Ask States To Marx Historic Spots.

Acampaisn Of education on the historic
spots 10 each State is being planned BY
the Daughters Of the American Revolution
as one Of the methods Of teaching history.
il has been announced By Mrs L S Gil
ientine. national chairman Of the commit
tee on the preservation Of historic spots
Of the society. The committee win ask
chambers Of commerce and automobile
associations throughout the county to
assist in the movement Of directing the
attention Of the travelling public to the
historic sites and by marking them on
road maps.
Properly marked and kept up. the his
torical spots become an sssest to any
State" Mrs Gillentine declared. "A num-
Der Of States already have realized their
value. OREGON Is proud OF her history and
has made her historic sites accessible to
all; California long ago saw the value Of
her old Spanish missions Tennessee has
for years made object lessons Of her his
toric spots. and Colorado has been recently
awakened to her interesting landmarks
while the Daughters Of the American
Revolution for many years have been
marking historic spots made sacred by the
War Of Independence. they have lately
extended the scope Of their work to catch
up and unity all points Of American his
tory 10 order TO give a panoramic record
Of the past
MANY who now tour through New Eng
land during the summer visiting sites Of
battlefelds and historic incidents OF the
Revolution should be encouraged to come
South later in the season. through Valley
Forge. Wakefield. Mount Vernon. Yorktown
and through the Carolinas and Georgia.
1T is the hope Of the society to have
the route marked west through the trail
made by Washington in the French and
Indian War. linking up the historic sites
in Ohio and Indiana. thence over the path
Of Lewis and Clark. the covered wagon and
the Sante Fe trail. thus making visible the
outlines OF our history and the mierations
Of the American people
Since one Of the principle objects Of
our society is to encourage the study Of
American history. we are stressine the
employment Of visual education methods
and the chairman urges each State to
bring to its own people knowledge Of its
own history. that all may appreciate the
fortitude and perseverance Of the sturdy
pioneers and the heritage they left U.s.

A esClose Up Oh The Virgin
Islands

Editor, Porto Rico Progress, Sir:-To
preface this brief article in which IshaII
endeavor 10 give a CLOSE up" view of
the outstanding features Of The Virgin
Islands in this their eighth year "A. U.
S. .. after Uncle Sam, | should say thai
as an "American pioneer in Porto Rico
| have had more or less of contempt for
the articles about this island published in
, 1925-03-17

I have referred to the egg with a
chicken in it. In Limbo" there are
more than one. | found one of these
eggs in every parlUr, place of business,
or other premise.
The country" is demanding a '"civil'
governmental democratic or republi-
can Il am not a partisan) right to self
determination.
Let me here make two observations of
fact which are necessary for a proper
understanding of this problem, if the
use of this word may be justified under
the c|ircun5sta ces.
The Spanish translation of the word
would fit the phrase suitably by an ap-
plicatiou of the admirable genius of that
language in the use of representatives
and ~diminutives. 'Problemita" would
be the right word to express the sitUa-
ton.
In the first place, the country" con
tains only about twenty three thousand
inhabitants. divided amongst the three
major islands Of St. Thomas, St, Croix
and St. John-in all, not so many as live
in the wards of Santurce and Puerto de
Terra in San Juan, or say, 10 one of the
rural townships Of the middle west, or in
OGGlefNllIG OF Ih6FlIlG III your UWU
State.
This observation is certainly based on
~indisputabic facts.
My other observation is based also on a
fact, as | view the situation from the
standpoint Of an impartial outsider with
much human sympathy for the welfare
of every class o people living under our
flag.
The politicians who hove set them
selves up as the spokesman of the inhab-
itants of the island sag they do not love
civil government.
The population forms two small NUM-
cipallties, st. Thomas and Saint Croix.
ST. John is only a small settlement under
the municipal government and admins
tration of Saint Thomas.
Each nGnicp.iity has its own elective
C.Uucil composed d. native inhabitants.
| understand that the municipal reven-
ues of both towns are inadequate for
purely municipal administration purpOS.
es. The construction and maintenance
of hospitals, courts, jaiIs, and other in
stitutions demanded for the public well
fare are only possible as a result Of the
appropriation Of funds by the national
