BY c. H. E.

A very brilliant page in the history of
these islands was completed on the 7th
and 9Th of April. 1926, when the Virgin
Islands Education Association assembled
in convention at ST.. Thomas.
The good ship SUdn, having been de-
tailed for the purpose, appeared at Chris.

9th, and at 3 O'Clock p. m. steamed out
through the tOrtuous, but we'll marked

who, most 0 them, were thus having
their initial lesson in Navigation. BIT
the ship had hardly gained tea miles of
her course when the sharp points of Nep.
tunes trident began to make themselves
felt upon the digestive economy of the
voyagers, as could be evidenced from the
number of pulssant pedagogs who lay
PROSTATE on the deck, or in some other
posture, expressive of their submission
to the mighty god of the deep.

and were received at the dock by a COM
mittee of teachers especially appointed
for this purpose. Prominent among those
who had gathered at the landing place to
bid welcome TO the visitors was the Di.
rector of Education, Mr.. Arthur E. Lind
borg, whose golden smile and hear,y
handshake evinced the JOY he felt in see
ing so many faces familiar to him, and
among whom he has worked for quite a
number of years. The much shaken men
tors were then conducted t1their several
places Of s%oj0urn, where, under Hospital
BILE roots, they might dispel their nausea,
within the soothing arms Of Morpheus.
On Wednesday morning, 7h April, the
first business meeting of the Convention
was opened in the Town School Building
with an invocation by Mr.. Reginald Nc
Farlane, Clerk of The Lutheran ChUrch,
at Frederiksted, St. Croix, after which,
Randmaster Adams led in the singing of
Come Thou Almighty King and "A

marks, by way of introduction, conduct
ed the following interesting program:

Mr.. P. G. Thurland handled his theme
in a mastery manner, while the young
and promising viOlinist, HOratio Hodge,
was heard at his best. The Presidents
Report may be characterized as "multum
in parvO;" while the Report of the Gem
mittee on Legislation, delivered by Mr..
Francisco Quinones, is worthy of special
mention, since certain striking portions
of it could easily be expanded and incor-
porated into what might be called a Bill
of Rights for the Teaching Profession in
these parts. Mr.. Quinones deserves
much credit for the excellent content of
his report. One of the very seasonable
things said by this gentleman in the
course Of his remarks is. that teachers
have the right to use the columns of the
public press 10 defend their educational
policy There is no doubt that at this
time in particular, the vicissitudeS of
education call loudly for such a procedure
on the part Of those who are responsible
to posterity for the kind of material they
are sending forward to fill the ranks of
those who will have gone before. The

She has no soc1aI advantages, and /
doubt that she would be Gerry success
full socially as the wife of a promi-
nent business man. But l love her
so much that I'm almost willing to
take the chance, in the hope that mar
riage may change her views.-F. r.
The power OF sex, which must be
the main attraction in your case, will
not be great enough to- hold together
in comradeship, happiness, and endur-
ing love, the man and woman of ma
common interests. If married life
were one continual round OF love-
making, the attraction might serve.
But it isn't. Only the broad, general
common interests of life can devel-
op the affection and comradeship that
will survive fer a lifetime.
The average couple who differ on
certain things can manage to attain
happiness by making compromise. A
few points of incompatibility must
arise between two people, but where
the lack Of common interests is so
marked in your case, that marriage
seems to be vary hazardous venture.
I'd like to tell you to go ahead and
marry the girl you care so much for,
but I'm afraid if you did you would
