* • THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1920 THANK YOU! HAITI: MAGIC ISLE OF THE INDIES Picture an island more wonderful, more beautiful and more richly en- dowed by nature even than the fabled tales that medieval mariners loved to dream about; a country of pleasant peaks, charming vales and fertile ; plain*; an idyllic land set in a summer sea. Picture then a land where the ava- rice of conquerors, ruthlessly exploit- ing, has blasted promises of progress; where the passions of men have run riot; where tyrant after tyrant, some great, some petty, have waded to power through pools of blood; a land from which the gods of peace and in- dustry seem to have turned away. Both are pictures of Haiti, the rela- tions between which country and the United States are now under discus- sion. To avoid confusion It must be ex- plained at the outset that the name Haiti is used sometimes to denote the entire island, which is the second larg- est' lahd mass in the West Indies, sometimes to denote merely the Re- public of Haiti, which occupies the western third of its area. The possi- bilities of confusion are Increased by the fact that the island is also known as Santo Domingo and San Domingo, names applied likewise to the Domini- can Republic, which occupies the east- ern two-thirds of the land unit The name Haiti is much used be- cause it was the descriptive term, meaning "high land," given to the island by Its aborigines. This was the favorite island of the West Indies to Columbus, who reserved for it the most complimentary name bestowed on the lands which he discoveredâ€"Hlspan- lola, "little Spain." Something of the Impression which this beautiful and promising Island made on the great discoverer can be gleaned from his reference to It as a "Garden of Eden," and from the fact that he named the point at which he first set foot In Haiti. December 6, 1492, "the Vale of Paradise." History has been prodigal to the Island of Haiti and has crowded one Interesting and tragic event after an- other Into the relatively short span of years stace the eyes of white men first beheld Its towering peaks. On Its northern coaat, near the present Cape Kaitlen, the Santa Marls, which bore Oolumbus to the new world, was wrecked on Christmas eve, 1482, and frees Its broken, historic boards was set up by the crew the first structure erected by Europeans In the western hemisphere. This was the fortress of Navldad, in which the men of the Santa Maria were killed while Colum- bus was on his return voyage to Spain ' ;te report his epoch-making discovery >of "the Indies." Farther to the east on the northern coast of the Island Columbus built on his return the first white settlement in tiie new world, naming the little town "Isabella" for the queen who had made his voyage of discovery possible. On this second trip Columbus brought with him to his magic Isle a great fleet bearing a large force of soldiers and ^adventurers. After defeating the na- .tlves the conquerors journeyed to the jsouth coast and there laid the foun- dations of the city of Santo Domingo- first permanent city established by Eu- ropeans in America, for many years the most Important outpost of western civilization, and forerunner of the countless cities and villages that are the seats today of the industry, com- merce and culture of the three Amer- icas.

Chairman Publicity Committee, Oak Park is Humbled In Soccer; Score 2-1 North Shore Boys. Triumph Over Bitter Rivals for First Time in several Seasons For the first time in recent years Oak Park's soccer team has been forced to accept the smaller end of a score. The upset occurred last Saturday morning at New Trier when the New Trier eleven defeated the unbeaten visitors 2 to 1, thereby go- ing into a tie for the Suburban title with the Oak Parkers. The contest was a scrappy one throughout.- Within the first five minutes the home team rang up their two points of the game and then set to work holding the visitors at the same time endeavoring to add a couple more markers to their own total. They failed to repeat as the Oak Park team' held at the critical moments. Just before the curtain rang for the first half Hahn of Oak Park placed the ball in the New Trier net, scoring his team's only tally. The New Trier team was hard pressed several times in the second half but excellent team work saved the day. New Trier owes much of its suc- cess in soccer to Coach Jack Pater- son, who has been threatening the westsiders for several seasons but was unable to rtop their rush until Saturday. s~~Sh 'â- > '-â- â- * '-*"' The play-off game Will be staged soon and it is the hope of every north shore sport follower to see the 1920 soccer shield arranged beside the nineteen other similar emblems'of athletic prowess in the school as- sembly hall. The height of the heels on shoes worflf by Medieval Venetians indi- cated the rank of the wearer.
