About the mouths of the streams on
which salmon camps are situated the
Indian dogs and children amuse them
selves catching the fish Some of the
youngsters are so small that after they
have succeeded in cornering fish
the combined efforts of the party are
often required to dispatch 1t and carry
1T to camp. | have watched dogs run
ming about in a rift swapping at the
salmon and apparently having the time
of their lives.
One Of the most amusing sights that
I saw during my stay in Alaska was
two Indian boys being towed about
the harbor at Kadiak by huge hall
but they had just hooked Utterly un-
able to land the fish, they had fastened
the line to the stern of the boat. and
while they pulled with all their might.

an Indian put out in a boat, and the

In the number of the Taller for Oct.

prevalent that 'priggishness' is a

In the number of Nov. Is rural

prototype of one of the pavement nui-

an unreasonable distance from his

And under date of Dec. there is an
amusing sketch of "a lively, fresh col

A Wedding Superstition.

Itshas been considered unlucky tc be
married in May ever since the days of
Ovid. and those people who have spent
their time in looking up roots and
reasons have given what they consider
to be the origin of the superstition as
follows:
In ancient Rome there was held in
May a festival called the Lemuria, or
feast of the Lemures, which was a
ceremony In honor of the speeches of
departed souls. 1t became with the
Romans what we should call bad
form to have matrimonial feasts at
the season of solemn ritual. being no
doubt thought to be an insult to the
dead to marry at such time. From
this a number of stories grew Of the
revenge made by the outraged ghosts
upon those who dared to disregard
them. and IL anything unfortunate hap
pened to couple who had been mar
ried in May it would, OF course, have
been put down to retribution SO the
tradition of i'll luck arose. and its in-
fiuence has lasted ever since. even to
our time

NATURAL. ,Iies to get the student to
take the more expensive courses. Too
frequently the young man who has had
insufficient elementary training is IN
duced to take courses for which he has
not had adequate preparation. After
taking few lessons, and trying to
deal with technical terms with which
he is entirely unacquainted, he gives
up the work in despair He not only
loses his money, but he also loses his
courage. He has heard that John Smith
has taken a course similar to the one
undertaken by himself, and has been
successful in his studies, and he feels
that his failure is due to lack of men
tai grasp, when. in fact, it is due only
to his endeavor to study some subject
for which he has not had sufficient ele-
mentary training.
The University Plan.
The University works in an alto
gether different way. 1t learns the
educational status of the student by
careful examination Whenever
possible in the larger communities It
tries to gather number of students
who are interested in studying the
SdIIiG Topics. w lille Tie Sluucul III thc
ordinary correspondence school Is iso-
lated the correspondent student of the
University has the opportunity of meet
ing weekly with others who are study
ing the same subject
Occasionally an instructor from the
University meets these students in
their classes and explains the difficult
ties which they have met as directly
as the work done in the University;
In some of the large manufacturing esq
adjustments aof the state the instruc-
tors meet the classes fortnightly and
the results have been so remarkable
in the way of arousing enthusiasm
and imparting knowledge that the
owners of the plants have provided
class rooms for their employees in which
to do this work, and have given their
employees the time in which to do it.
It is already evident that this plan of
work will revolutionize the methods OF
technical education in many manufac-
turing lines.

FURNISHED BY
UNIVERSITY
Literature on Important Questions
Given to Public by Ex-
tension Division.

The University of Wisconsin through
its University Extension Division gath
ers and lends material for the study
and discussion of all the important
questions and topics of the day. The
great questions which must be de-
cided by the nation or the state, and
those which must be settled by city
councils and town and county boards
are all within the province of this di-
vision. Questions which are important
to fathers and mothers and home ma
kers, civic leagues and Improvement
associations, or organizations of bust
ness and professional men are inves-
tigated by the Extension Division in
order that it may help others to in
vestigate them. The books, articles,
reports, references. and other material
which it gathers for its own investi-
cation will be loaned, without cost, to
official and unofficial organizations.
When possible the University Exten-
sion Division will borrow and lend to
all students and official organizations,
books from the University, state and
national libraries which are essential
to the wide study of important ques-
lions. 1t will direct inquiries to the
best sources of information, to federal
and state departments, to national and
state institutions. to men and women
who have special knowledge
For century after century, genera
ton after generation, cities, states and
universities have gathered material for
their libraries which have been easily
accessible only to those who could
come to them to study. The Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, always unusually
liberal in aiding citizens of the state
who wish to consult its literary treas
ures, will use the most direct means
of employing the material which it has
gathered and which the state depart
ments have secured for the instruction
and education of all the people of the
state
For century after century, generation
after generation, the men who have
had the leisure and the means to in
vestigate subjects carefully have given
their time largely to studies in history,
ant literature. in pure science, and
have held themselves and their work
aloof from the masses of the people.

Practical Work of the University OF
Wisconsin.

The University of Wisconsin has
encouraged its instructors and investi-
gators to use their time and oppor-
tunities. their libraries, and their lands
and buildings in the invest CATION Of
subjects which could be used to aid
all of the people of the state. Such
work as Professor Babc0ck did in in
venting aud perfecting methods Of
handling milk, methods which have
lightened the labor and increased the
comfort of the housewives and their
families in every rural home in Wis
consin has been the ideal Of the re-
search work done. at the University of
Wisconsin.
It has been unfortunately true. how
ever. that frequently the results of
these Investigations have been years.
and ofttimes generation, in reaching
the people who could make the best
practical use Of them To overcome
this. the University of Wisconsin has
organized the University Extension
Division. whose purpose it is to train
men and instructors to use the most
effective means of spreading this in
formation among the people, and
arousing their interest in its study. To
do this work it is necessary that
methods of advertising should be used
which are as direct as those used
by the merchants and manufacturers.
1t is necessary that a large number
of intelligent people should assist the
University in making known its de-
sires ard spreading informasion in re-
gard to its methods.

PRACTICAL
Z ROAD MAKING
University Extension Trains Highway
Officials to Make. Good
Roads.

One of the most popular and profit
able courses given by the University
Extension Division of the University
Of Wisconsin is that in Highway Con-
struction. The purpose of this course
is to give highway officials, and others
who have the responsibility Of build
ing and maintaining public roads in
the state, an opportunity to acquire a
thorough and up-tO-date knowledge of
the best material and best methods to
be employed in their work. Hereto
fore, many of the officials charged
with road construction, and road
maintenance, have been obliged to de-
pend largely upon the experience of
the people in their own town. These
practices and experiences are natural
~ limited. The local knowledge has
not been broad and complete enough,
and enormous sums of public money
have been wasted.
While this course was not given
until January, 1908, the results have
already become apparent in many
parts of the state in the better use Of
the money given for highway con-
struction. Citizens and public officials
of Wisconsin who have charge of the
work of making roads in the state are
taught, without fee, and are charged
only the bare cost of the materials
which are used in correspondence,
amounting to but rs cents. The course
consists of sixteen lessons.
After discussing the primary con-
sideration of proper road location,
road building is taken up. Under this
head are considered three elements
which enter into the making of a
road; foundation, drainage and sur
face. These three things are very
thoroughly studied Road mainte-
nance is also very carefully studied
A searching study is made of the
various kinds of road machinery
points of efficiency and economy in
general as well as the merits and de-
fects of any particular machine When
one considers the enormous sum Of
money that has been wasted in Wis
consin in the building of roads and
the other wasteages which have re-
suited from bad roads. it seems diff
cult to estimate the. value of this
direct and practical method of aiding
the people of the state. 1t is but
another Illustration however, of the
direct and efficient ways in which the
University is endeavOriDg to help the
people of the state, upon whom it has
relied and must rely for its support.

Great Lovers Of Water.

The Siamese are more devoted to the
water than any other nation in the
world. They are nearly always bath
ing, generally with their clothes on,
and they never go anywhere by land
if they can possibly go by water The
streets of Bangkok are like those of
Venice, and the inhabitants say that
their idea of paradise would be a town
in both directions, so that they might
be spared the effort of rowing.

Sydney Smiths idea that every fine

trout, whereas it ought to be day on
which it is possible for the active
body to do nothing, and do it well,
and for the active mind to be idle with
