Jointly an island comprising
roughly about $4,000 square
B II miles, and having total pop
s @@ ulation Of nearly 2,OOO,OOO.
Haiti has nearly the population OF
Santo Domingo but only little more
than half its area.
For 100 years Haiti and for hall
that period Santo Domingo have been
a cause of continual anxiety to the
United States. Since gaining their
independence both have been IN a
state of constant upheaval and blood
shed as a result Of practically I'M
broken succession Of revolutions. In
the last 20 years United States naval
vessels have been in almost constant
attendance about the island, and ma
rines have several times been landed
for the protection Of foreign life and
property. 1t is no eXaggeration to
say that Haiti and Santo Domingo
have cost the United States more
money in the last 30 years than would
have been spent had this government
assumed responsibility for and control
over the island.
The story of Haiti is story of mis-
cry. The characters are childish ne
groes, who play at dignity, spill blood
and do no work. In natural advan-
tages, Haiti is a land of fertile opu-
lence, but what is human there is de-
based and wretched.
A race Of simple children pretend
there at being kings and emperors and
presidents. All to themselves, they
possess a part of a wonderful island,
where once they were slaves. They
had the entire island at first, but their
quarreling gashed an ugly frontier
across, marking off Santo Domingo,
and now the sets Of warning factions
are multiplied

hills, where these children play at gov

HERE'S A
Chew THAT
IS A Chew
"American Navy" is Rich in
Quality and Fruity
in Flavor
fastest TOBACCO MADE

Do you chesU tobaccof If YOU don't
you're missing a lot of wholesome en-
joynent and healthful satisfaction. IL
you do, what form Of tobacco do YOU
use? A Plug is the only chew that per-
fectly retains all the natural Juices of
the leaf.
American Navy is high-grade
scrap chew in plug form. It's made
of the same type of leaf as scrap"
but the leaves used are aohoie instead
of cuttings"
And being pressed close, the sweet,
mellow, fruity flavor of the leaf runs
evenly through every last juicy chew
of the American Navy plug.
American Navy represents the high
est form of plug tobacco production
the very best chew that can be made
from rich, ripe tobacco leaf-the last
word in tobacco satisfaction.
American Navy is so carefully and
painstakingly made that not one drop
of the leafs rich, natural juice escapes
from the plug.
American Navy is the moneys worth
chew-and morel In Sc and 10c cuts.

New Haven institution has massed a
total OF 12l points over forty-year
stretch. Harvard points total Si3, Penn
sylvania's S35. and Cornell. 3sl. Yale's
greater total of points is due to the fact
that on several occasions the Eli crowd
sent a team to the meet that grabbed
off nearly all the points in sight.

few years is due very largely to the
wonderful coaching the athletes have re-

have adopted it.
Moakley wants his men to gain in

the chances of the team as
a whole. But Moakley insists that his
men should sacrifice individual glory for
the greater glory of a Cornell victory
Moakley makes his men work for points
not for records And because the ath-
letes have obeyed the Moakley mandate
they have triumphed six times in eleven
years over an average field OF twenty
