School

The first public dancing school in
Logan opened at the pavilion Mon
day night and from the turnout the
first evening this new social feature
bids fair to establish itself permanent
ly in the city. Miss Mary Johnson
OF the Agricultural College has charge
o: the school and she taught the
large cas- many new steps as well as
gave them an idea Of the efficient
training which they can expect by
staying with the class. The training
will tend to eliminate the offensive
and Objectionable dancing which is
found in some OF the communities of
the valley by substituting therefore
the proper way to conduct oneself in
the dance hall. Miss Johnson 10 a

the class feel free and enter the
work with a determination to learn.
no. matter how awkward they may
think they ere. These dancing schools
will be conducted every Monday eve
ming. From ten to twelve the time is
taken up with a social dance. The
Amusement Company certainly struck
a happy thought by instituting these
dances.

her cooking pots, is taken TO his house.

SEES PROBLEM FOR ENGLAND
Trouble Over Ulster Has Been the
Cause of Much Comment Through
out France.

The conflicting reports and rumors
with regard to the attitude of the Off
GERS of the British army toward the
crisis in Ulster created a painful i'm
preston in France. French history
has more recent instances of similar
events than that of England. The mu-
TIMES in the south when the troops
refused to move against the rioting
wine growers led 20 general disloca-
ton of the French army with view
to avoiding the use of local con-
scripts against their own friends and
relatives; but perhaps a closer par
allel is to be found in the refusal of
few officers to obey their orders dur
ing the taking of the church invento-
ries under the church and state sep
aration law. Those officers were at
once arrested and court-mGrtialed.
To the general upon whose orders
the arrests were made General de Gal
lifet telegraphed: My heart is with
you; you have done your duty. Dura
lex. sed lex"
That officers who belong to nation
whose sense of discipline is the adj
miration of. the French should have
rendered their designations rather
than obey orders is regarded as sign
OF the extreme gravity of the problem
which the Petit Parisien fears may
lead to an Irish Vendee.

U1Orld:
IN THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS

seeing the case was hopeless, she re-
moved the cooking pots, her imple-
ments OF warfare, to the house of
another man where she-and her din
ners-proved irresistible.
Germany's Islands.
Germany's possessions in the Paci-
fic ocean are not large. They are
mere stepping stones along the oceans
highways, thrusting themselves above
the surface of the sea as the ancient
stepping stones in Columbia, Missouri,
or Pompeii, rise above the level of the
streets. Germany holds to them with
tenacity. however, and governs them
with the same autocratic police meth
DDS that great nation employs at
home. The German possessions con-
sist of German New Guinea (Kaiser
Wilhelm Land) Bismarck Archipelago,
Marshall Islands. a part of the Sa-
moan group. the Caroline Islands and
the Mariana Islands. The native pop
ulation is about 100000.
The contrast between the British
ton of their South Sea Islands is
marked. The British interfere as lit
tie as possible with the native. The
governor of Papua, British New Gui-
nea, issued a proclamation recently
condemning the undue sale of Euro
pean clothing to the native. A shell
necklace and a grass loin-cloth, the or
dinary wearing apparel, he evidently
thought were conducive to morality
and progress. The German insists up
on Berlin regularity and upon the ma
tive becoming Germanized as far as
possible and at once. The native po-
lice army of the Bismarck Archipela-
go all wear the German military cap,
though the climate forbids the coat
and trousers! "Self-government?" re-
marked a German official at Raboul,
how can we give self-government
to cannibals?

lands. Copra is the dried flesh of the

cocoanut and is used for soap. oil and
many commercial purposes. One Ger
man firm, with headquarters at Maron,
has 100000 cocoanut trees from which
copra is being obtained. The devel-
opment of the copra industry has
brought some commercial prosperity
TO the islands, but it has brought also
many of the demoralizing vices of
civilization. There are honorable
merchants engaged in the business,
but there are also many low-class trad
ers or beach combers," who dis
grace the name of white man. Slave
labor, through a system of enforced
servitude called euphemistically Ia
bor-recruiting system, has nearly ev-
erywhere been introduced as neces-
sary for the copra industry. 1t is not
strange to find that the native fears
the white man. Wherever possible
the white man, trader or planter. in
the South Seas forces him to labor,
when he had never worked before, and
carries him, practical slave, for this
labor to cocoanut plantations on dis
tant islands.
Good Work Of Missionaries.
The German missionary has done
and continues to do much good among
the natives. For making conditions
better in these lonely but beautiful is
lands much credit is due to the Ger
man missionaries-as in other lands
credit is due missionaries of other
nations. The missionary seldom re-
ceives the meed of nraise he merits

out in these outposts of German CIV
ilization. True, there Is divided and
discordant Christianity. to the shame
of Christianity here and at home. Com
petition still exists among Christian
sects when cooperation has succeed
ed competition in the business world.
True, there are unworthy mission
aries. But when all has been said
against them by traders with whose
cruel methods they interfere and by
tourists who travel only for pleasure
and by cynics who are deaf and blind
though not dumb, the worlds good is
being promoted, immeasurably pro-
NOTED, by these selfsacrifcing men
and women who are engaged in splen-
did adventure for God and man in
the islands of the sea.
Heroic Preachers Work.
Take one example out of many. On
the island of New Pommeru the Rev.
II. P. Wenzel, a German Methodist
missionary, is closing his eighth year
of unremitting service, without holi-
day or relief. He gave up comfort
able pulpit in Berlin to come to this
distant land. His wife, who came
with him, died of fever and lies buried
near the mission church he built His
children were sent home to live with
relatives in Germany. He kept on
with his work, facing loneliness, pri-
walton, disease, death. Fourteen mis-
sionaries on the island were killed by
hostile natives. His life was threat
ened and for a long time In imminent
danger He never faltered. He went
about alone among the natives, preach
ing, teaching, healing with simple med
icines the sick, leading into gentler
ways the natives, half savage and
half child" Cannibalism was stamped
out. slavery and polygamy disap-
peared.
The Native Converts.
Six thousand converts are the fruits
of eight years labor of this man and
his associates. Nor are these con-
verts merely rice Christians" as the
native Christians for revenue only are

tries, but men and women who lose

baton for three years, during which
time they must lead upright lives, So
Der. Industrious, before they can be
received into the church communion.
After baptism they are dropped from
the rolls or placed again on probation,
should they fall into their old and evil
practises. Even the most captious
critic in the islands has only words of
commendation for the work of Pastor
Wenzel and his colleagues. The re-
suits in the lives of the natives
brought under their influence are too
patent to be sneered away. And the
German Methodist missionaries in the
German islands of the South Seas are
types of the hundreds who labor for
humanity's betterment in the worlds
dark places. OF such stuff are gen.
uine heroes made.

similar provision is made to fit the
cases of the other officers of whose
promotion the bill takes cognizance.
In the past when Junior officers were
promoted to general rank there was a
good deal of criticism of the acts Un-
questionably the trainers of the pres

when they gave consideration to pro-

his high services to his country were
recognized in a manner as close as
possible to that in which the thanks
of congress are given to a living man.
