 He continues that one of the chief aims of the new organization IS to attract investors. investor settlers and tourists from the Unit- ed States, and quotes recent American visitor as saying:
 The average American thinks of Australia as small island. and does not believe that it is bigger than the United States. It is never heard of in America although it is distant only 23 days of com fortable travel"
 The American visitor" Mir. Hclmes adds, suggested that we either were an extraordinarily mod est or else a very backward people. or we should boost Australia more" {"

1. D. HENDERSON BOOSTS ALASKA
 AT PAL0 ALTO
Alaska Educator Says AL aska Schools Rank with
 Best in States

Lester D. Henderson, 60 well and
 fondly known in Alaska as her first Commissioner of Education. is
 demonstrating that he is still an
 Alaska booster Since going to
 Palo Alto, where he is finishing
 his work for a Master of Arts de-
 gree, MT. Henderson has made speeches on Alaska to the Stanford Education Club, the Palo Alto Ro-
 tary Club, tho Santa Clara County Schoolmasters' Club and the Palo Alto Exchange Club.
 The Palo Alto Times contains the following account of an ad- dress Mir. Henderson delivered at meeting of the Stanford Educa- l ton Club January IS:
 Alaska may be remote from United States in point of miles, history and environment, but that far flung possession of the Uncle Sam is in step with the mother country in many respects, educa- tion being notable among them.
 That is the contention of L. D. Henderson, Alaskan Commissioner of Education, who spoke last night before the Stanford Education Club on The Educational Program of Alaska
 Alaska is land of paradoxes, he declared, dry and wet, hot and cold, new and old. Long be- fore a large portion Of the United States was even thought Of, the first formal school was established by the Russians in the Territory of Alaska, in 1785. Just one hun dred years later, in 1885, the first American school came into being
 "'The Alaskan schools today are much like the schools of Califor- nia or Iowa or any other State That they are on about the same educational plane is shown by the fact that GO per cent of our high school graduates enter institutions of higher learning, and by the fact that Alaska school children have no trouble in transferring to schools here in the States and continuing their work where they left off up north he continued.
 Henderson dealt at considerable ! length with the existence of a dual | education system in Alaska-Terri- i torial schools, supported by the Ter ritorial Government, for white chil- dren and children of mixed blood 1 who are living a civilized life; and 1 the Government schools supported , by Federal funds. for the abor- igines.
 Previous to Henderson's lecture, Dr. w. c.

FLOWER BED" LATEST MAMMOTH CAVE FIND

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Feb. 4. A subterranean garden of flower like crystals is the newest find in Mammoth cave.
 The formation was discovered by Leo McGavic and Cecil Cutliff, guides, in a chamber with an area of 800 square feet. It is not more than mile and half from the famous Sand cave in which Floyd Collins was imprisoned for almost two and half months before his body was brought from its rocky tomb to the surface.
 Pushing their way through tun- nel which almost stopped their ad- vance, McGavic and Cutliff found themselves in the flower garden, their lights reflected by millions of gleaming crystal flowers which rose from the chamber floor much after the manner of cabbages. The clus- ters varied in diameter from three to l4 inches, but all were the same height.
 The crystals are believed to be natures transformation of some stra ange underwater vegetable growth left high and dry ages ago. The formation, according to George D. Morrison, President of the Nam moth Cave Development Company, is neither stalactitic, helectitic or stalagmatic and is unlike anything discovered before. He says that it IS some kind of gypsum formation. Havana is seeking the title of the best lighted city in the world, and is extending it's street lighting sys- sem accordingly.

ORIGIN
 MAY BE LEARNED
Princeton Professor Says New
 Tidal Data at Hand

New York, April 15 LP) - The New York Times today quotes Dr John Q. Stewart, associate professor of astronomical physics at Prince ton university, as saying evidence regarding present theories as to the origin of the planets may be found by q study of the orbit of the re- gently discovered planet N.'
 He explained that the commonly held theory as to the origin of the solar system is that the matter from which the planets were formed was torn from the suns surface by the attraction of passing star. Much of this matter condensed into the planets and they at first re- volved about the sun in highly ec- centric orbits. Gradually, however, they were forced into approximately circular orbits by the friction of the dispersed matter which did not form into planets.
 He said that if it is esta blished that the newly found body is plane tary in nature and is travelling in an ellipse instead of a circle, it would empt from the influences that CO., creed the other planets and that it is following the same sort of path that they followed when the solar systenls was young.
 This he said, Twill give us a new reference point on the tidal theory. It may support the theory and it may work against it. This cannot be known until the orbit of the new body has been computed.'

 @ Trail Helps Officers .-
 A trail, presumably of blood, was one of the circumstances that prompted the arrest of Wright The stains began at the spot where the slayer must have stood when he fired the shotgun slugs into the dis trict attorneys body. That was at the rear of Prices home, the slugs being fired through a screen as Price started down the basement stairs.
 r The trail led to the river bank. It was picked up again in an aban- doned boat on the other side of the stream. From the boat the stains led toward Wright's home where sheriff's men later found Wright, his clothing torn and one hand cut.
 In the river, near the boat, off, cers found a shotgun. The sheriff was told Wright had been on a fishing trip and drinking party with friends Sunday.
