' ' ll ISLAND OF SAIiA

Mr. A Myatt Ver1etecrill devotes 'a
chapter in his fascinat•iug book, 'Is -
lauds and Their Mysteries," to de-
seribing the paradca;ical isialttt bouxe
of the Sabans, the Iautch-people who
dwell in a volcano in the West indica..
This island is so small that it is
represented on most maps as a tiny
speck without any name, between the
British island of St, Kitts sad the
American island of St. Croix,
It is only five miles in diameter;
and one might look in vain for a'
landing place on the cliffs, which rifle
a thousand feet sheer from the sea,
were it not for a small building fly-
ing the Dutch flag and perched on: a
ledge of rock. The cliffs gradually
taper in an enormous cone to a sum-
mit nearly six thousand feet above
the sea.
On the calmest day it is not easy
to make a landing, but even when one
has succeeded in reaching the beach
the difficulties are not ended.
A path consisting of sloping
stretches and about eight hundred ir-
regular stone steps, known to the in-
habitants as "the ladder," stretches
upwards, and one has to climb this
to reach the summit.

Mr. Littleproud spoke very highly
of the co-operation being given by the
principal and the staff at the local
school. "The teachers realize that in
developing citizenship it is as neces-
sary to teach truthfulness, courtesy,
honesty and thrift, as it is to teach
arithmetic, literature and spelling",
said the inspector. "The result is they
are encouraging the pupils, to open
accounts. One hundred and fifty-five
pupils made deposits on Tuesday, tot-
alling sixty-six dollars and ninety-one
cents. This is an excellent beginn-
ing."
