Skillful questions on the story will also aid in it's reproduction. The same story may be repeated with profit many times; for the more often native children hear the words in connection with the same experience. the more close ly will they be associated in mem ory, and the more spontaneous will be their recall. The expressions should become so familiar to these native children that they will ev- entually carry them over conscious lv into their activities. Pictur- es may be used effectively to help establish the association betwe n word and idea. They should be used to accompany the object and the action, rather than as sub stitute for them.

 OF EDUCATION

Following are some interesting facts concerning the work of the Office of Education, Departm nt of the Interior, Alaska Division, which may be of use to everyon should they desire to know to what extent the governm mt is go- ing to educate the natives of Alaska.
 Vocal Literature Among ESkimoS
 At the most westerly tip of the American continent, Cape Prince of Wales, where it is too barren for anything exc pt moss and willow buds 10 grow (contrary 10 the Wandering Jews description of the trees seen from the Sib r;au coast at this point. lies an Eskimo yil- lage. The traditions of the peop- le and th ir ancient reli oeaasion- ally unealthed in old graves show this village to be hundreds and hundreds of years old. + is not uncommon to run across bit of mastadon ivory, and a spear head that looks as though ii W re made from mastadon tusk.
 These Esk,mos, and their neigh bors on the Diomede Islands and King Island have community cav es called "Kosge g. Her. the Es- kimos gather to gossip and work during the long winters nights. As men build their sleds, shape ivory spear ads. or make raw hide ments fofr clothing, they tell many tales. Some of their stories are weeks long. others are shorter an ecdotes Or bits of history, They have imagined queer tales regard ing animal life, comparing birds, beasts and fish to men. and giV- ing them many of mans habits and qualities. A favorite plot is the stealing of an Eskimo girl by a bird to make her his wife, and her ultimata escape. Another plot is the rescue of destitute widow and children through the generosity and help of all animal,
 Not only by word of mouth do they tell their stories; their dan ces are accompanied by songs tha, tell of brave hunting deeds, or the beautiful sewing done by tn women, or the great amount of ! furs and clothing some prosper ous villager owns Each moyem nj of the dance portray~ whatever the song is describing. The movements of animals, tn killing with spears the after-feast, all are sung and gestured about. They have vic tory dances. also, after a big killing of game.
 Though the Eskimos have Il" written books, their vocal liter ature is extensive.
 1 Instead of one person at time enjoying a story. a. many as care to listen may experience the thrills romance. and excitement of the tale. They accomplish a lot oi work necessary to their existence while feeding thir minds.
 "Tell us a story" is tn constant plea of the Eskimo school child ren. Perhaps in the near future they will be advanced enough tt write down their own stories, as they have already translated anC written down many of our hymns
 Vocal literature fosters a get. to-gether spirit that does much fol the community Though theil stories may later take a writer form they will lose much. The facial expressions, the gestures and voice tones further the en. joyment of the verbal story and adds to its Interpretation.
