Locusts 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 offensives 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, veritable
cloud Of them will one day appear
and settle on the ground.
At first little damage is done, but
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 Matched
and come forth. At first these can
nor fly. and it 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 go
to has never been discovered

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 Polynesian group culture which
was beyond the understanding Of most
OF them, and which only a few fine
souls glimpsed as an astounding rev.
citation of the natural development Of
humanity, and, by contrast, of the de-
pravity Of civilization.
They found health and high spirits
Astounding to a degree utterly strange
to them, the hardest and most adven-
turous Of their white kind. Murder,
mutiny, shipwreck, and desertion
wrote red their reactions to the en-
trancing liberty of thought and. ac-
ton they found here, and the contrast
with their rude, ugly restricted lives
in Europe, America, or on their ships.
If 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 beauty and honesty
had been replaced by medernity and
hypocrisy.
1t was in clothing that the first in
sidious approach was made.
In this valley where ! am now the
only foreigner, with my word and ex-
ample, life resumes for a time at least
much of the old Marquesan way and
appearance. The mission church, the
first Christian edif1ce within a thou
sand miles of here, is fast rejoining
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, La France
est lie plus bonnie pays du monde" is
gone.
Existence is become almost as de-
void of invention and Invested Of arti-
ficiality as before the white man came.
l am able to rebuild in my mind the
structure Of Marquesan customs and
to view In Imagination the attractive
aspect of Vaitahu and its idyllic days
OF old. We have brought out Of the
huts the native garments of tapa, and
we live as much as possible perspec-
tive of the past.
The Tahitians thought the whites
who first arrived were gods, and when
they found they were men, with their
same passions, they thought they were
i'll. 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-
ried. We pay dear for factories and
wheeled vehicles.-Frederick O'Brien
