PAID DEAR FOR CIVILIZATION
Writer Asserts White Races Made Bad
Bargain In Exchanging Reality
for the Artificial.

When the later voyagers of Europe
came to the uncharted spaces of these
warm South Pacific seas they found In
the Polyneslan group culture which
was beyond the understanding of most
Of them, and which only few fine
souls gllmpsed as an astounding rev.
elatlon of the natural development OF
humanity, and, by contrast, of the de.
pravity Of civilization.
They found health and high spirits
abOunding to degree utterly strange
to them, the hardest and most adven.
tur0us Of their white kind. Murder,
mutlny, shipwreck, and desertlOn
wrote red their reactions to the en-
tranclng liberty of thought and ac-
tion they found here, and the contrast
with their rude, ugly restricted lives
In Europe, America, or on their ships.
II you would be ashamed of what
the pursuit of profits and proselytism,
hand In hand has done, read the re-
ports of explorer missionary, captain
and trader In these waters, and view
the remnant, after beanty and honesty
had been replaced by modernlty and
hypocrisy.
It was In clothing that the first In.
sldlous approach was made.
In this valley where am now the
only foreigner, with my word and ex.
ample, life resumes for time at least
much of the old Marquesan way and
appearance. The mission church, the
first Christian edllice within a thou
sand miles Of here, Is fast rejoinlng
the wilderness. Its walls are falling
In decay and its garden is but a jun
gle. The schoolmaster who taught
Vaitahu's children to say, ia France
est le plus bonne pays du monde" is
gone.
Existence Is become almost as de-
void of invention and dvested Of arti-
fclality as before the white man came,
am able to rebulld\ In my mind the
structure of MarQucsan customs and
to view In imagination the attractive
aspect of Valtahu and its idylllc days
Of old We have brought out Of the
huts the native garments Of tapa, and
we live as much as possible perspec-
tiye'of the past.
The Tahitlans thought the whites
who first arrived were gods, and when
they found they were men, with their
same passions, they thought they were
Ill. That is the first impression one
who lives long with Polynesians has
when he meets group Of whites,
They look pale, Sharp-faced and wor-
rled, We pay dear for factories and
wheeled vehicles. 0'Brien

loeusts In Argentina.

A plague of lOcusts, like that which
in ancient Egypt covered the face OF
the earth," this year descended upon
the province Of Santa Fe, Argentina.
Similar oifenslves are almost annual
events In one part or another OF the
country.
The locusts come suddenly and
without warning. Where for year or
several years perhaps not one OF the
insects has been seen, verltable
cloud OF them will one day appear
and settle on the ground.
At first little damage is done, brt
as they progress through the country
they bore holes into the earth, INTO
which they deposit their eggs. Within
a short time the larvae are hatched
and come forth At first these can
not fly, and 1t Is at this stage that they
devour every living plant within their
path, with the exception of few
species, such as willow trees,
A little later the insects develop
their wings and, leaving the country
through which they have passed a
desert, they disappear almost as sud-
denly as they came. Where they 90

The Difference.

Mr.. II. G. Wells hns no exalted opin.
ion Of the works Of modern authors,
judging from the following story.
Some time ago n friend was talking
to him about the good times that
novellsts of today have compared with
those Of the past.
"You modern writer's do not work
so hard" he said, "and you are paid
twenty times as much as you ought
TO he"
Mr.. Wells gently shook his head.
"You labor under a misapprebenslon,
my boy" he replied; "the chief df.
ference between the old authors and
those of today is simply This: They
die and their works live; our works
die and we llve-aS best we canl"

OUrRAGEs IN THE VIRGIN ISLANDS
PAST N PRESENT.
The Cause And Effect.
BY ASHLEY +. TOTTEN

The action taken by the United States
Marine Corps in the case of Private
Robert Stewart is commendable, and
shouI be highly appreciated by the
citizens Of the Virgin Islands for more
reasons than one.
Much has been said against the con-
duct of the United States Marines in the
tropics, and whenever complaints are
made against them, it is usually so ex~
aggerated that the public is aroused to
an intense state of a~ggravation against
them.
But it must be remembered that in the
days of the Danish regime, there were
soldiers and gendarmes who ran amuck,
and committed dastardly deeds on I'M
offending citizens.
| recall an incident some years ago
when a company of soldiers stole out of
the barr" - swords and rev divers,
firing ,ly about the streets of
Christiansted.
Mr.. Gregorio Anduze, a barber there,
was made a victim Of a gun shot wound.
Several respectable persons were
beaten up.
The Danish authorities took no other
action in the matter but to send an
armed patrol around the streets for
several nights to intimidate the inhabi-
tants.
The Editor of the st. Croix Avis at the
time was fined for commenting on the
matter.
Whenever a Danish soldier or gen
darme committed an o%ffense, it was
necessary for one to reach out and gee
his cap or helmet to find out his number.
No one ever knew his name.
If punished at all, nc one ever heard
anything about it.
AS a matter of fact, a public discussion
of outrages in those days was oft times
met with a reprimand from the police.
So it must be a source of satisfaction
to learn that the present form of COVER
ment in the islands is ling drastic meas
