The story of "Bluebeard" and his

Corporal Lester F. Scott of the
Thirty-flfth company, United States
marines, who is stationed at Charlotte
Amalie In the little island recently
acquired by the United States writes
as follows of the people and their be-
liefs:
"On the west shore of the bay lies
settlement Of French people called
EhaChas. These people came orig
inally from The Dutch and French
Leeward islands. They have not
married with the negroes, and they
live to themselves, resenting any out
side interference with their affairs.
"They are hard drinking race, yet
they are the most industrious people
on the Island, and are especially good
canoemen. Their boats are long, mar
row affairs made out of scraps of
wood. They supply the town with fish
and the women make straw hats that
find ready sale among the negroes.
"They will never rise any higher
than the true beach-comber, because
the race has degenerated, due to in
termarringe in so small colony. With
their rudy faces, stifiiy starched blue
shirts, tight white trousers and broad
brimmed hats, they present curious
and unusual appearance.

famous old castles of 'Bluebeard' and

A Campaign Editorial

This little editorial on the Blue Trt-
angle campaign which is to take
place here on Saturday and Sunday,
was written by Miss Estelline Ben
nett, publicity director for the North
Central field:
1.-The success Of the Blue Triangle
campaign depends upon the intensive
work Of those most interested in the
Young women's Christian associa-
ton. The regular routine work Of
any organization lacks the universal
flashing appeal of war work, The
demands of a great war, the desola-
ton and horror, and frightful need
that stalk beside 1t and follow in its
wake are things that everyone under
stands. They meet a quick response
in sympathy. money and time. War
work quotas r comparatively easy
to raise. War workers are not few.
The needs Of peace time are SC quiet,
so common that they arouse little en-
thusiasm and less understanding.

city, preaching a victory ermo last

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali. which is very injurious, as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Just plain
mulsiled cocoanut oil. for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
and a few n will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub It in. about q teaspoonful is
all that Is required. It makes an
abundance Of rich,. creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy. wavy and easy to
handle. Besides, 1t loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandrun.

Jimmy Coon Stands Up for Cousin
Bruin.

Well, I wish o could have seen
how the news spread about the Giant
Bear and the Farmer Boy running
home at break neck speed. Many Of
the little people5o OF the Great Forest
were Disguised with the Giant Bear;
and Bobby Skunk snapped out: why
didn't that Big Black Giant swallow
the Farmer Boy whole? I wish he
of trouble with his traps and his
awful gun!" And all the little people
crowded arounds Jimmy Coon and
Sammy Muskrat to hear all the
strange news about the Giant Bear
and the Farmer Boy. Everybody
talked at once and asked lots of ques.
tons.
1T always told you fellows that

often scared that great Giant almost
to death, by just shaking my >tail,

me too" shouted Bobby Skunk.
why, I have stood my ground many
a time in the little Winding Path and
when I aimed at Giant Bears little
left black eye. o would have
laughed to see him run. I tell you all
he is scared to death at the sound Of
any noise, or the sight of any
stranger"
Nov you chaps stop running down

Don't o fellows know that Giant
Bear is my First Cousin. and that
our family all call him Cousin
Bruin'? He is the strongest and
bravest Chap in the Great Forest.
And don't any of you little people
run him down in my presence!" And
Jimmy Coon strutted around and
stuck out his chest as If he were a
prize-fighter. The little people tool
sides at once, and some said: the
Giant Bear was a big Coward; and
others, like Jimmy Coon, said that
Cousin Bruin was as brave as a lion.
And I'm sorry to say that some go,
angry, and it looked as If the fur
would fly in a great quarrel.
