Gould Says Climate Once Tropical.
DIR. Lawrence Gould geologist of the

him that the Antarctic until compare
lively recent years had either had
tropical or subtropical climate. DR..
Gould said he had determined, further,
that the Great Barrier was q floating

many more miles eastward than first
supposed. and that the Queen Maude
range Of mountains was the greatest
In the world and unlike either the Him

block type, he said, and on them were
found two of the worlds largest Sla-

The possibility Of establishing weather
stations in the Antarctic to make fore
casts was not believed practical by Me-
teoroligist Haines Of the expedition,
who said too many stations would be
necessary, making the expense too great
for practical purposes. Forecasts from
the Antarctic, however, he said, would
be useful to South America, and man
could live there indefinitely with the

WHITE BLUFFS WOMAN
HAS DELIGHTFUL TRIP

"It was like little heaven let down
before you; I never beheld anything
so beautiful" This was the way Mrs.
M. S. Meeks summed up her impress
sions of the Butchardt gardens on
Todd Inlet at Victoria, B. c. when
she described them to her friends
upon her return from a months abb
sence, two weeks of which were spent
on the Coast.
With the F. D. Clen1mer family of
Yakima, Mrs. Meeks left Eastern
Washington about the middle of June,
driving first to Seattle to see Francis
Clemmer, her nephew, aboard ship for
Hawaii, where he has a government
position that will keep him there in
definitely. From Seattle the party
went to Anacortes, where they spent
four days at the home of Edgar Sher-
wood, brother of Mrs Meeks ana
Mrs. Clemmer. In that city the big
Single mills and also the paper pulp
mills were found very interesting.
Two days were spent in Bellingham,
from where they went on up into
British Columbia, visiting Vancouver
and Victoria, from the latter place
making the trip to the Gardens that
SO excited Mrs. Meeks admiration
Not only the fountains, flowers and
wines, but the varieties of song birds,
[pea fowls and pheasants were exceed
ingly beautiful to the eyes of the Eas-
tern Washington woman.
Coming back to her own state, Mrs.
Meeks made stops with friends in
various places on the way back to
Yakima, the route passing through
Port Angeles, Olympia, Toledo, Kel-
$50, Longview, Portland and then over
1.-THE Columbia Highway home. a trip
in all, of nearly 1900 miles.
After reaching Yakima, Mrs. Meeks
twas the guest of brother at Fruit,
vale for two weeks before returning
to Countrywide, her White Bluffs
home.

MODERN EDUCATION
REVERSES OLD IDEAS
Business Institutes Use the Plan
of Getting People to Think
Rather Than Merely
to Learn.

There is one general principle at
the basis of all good teaching and it
is that a person learns more readily
by assimilating the experiences which
he himself encounters than in any
other way, says Harold Stonier, Ma
tional Educational Director OF the
American Institute of Banking. This
institute is the educational section OF
the American Bankers Association
through which $4,000 bank men and
women are receiving scientific instruc-
ton in their chosen business.
1.-THE most advanced people in
teaching today are emphasizing the
Importance of activity on the part of
the student" he says. "In the school
room of former days we often heard
such phrases as, BE STILL Learn by
heart Don't do that What does the
book say?' The newer education
asks, What do you Think What was
your reaction to that experiment.
What did you discover?,' What rea-
sons have you for answer?'
The New School Calls for Action
1.-THE expressing school is taking
the place of the depressing and lis
tening school. The classroom is be-
coming an open forum, studio of self
expression, place of mental growth.
The modern concepts of education are
personal experimentation, individual
investigation, critical discussion and
creative self-expression. The pupil
really learns only as he is able to
assimilate the new meanings of facts
and principles with his previous ex-
periences. Activities therefore con-
stitute the pivotal force around which
are grouped the new factors in educa-
ton. The primary responsibility of
the teacher is to furnish constant
stream Of activities which will afford
the stimulating urge to mental growth.
Education is a process Of expert
encing, and the program Of the insti-
tute is so arranged as to give the
greatest opportunity to gain by such
experience. Through this we develop
the art OF thinking. Thinking has
been described as the ability to ham
die experience and to bring it to bear
on q problem. Effective thinking
arises when we are presented with
the choice of conduct. Our previous
experiences become helpful as we
marshal them and bring them to bear
upon the matter Of our choice"
The students in the American Insti-
tute of Banking by reason of the fact
that they continue to go on about their
employment in banks while taking the
banking associations study courses
have an opportunity to combine learn
ing with practical thinking and action.

BELIEFS ABOUT Teeth
OFTEN UNTRUE

Popular beliefs do not always coin
eide with scientific knowledge. and
fallacies about the teeth are especially
prevalent. These are some of the
things that are not true; advises a
bulletin from the PUBLIC HEALTH
LEAGUE OF WASHINGTON:
l. That gums normally bleed when
teeth are brushed.
2. That gums normally bleed be-
cause they are brushed too hard or
because the brush is too stiff.
3. That the health of the mouth
depends on the type of tooth paste
used.
4. That decayed teeth are due to an
acid condition of the stomach.
S. That chewing gum cleans and
whitens teeth.
6. That pyorrhea is caused by a
germ.
7. That antiseptics or germicides in
the form of mouth washes can pre-
vent or cure pyorrhea.
8. That bad breath can be corrected
by means of mouth washes or mint
favored lozenges.
9. That mouth washes are deodo-
rants.
10. That the bleaching agents on the
market for whitening teeth can be
safely used.

been fittingly described as one of the
most exalted human relationships ever
created by law" They become at once
big brother, big sister, an advisor,
or confessor, sworn so to conduct
themselves that clients will be won to
them by their ability and integrity
Thousands Of little children have re-
ceived an education and have been
started off right in life through the
trust departments safe keeping and
guidance of the family estate, number
less widows have been protected from
merciless stock swindlers, many thou
sands Of business men have been re-
lieved of troublesome details in the
conduct of their business through the
creation of a living trust and still
others have safeguarded their bust
ness entei Uses through life insur-
ance trusts.
The favorable reaction of the public
toward trust department service is not
accidental. 1t may be traced jointly
to the growing intelligence of the
American people in financial affairs
and to advertising to the world at
large the merits of trust services. Adj
vertising used in sensible, judicious
way is necessary, power that has ac-
complished much good for humanity.
Among the detailed services, rem
dered by trust department the one
that seems to be winning favor the
fastest is the life insurance trust. Life
insurance is the quickest known way
of creating an estate. In reality it af-
fords the possessor the opportunity of
setting up a positive monetary safe
guard for his family and then paying
for it on the installment plan.
A married man is not fair to his
family if he fails to carry life insur-
ance. l would say to the young man,
BUY insurance before you buy the
ring" and to the young woman
would say, Marry no man so thought
less as to scott at life insurance"

HONEY PRODUCTION
NEEDS PUBLICITY

Potentially one of the great honey
producing sections of. the United
States, with the average yield per
hive in the Pacific Northwest 66 per
cent greater than the Nations aver
age, the honey problem is being APP
preached in an organized way in Wes-
tern Washington by an association OF
honey producers.
In the battle of the foodsru..s
among the great array of articles
now put on the market, honey must
be given its share of publicity or ex-
pect to be crowded out. If the success
of the honey producers association ap
proximates that Of other marketing
associations of the State the future of
this industry is assured.
Already the honey production for
1929 shows value of $240,O0O with
10000 colonies averaging 50 pounds
per colony or 100000 pounds of
honey, as indicated by data furnished
Washington State Chamber of Conn.,
merce.
Considering the variety and wide
distribution of wild and cultivated
flowers, the many clovers, fireweeds,
blossoming trees, alfalfa and other
plants from which nectar for honey is
secured, together with the fact that
because of equable climatic conditions
they are available for such long periods
of time, DECREASING should become an
important industry in the State of
Washington. Bees are also valuable to
the Embarrassing sections for pollen
izing the fruit, but honey production
in those districts has been restricted
because of spray poisoning.
In the counties adjoining the Cas-
cades on the East, also on the West
side and along the Pacific Coast, are
many good Bookkeeping sections and
carloads of honey unexcelled in quail
ity and flavor are produced there an
nually, particularly this is true OF
