Troop 7. Mrs. J. P. Hovey, captain: Mary Erwin, ting scribe, held a campfire celebration near Good Hope silver Hill to celebrate winning of the field meet. There were six autos full of girls. “Hot dogs” and marshmallows were roasted in a big campfire, and homemade cakes and candy were passed around. After the feast there was a genuine camp entertainment. Troop 7 has heen working hard to have all second-class scouts by Sum- mer. Several new members passed their tenderfoot test last week and are now beginning second class. The motto is “Not work always, but games and hikes often.” Two members will receive first-class badges at the court of awards.. Troop 15 held its regular meeting Friday in the Wallach School. Troop 3 was present, having been invited to attend the presenting of tenderfoot pins. Virginia Daiker, patrol leader, conducted the opening ceremonies. Then Capt. Pain presented the pins to Virginia Ladd, Ida Cannon, -Elea- nor Wilson, Vivian Watts, Mervale Bond, Janette Bandel and Virginia Daiker. The last four were already tenderfoot scouts, but had never been invested. The troops then gathered around Capt. Pain, who gave direc- tions and rules for the court of awards. They also learned a song of Capt. Pain’s composition. Miss Rawlings, principal of the Wal lach School, was the guest of the day Leah Woods is scribe of the troop. Troop 21, Agnes McElvoy, captain; Laura Brundage, scribe, met at the Petworth School. After the opening meeting, re-election of officers of some patrols took place. The group of girls under Mrs. Reid, the lieutenant, organized a “sick com- {mittee.” The girls pay dues of five cents a week and the money is used to buy flowers for the sick. Bernice Drissel, who came down with a severe attack of mumps, was the first to receive flowers. This was the last meeting to be held in the school, but as long as 10 or more girls choose to attend meet- ings in the Summer, they will be held at_the captain’s home. Pine Cone Troop, 34, Vera Lawrence eaptain: Etta May Blankenship, scribe, held its meeting Thursday at the Ana- costia Methodist Church. Alice Wil- liams and Gladys Acton received their tenderfoot pin: Jacqueline Kelly, South America (Continued from Third Page.) constituted a Sea Urchin with all privileges and emoluments, if any, appertaining thereto. Attested: G. LINCOLN JOST. COMDR. H. L. LOOK. (Sealed with a large gold seal, sign- ed Neptunus Rex.) On the morning of the twelfth day, about 8 o'clock, we sighted Corcovado and the Sugar Loaf, marking the en- trance to the harbor of Rio de | Janiero, which we entered about 10:30 o'clock. This ended the first leg of our journey. We had steamed over 4,700 miles without a stop. We had passed Europe and sailed a long way parallel to the African coast. The sun had gone to the north of us. We had passed from the temperate and through the torrid zone from Spring through Summer into Fall. The Southern Cross was nearly overhead. The Southern constellations vied with each other in brilliancy and glory. We were in & new hemis- phere, looking upon sights new to most of us and expecting {o.see new. lands, new peoples and a new civili- zation. We had passed through a Dleasant, enjoyable, restful, glorious experience and were thrilled with anticipated sights and experiences. No more pleasant or restful v an be taken than the one from > York to Rio de Janeiro. No Mountains in Brazil. As we neared Rio de Janeiro we saw the ridges and the hills that parallel the Brazilian coast for a long way. Much to my surprise 1 learned that there are no mountains in Brazil, except the chain of low-lying ranges that parallel the eastern coast line for many hundreds of miles. These are from 2,500 to 3,000 feet high and are much broken up into hillock like mountains, green covered with a stunted growth of trees and shrubbery, none of it very large or very high. 5 No words can adequately describe the beauty of Rio de Janeiro and harbor. Islands, hills and shore peaks stand like sentinels guarding the en- trance. some of them green with tropical verdure and others almost wholly barren walls of solid rock. The Sugar Loaf and Corcovado, with intervening hills and peaks stand out imposingly, while Tzchul looms frown- ingly in the background overlooking the city and the far-famed harbor at its base. The harbor is as nearly landlocked as a harbor can be. The |entrance channel is of ample width |and depth, but narrow compared with the expanse of water within. It is sald the harbor at Sydney, Australi alone rivals in beauty the harbor at Rio. I can imagine none more beau- tiful. The harbor has sufficient depth for the largest ships and will float the |navies of the world. Brazil's entire navy was there when we entered— two gunboats, three destroyers and a few submarines. The gunboat that | was stolen a short time ago by a por- {tion of its crew was resting serenely near the entrance. The harbor is encircled by green hills of varying heights. Its expanse is interspersed with islands. Upon many of them are buildings. On one of them, I was told, that there are about 1,000 po- litical prisoners, against whom no charges have been filed, but who have been there for several months. In fact, Rio {s now under martial law and has been since the Sao Paulo revolution. City Well Lighted. The city is splendidly lighted and at night the harbor is almost entirely encircled with twinkling lights. The hills come down from all sides and cut the city up into many glmost in- dependent sections. The streets “Drinking Stick” Of Jubaland Daddy Of Modern ‘Straw’ Two-Foot Affair Used to Draw Water From Cav- ities of Yak Tree. The great-grandfather of the mil, lions of straws through which young and old America sips its Summer drinks has been found. It is the ‘drinking stick” of Jubaland, the northeastern portion of Great Britain's Kenya colony on the east coast of Africa, according to a bulletin from the National Geographic Soclety. The queer yak trees of the Juba- land deserts have great cavities in their trunks in which rainwater col- lects and is preserved for months. Most of these cavities have very small necks, %o that dipping water out is impossible. Therefore every traveler in the desert, whether native black or white explorer or trader, carries his invaluable “drinking stick” and sucks his drinks from deep in the hollow trees The Jubaland ‘“‘drinking stick™ is about 2 feet long and half an inch in diameter, with a hollow center as blg as a pencil. 12 NU}iSES GRADUATED. ' Finish at Warsaw School Founded by Red Cross. Correspondence of the Associated Press. WARSAW, May 23.—The Warsaw Nursing School, founded by the American Red Cross and stiil sup- ported in part by it has celebrated its third commencement exercises. Twelve diplomas were issued to young girls who had finished a two years' course. Miss Bridge, the head of the school, spoke in Polish, which she has mas- tered since 1921. The work of the school is so highly appreciated that the Polish government has set aside a sum of money for a new buildin Hazel Tilghman, Mae Tilghman and Gertrude Tew took parts of the ten- derfoot test. ' Ethel Soper received her second-class badge. Plans were made for the lawn party and for attending the court of awards. On Friday seven members of the troop attended the court of awards, with the captain and lieutenant. The follow- ing members were presented badges by Mrs. Coolidge: Ethel Soper, Jose- phine Rankin, Anna Fugitt and Etta May Blankenship. Mrs. Hoover in- vested the lleutenant, Ina Lawrence as a second-class scout, and the cap- tain, Vera Lawrence, was decorated with a speclal medal of merit by Mrs. Coolidge. On June 2 began the captain’s ninth successive year as captain of Troop 34. The girls who attended the court of awards were Ethel Soper, Helen Earn- shaw, Josephine Rankin, Anna Fugitt, Alice’ Willlams, Gertrude Tew and Etta May Blankenship. Troop 40, Mrs. Conrad H. Young, captain; Ruth Schreiber, scribe, omitted its regular meeting and went to Rosslyn for the court of awards. Katherine Merritt received badges for citizen and musiclan. The girls enjoyed the afternoon un- der the hospitality of Mrs. Theodore Wilkinson. And ‘they enjoved their share of the candy, which Mrs. Cool- idge left for the scouts. Sunday, Troops 40 and 42, combined presented to the Chevy Chase Presby- terian Church a Christian flag. Great Field For U. S., Says Senator Jones are narro The buildings are beau- tiful and magnificent, largely of Portu- guese architecture. One wide street has been cut right through the main part of the city at a very great ex- pense, but adding greatly to the city’s beau Street cars run in every di- rection, and they run in pairs or threes of first, second and third class. You cannot ride first class if you are carrying a bundle, or if you are with- out your coat or hat, no matter how hot it may be. All through South America they are very punctillious in these respects. Regardless of the heat, they will dress in a certain way and all classes of the people ob- serve this custom. At Santos every laborer who came fo the docks to help unload our cargo carried his coat on his shoulder and wore it as he ‘went home. One of the gentlemen on our ship was on a business trip. He got off at Rio and had to go to Victoria, a two or three day trip by a small, slow boat. The only passengers were men. The ship was close, stuffy and hot. He saw the men in their pajamas and came on deck in his. The captain came to him, tapped him on the shoul- der and said: “You must stay in your room/if you wear those.” He was surprised and called attention to the others, but the captain said: ““Yours are too short,” and he had to go and change. Men will wait at the street corner a long time rather than ride on top of a double decker or in a trailer. They follow many customs that are really good but rather irksome to Americans, who prefer comfort above punctilio. These things, however, are refinements that are worth more than mere physical comforts, and we should probably be happier and our relations better, if not more pleasant, if we would emulate them. We could do so, too, with far greater physical comfort than they. Bulldings Magnificent. The government buildings are large and magnificent. The Senate meets in one and the House in another, while, of course, the presidential man- sion is a third building. The Presi- dent, when we were there, was at Petropolis, the Summer capital in the hills across the harbor. I called with Ambassador Morgan on the minister of foreign affairs and was most gra- ciously received through Dr. Sampaio, who had been most courteous to us, and had done everything possible to make our visit to Sao Paulo pleasant. The people of these countries of every class are extremely kind, courteous and considerate. Those in official positions cannot do too much for you, and those you meet in every-day affairs are equally kind and courteous. They do things in a whole-hearted way, too. Here we laugh at the mistakes of foreigners, and especially do we show our amuse- ment at the mistakes they make in attempting to speak our language. Not so with these people. They are patient with those trying to talk with them in their own language, and no matter what mistakes are made they neither laugh nor sneer, but act in the most considerate way. A very cul- tured gentleman went with our party on a trip/one day. Apparently he could speak no English, but once during the day he sald to Mra. Jones, and he said it very clearly,”“I speak no English.” ‘We were told by one of his friends that once when visiting in England and attempting to direct a cab driver he was openly laughed at because of his poor English and that from that time on he did not attempt to speak that language. What a commentary upon the manners of those who claim to be in the forefront of civilization! (Another installment of Senator Jones' article will appear in next Sun- day’s Star) France Now Occupies Position Germany Was In After 1870 (Continued from First Page.) She feels that her own security will be per- manently compromised if France in- sists on guaranteeing Polish and Czech frontlers and vetoing, Ger- man annexation of Austria. France feels that the German prom- ise and the British guarantee are insufficlent guarantees of her safet: and that if Germany can obtain free hand to deal with Poland, with Czechoslovakia, with Austria, then a generation hence she will be strong enough to attack France in the west and the British will be unable to give her adequate protection, as they were unable in 1914, when France had for two years to carry the burden of the war in the west and fight on her own soll. Now, the British may be right; their estimate of the future trend of German mentality and policy may be correct, but there is no way of proving it in advance, and if it turned out that they were Wrong, then the ruin of France would be automatic. But, on the other hand, if France pursues her policy and continues to protect the east- ern states, it {s at least possible that within a generation these states will so0 develop in numbers and her own western frontier. wealth that there will be no longer any chance of a German' challenge. But you must see quite clearly that if this thing happens, then Ge:- many will have to abandon all hope of recovering anything like her old position; she will occupy something of the position which France filled from 1870 to 1918. She may be eco- nomically great; she may be pros- perous; but she will have to dismiss all those aspirations which inevit- ably fill the minds and hearts of peoples who feel themselves able and destined to play a great role in world affairs. But in looking objectively at the situation as it exists in consequence of the present discussion of German guarantee pacts in the west one must perceive that the course of action of each nation is determined, not by any evil or overambitions as- pirations, but by logical and inev- itable conclusions. The British do not desire to be dragged into an- other war having its origin in French championship of Polish or Czech frontiers. The Germans can no more resign the corridor than France could resign Alsace-Lorraine. The French are bound to think of their security beyond all else. And the Poles and the Czechs are just as naturally bound to seek to protect t was once so long theirs was taken from them by aggressions which have no defense in morals or in justice. 5 There is no more logic or right in the British policy, which is to defend the status quo on the Rhine, the Sarre and the Meuse, than there is in the French policy to defend what exists on the Elbe, the Vistula and the Dan- ube. Underiying both is the same single concern for self-preservation. It is, too, just as inevitable that the Germans should desire to recover Dan- zig as that the French should have resolved for half a century to recover Metz. Nor can any human being im- agine a Pole or a Czech agreeing to sacrifice his own lands that Britain or France might sleep easy o’ nights, be- cause German ambition being satis- fleld in the east German dangers to western peoples would disappear. France May Change. It is conceivable—irdeed far from improbable—that France may yet be persuaded so modify her position. I doubt {t, but there is no mistaking the extent of pacifism in France the anxiety of the existing Fren government, which in this respect seems to have the approval of the na- tion, to come to a final settlement with Germany. But up to the present time French policy has been domi- nated by the single concern for se- curity and the conviction that this security was to be found only in the preservation of the situation created by the peace treaties of 1919, which in reality means the maintenance of a strong Poland, an independent and effective Czechoslovakia, rather than to rely solely upon a German promise and a British guarantee lacking all adequate military resources behind it. For 40 years Germany denounced France for keeping the hope of re- gaining Metz, Strasbourg and Mul- house. Today France denounces Ger- many for retaining the purpose to regain Danzig, Bromberg and Katto- witz. To retain her conquests Ger- many built up a system of alliances in Europe, alliances with like-minded states—and France has done the same now. The British, who denounce French pursuit of security along the Elbe, the Danube and the Vistula and in the guarantee of the integrity of Poland and Czechoslovakla, insist that Germany shall recognize British se- curity as based upon the Scheldt, the Meuse and the Alsatian shore of the Rhine. France Rejects Proposals. And in the last analysis a compro- mise now, the creation of a situation which would be satisfactory to the British and tolerable for the German, seems to the French to offer too little real security for them and threatens the very existence of Poland and Czechoslovakia. So France has up to date rejected the British expedient of a guarantee in the west and a sort of shifting adjustment in the east, and this rejection has prevented all agree- ment. As a consequence the British criti- cize the French for maintaining their policy, designed to acquire security by a system of alliances; the Germans accuse the French of seeking to bind and restrain Germany forever, while the French criticize the British for cynical selfishness in abandoning Po- land and Czechoslovakia and imperils ing France and Belgium, and indict the Germans, charging them with de- signs to upset the whgle peace of rope by a series of attacks upon the integrity of all adjoining states, be- ginning In the east. There, in 2 nut- shell, is the present French view and the impression it creates in London and in Berlin (“opyright, 1 , by the McCly sndicate.) FIGHT TIiUY MOéEUlTO.
