Second. A don't give a damn attitude so far as Indian education is concerned so long as salaries hold out. So long as appropriations are made for salaries what do we care for appropriations for schooling AL askan aborigines?
 Third. Lack of confidence by the United States Congress. A feeling that money invested in educating the Native children of Alaska is i just that much thrown to the mala mutes. Apparently ignorant of con- ditions and requirements through neglect of the U. s. B. D. to pro perly function.
 Fourth. Using the Indian kids of Alaska as stepping stones to political positions No particular interest in education so long as jobs are made passably secure and of good pay
 Fifth. Lack of interest in maj ters beyond a sort of display stuff pulled for the passing traveller and no particular call for funds outside of just what this wool pulling will cost.
 Broke! Shame, shame. No money to build a decent build ing modernly lighted and heated and equipped for the little Natives who have as much right to educa tional advantages as their white l brothers and sisters. As much right did I say? Aye, and a better right, for what they had we've taken and we certainly owe them more l than back hand slap in the face in cold, gloomy, dismal, rotting down shack of a school house CD. Broke!
 The salary of oficialdom doesn't undergo any cuts. Seems to be plenty of money to pay officials. those who warm lofty perches; those who look wise; those who talk edu cation little and politics much.
 It is certainly bad enough in out of the way places where few people venture, but here in the heart Of the city where all may see, the Iiv- 1 ing quarters of the teaching staff and the school, itself, are land marks of disgrace and criminal neglect. Whats going to be done | about it? Nothing, I guess. The Division of the U. s. B. E. is broke. Has no money to put up respectable school buildings; has no money to buy fuel to keep the shacks warm Ex-Governor Bone, shortly after he left Alaska and went to the States, had an article, under his name, in The Saturday Evening Post. In this article MT. Bone didn't pay very high compliments to any of the government bureaus and he said that the United States Bureau of Education, Alaska Division was the weakest of the lot. MT. Bone had been in position where the doings of all the bureaus came more or less before him. He didn't see great deal of good in the way the U. s. B. B. carried on. And he so remarked.
 Now the Indian school, here, is practically out of fuel. There is no money to purchase coal enough n run the school year out. A re quest will come before the city l council to supply coal-on it's ao count to carry out the term. | l the coal is not provided the school will soon close.
 Broke!

much from Dr. Tigert, the Com missioner of Education, with head quarters at Washington, D. c. Tho Doctor is interested in politics first If there is any spare time he mayA at intervals, shy a thought up Al aska way. It doesn't bother him greatly, however Then, the Doc tor is much too lofty to pay much attention to just Indians. What he has to do with Indians is little. What he cares about 'em is less. As a master of education he'd make a fair cracker drummer. When he was first appointed the press, par ticularly in the West, didn't express themselves in any great gobs of |song for the successor to Commis sioner Claxton. There has been no occasion for any paeans of praise since. He is strong for the lime light, a speaker of some ability and his orbit is always in with the up- per crust of society.
 From the bureau office in Seattla  one gets the impression that there
 is much too much Tigert atmos-
 phere. Wagner fits in with Alaska Native education like a square peg fits in a round hole He has had little personal contact with the first Alaska people, doesn't appear tS have much interest and is willing apparently, to let things slide 50 long as he isn't greatly bothered. The Seattle office is a nice place in which to draw salaries. Nothing constructive of lat. come out it. It is something like a norgus

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO

"People do not think" you often hear
IL said. This Is true. The reason u
that we don't need to think.
Long before human beings did any
thinking at all they lived sort Of AMI

lutely essential to life, not even TO the
type Of human life that most people
II you examine your own daily pro-
gram and follow 1t through closely,
you win ind that you live mostly by
your instincts. habits. emotions, preju-
dices and q lot Of mechanisms that re-
quire no thinking In the strict sense OF
the term. We are social animals and
follow the crowds. We do what others
are doing. We are constantly subjected
To the law of imitation and suggestion.
We think only when we are In .
tight place-when the rent Is due and
we have not the money TO pay. when

means going over In the mind the vari-
Gus possibilities for the solution OF

Thinking has untold uses and there

How Much Water
Should BabyGet!
"A Famous Authority's Rule
by Ruth Britain

Baby specialists agree, nowadays,
that during the first six months,
babies must have three ounces of
fluid per pound of body weight daily.
An eight pound baby, for instance,
needs tWenty-four ounces of fluid.
Later on the rule is two ounces Of
fluid per pound Of body weight. The
amount Of fluid absorbed by breast
fed baby is best determined by
weighing him before and after feed
ing for the whole day; and il is
easily calculated for the bottle fed
one. Then make up any deficiency
with water.
Giving baby sufficient water often
relieves his feverish, crying, upset
and restless spells. if il doesn't give
him a few drops of Fletcher's Cas-
toria. For these and other ills Of
