WHAT OTHERS THINK
WHERE IS UNITY?

Failure of the Virgin Is
lands to Congress and other
authorities as we clamor for
certain advancements has
been our lack Of progress in
various fields. We clamor. for
unity, while doing every
thing to prevent it from COM
ing about.
Nothing contributes more
to keeping the Islands dis
united than the attitude of
our local leaders that ST.
Croix is a poor relation
which should be scorned and
ostracized. It is obvious that
such an attitude must hurt
the pride of our sister island
and stir up resentment which
in turn widens the gulf
which now separates US.
We feel that it is time that
we stop putting too much
stress on the idea that what
happens to st. Croix is none
of our business. It is virtually
impossible for st. Thomas to
enjoy prosperity while Saint
Croix remains poverty striker.
We should not permit greed
and selfffshness to blind us to
the fact that we are all Virgin
Islanders.
It is certainly within bounds
Of reason to expect that in the
years to come St. roix will be-
come so developed that it will

A Local Seventh street resident
was richer by five dollars Saturday
night while a Sandusky clerk was
probably tearing her hair because
of a five dollar shortage in cash.
Seems as how the fellow had made
a purchase at a drug store in the
neighboring city and paid for the
purchase with a five dollar bill.
After walking away from the coun-
ter and while putting the change in
his billfold, he discovered that the
young clerk had given him change
for a ten. Wanting to rectify the
error in order to spare the girl
from taking the blame, he returned
to the counter and said, 81 believe
you made mistake in my change" "
But the young lady brushed him
off with, Sorry, we don't make
any adjustments once you've left
the counter" So, what did he
do? Just exactly what you or l
or anyone else would do drop
ped the matter and walked out.
Five dollars to the good.

Dog Days Are Not
DAYS To Be Feared

The month of August with it's
siege of hot weather is a grim re-
minder to many people, especially
to the slightly superstitious, that
"dog days" will soon spread a
mysterious cloud over the outdoors.
The cows and livestock will ap-
pear to be "witched", the streams
seem to take on the look and smell
of the dead and in general people
will become little more cautious
about tiny scratches which are
thought to be subject to immediate
infection just because it's "dog
days..
Actually there is nothing to fear
during this period of the summer.
1t just happens that the name has
been given to that time of the
year when the atmosphere is hot
and sultry. The use of the term
originated with the ancients to de-
scribe the period of the summer
of the rising of the dog star, Sir
ius, which included about 90 days
of the warmest part Of the year.
The dog star rises at different
time now. However, the term
continues to refer to that time
when the scarcity of rain causes
streams to stagnate and become
undesirable for swimming and wat
ering livestock.
Animals, especially dogs, suffer
with the extreme heat and appear
to go mad. Truthfully, mad dog
cases are more common in cold
weather but due to the prolonged
heat of the summer, dogs some
times like people, just get so mis-
cradle they want to bite something
or somebody and sometimes do.
