Pilgrims (New Plymouth Colony)

Excerpt from Our Pilgrim Forefathers: Thanksgiving Studies You often hear people talking of the President of our country. Doubtless most of you know him by name. Some of you may have seen him. You also know that once in every four years we have an election day, when papa votes for the man whom he thinks best for President. Then the one who gets the most votes becomes our President for four years. If this man makes a good President, he is some times chosen again for another four years, or term, as we call it. But if he has not pleased the people, they choose some one else, anybody else, next election day. We never know who will be our next President until he is elected. One term he is a man from one part of the country; the next term he may be one from a far distant part. In our country we think that this way is best.
