Lonely Island Might
Have Been Americas

BY only small margin did the
State department at Washington
miss having the worry of the help
less island of Tristan da Cunha
added to its cares, for it was once
claimed by an American. The is
land, lonely British possession In
the South Atlantic, had a measure
of prosperity In the early years of
the Nineteenth century when the
whale enticed men and wooden
ships into the region. II was a
haven for sailing ships from Sa-
lem, Gloucester and Boston. A Salem
man named Lambert and a com
panion took UP their residence on
Tristan da Cunha and Lambert de-
clared himself sovereign and sole
possessor of the island, ION the ra-
tional and sure ground of absolute
occupancy" His hope was to de-
yelop what might be called "till-
Ing station" for whaling ships. But
Lambert and his partner were
drowned two years later in the
tempeStuous seas for which the Is
land is infamous. Still the island
has some things to recommend It..
There are no laws. and when 1t was
proposed to give the people con-
stitution, they regarded such doc
ument as superfuous, so the few
inhabitants living there manage
their affairs without the complica-
ton of written covenants.-Nation-

CART" CREATIONS.

What a distorted view OF the
Mainland we get in the art
creations to be seen in the win
dows Of some Atlantic City de-
velopers. Each developer
seems to vision his individual
undertaking from his own
hopes, aims or desires. His own
creation of a wonder city OF
the future does not take into
any consideration surrounding
or other developments. Evea

through motor routes are neg

route into prominence to

compared to other routes.

to Be Used Next Week,
Supt. Reports.
Construction Held Up
Structure Will House 40 Stu
dents-Children of Lower
Grades Will Occupy the
New Rooms.

The portable school building
erected as an emergency measure
at the Woodland avenue school.

early next week, Supt. Simon M.
Horstick stated today. All grades
there, with the exception of the
kindergarten, will then be attend

stick stated.
Workmen again started to as
Semble the portable structure after
work had been held up by the
building inspector, Warren Austin,
because the foundations did not
follow the building code of the
city. A compromise was reached
whereby the foundations were
made stronger, and construction
was resumed.
1t was expected that the build
ing would be ready early this
month. Because of delay due to
! the trouble between the city and
| the builders, work on it was slowed
up considerable however. 1t Will
care for 140 pupils, and will re-
lieve over crowding at the Wood
land avenue building to a great de-
gree. Supt. Horstick and Mrs.
florence einhart, principal of the
No. l, School. are greatly pleased
to think that it will be put in use
soon.
plumbers now are holding up
completion of work on the build
ing. according TO Supt. Horstick.
However, it is believed that the
plumbers will be through in time
to enable teachers and children to
get into the building the early part
of the week.
The portable structure will be
used until it will be moved from
the Woodland avenue grounds tc
another section of The city, where
il will be used for the school pur
poses.
Children pf the lower grades
are being placed in the new school
that they may be dismissed in
time to enable their getting away
from the grounds before the Other
children come out of the large
building.

A SPIRITUAL CENSUS.
In his recent address To

a SFlNlIOAk OENSOS.
In his recent address to a
convention of advertisers, Pres
ident Coolidge predicted con-
tinuation of prosperity. In Tie
very nature of American life he
feels that the tendency is to-
ward greater development and
continuous growth. Seed
time will be followed by har-
vest" as he put it, the pro-
ductive capacity will increase
and our people will become
more prosperous. Material
prosperity alone. with a people
blinded to the spiritual realities
and necessities, would be but
the general destruction, the
President believes. In summing
up he said:
Our chief warrant for faith in
the future of America lies in
the character of the American
people. 1t is our belief in what
they are going to do, rather
than our knowledge of what
they are going to have, that
causes us to face the coming
years with hope and confidence.
The future of our country is not
to be determined by the mater
ial resources, but by the spirit
ual life of the people. So long
as our economic activities can
be maintained on the stand of
competition in service. we are
safe. If they ever degenerate
into a mere selfish scramble for
rewards, we are lost.
This was another way of ask
ing what it prohteth a man if
he gain the world and lose his
immortal soul. Our economic
well being. President Coolidge
says. depends on our integrity,
our honor. our conscience. Old
doctrines these are, but funda-
mental. We as nation take
pride in our enormous wealth,
in our 100000 automobiles,
our comfortable homes. our in
ventions and our devices that
make life easier and to a great
extent happier. These things,
after all. minister largely to the
body. We enjoy greater corr
fort. and that may hull our
minds. The joy Of the spirit
does not always come from
bodily comfort. There is a
righteous happiness in knowing
that duty has been done. that
fellow-man has been served and
that the temptation to become
soft and Aabby in national
thinking has been resisted. 1t
is of these things that the Pres
ident speaks and ponders. 1t
is quite as important to have a
spiritual census occasionally as
it is to count over material
gains.
