 .'The Indian problem is largely one of education, in a broad sense. The particular problem now is In- dian health, a matter of educa- tion in sanitation, personl hygiene and such preventive factors as rec reation, proper diet and good liv- ing conditions.
 Reservations will gradually be infiltrated by whites and lose their identity as the Indians intermarry, scatter or amalgamate. The merg- ing process has begun on some resrvations, whereas other tribes preserve their full-blooded racial character and insure that Indian life will go on for generations to come.
 Emotional reactions of the two races are the same, but the Indians intellectual attitude is unscientific. He is given to mys- ticism, to adoration of nature and it's forces, to reverence for the tribes older members. The younger generation, more sophisticated, is getting away from this and the tribal authority is waning"

THE CoaaPLAcENT OYSTER
Christian Science Monitor)

Only the person who has come to grips with one knows how like the fourth dimension an oyster can be. Only between covers can either be considered captive. Both are all but impossible to grasp. Yet both awake in the human breast a pecu- liar response-a determination that is aroused in mankind only by the challenge of the apparently insur- mountable.
 There is this difference between them, however. You can forget the fourth dimension. In fact, you are almost sure to. But the oyster is a recurring perplexity. It Is a hard -shelled individual, but elus- i've. There is an air of utter-al- most pathetic-helplessness about 1t. Yet 1t has conquered. at least momentarily, many e mighty member of an unconquerable race.

CRICKET IS NOT so SLOW
Christian Science Monitor)

Another transatlantic myth has been exploded-that of the English game of cricket is slow. This is the verdict of boys of Riverdale (N. M County School who have just returned from a series of athletic contests in England. Like most of their fellow countrymen, they went over with a prepossession about the "slowness" of cricket, but. after a game or two. they found they were much mistaken"
 Possibly the idea of the slowness of cricket has grown out of the fact that in first-class matches one game takes three days to complete. Tn international matches a work ing week may be consumed. To the uninitiated the inference is that an event lasting such a long time must be as leisurely as croquet. The players actually stroll off the field for four o'clock tea! Clearly game which cannot proceed to . conclusion between two whistles must be-well, somewhat of No amount of explanation by past or present "fianneled fools" as Kipling once called cricket play CTS. can upset such . charge. Like the Riverdale boys, the scoffers must be shown--then they come to a very different conclusion.
 For generations Englishmen have ignored these aspersions. They take too much delight in their national pastime to be both cred about them! With what pleas ure is the seasons opening greet ed! This is the sign that "sumer is icumen in" Bats come out Of their winter sleep in oil. new splices are tested, and presently one again hears throughout the land the familiar sound of leather beating on willow, sound a thrilling on the village green as on the metropolitan oval.

Poor old Balto! Remember when they erected the statue to the supposedly famous dog that led his comrades on that dash to Nome. Alaska. a few years back with sup- ply of toxin-antitoxin. What an epic that was. Now they're going to remove the statue in Central Park, because the whole thing was fake just story coneocted by some newspaper boys. Leave the statue up. Poor old Balto wasn't party to the hoax. He probably deserved one anyway.

OF the major producing states
California was the only one that
showed an increase in daily aver
age production in November.
Production in the Oklahoma City
field increased, but the output
OF the older fields Of oklahema
declined materially so that the
daily average Of the State de-
creased in November to $4,000
barrels, the lowest since septem-
Der, 1925. Daily average pro-
duction in Texas. the leading
state, declined approximately
$4,000 barrels in November;
practically all Of this decrease
occurring in the fields Of north
and north-central Texas.
Field activity was materially
curtai1ed in November. The
number Of oil wells completed
amounted to $50, which COM
pares with SIS for the previous
month and 1907 for November,
1898.
Although crude runs to stills
were materially reduced IA
