Campaign

The board OF managers Of the New

poor and the sick OF New York. espe
cially for children and those who are
suffering from tuberculosis and who
should live in the open air, but who
have insufficient clothing to keep them
warm.
The A. l. c. P soon will open its
summer camps and seashore homes,
and many undernourished and delicate
children will arrive, i'll clad and poorly
equipped. The association is unable
to furnish clothing because Of INSULT
cient funds to meet the even more ur-
gent needs in this time of unemploy-
ment. 1t has therefore organized the
sweater-knitting campaign, depending
largely upon the women who responded
in other great emergencies, especially
during the war, to now help the men,

Letters have been sent to nearly one
hundred women's clubs and organiza-

The association will furnish to
women's clubs and other organizations
free of charge all the wool required
to knit sweaters and will give full in
structions regarding the details of the
work. Provision should be made for
at least $4,000 sweaters.

ONE OF GERMANY'S LOST
TERRITORIES

The former German Samoan islands
constitute one of the important groups of
Pacific islands that have fallen to the lot
of Great Britain, through New Zealand,
as result of the World war.
The Samoan group, called by former.
geographers "The Navigators' Islands,"
from the skill in navigation shown by its
inhabitants, consists of four principal bits
of land lying in the South Pacific, nearly
midway between New Zealand and
Hawaii.
The number of islands in the group
may, by counting the smaller, be increased
to II, or even IA, but only Savii, Upolu,
Tutuia, (owned by the United Sstates)
and the three usually included under the
general term Manua, are important.
All are verdure-clad and inhabited, and
in appearance and shape resemble i'm
mense green hats, the interior representing
the crown being mountainous, while the
brim or shore is covered with cocoanut
palms, breadfruit, banana and other tropi
cal trees, which furnish the native food.
AT some prehistoric period the peaks of
a submerged mountain chain running
northeast and southwest have been lifted
from the depths of the ocean by the up
heaval of volcanoes now long extinct.
Accumulations of soil brought by heavy
rains from the mountains meet the ever
growing reef, which prevents easy ap-
proach to the land except in those places
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1921-05-19

where fresh-water streams, forcing their
way through, form openings in the coral
barrier.
Between reef and shore lagoon, vary
ing in width from 200 yards to two or
three miles, provides secure highway for
coast and inter-island traffic. The entire
length of the group, if Rose island be in
cluded, is little less than 800 miles, and
the gross area of the islands is larger than
the state of Rhode Island by so square
miles.
The native inhabitants of the islands of
Polynesian stock and are clearly related
to the natives of both Hawaii and New
Zealand. For practical purposes these ma
tives may be divided into four classes. At
the head stand the chiefs, who are heredi-
tary in the sense that they must belong to
certain families, but elective in that they
exercise authority by virtue of titles con-
ferred on them.
The Tulafale, talking-man, is their ex-
ecutive officer, who phrases their thoughts
in eloquent language. and is frequently
the central figure in the district and the
source of authority. Below him and above
the lowest class, composed of what are
known as the common people," are the
native teachers and catechists, who wear
more clothes and do less fighting than the
rest of the population.
There is nothing in the dress or bearing
of high chief which enables a foreigner
to distinguish him, but he is isolated from
the rest of the people by system of rigid
etiquette. No one may hold up an UNI
brella or do certain kinds of work in his
presence, and a special vocabulary is set
apart in which to address him. The COM
mon names for food, an axe, pig, ETC.,
are tabooed in his presence. His face, his
anger and other attributes are described
in an entirely different set of words from
those used for ordinary men.
The powers and duties of the talking
men" are considerable. They are men of
much dignity of carriage, and as they
stand leaning upon staff of Office with
"fue," or Ay-Aap cast over one shoulder,
with which occasionally to emphasize their
remarks, they compare favorably in ap-
pearance with the orators of a nation
more civilized than themselves.-Ex.
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1921-05-19

The academies were established by de-
voices of science and art. The Language
academy recently took possession of new
building. The Museum of Bogota con-
tains objects of beauty and considerable
historic worth. A Museum of Natural
History founded by the Christian Brother
hood (Hermanos Christianos) possess ex-
haustive collections.
The universities happily own adequate
buildings. Recently the building to be
used for anatomic lecture halls was COM
pleted, equipped much like the correspond
ing building of the University of Paris.
Public instruction is becoming constantly
more widely diffused mad Bogota is the
center of schools supported by the govern
ment.
Bogota, by the refinement of its inhabi-
tants and the luxury in evidence, might
be taken for European city. Culture
is marked; foreign news is received
promptly; desirable features of Paris and
London are initiated to stimulate progress.
Unfortunately, owing to the extreme mar
rowness of the streets, many of the archi
tectural features of the city cannot be ap-
preciated; nevertheless, upon contemplate
ing the constant progress of the capital
and its development, one is forced to the
conclusion that Bogota will become an
imperial city in the western world, the
heart of the plateau which extends 16
leagues from north to south and eight from
cast to west.
Economically Bogota is on sound foot
ing, being commercial and banking GEN.
ter of constantly growing importance.
There are five banks of large capital, the
American Mercantile bank (Banco Mer-
cantil Americano) having been established
last year, and at present the establishment
of another is under consideration. Several
insurance companies contribute to the sue
cess of financial enterprises. Large ex-
port houses have founded headquarters
there and importation is conducted on
rather large scale. Foreign credit COM
panies in the United States and Europe
are added factors in Bogotas develop
ment. Industry also is being exploited.
Thread and textile industries compete with
foreign establishments in the production
of fabrics and cloth. Stock raising is in
creasing considerably on the plain, the
strains having been carefully selected
from stock brought from England, and
the wool market is plentiful.-Ex.
