The Chilean government has re.
quested that vessels passing through
the Straits of Magellan shall report
their nationality. name, and official
number by means Of signals on pass
ing the lighthouses at Dungeness,
Punta Delgada, San Isidro. and Los
EVangelistas or any other light
house on the Straits which may ask
for the information. The announce
ment of the ports OF departure and
destination are also desirable. The
information thus obtained will be
kept by the Chilean government for
the Information of shipowners and
others throughout the world. Of. late
years several steamers notably the
German cargo steamer "Aciliap have
been reported missing for months.
The Chilean government has no def
mite knowledge wksther this steamer
or several other missing ships passed
the Straits or not. The reports now
asked for would lessen the radius of
search for missing vessels, save con-
ferable expense to shipowners, and

DECLINE OF GOOD READING
Point Made at Educational Association
Convention Would Seem to Be
Well Taken.

The central importance OF reading
was the theme Of much Of the discus
sion at the recent convention Of the
National Educational association at
Salt Lake City. Mr.. Rice, state IL
brary clerk of Wisconsin, told how
that state prepares lists OF suitable
books for rural Libraries, and offers
the books at 31.7 per cent. discount.
II also requires teachers to pass an
examination in library training, which
Mr.. Rice considers more important
that algebra, though the comparison
seems odd. Mr.. Caxton, United States
commissioner OF education, who fol
lowed, declared literature the most
important OF all school subjects, and
observed that any man who will read
thoughtfully four good books a year
Will be q well-educated man by the
time he has read 100. That may de-
pend somewhat on the books, for not
all good books reward that kind OF
reading. though tho creates. usually
do.
II is. at any rate. kind OF reading
too much out of fashion nowadays,
mainly because there is so much to
read that 1t is difficult TO let the mass
go and concentrate on one author. one
book. one page. one word A fine old
