How do I split a string using Smalltalk using space as the delimiter

I have string like "Hello World". I need to split this string to Hello, World`` using space delimiter in Smalltalk.

In Java the code looks as follows 

 String message = "Hello world"
 message.split(' ');

How do I do this in Smalltalk?

in a very buggy version of smalltalk on another site, this works but spliton does not.

s := 'Hello World' substrings '\n'.
n := s at: 2.

Transcript show: 's at 2='.
Transcript show: n.
Transcript show: ''; cr.

Closer to Java:

'Hello World' splitOn: Character space.

also works with:

'Hello World' splitOn: ' '.

or (more funky):

[ :each | each isSeparator  ] split: 'Hello World'.

'Hello World' splitOn: [ :each | each isSeparator  ].

| message parts |
message := 'Hello world'.
parts := message substrings. "this is an array"
Transcript
  show: parts first;
  show: parts last

Or to define delimiter: message substrings: ' '
