Mrs. Gertrude E. Britton, a teacher
in the school; piano selections Civ
en- by small Helen Swingle which
displayed real talent and two well
given readings by Helen Johnson.
Pupils of Miss Stausson presented
a dramatization of "Arbor Day."
and the program concluded with a
talk by Superintendent E. c. Fish

public schools today He spoke of
the high efficiency that was main
tained in the schools during the
period of the war and emphasized
the fact that the same high eff
cheney is needed in time of peace.
He urged the increase in appropri-
ations for the public schols in Hi
nois calling attention to the fact
that the cost of all supplies has
greatly increased and that the tax
to meet this cost has never been
raised in the same proportion, and
up the highest standard of eff
said that it is impossible to keep
cheney and hire good teachers I'M
less the tax is increased proper
tionately.
At the business session of the as
sociation a committee was appoint

to remove shrubbery from the ends
of the Seventh avenue boulevards,
since because of this thick foliage
numerous accidents have happened
to the children in crossing the
street on the way to school. A pa

S0RCERY GRIPS THE ALASKAN
Natives Formerly Implicitly Believed
In Words and Actions Of
the Shaman. -

Shamanism. or superstition and Sor-
Gerry. always has played an important
part In the life of the Alaskan native
says the Chicago Evening Post. So
implicitly did the Alaskan of not many
years ago sbelievc in the words and
actions OF the shaman that O whole
tribe would go hungry rather than in
cur his displeasure by eating foods he
had tabooed.
The Shaman attained his position
and power by unusual methods. BY
Fasting and prayer amid the solitu,les
OF the woods or mountains, where he
fed only on grasses and roots, he pre-
pared himself to become q shamnn. By
this method it was believed the can
didate's body became sufficiently puri-
ned to become the abiding place OF
spirits.
Usually the spirit. willing to abide
with The Shaman, sent the novitiate

killed. the Otter's tongue to he pre-
served as taliSman away from hui
man view. for should 1t be seen It was
believed shaman would 60 Insane or
he turned into the animal from which
the tongue was taken.
Thus the land otter was regarded
as too sacred TO be killed by other
