ALASKA NA I |VES ARE MAKING
 PROGRESS

WASHINGTON, Sept 9, - To fit the natives of Alaska in a practical way to meet the bewildering condi- tions forced upon them by the white mens complex civilization - this has been the policy, especially during the past three years of the department of the interior through it's bureau of edu- cation. It is well known that Secre- tary Lane takes a special interest in all Alaskan matters.
 Practical education is emphasized In the school rooms of Alaska such instruction is given as will enable the natives to live comfortably and to deal intelligentIy with those with whom they come in contact Carpen- try. cooking and sewing are promi- nent subjects of instruction, together with English and elementary arithme- tic The school work is connected directly with community life.
 Children and older men and wom- en are encouraged and directed in gardening and many of them grow considerable quantities of vegetables Most of the school buildings contain, in addition to the recitation rooms, workshop kitchen, laundry and bath room. Sanitary methods of living are impressed upon the natives; the na- tives are urged to replace their filthy huts by neat. well ventilated houses. In some sections the natives have been taught how to raise vegetables. these forming healthful addition to the usual diet of fish and meat.
 The government teacher in Alaska is not merely a teacher of academic subjects but leader and guide in the life of the community.

LIVELY TOWN |S CORDOVA, SAYS
 DR. COE

"When | see a city of 1000 people where a couple of million dollars worth of raw materials is shipped every month, I can at once point out a live, ly burg" said Wr H. Waldo Coe, su, perintendent of the Morningside sani. tarium at Portland, who is a C0rdova visitor.
 AS well might Portland complain at the growth of Salem, Eugene or Medford, as one here to wonder what is to occur should good town grow up on the line of the C. R. X N. W. railroad. These towns back of Port land help build up that city, because Portland is the shipping port of the Willamette valley. In a like manner are improvements back of COrdoVa go- ing to build up this city. The more money that is spent on the line back of Cordova, the more prosperous and greater will grow your city. This same condition applies to some other ocean lying points of Alaska, back of which lie regions rich in natural re- sources"
 Dr. Coe. with his wife. have been taking in Alaska by slow stages, visit ing as far north as Anchorage, looking up friends and relatives, so far as they could find them, of insane patients at Morningside, where the insane of Alaska are cared for.
 Dr. Coe has charge of this service in his own institution. where already ten buildings enter into the equip ment and where work is now in pro gress upon an additional building for men, 5Ox120. which Dr Coe says will relieve the crowding there and permit the addition of some newer things in treatment.
 Dr. Coe says that he has had a very pleasant trip through Alaska, and has been treated with courtesy and con sideration, and that he plans an an nual trip hereafter, to be made to this country.
 He said that he is pleased to find that the government reports have ap parently settled in the minds of Alas kans a conviction that the patients are being kindly treated at Morning side.
 Dr. and Mrs. Coe took a trip over the (. R. & \. W. railroad to the gla ciers This is the second trip recent ly made to Cordova by Dr. Coe.

THOUSAND STEAM JETS PLAY NEAR
 KATMA|

Prof. R. F. Griggs, of the University of Ohio, who has just returned from visit to Katmia volcano, accompan- jed by D. E. Church. a student at the university. who took the pictures for an article to appear in the National Geographic Magazine.
 Verifying reports recently received from Kodiak, Professor Griggs says the Katmai volcano and surrounding craters surpass anything seen in any other part of the world.
 The great crater, three miles long by one mile wide, is a record breaker in itself, but even more terrifying than this is valley 10 miles long and three wide, discovered a few miles northwest of the crater, with a thou sand steam jets playing from cracks which crisscross the valley floor in all directions.
 The OdOr of sulphur is strong in the air and at times almost overpowering, according to Griggs. He had with him pictures of the Katmai crater noun tain, flats near by and the valley with the steam jets
 Last year the Katmai valley was swept by a flood, when a lake broke which had been caused by the dam ming up of branch of the stream, said Griggs. "The high water mark on the rim shows that it swept toward the sea 40 to 60 feet deep in a valley a mile wide"

SOLDIERS LE ARN SPANISH FROM
 NEWSBOYS

FL PASO, Sept, 2. - Supper was oyer and score of national guards, men encamped on the outskirts of Fl Paso were taking their daily Spanish lesson. Without desks. books. paper or pencils they set on the desert sand hedged in by clumps of mesquite. while a half dozen ragged Mexican newsboys gave them their lesson.
 It is thus that many of the guards men on station here are learning to speak Spanish. In the camps of the Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Michi- gan, Rhode Island and South Carolina contingents the newsboys may be seen teaching their soldier pupils almost every evening.
 Many of the youngsters, all of whom speak both English and Spanish, are homeless, having been orphaned by the civil strife which has torn Mexico for the last five years. Some of them have been adopted by the militiamen as mascots and are fed in the com pany kitchens and in return they run errands and teach their guardians Spanish when they are not peddling newspapers.
 The method of instruction is simple A guardsman will point out an object and one of the instructors will give its Spanish name The soldier will repeat this until he has fixed it in his mind Thus a vocabulary. as a basis for a later study of the language is acquired. Once the vocabulary is obtained the student is ready 10 buy a book and begin the study of the gram, mar.
 "It isn't a very elegant way to learn the language" one graduate of the newsboy school" who is now strug, gIing with Spanish verbs, said. but is practical"
