terminal and the volume grows steal- fly as each train brings in additional supplies. The hundred inhabitanA of Fort McMurray are virtually a1 engaged in assisting in the move ment of the shipments.
 Many companies have their ow1 outfits moving their freight while every privately owned team that eaa be employed is on the job.
 Nearly every conceivable com modity is included in the heterogen- eous piles of freight around the ter minals, though heavy drilling machin- cry and saw mill and engine supplies are chiefly in evidence. The bulk of this tonnage must be moved to the landing on Athabasca for transporta- tion to the Arctic oil zone before warm weather softens the ice roads over the muskegs Otherwise trans portatiou will be held up until the road dries out.
 Labor at Fort McMurray is an un- certain quantity and jobs are going begging at $6 day. With the open ing of summer, however. the men now engaged in fur trapping will be available.

MINISTRY THREATENED
 BY DOMESTIC QUESTION

TOKYO May 14 (by Associated Press).-As has often happened in the ministerial history of Japan the life of the Hara ministry seemed seriously endangered by a minor do. nestle question dealing with educa- tion. The minister of education had not fulfilled a previous promise to raise certain technical schools to the grade to universities and the failure caused more protests in both houses of the Diet than perhaps any other problem before parliament. A com. promise was reached, but at this writing the anti-cabinet opposition on the school question was continuing and many predicted that it would even bring about the collapse of the ministry.

EDMONTON, Alta, May IA (by AS. sociated Press) Activity in Alberta in preparation for the spring rush to the oil fields at Port Norman is gath ering headway and the entire prov ince is in state of feverish excite
 Transportation companies are hav- ing steamers and barges built for operations on the Athabasca, Slave, Peace and Mackenzie rivers and the Great Slave lake. One company is having lumber shipped to Fort Smith, north of here oa the Slave river, for the construction of a barge, using oil burning engines. The oil would be we'll, gushing 1000 barrels an hour, was brought in recently.
 Scores of applications for charters to do business in Alberta and points north show that capital Is taking no little interest in the new field. New companies are being organized daily here and in other Canadian cities. Seventeen are reported to have been incorporated in Toronto alone, and advices from Montreal and Vancouver show equal eagerness in those places.
 By far the greatest activity is cen tered at Fort McMurray, on the Atha- basca river, north Edmonton. With fifty teams working in "A hour shifts moving stores over the twenty miles that separates Fort McMurray from the railroad, great. piles of freight are being erected, awaiting shipment into the oil country.
 A feverish energy is being dis played and more than 800 tons of freight Is piled indiscriminately on the right of way of the waterways

WARN AGAINST SPECULATINCM
 ARID PROJECT

OLYMPIA, WoSh., May, !4 (by AS. sociated Press) Official warning has been issued here against speculation in land in the Columbit basin irriga. ton project, a great reclamation plan taking definite shape.
 Dan A. Scott, state director Of con. servation and reclamation, learning that central Washington lands ere being widely advertised as a part of the irrigation project, declares that prices in some intances have been vastly inflated.
 "Men who are selling lands and using the Columbia basin project as a selling point are unfair to investors, unfair to the state, and unfair to the irrigation project" MT. Scott says. There is no present reason for inflat ed values, and purchasers should be extremely wary"
 Ultimately it is hoped to irrigate more than 100000 acres of land in the basin, but MT. Scott points out that the work may not be undertaken for years.
 Some land spectators are adver. Using in other states" he said, land entirely misrepresenting the project The gullible should learn the true sit. uation, which can be obtained by writing to the state deprtment of con- servation."

it is not necessary to memorize any date within that period"
 Important elements of European history bearing rather directly on United States history should be speci- fled, the teachers believe, as the text books available contain "such a mass of information that is not relevant" History should be treated as the "social environment of men, stress on the dates of events" for pupils in all elementary classes, the recommendations add.
 Tn view of the changes effected by the war, the teachers submit that there is a radical change in the rela- tive importance of topics which should be reflected in the course of study The present course, they point out, is overcrowded and leads to a wrong emphasis on locational geography. Geography should be re- garded as the study of "the home of man" and the industrial, conner cial, social and economic relations of man with man."
 Regarding English, the teachers propose that technical grammar be- low the "A grade should be omitted and the aim should be to habituate the children to correct structure and grammatical forms.
 Nature, the teachers set forth, as studied at present In many parts of the city is an artificial subject They recommend that regardless of locali ty, nature should be taught whenever ing, geography, science, civics and hy. giene."

Educators Ask Sweeping Changes in Elementary
 Department Of Schools

NEW YORK, May 14 (by Associat- ,d Press).-Sweeping changes in the course of study of the city's elemen- tary schools-for instance less techni. anll grammar, fewer history dates and new geography-are needed in the opinion of the New York Principals Association.
 Recommendations of the associa. 1iou passed at it's recent annual meeting, point out in detail why alter. ations in almost every subject of the school curriculum are urged. It takes this stand on the subject of history:
 "The focus should be placed cor. rectly. Our histories should be re vised by reducing the detail of the earlier epochs, and emphasizing the topics of more vital importance tc modern situations"
 History the recommendations point out, should be taught to fifth year classes, as supplementary reading rather than as history. In other grades "the study of explorers and leaders should be limited to smaller number of selected characters"
 There should be no detailed study of war;" the principals assert, "only general clauses, trend of struggle and the leaders who effected the re sults"
 Elimination of the number of dates within cycle also is proposed, fol example "it is sufficient to know the dates of the beginning and the end of the Revolutionary war but il
