Twilight is made possible by the
earth's atmosphere and its power to
refract the suns rays. Fol a certain
time after the sun has disappeared

through the earth's atmosphere at
such an angle that the light rays are
reflected and refracted.

Study of Geography in the Schools More
Important Than Ever Before
By R. M. BROWN. Rhode Island College of Education.

The study of geography in the schools is more important today than
ever before, and the present demands made upon the knowledge which
pupils should gain in the geography class are more pressing than ever
before.
A large number of American youths are entering into some business
which deals with the other parts of the earth or other parts of our own
land. Great corporations, banks and business houses are expanding their
lines to include foreign trade. Certain banks have found it necessary to
establish their own classes in geography so that their employees may have
an adequate training in the fundamentals Of this science.
The pre-war consular reports of the government spoke of the igno-
rance which American business firms displayed toward their foreign trade.
This indifference, if not Ignorance, of the American exporter toward the
physical conditions of other lands probably accounts in part for the loss
of foreign markets. The study of regional geography as now conceived
will rectify the situation.

Middleton said:
"Corliss' letters failed to camou.
