 All of us know individuals long past the age Of adolescence who spend their time in universities or in special school taking courses s for some remote goal that is never concretely brought into view.
 Year after year they go on, in volved in vague research, in cul- tural or artistic courses, paid for by their elders or in some cases even by husband or wife.
 There are instances Of young wo- men married to men apparently thus preparing themselves for some splendid goal. who have found the economic burdens Of their marriage have come to rest chiefly on their own shoulders.
 An individual gifted with some thing more than average intelli- gene" may yet be infantile in his attitude toward lifes responsibiIi- ties. In prolonging indefinitely his

preparation for wor., uy cvades il altogether
 The high degree o( specialization Of work in our complicated world demands prolonged preparation for anyone who hopes 10 take his posi- tion as something more than a skilled laboror.
 IL is necessary for the adolcscent, no matter how well orienled in re- lation to his life problems he may be. 10 spend years in preparation for hls work.
 This fact. coupled with the nat ural concern of parents lest they deprive their children Of opportu- mites for making the best of their lives, creates q situation in which the youth who finds studying easy may readily exploit those who are concerned with his making his way in the world.
 The benefits of higher education should be given only 10 those who have valid intellectual interests or definite concrete objective in view.

 The Nations Good Wishes

The nations sympathy and good wishes 20 out to Herbert Hoover, IT,. who, sccording 10 a recent an- uounctment in the public press made by Dr. Joel T. Boone. White HCuae rhysiciau, is said to be suf- tcrin3 from tuberculosis in an carly stage.
 The American nation has always been sympathetically interested Tn the Wc!l-being of it's chief eXecu- lives and their families. One needs but 10 recall the public sympathy aroused by the illness of Grant, Me kinley, Wilson, Harding and of CoolIdge's young son.
 Dr. Boone's announcement Of MT. Hoover's illness, it's history and pro- posed method Of treatment is inter- osting and instructive The history IS typical Of early tuberculosis.
 As is so very common, the patient complained Of intestinal disturb anCes, lost weight and suffered un- accountable fatigue. A careful ex- animation revealed that, though the complaint was about the gastro- intestinal tract, the source of the trouble was i'll the lung-a small area Of which was affected
 The discovery Of the condition having hcon made at the time when the disease IS still in it's carly stage, tho outcome, or prognosis. IS looked upon as good
 Ilr. Boone quite correctly states that the modern conception Of tu- berculosis when diagnosed early and when properly treated is not viewed with alarm. It is believed that in a case of this sort complete cure results when such course is pursued" This is strictly in har- mony with the contentious Of tuber- CUlosis workers 10 the effect that early discovery facilities early re- Covery.
 The cure which Mir, Hoover, Jr., IS taking conforms to the type gen. orally applied to tuberculosis ind- viduals, In this cure rest and liv- ing in the open air are prominent features. Under this regimen the pa tient should make permanent and rapid recovery. This. We are sure, all Of us sincerely and cordially wish for him.

MUSK OXEN ID
 BEGIN LENGTHY
 JOURNEY NORTH
Herd of 30 Leaves New York This Week by Ex-
 press for Fairbanks

Thirty four young musk oxen, that arrived in New York on Sep tember Is, and were placed in quarantine there. are due to leave there early this week on their Icng journey to Fairbanks where the United States Biological Sur yey will keep them in large en- closure for study and breeding. The purpose is eventually to re-estab- fish musk-oxen in the ranges Of Northern Alaska. where they roam ed in large numbers until exterm- mated about one hundred years ago.
 The herd will be shipped by ex- press to Seattle, thence to Seward by steamer and rail to Fairbanks. J. L. Palmer, Biological Survey agent in charge of the reindeer experiment station at Fairbanks will have charge of the animals enroute and conduct the experi- ment after they reach their des- tination.
 Range Is Reproduced
 The enclosure in which the herd will be kept will as nearly as pos .sible reproduce the conditions on the natural wild range favorable to the feeding and breeding oi musk oxen, and will afford ar opportunity for studying the pos abilities of domestication a breeding of the animals with view of making greater economic use of the areas north of the tim. berline.
 In feed requirements the musk cxen differ considerably from rein deer, and will not compete witt the great herds of these animals which the United States, througf the Bureau of Education, introduc ed into Alaska nearly 40 years ago and which now number 100000 in round numbers. It is hoped t repeat with musk -oxen the success in reindeer breeding.
 Truly Arctic Animals
 Musk k-oxen," Paul G. Reding ton, Chief of the Biological Survey explains, "are the most truly Arc tic of all the large mammals Q North America At the time Of tn earliest exploration of the Arctic these animals inhabited the vas territory north of the great trans continental forest Natives of Al aska say that their grandfather killed musk-oxen in the regio south of Point Barrow but ther is no record that Europeans hay seen the animals in Alaska.
 ..Long ago the musk-oxen disar peared from the north of Europ and Asia. They still live in North ern Canada and Greenland. Car ada, for several years, has bee making vigorous efforts to preserN these interesting animals and hs established several reservation where hunting is prohibited.
