The Savannah morning news., 1902-11-30

OF the island domains which Uncle
Sam has taken under his care. the
largest is the group of islands known
as the Philippines. which you Will find
on the map lying in the Pacific ocean
southeast of China. Everybody has
heard OF the Philippines now; but be-
fore Admiral Dewey sailed into Ma
Mia Bay at the beginning of the Span
ish war. the people of the United
States knew hardly anything of this
vast archipelago.
The United States is starting on a
census of the Philippines now. 1t is
estimated that there are about $780,
600 people there. If the estimate is cor
rect, Uncle Sam took over with the
islands the task of providing for the
education of something like 100000
of children, many of whom had never
thought of such a thing as going to
school.
Some of the children are little. saw
age negritos living away up in the
mountain forests. They have black
skins and their hair is kinky as that
of an African. They are a small race,
many of them almost dwarfish. and
they file their teeth to a sharp point
They live mostly by hunting and fish

schools in many places before the
Americans came. Except in Manila.
however, the schools did not amount to
much. The most progressive people
seem to be the Tagal0gs on the Isl
and of Luzon and. considering the poor
opportunities they had it is surprising
how many Tagalog boys and girls
learned (" read and write.
The children of LUXOR. are thirsty
for knowledge and. even in Spanish
times, many of them used to go to
Manila TO compete their education,
while those who had wealthy parents
were sent to Europe for a college
course.
Uncle Sam has been building and
buying school houses all over the
islands and now has $50, 900
children attending school every
day, which is probably three
times as many as ever went to
school before in the history of the ISL
ands.In a few years he hopes to have
a million pupils enrolled in his Philip
pine schools.
So eager are the children of the
Philippines to learn that in Manila and
some other large towns. night schools
have been established for the larger
children who have TO work during the
day.
Besides the 10000 children Uncle
Sam has 10000 grown-ups attending

Two summers ago I took UP my
residence in one of the thickest tracts
of woodland on the Palisades. 1 was so
pleased with the advantages it pre-
sentcd for the study of animal life that,
as autumn came on, still stayed there.
and when winter. in it's turn, succeed
ed, l decided to remain. Indeed. I
live there now, happy in having ac-
quired many new ideas in regard to the
ways of animals in winter.
Everyone knows how the gray SPUR
rel in summertime makes for himself
a nest of twigs or leaves in the
branches of trees and retires to it in
his leisure to sleep or gnaw at the nuts
that he has gathered in the vicinity.
During the summer 1 saw near my
house many such nests and 1 caught
glimpses of their owners capering
along the branches, or peeping at me
cautiously, showing only noses and
eyes over some thick limb or from be-
hind some excrescence on the tree
trunk.
When the nights began to get cool,
and long before the frost set in, the
gray squirrels changed their summer
quarters and made for themselves
nests in holes high up in the larger
trees. l knew many of these retreats,
for oftentimes I would see the SOUR
rels near them, and they would run
into these very holes if l unduly alarm
ed them.
One day in October. while sitting
very still for a long time on a rock
under some thick bushes, 1 saw a gray
squirrel very busy on the trunk of a

cup and licked up a few drops of tea
and undissolved sugar that remained
at the bottom.
In every room in my house met
those beautiful wood mice, but as they
have none of the Objectionable char
acteristics of the common and repul-
sive house mouse, but, on the con-
trary, are pretty in coloring and tame
and gentle, i liked to have them as
acknowledges, and 1 hope they will
invade my house this winter.
During the first summer I spent IN
the woods 1 caught seventeen flying
squirrels. 1 gave away all except six,
which 1 kept in a cage in my snake
room. Little did l dream at the time
that I was securing the woods for
these squirrels that in the fall l would
have a colony of them in a little wood
en- pavilion at the back of my house.
In a cavity in the roof of this pavilion
two or more of them made a nest. I
would often hear them while reading
in the pavilion, and would sometimes
see them in the evening and on moon
lit nights, for they are nocturnal in
their habits. Frequently 1 would put
nuts out for them, which they always
took away. thought that they would
remain all the winter, but, like the red
and the gray squirrels, they had a
third and warmer retreat.
1t happened that for my Gagged fly
ing squirrels 1 had a large basket of
hickory nuts in a little room off the
dining room. After it grew cold /
seldom went into this room, but one
day on entering it l was surprised to
find that rats were carrying away my
hickory nuts. A trap caught all the
rats, but the hickory nuts continued

years ago, when sat out there to get
ers I will tell them of what 1 have
observed in those forty years. I have
one case in mind. A young preacher
in the far West declared that he would
have to give up his charge and go
East. There was a girl he liked very
much. He wanted to marry her.
am asked il. there were not plenty of
beautiful and good women where he
had his charge. This one out East was
Campbellite. He went and married
her. He thought he could find no other
who could take care of him as we'll as
this one. He would have been more
fortunate, l think, II she had been
Presbyterian, for then she would have
felt that she was elected to be the
minister's wife.
Il believe he has laid the founda-
lions for untold trouble and vexation.
Again l know of cases where the
leaders in worldliness are the daugh-
tiers of preachers. They lead the euch-
re parties, the wine parties.
There is where the preacher has a
bitter fight on his hands, and he can
not hope to make it a good fight IL he
has at home what he should not have

Having nothing, the preacher can
give untold riches to others. He can
make many rich by using the grace

the United States, there are 1000 ma
tive teachers, teaching the children in
the primary departments, so you see
Uncle Sam has not made a bad start
in educating the children he has
gathered under his flag.
The Filipino child is a nervous lit
tie youth and does not like long
school hours; but he is remarkably
bright, as a rule, and learns quickly.
The old Spanish way of Furnishing
child who did not know his lesson was
to make him kneel on the floor in a
corner with his book until he learned
II. In some OF the schools this is still
found to be an effectual way of en-
forcing study. but as a rule Ameri-
can methods have been introduced en-
tirely.
The favorite delicacy of the Filipino
child is the "bekinka," pancake made
of fermented corn and rice -four
mixed and baked in a pan over live
Goals The cake is then covered with
shredded cocoanut. ard Filipino child
will eat all the "bebinkas" ne can get.
In Manila the children have candy
and other sweets, but through the rest
of Luzon the "bebinka' is the JOY of
the children.
Though Filipino children are small,
they are wiry and strong for their
size and are fond of wrestling. In this
sport their quickness makes them
match for American children of larger
size.
One game in which they indulge is
called the ''moro-moro." 1t is a fenc-
ing game. Two boys will stand up to
each other, each having in his right
hand a long stick to represent a bolo
"a sort of long knife or thick sword
and in his left a short stick to repre-
sent dagger. They fence with each
other according to set of rules which
govern the game. and the one who
touches his opponent oftenest wins
the game. Sometimes this game will
be kept up for an hour without either
boy showing signs of giving out,
though, as rule, the Filipino child is
not fond of much exertion. In fact
the climate is such that nobody wants
to exert himself any more than neces-
sary, for, like all the other of Uncle
Sans newly acquired possessions, the

The Children of Other Lands Have
Queer Dishes and Enjoy Them

The Children of other Lands Have
Queer Dishes and Enjoy Them.
In some countries the people eat
ants. In Sweden they mix them with
rye and flavor the stew with brandy.
They make dish of pressed ants and
soften it with milk until it looks like
our chocolate.
In Africa the children roast large
white ants and eat them by the hand
full like popcorn. Travellers who have
eaten them say that they taste like all
mond paste.
Many people cook and eat the To-
Gust. They boil them in salty water,
roast them in oil or fry them in but
ter. Sometimes they dry and grind the
locusts and make the powder into
bread by adding a little water.
The Mexicans are fond of roasted
spiders. They also dry the eggs of
a certain water fly. grind them into
flour and sell it by the sack. This
flour is sweet and much used for
cakes.
These are only few of the many
queer things eaten by the boys and
girls of other lands. The children of
our own country often eat roasted
grasshoppers and say that they taste
like parched horse corn, or maize.

He apologized profusely and anx-

him and asked him where he was.

old gentleman. 'You are a lucky dog

near the ceiling, where the rats could
not possibly climb. 1 thought that
they were safe on the shelf, but when
l went to the basket some time later 1
found it nearly empty. Where the
nuts had gone l could not tell.
Now, there was in that room
lounge, upholstered in haircloth, with
spring bottom. One day it was nee
essary to move this lounge. l lifted
one end and gave it a vigorous pull.
The rattle of some loose objects rolling
about inside of it surprised me, so 1
gave the lounge a good shake, where
upon two flying squirrels jumped out
and ran into hole under the stairs.

Philippines lie within the tropics and
there is perpetual summer there
If you are fond of fruits and flowers
you would, no doubt, like to go to
school in the Philippines. for outside
of some schoolhouses are heliotropes
grown into great bushes six feet high,
and geraniums run riot like weeds.
There are fields of sugar-cane, groves
of banana and cocoanut trees, fields
of pineapples and trees from which
hang fruits, many of which you prob
ably never have seen, such as the
lomboy and loquot. which are like fine
large plums; the mangosteen, which
looks like baked potato, but has a
white delicious pulp Within and the
lanZon which tastes like a wild straw
berry.

When the King Turkey OF Thanks
giving Country had thrown Fido gent
ly but firmly over the blue wall, he fell
into the queerest land that he had yet
visited. As soon as he touched 1t, he
lost his hat. BY the time he had put
II back on his head. he lost his cane.
This annoyed him so exceedingly and
pleasingly that he tried TO bark in an
ger but he found 10 bis amazement
and agony that he had lost his bark.
Although he looked about for IL care
fully he could not find II anywhere.
However he had little time 70 study
the matter for he was soon kept busy
lodging things that fell on him. APP

dom heard spoken from one
end of the islands to the other. but
now you hear English spoken every
where. The children learn to speak
the language with astonishing ease.
Gov. Taft says that in a few years
English will be the prevailing language
of the Philippines.
At first the teachers from the Unit
ed States found the same trouble that
was found in Porto Rico.
The children insisted on studying
their lessons 'out loud" as they had
been accustomed to do under the old
Spanish system.
Besides the teachers sent out from
