ALASKA INDIANS CANNOT
 GRASP CIVILIZATION

The Thlinket Indians of Southeast
 ern Alaska, having abandoned the old tribal way of living find themselves unable to grasp in a generation q modern civilization thrust upon them, explained Miss Carlotte Doren, for seven years an educator among the Northern natives in a lecture in Se- attle recently.
 "Here is woman without place in the world" said Miss Doren, as she flashed a picture on the screen. "She is primitive and is unable to grasp all at once the civilization which it has requireu centuries of evolution for other races to accomplish session before the inhabitants were Miss Doren unfolded the quaint life of the Thlinket Indians in the vil- jlages of Alaska. The colonizing Rus sians, she said, have had a not alto Igether desirable effect ol the life of the Indians. Many of the quaint In- dian customs, the erection of totem
 poles, and the feasts of the potlatch. have passed away with the invasion
 of the white men, she related. She
 blamed the early settlers from the
 United States for some of the deplor- able practices formed among the na- tives.
 "It is unfair to assume that be- cause the Indian cannot speak En-
 glish he is not intelligent" she assert ed, "or that because he seems poor
 he will always remain so, or that be- cause his race seems to be dying that lit is dying"

Gettina Into . Scrape.

Many years ago the wild deer that roamed through the forests of England used to dig holes in the earth with their forefeet. They paved it out sometimes to the depth of several inches. sometimes a foot or more These holes were called "scrapes." and travellers at dusk or night or those who were careless about their footing often tumbled into them. They were laugh ed at for their heedlessness when they came home covered with mud, and as this frequently occurred after they had been imbibing bit they were said to have "got into scrape" Some Cam bridge students took up this expres' sion. and thus it came to be applied to people who had got into difficulties of various sorts.

The First Bomb.

The bomb came into being during the troublous times in France toward the close of the eighteenth century. Its inventor was French fanatic named Chevalier, who had conceived such all intense hatred of Napoleon that he de termined to kill him.
 Being employed at government small arms factory, he had gained some knowledge of explosives, and with this knowledge he managed to construct q bomb out of q barrel. which he filled with mixture of powder, bullets. bro ken glass and white arsenic.
 Chevalier's idea was for. the bomb to explode under Napoleon's carriage as it passed through the streets of Paris A miscalculation. however, caused it to go off few seconds too soon.
 Had Chevalier succeeded in his ob. ject the whole history of Europe would of course have been changed.-Pear- sons Weekly.
