THE AMERICAN IDEA
IN THE FAR EAST

(By Nicholas Russell, NJ d. in the
Mindanao p l., Herald.)
When a man begins to do his own
thinking, the world that confronts
him presents itself as a chaotic mass
of contradictory, seemingly uncoor.
dinable, inextricably entagled facts
and phenomena. The completely daz.
zles him and all understanding looks
hopeless. By long and patient study,
however, he arrives at the discovery
of certain similarities among various
groups of observations admitting OF
generalization. Further on he sue.
ceeds to lay bare certain fundG mental
ideas and laws lying behind this chaos
and governing the whole process.
This equally applies to the domain
OF elemental nature as to the world
of man himself
Has human history as a whole, as
well as in it's parts, any sense, any
definite goal, or is it merely a con
nict of chance events without any
meaning at the end? All these kings
dynasties, wars, bloodshed, rivers OF
tears and mounts of suffering peri
odical dashes towards sublime light
and relspses into the abyss of barba
IRISH, all these nascent, growing and
crumbling civilizations, what are they
for, what sense have they, if any?
Not more than fifty years ago the
wisest thinkers would have answered
this question by shaking their heads
and referring to Providence. Now
after the last half century of the most
wonderful scientific advance in all di
rections | think we can state with
some certainty: Yes. it has the sense
the meaning and the goal They are
in the gradual evo ution of higher ant
higher forms of individual and socia
organize tions eliminating in the crea

RAISED FORESTERS

BAGUIO, p. l., March 27.-GrGdu-
ate students Of the school of forestry
established at Los Banos in connec-
ton with the college of agriculture
will be available for appointment in
the bureau of forestry within short
time as probational rangers. There
were seventeen students graduated in

had in two years time, following which
they will receive positions in the bu-

A tentative list of assignments pre-

DOC OUGHT TO SHARE HONOR WTTH AMUNDSEN AND PEARY

We there are ever to be monuments
to the first living beings to set
foot at the north and south poles
Of the earth they won't be Of
Peary or Amundsen, the negro or Bski-
mo companions Of the former, or the
Norwegian assistants Of the latter. On
the top Of the memorials will be the
figures Of dogs, rough coated, savage
CANNES. They got to the poles first, In
advance Of their human companions.
and tho honors should be theirs.
Both Peary and Amundsen have &C
knowledged their obligations to the
haulers OF the sledges which made pole
finding possible. The antarctic hero
voices his feelings thus, in his copy
righted story Of his dash to 90 degrees
south:
Il attribute my success TO my splen-
/ did comrades and to the magnificent
work OF the dogs, and next to them to
our skis"
Speaking of one days work on his
I triumphal procession to the pole, with
four human companions, four sledges
and ffty-two dogs, Amundsen wrote:
"The glacier was very much broken
! in this comparatively narrow pass. The
mighty crevices seemed to stop us from
going farther, but 1t was not so serious
as It appeared. Our dogs, which up to
this time had covered a distance of
about 700 kilometers, the last days very
hard work, ran this day thirty fve kilo-
meters, the ascent being $500 feet, an
almost incredible record"
Turning to the northern end OF the
world, we ind Nansen, the famous fell
low countryman Of Amundsen, paying
tribute to the polar dogs in the follow
ing terms:
Il kept an anxious eye upon the dogs
for fear anything should happen to
them, also to see that they continued in
good condition, for all my hopes CEN
tered in them"
In Peary's book, 1.-THE North Pole" he
pays this tribute to his dogs:
"They are sturdy, magnificent anil
mails. There may be larger dogs than
these, there may be handsomer dogs,
but I doubt 1t. other dogs may work
as well or travel as fast and far when
fully fed, but there is no dog in the
world that can work so long in the
lowest temperatures on practically
nothing to eat. The male dogs average
in weight from eighty to a hundred
pounds, though had one which weigh
ed 1875 pounds, The females are some
what smaller. Their special physical
characteristics are a pointed muzzle
great breadth between eyes sharp
pointed ears, very heavy coat under
laid with a thick, soft fur, powerful
heavily muscled legs and a bushy tail
or brush similar to that of a fox. There
is only one breed of Eskimo dogs but
they are variously marked and OF diff.
ferent colors-black, white, gray. yell

fists believe that they are direct de

SECRETARY WORCESTER MAKES
RECORD INSPECTION JOURNEY

BAGUIO, p. l., March 26.-On the
inspection trip through the Mountain
province just completed by Secretary
Dean c. Worcester, of the department
of the interior, q record of 665 miles
continuous travel on horseback and
100 miles by automobile over the mag
nificent trails and roads in the noun
tains was made. Every known medium
of transportation was used by the
members Of the party, except the aero
plane. Flying machines would, how
ever, be valuable means of travel
in many parts OF the Mountain pro
vince The ladies Of the party were
carried in chairs by Qgorot carga-
dores over some of the trails. Where
the trails would permit they often
rode in quilezes. After the horses
taken by the party were left at Ban
gued native ponies were used. Mr..
Worcester drove a blackboard at one
time on the trip and the trip down the
Abra river was made on raft. From
Vigan the party was taken to Tagudin
and San Fabian on the coast guard
cutter Polillo, connecting at San Fa.
balm with the railway.
Secretary Worcester visited the pro.
vince of Nueva Vizcaya, and the sub.
provinces of Ifugao, Bontoc, Kalinga,
Lepanto, Abra and Apayao. In an in.
terview given out today Mr.. Worcester
stated that he found conditions every.
where in the Mountain province ex
tremely satisfactory.
Bloody Row Averted.
OF al the mountain tribes the Hon
gotes have been the hardest to get
along with administratively, as there
are but a few thousand of them com
pared with the other non-Christian
into the Ilongot country with foot
paths diverging from it so that the
people will be brought into closer in
tercourse. The largest and most rep
resentative crowd of these people ever
assembled met Mr.. Worcester at Cam
pote, which is neutral ground. But
one disagreeable incident married the
meeting. On the second night after
the arrival of Mr.. Worcester and his
party man was lsnced by one of the
parties to an old feud. The Other
men of his tribe Immediately formed &
circle with spears unsheathed but as
his would was only trifling they soor
quieted down.

Where Salt is Golden.

In Nueva Vizcaya Mr.. Worcester
found that there has been very great
progress in road and trail construc-
tion during the past year, At Salinas,
where the famous salt spring is locat-
ed, the provincial government has
built an evaporator that is making salt
for many thousands of the hill people
and cut the price of this food staple
to one-third. At Tagudin, situated at
the mouth of the Ambaran river, an
other salt making enterprise is being
put in. The river brings down from
the mountains great drifts OF wood
which form a permanent supply OF
fuel if collected. over 1000 cords of
wood have been piled up at the plant,
which evaporates sea water. Salt from
this plant is sent into Bontoc and
Kslinga, which cannot be supplied
cheaply from Salinas owing to ex-
pensive transportation. Salt is so
scarce in the mountains that the
tribesmen virtually mob one another
for small quantities of it.
. Moving Pictures Make Excitement.
Great interest was aroused among
the big crowds of hill men who at.
tended the csnaos by stereopticon
views of scenes from all over the
world and moving pictures thrown on
large screens put up in the p'azas OF
the main towns visited. For the first
time Mr.. Worcester carried a portable
cinematograph on his annual trip OF
inspection, which has become a not
able event among the wild tribesmen
The moving picture machine has e
small dynamo and oil engine for its
light and an adjustment for lantern
slides. Mr.. Worcester carried a set
of colored slides showing many of the
fine public buildings of the national
capital at Washington, including the
White House. scenes at Niagara falls
skyscrapers of New York City, the
Brooklyn bridge. destructive fires
snow and ice, and a fine collection o.
his own pictures taken on former trips
through the interior of the Mountain
province. When cnieftans now deat
were thrown on the screen intense
excitement would prevail The films
put on by the cinematograph would
elicit yells of applause or consterna
ton when horles of a railway trair
rushed to the foreground in the pic

LET THE PARADE
GO It ALONE

Next years Floral Parade will pos
sibly be conducted entirely separate
from the Promotion Commi,teo. A
number of the members Of the or
canization were desisous OF divorclng
the parade a year ago, but the ma
jority felt that, because the promo
tionists had originated and built up
the institution, it should still stand
sponsor for it.
However, the members of the rub-
Lefty body are beginning to feel that
the parade is coming to be a cal
handicap to its endeavors. In speak
ing of the matter one member re-
Gently put it in these words:
The Floral Parade is a big asset,
but it is established now and ought to
pay its own way When the promo
ton committee solicits funds for fin
ancing the parade, it makes it that
much harder for us to keep up oar
for regular work. Bust
ness men cannot distinguish between
paying money to the committee for
the floral parade and paying it to the
for other work-its money
for promotion. The Parade should be
organized itself and arrange its pro-
gram so as to make a revenue su6i-
Gent for its needs, simply calling on
the merchants for a guarantee in case
bad weather or other unforeseen din.
Guilty interferes with arrangements"
Arthur F. Wall, director of the par
ade for the past two seasons, VIII
have his report for the last parade
in tomorrow. Mr., Wall believes that
the Parade should be Incorporated and
handle its own affairs The matter
will probably be taken up at the next
Of the Promotion Committee.
