One of the worlds greatest and
least known of natural wonders Is the
Valley Of Ten Thousand Smokes near
Mount Katmai in Alaska, a brief de-
scription of which is given in the Cen
tury by Andrew ]. Stone. The valley
is volcanic depression, from which
steaming and smoking gas and lava
jets leap into the dir by the thousands,
some of them no larger than a pencil.
Sulphur flowers of every known
color and tint have been scattered by
the unrest of the internal fires along
the valley walls and floors, until look

tubes mixed by mad artist with only
a suggestion of a theme. With care one

The world made much Of the four hundredth
anniversary of Columbus great discovery: Only
Chile will celebrate this anniversary of Magellan.
Yet it may be fairly asked: Was not Magel-
lans achievement the greatest? And if it was,
Is not Magellan the greatest of navigators? o.
TO be sure, as John Fske very properly
points out, Magean's voyage has not the unique
historic position of the first voyage of Columbus,
(which brought together two streams of human
life that had been dlsjonted since the glacial

Columbus sailed to reach the "Spice islands,

had succeeded. Magellan succeeded in doing what
Columbus attempted
Before Magellan met his death in the Philip
pines he had the first of men, completed the
circle of the EARTH for before setting out on his
voyage to the west he had visited the Far East
in the service Of the Portuguese, and had passed
the meridian to which he attained n his last
voyage. While he did not live to finish his career
in triumph on the ship which finally reached
Spain, after an absence Of a few days under three
years, he had in his two voyages one to the east
and the other to the west made the circuit of the
globe.
, so Magellans voyage, considered from the
viewpoint of its scientific results, of voyage of
exploration and of test of courage and endur-
ance, seems the greatest achievement In ocean
navigation of all history.
1t is fitting that the Chieans should celebrate
this anniversary of this great navigator. Portugal,
his native land, and SPAIN, under whose fLa9 he
made the great voyage, have been invited to par
tcipate in the celebration.
There will be ceremonies both at Punta Arenas
and at the Chilean capital Santiago. A bronze
statue of Magellan will be set up. Punta Arenas

All night they dreamed of Spain.
They called the strait riuer of he'll;

For oft at cue he dipped

SALVATION ARMY
WORK IN MADISON
ADVISORY BOARD ESTABLISHED
AND OFFICERS CHOSEN.

Vigorous extension policies of the
Salvation Army were announced as a
part of the 1920 social service pro-
gram by r. H. McCluskey, field rep
resentative from the Salvation Army
office of Sioux Falls, who visited
Madison this week for the purpose
of assisting in the organization of
tion Army in Lake county. A study
of social conditions will be made by
the advisory board.

The study will cover juvenile de-
linquency, missing persons, unem-
ployment, social unrest, poverty and
illegitimacy. The Salvation Army
has institutions in the west to care
for all cases needing treatment that
fall in those classes, Mr. A. c. Cramp
being South Dakota state service
manager at Sioux Falls.
The findings of the advisory board
| will not be made public. A conf
| Dental report will be made to the
| Salvation Army.
Experienced officers will diagnose
| conditions and suggest remedies. In
cases of extreme necessity, trained
| Salvation Army workers may take
the field in person. They will su-
pervise the administration of remed-
| ial measures.
Members of the advisory board
were selected as follows: E. j. Sut-
ton, chairman; T. A. Walden, vice
! chairman; j. III. Mease, secretary
treasurer; Miss June Emery, Judge

Deadwood, July 14.-Friends in
the Black Hills have been advised of
the safe arrival at Cerro de Pauco,
Peru, of DR.. Crane, formerly of the
medical staff of the Homestake Min
ing company's hospital in the Black
Hills, who some weeks ago accepted
position as chief of the hospital
staff OF the Cerro de Pasco Mining

by the same capitalists who own the
Homestake mine.
Doctor Crane writes that when he
arrived at his destination he found
conditions as good as had been de-
scribed to him before leaving the
Black Hills, the people being pleas
ant and sociable and with every class
of Peruvians striving to show their
friendship toward him.
To reach the scene of his future
duties he had to travel through the
mountains and describes the trip as
decidedly picturesque and enjoyable.
DR.. Crane now is fitting up cottage
so his wife may join him in their
new home
A great many miners and others
had gone from the Black Hills in ad-
vance of DR.. Crane to work for the
Peruvian Mining company by which
he is employed, so the former Black
Killers can hold frequent reunions in

Vermillion, July 14.-Courses IN
public health nursing will be given
in this state this fall for the first
time. The instruction will be under
the direction of the college of medi-
cine of the University Of South Da-
kota and will consist of about six
months of study and practice.
The movement in South Dakota

sociation. The last regular session of
the Legislature enacted law empow-
ering counties, cities, etc, to raise
money for the support of public

tion then made provision for the
establishment of a six months course
of training of graduate nurses for

will end March 26, 1921; the second
will begin January a and will close
June 25, 1921.
There will be IL weeks of field
work in various counties of the state
under supervision, and IL weeks of
recitations, lectures and demonstra-
tions.
Only the graduates of accredited
| schools of nursing who have had two
years of high school work or its
equivalent are eligible. So great
| however, is the interest in the work
from the start.

ment the work of physicians. In the

anime school children, visit their
homes, talk over food, clothing and

and act as general adviser and helper
