I.ET9 60 ON ATW MONTHS' TOUR IN THE. CAR SUMMER- WE COULD TAKE “WENT IN” WITHOUT ARMOR Doughboy Resented lmputatlon Whizsh | Museum Exhibit Seemed to Con- vey to the World. A veteran of the A. E. F,, wander- | ing umong the armor exhibits at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, tound himself suddenly face to face with a “tin hat"—approved A. E. F. model— ceremoniously installed in a glass case of its own near the haystack-shaped helmets of the early Tartar tribes and the halberds and billhooks of ‘the European Middle ages. It made him feel historic and important—for a short moment—until, his eye took in the rest of the exhibit below ti hat, There was a complete suit of nrmor made out of the same metal-as. the tin | hat, and it comprised a neckpieéé, a breastplate, a stomach shield and a pair of thigh guards, all oyverlapping, and a string of overlapping steel plates down each arm—all strapped to a dum- my doughboy dressed in O. D. and wearing the tin ‘hat,” It was 1ubeled . “American Armor.” “It's all wrong,” sald the veteran to an attendant. “There wasn't any- thing like ‘that over there.” “But,” said the uttendant, “the sign | here says at the bottom ‘Experimental Armor,’”. pointing to a swall_card inside the case. “I suppose that means to say it wasn’t used-in practice.” “Well, it .doesn't say It clearly enough for me,”. said the vdteran.’ He went off vowing indignantly that | he would lodge a protest with the mu- seum authorities or with the American Legion ‘“or York Sun. * HELPS SOUTH SEA NATIVES St:hool Fuunded by Ennllnh iWoman Has Been of Benefit in Inculcat. ing Self Reliance. North of Fiji, in one of the islands of the Ellice group of the South seas, education of a practical nature has been going on, and a deserted coral island has been the scene of a school for girls where not only the ordinary curriculum of European schools has been in force but house-building, boating and other necessary arts of a Robingon ~Crusoe life. ~When the school was started there was not an- other living person on the fsland of Papaelise, which is an enchanting island, three-quarters of a mile long and about a hundred yards in width, its shores surrounded by coral reefs and the bluest of blue seas. The school was started by an Eng- lishwoman, Miss Joliffe, in- 1912, and she has been’ the head in this island of learning in the South seas till the present time, when she felt it was time to take a holiday. Devoted to her girls as they are to her, she tells of their self-reliance and capability. They bullt their own houses and dormitories with the help of a few native men, whose services were shortly dispensed with, and only one old man retained to help in the coco plantations.. There are about 2,000 coconut trees on the island and the girls look after them. Declared Nature Exempt. “There is another story told by Pro- fessor Roerich which results in the hearer asking for assurande of its truth, which is given. It seems that certain enthusiastic revolutionists in authority in Moscow decided that a highly decorative and significant effect could be produced by painting the grass and the trees about the govern- ment buildings in Moscow a bright red. Orders were given and the gov- ernment painters set themselves indus- triously to work giving an appearance to the official vegetation which we commonly attribute to growth on the planet Mars. Whereupon the startled, workingmen and soldiers of:'the 'eity" | marched through the streets and made-|| b solemn protest against ‘painting. the trees and grass of the city red. Their: wishes in-the matter were respected and nature was relieved of the. neces- | sity of subscribing to’ the soviet code. —Christian Science Monitor. ¥ An optimist is a man who places a long distance call and says that he will “hold the phone."—Arkansas Gazette.
