ANCIENT SAMOAN MAN OF WAR BUILT IN 1870


not come In for much consideration
where the interests OF the whites are
az stake. Sull II can be said to the
credit Of the United States. that its Of
ficers controlling our part Of the group
have taken very good care 10 protect
the rights of the natives 10 the land
and 20 protect them from the evils Of
drunkenness, as n Is unlawful 10 sell
liquor on the islands
But 1t Is a harder matter 10 protect
them .rom gambling and the immoral
fly Of the white man. though the pres
ant cOmmandant and one or two Of his
predecessors have made a brave effort
in that direction. The Samoans are
not am immoral people naturally. but
the desire for the advantages OF the
white mans thrift and greater earning
capacity Is the cause of the downfall of
many OF this gentle hammered. tender
hearted people. whose pride is IN their
kindness 20 strangers. In an the little
wars between the white men and the
SamOans the natives have steadfastly
maintained that they were the people
Of God and that he would protect
them. and they have been singularly
fortunate IN the outcome o. all their
troubles
JAPANESE.
Although FAR removed from other ISL

some authorities who have Classed the

10 say just what the true Samoan char
aCteristics are. except by comparison
with the people who have influenced
their characters IN recent times,
The Samoans. while being members
of the Polynesian family, have many
points that mark them as being quite
distinct from the rest Of the ISLANDERS
around them. Their language II dis
tinctly one Of praise. Astounding in soft
sounds aud almost entirely devoid OF
harsh OF hard sounds. Like all the
Polynesian languages, there are n'
closed Syllabes that have consondni
eudings every syllable and every word
ends with vowel. making &c a very
easy language 90 speak aud giving mo
impression 10 the new student that a
sentence is AN one word There are
mo- such sounds On the samoan augaug,
as d. a, e. h. etc. making IN
Language very soft uu. muSi-
cal Like the people OF Japan
the Samoans have practically three DIS
tinct languages which every man must
know and use an the time. One oi
these dialects is used when speaking go
the highest chiefs. one 'n speaking Coz
men of ordinary authority ana to
strangers. and The other 200 speaking oI
oneself and 20 common people that Is
% men Of 40 authority and 90 member,
Of the family and near friends Hho are
on very intimate terms To make any
exceptions 10 the rules Of using these
dialects would be the grossest insult 90
the person 70 whom you were speaking.
SAMOAN FOOD
The food Of the Samoans is Boo the
main the same as that nf The other
Polyuesiau peoples. Exceptions are that
they do not eat Tho poi of tle Hawaii
ans. nor the dried FISH NJ the Tahit.aus
and a few other special dishes ~ the
other related peoples. Bananas pine

Piles and similar fruits bound. The
Samoans make poi from ripe bananas.
They store food f0r time. of famine
by taking the surplus hredd-fruIt dur
ing times OF plenty and hurying % n
pits lined with banana leaves. This is
left iu the ground an indefinite period

Women in the Professions,

The extent to which the feminine mind
has shown Itself equal to the arduous
demands of professional life speaks we'll
for its quality. In 1900 there were In the
United States 43l,l74 women In the pro-
fessons, Most Of these. or 391 ,453, were
employed as teachers. musicians and art
lists. But there were, besides. 400 women
electricians, l,042 architects, designers
and draughtmen, 1910 lawyers 3,405-
cergymcn. 21O3 journalists, 1880 ply
sIclans and surgeons and sos dentists.
Those engaged In literature and sclcn-
tinc pursuits numbered $3.50, For COM
pnrisons ms illustrating the extraordinary
professional advance made by women in
twenty years It is only necessary to
recall that tho census OF 1880 discovered
but ~ women architects and designers
lG5 clergymen, 81 dentists. no electricians
| or civil engineers. 2SS journalists and rs
| lawyers. 1t Is n story Of feminine
achievement to which man, as he secs
the bars go down, will not begrudge an
admiring tribute.-New York World

Governor Glenn's Wisdom.

Our Raleigh correspondent says that
Governor Glenn. Of North Carolina, was
recently appealed to BY union men at
High Point, to advise them in the matter
OF adjusting labor troubles between their
organization and the manufacturing es-
i Establishments OF the town. Governor
Glenn replied that he was not sufficiently
familiar with the differences between the
parties to the fight to give advice to either
side. But the Givernor has denied with,
Indignation the nsInuation made Ivy some
of the newspapers that he in any way
avoided expressing himself lie says
that he answered the letter In the regular
course of his correspondence but was
not in position to give counsel
Governor Glenn acted as he should have
acted It is not the part of a Governor
OF State to settle differences Of this
character, or to Interfere In any way
when there is strike, 1t is his part to
see that the laws are obeyed. that prop
crty is protected, that no mans rights
are violated, that all men who desire to
work shall be permitted to do so. But
the Governor IS not called upon to act
as arbiter between the strikers and their
employees. Whenever he does so, he
transcceds his functions OF Office and
walks in devious and dangerous paths.
President Roosevelt felt that he was
called upon few years back to settle
the strike in the anthracite coal regions.
Eut that was a great emergency and the
President did not mean to establish
rule. 1T is stated at tho White House"
says the washington Post, that Prcsl-
dent Roosevelt has made reply to. the
telegram received from the soft coal
operators, asking him to appoint com
mission to settle the miners strike. and
while tho text will not be made public
there Is authority for the statement that
the President has decided not to interfere
as long rs conditions remain as they
now are"
The President has had his lesson.
