CHAPTER II
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL
Fortunately someone had left
a row boat tied up inside the
zoo gates and Mr.. Shnoo seat
ed the Queen in the bow of the
boat while he and Santa took
the oars.
How extraordinary" said
the Queen. I've never inspect
ed a zoo by boat before. I must
say 1t is quite restful!"
Some swans padded along
side and nodded gracefully to
the Queen as If they knew she
was royalty. A raft of bunny
rabbits floated by followed by
a crocodile who nudged the
Queens boat curiously before
drifting off.
How perfectly wonderful"
exclaimed the Queen. "You do
not keep the tame animals
Gagged in. They are at home all
over the zool"
At this moment the boat
came to q sudden halt and al
though Santa and Mr.. Shnoo
rowed furiously. nothing hap
pened. Then the boat began TO
rise from the water and they
saw TO their horror that Molly,
the hippopotamus. whom they
had forgotten to return TO her
cage, had swum under the boat
and was now trying to stand
I'D.
a.. Queen Is Brave
For q moment the boat tee
tered on Molly's back before
splashing down into the water
fortunately right side I'D. The
Queen was shaken but quite
game and thought Il all a
splendid lark. She took some
peanuts from her purse and
threw them to Molly.
Mr.. Shnoo and Santa rowed
on. They showed the Queen the
bear with the dinosaur teeth,
the monkeys who lived in the
RENDERS antlers. and Henriet-
Ia, the skating elephant.
The tour was almost ended
when q dreadful ruckus broke
out In the lion house. The
large cats reared and at the
same time q man screamed a
most awful scream.
Santa and Mr.. Shnoo bent
their backs TO the oars and In
two seconds the boat landed on

aLOW1RENT@ DEVELOPMENT

LOW-RENI DEVELOFMENl
THE LOW-COST housing units to be constructed here
for teachers in our schools is a far-Sighted and significant step
Because of the difficulty of obtaining qualified teachers, es-
pecially in the elementary grades, every step must be taken
to induce teachers not only to come here, but to remain.
H NEED for such housing points up one Of the most
difficult economic factors of our lives here. Suddenly we zoom-
ed into prominence as a tourist attraction. We enjoy a high
standard Of living, salaries are high, food and other costs are
high, and land is ~prohbitlve. But that is not the whole story,
for a closer look at the situation will reveal some %disappont.
ing and deceptive aspects.
THERE is nothing "low-cost" about this development
Rental for these will range between $50 and $l25. This is
not a criticism Of the builders, who no doubt face high cost
Of both materials and labor. Yet, it is almost p~aradoxical that
where the average income is SO low, rentals are consistently
high enough to be out Of proportion to the rest OF the economy
MTHE United States, where plumbing and heating must
be provided for, rents may be around $40 per room, and that
is middle income. Yet, in these Islands, where heating is never
a problem, a so-caled low income development starts at $50
per month.
THESE columns long ago threw out awarning that be
cause of the bonanza of land these Islands would face a serious
problem, and once this matter was allowed to continue would
pull. us to the place where our economy would never be able
to balance itself. Teachers, as a general rule are not high7sala-
ried professionals. In fact, they are perhaps the most UNDER
paid among public servants. This fact is making itself felt in
these Islands, as the Department of Education is finding diff
Guilty in securing qualified teachers.
IT IS generally conceded that rent should be about one
third Of a persons yearly income. If rent goes beyond that
percentage then the employee is in serious trouble because
he will then not be able to meet his other expenses adequately
So, that in order for a teacher to pay $l25 a month, or $500
year his salary should be at least $4,000. Under such a form.
ua it is easy to see that the Department must be ready to

WE REPEAT, that this is no one-sided problem. The

ment. However, conditions have beentallowed to develop to
point where runaway prices are staring the consumer in
the face ike a hungry wolf.
H PROJECT for teachers is a good idea. However
the Department Of Education must also be prepared to face
its problem, and see to it that salaries are high enough to at
tract qualified teachers. The project is one inducement. Now
salaries must be set to allow for rental in such a place.

The Best of Enemies" are
mainly two officers, one Brit
lsh. one Italian. who after a
deal of absurd travail and bat
tie turmoil find that they share
a common hatred for war and
rather a lot of admiration for
each other. On the way to this
Jolly revelation. each does
lot of private brooding on what
the blaZes is their purpose in
fighting over a dreary eXpanse
of Ethiopian sand.
The two key roles are played
by David Niven and Alberto
Sordi and what a lot they find
of honor. dignity, respect, wis
dom and hilarity in the clash
between them. Yet, there is no
hint in their relations that
knighthood has returned to
flower and a nice thing this
is in the perSuasiveneSS of the
Dino DeLaurentis production.
1t would be a mistake not
to enjoy this cheerful SideShow
from World War II, shot in
the silly, sunny, sandy empti-
ness of an African desert. In
Technicolor. (Honest, Mrs.
Sturgeon.
The action involving the two
officers and their commands
takes on the nature of a zany
chess game. This centers in a
succession of moves in which
each force is alternately and
unpredictably the captive of
the other, Ultimately. the big
question raised by this in the
mind of each combatant is
whether it is better to be cap
tor or captive, the answer to
which is that there really is no
choice between them.
1t would not be fair to tell
who ends up finally in what
position in this kind of inverse
Bridge on the River Kwai."
Nevertheless. it is splendid |
fun which keeps popping with
the acid contempt which Niven
and Sordi maintain in spite of
the disconcertingly decent be-
havior each shows in moments
of crisis. Typical of these are
SordiS scheme to let Niven
escape when he feels the Itali-
ans food supply is hardly up
to British mess standards, and
Niven'S restoration of arms to
Sordi's men when the latter
are threatened with slaughter
by a huge native Ethiopian
force.
There is no hint of the
mockingly heroic in the rela-
tions of the two men. In con-
slant conformation from the |
first scene to the films last,
they never quite forget they
are enemies. Each truly enjoys
laShing the other for his mill
tary ineptitude, but each is
victim of a creeping admira-
tion for the others humanity.
The climax to which this
leads will have to be treated
as a military secret but it is
to mention that it
is as touching and thought
