The term links" In connection with
golf Is Of Scottish origin. 1t originally
was used to designate stretch of land
covered with short grass and stubble
which hes between the high point Of
the coast and the wnter in parts OF the
Scottish seabonrd. The first golf cours-
es were laid out along these stretches,
hence the name. When the sport

as this, which may be asked:
Does the United States want the
British West Indies?
Is Great Britain willing to sell them
to the United States?
Can the two nations agree on a
price?
Answers to these questions will have
to be guesswork largely. It was first
rumored in diplomatic circles In Wash
ington in 1917 that the transfer was
being considered. Nothing official,
however, has ever been made public.
Secretary Of State Lansing says he
knows nothing about 1t.
Giving color to the possibility OF the
transfer are two facts: One Is that
the United States Is apparently in the
market for West Indian islands, as
shown by the purchase In 1917 of the
Virgin islands from Denmark for $25.-
100000. In this connection it is to be
kept In mind that the Panama canal
Is located In this part of the world,
which fact may have something to do
with Uncle Sans apparent desire to
invest In Islands off It's Atlantic ap-
prpach. The other fact is that Great
Britain owes the United States about
four billions, has a national debt now
in excess Of $25.0OO,0OO 900 and is APP
parently finding her West Indian is
lands more of a liability than an asset.
The British West Indies comprise
the greater number of the string of
pearl-like Islands that Is flung like n
necklace from Florida to South Amer
lea, around that corner Of the ocean
known as the Caribbean. All told.
there are some four thousand of these
bits Of land, though not many more
than a hundred are populated, and
most Of the islands are only great reefs
thrown up from volcanic sea In some
by-gone day.
The British West Indies have total
area of 12,10O square miles-equal TO
the states of Massachusetts and Con-
nectlcut. They have a population of
nearly 100000, for the most part rIe-
groes, but with scattering of few
thousand whites and a curious mixture
Of other peoples from all the world
Hindus, Javanese. Chinese, Sinmese.
Christians, Mnhometuns, Buddhists
and Confucianlsts. Some Of the islands
are sparsely settled, while others are
more densely populated than any other
region on earth except China.

strictly one of the Indies, but is often
classed with them. Its 300 islands,
tutting out of the sea nearly 600 miles
Off the Caroinas, attract many vlsi-

The Bahamas-3,0O0 Of them-are
also well known to the winter resort
tourists who flock to Nassau. They
stretch off to the southeast from Flor

All the island interest centerS in the

there Is neither fertility nor rains or

and gives Dominica the name Of one

island live the few remaining pure
blooded, yellow Caribs. the warlike
people who fought the European set
tiers through 300 years before being
almost exterminated.
st. Lucia is important on the map
because 1t is a coaling station for all
the Caribbean. The Inhabitants know
no other employment than CARRYING

I0DAY's BEAUTY HINT

It is not necessary to shampoo
your hair so frequently if it is en-
tirely and properly cleansed each
time by the use of a really good
shampoo. The easiest to use and
quickest drying shampoo that we
can recommend to our readers is
one that brings out all the natural
beauty of the hair and may be en-
joyed at very little expense, by dis
solving a teaspoonful of canthrox
which can be obtained from any
druggist, in a cup of hot water.
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead of just
to the top of the head. This, when
rubbed into the scalp and onto
every strand of hair, chemically
dissolves all impurities. 1t is very
soothing and cooling in its action,
as well as beneficial to both scalp
and hair. After rinsing out the
lather SO created, you will find the
scalp is fresh, clean and free from
dandruff, while the hair dries
quickly and evenly, developing a
bright luster and soft fluffiness,
that makes it seem very heavy,

Explosion Would Make
A B ia Noise Anyhow

In considering the monster ac-
cumulatiens of surplus war materials
now stored in all corners of the
earth, it must be remembered that
depreciation is rapid, even in time
of peace. Bigggun ammunition, in
particular, deteriorates quickly, be-
coming dangerous to handle and un-
certain in operation. So a Swiss
meteorologist, the October Popular
Mechanics Magazine says, suggests
that the big shells be used in gil
gantic, unprecedented experiment,
which should clarity many long-de-
bated questions, among them the re-
lation between detonationand rain
fail. He would have the shells col
lected in great dumps of definite
dimensions, at definite places. By
exploding the shells at stated time.
the accompanying phenomena could
be charted by the weather men with
some approach, to accuracy.

proposed amendments to the Ohio
constitution initiated by the vets
are adopted at the November cleo
ton. every child large enough to
toddle to a soft drink or drug store

Mr.. Schneider says: Underneath
the cainoufage of liberality the vets
are trying to legalize 3.45 per cent
beer. The beer could be sold any
where at all hours. Laws preventing
sales to habituals and sales to minors
would not apply. 1t would open a
saloon in every dry hamlet without
a license. 1t is the most daring and
dastardly move ever conceived by

Engine Breaks Loose and
Runs Two Miles From Train

Passengers on Burlington train

the train became disconnected from

was discovered that the train had
been left behind.
Another engine was sent out from
Omaha and the train pushed the
rest of the distance. Howard H:

men, who were on their way to Lin
coin on business, left the train and
walked to South Omaha, where they
