ing it's basic pricing or other pro- visions.
 The revision gives sellers the choice of adding either nine tenths of their base period per- centage markup or their base pe- riod dollar-and-cent markup to current landed cost. An addition al feature is that sellers may now calculate their ceiling price for goods not handled before the war by adding to their cost nine tenths of the base period per- centage markup for ''most com parable" commodities. A third change is one that reduces mate rially the filing requirements for the merchants.
 Although the revised regula- ,lon takes the place of MPR 194, seller does not have to refigure lis ceiling prices if they were established under the 'ld regulation. If he chooses, he nay redetermine his prices un- Ter the percentage markup for hula, but if his resulting ceiling 'rice on any commodity differs rom the price previously filed, he seller must then file a new ist showing the new ceiling price or such commodities.

The hero and narrator is a little
boy, known to his family as Bib.
Bib is the son of a Scotch Presby-

vaudeville house, and once had a
canary with whom he played
Beethoven duets. He was a realist
and philosopher, too. Mama, who
spoke French with a Glasgow &C
cent" had a more serious nature.
But while she sometimes objected
to the more cratic goings-on in
the family, she accepted them with
sweet reasonableness.
Bib had a unique set of uncles:
Uncle Louis who was deathly afraid
of butterflies because he had once
stuck pins in them in his youth
and was convinced they were out
for revenge; Uncle Desmonde, own
er OF Ottawa's largest collection of
ladies carriers; and Uncle Felix.
whose main claim TO glory was a
large and unique assortment of use

Also, the little boy was blessed
with a most romantic grandfather.

Mass, and gaZed at historic Plymouth
Rock, are due for a shock, because
historian who has delved deeply into
the lore of our Pilgrim Fathers de-
clares the Pilgrims probably never
saw the rock and most certainly
didn't land upon it.
What is more, Plymouth wasn't
the spot where the Pilgrims first set
foot on American soil. The May.
flower, this historian insists, after
that momentouS ocean crossing,
anchored in what is now Province
town harbor, and the first party of
10 men disembarked on a slender
hook of land between Cape Cod Bay
and the ocean.
1t was some time later when the
Pilgrims actually settled in Plymouth,
where they landed on a sandy beach
with no big rock in sight.
That's what George F. Wilson,
the historian, says in his recent book,
Saints and Strangers.
Adding TO all this bewilderment
he has melted, Wilson writes that
all our conceptions of the Pilgrims,
their customs and charaeters-usua
confused with those of the Puritans
are based on a myth created in the
last century by imaginative people,
Longfellow apparently having been
the chief culprit among them.
A careful student of New Eng
land history, Wilson is not attempt
ing TO debunk history in the fashion
of some writer's in the 'twenties He
is simply trying to show the true
picture of the Pilgrims, human and
heroic as they were.
Among other things, Williston eX-
plodes the myth-printed in primary
books for years and accepted as true
by many generations-tha the Pill
Grims were glum, dour, bloodless
and ascetic group of people who had
settled in the new world TO escape
religious prosecutions in England.
To the contrary, states Wilson,
they were very much alive, strong
and fun-loving group of men and
women, much different from the
strait-laced Puritans who landed later
north of them. The Pilgrims sailed

For the Pilgrims were the product
of EliZabethan times, the gay and

All in all, however, the Pilgrims
were a Jolly crowd of regular people
according to Willison.
But they never ate turkeys, never
lived in log cabins and never called
themselves Pilgrims. The name was
given them in 1893 by the Rev. Chand
Ter Robbins.
