SAYS OIL DEVELOPMENT
 WILL CAUSE STAMPEDE

TACOMA, Feb. 19.-On the rugged splinter of land known as the Alaska peninsula, which separates Boring Sea from the warm waters of the Pacific, an important oil development is going on, which, if successful, it is predicted, will cause a stampede eclipsing that of the Klondyke.
 w. L. Keyser, veteran Alaska trav- eler, said here that two large Amer ican oil companies are now drilling on Cold Bay, on the peninsula across from Kadiak Island
 up to short time ago this region was almost uninhabited," he said. "But when I left four townsites were al ready laid out on Portage Bay and one of them, Kanatak, had developed to the extent of a postoffice, stores and other facilities"
 The oil district, MT. Keyser said, is reached by steamers from Seward and Kodiak to Portage Bay. Travel, he said, has developed to such an ex- tent that the fare from Kadiak to Cold Bay is now only $22.50, whereas his first trip cost him $900.

COLLEGE DEAN DECLARES MUSIC BEATS ARITHMETIC

TACOMA, Feb 19.-Music has more practical value to the average college student than mathematics, according to Frederick K. Bolton, dean of the college of education of the University of Washington, in an address criti- cizing subjects taught in schools and colleges today. How many of you ever had occasion to use a quadratic equation?" he asked.
 Every student should be taught some of the fundamentals of various subjects in short course, Dean Bolton said, and then be permitted to follow his own inclinations toward science, art, literature or the professions.
 Latin and modern languages, as compulsory subjects, were also criti- cized by the educator.
