In the New York Times It Is stated
that he Is well known us a zoologist,
but why that tjuulllleM hint to write
learnedly about our Pilgrim ancestors,
who never heard of Durwln or his
evolution theory, Is unrevealvd In the
Hole. We take It that the alleged
"fathers'' never claimed kinship with
the anthropoids and that they looked
much lituher for Information about
their origin Ihttn to a noted zoologist.

When we speak of them us "fathers"
we conjure up a vision of grlm-fiieed
men with lonu' beards, venerable sen-
iors bringing to the new world the wis-
dom of their ripe years and long ex-
perience in both the Joy and the value
of treading lite narrow path, but it Is
an illusion. Sir Arthur says there
was only one of them over thirty-two
years of ukc. That one was Captain
Miles Standlsh, the valiant soldier, who
was only thirty-six. They were uli
born about the yeur lfi88, the time
when the wonderful Spanish urnuula
came to Krlef before the elements ami
the ships of Sir Francis Drake, and
every last one of them was u loyal
subject of King James and proud of
that fact. They were young, vigorous,
enterprising Englishmen, genuine colo-
I nlsts, seeking religious freedom but not
political exile. It took men and women
of such youthful vigor to endure the
hardships and dangers Incident to the
first few years of their colonial life.
Kver since that day It Was been like
young men and women who have pio-
neered the way across the country

with them the same spirit of attach-
