Pedagogues in Norway
Form Important BODY

Because of their social prestige
and freedom of expression, the Nor
wegian teachers as a class have fur
nished larger quota of leaders and
distinguished men and women than
any other class of people in Norway,
says the United States Office of edu-
cation. Many of the prominent law
makers served at some time as teach
ers in country or village schools.
Many of the ministers and bishops
in the state church were teachers in
their younger days. Cabinet men,
bers, ministers of state, and several
of the premiers of Norway have
come up from the ranks of the ped
agOgues. The teacher is an active
and important factor in the entire
social and political order of the
country, says the office.

Parasite Imported to
Fight Japanese Beetle

A real foe of the Japanese beetle,
a go-getter type of foe, has Joined
the ranks of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture's army
which is campaigning against the
beetle, one of the most serious of the
insect pests to harass the agricultur-
ist of the eastern section of the
country.
Tiphia pOpilliavOra, to give the
ally its right name, was one of the
parasites imported from Japan to
fight the beetle, having been intro
duced in New Jersey in 1920. The
parasite seemed to be a slow starter,
but once it obtained a fOothOld It
Joined enthusiastically in the cam
paign. The few original colonies
have spread now to cover an area of
three and one-half square miles and
have assumed such numbers that re-
cruitS for new and advanced colonies
are now available.
The parasite attacks the beetle
when it is down, so to speak, bur-
rowing down in the soil until it finds
the grub of the beetle. Singing the
grub, the parasite lays an egg on the
grub. When the larvae of the para
site is hatched it lives off the body
fluids of the grub until it attains
sufficient size to consume the body
of the grub.

that was all their own, and the
pOignancy of the loss they had sut-
fered was mellowed by these new
er aspects so vital to themselves.
The world they had known was a
fabric which had crashed in ruin
about them-a desOIation out Of
which another existence was build

of the wilderness claimed them,
this feeling became a bond which
nothing could break. Wherever they
went and whatever happened, they
would belong to each other, for
death might separate but it could
not destroy.

he said. Tomorrow they would

Wolverines Fur Valuable

Wolverine is listed as the most
durable of lOng-haired furs and it
is fairly expensive. The under
wool is full and thick, with strong
bright top hair. The color is d
rich brown, the center being an
oval dark saddle edged with pale
tone, becoming darker toward the
flanks. The darkest and least

broken as well as prisoners

Chenufsio was the Rome of
wide domain in that period of its
history when JeemS and TOinette
came with TiaOga and his warriors.
In it were three hundred people.
and at full strength it numbered
sixty fighting men. 1t nestled at
the edge of large meadow which
the river embraced in a horse
shoe curve and its center was
stockaded stronghold with long
houses, storage buildings, cabins.
and teepes sufficient for the entire
population in times of stress.
The Senecas had vineyards and
fine orchards of apples, cherries.
and plums, and they also grew to-
baccO and potatoes on a consider
able scale. In the cOrnfieldS and
growing from the same hills were
pumpkins and beans, and every
where were sunllOwers of a dwarf
ish kind grown for the oil which
was extracted from their seeds.
When the season was good,
Chenufsio lived in comfort during
the long winter months. The gran.
aries were full, large quantities of
dried fruits were in the store
houses, and underground cellars
were stocked with apples, pump
kinS. potatoes, and sQuashes. When
the season was bad. Chenufsio
drew belt tightly about its stOm-
ach for five months of the year.
For three of these months it
starved.
This was a bad season. Spring
frOsts had killed the early vege-
tatiOn and had blackened the buds
of apples and plums. The corn was
so poor that, after roasting time,
only enough was left for the next
years planting, and beans and pO-
tatoes had suffered until there was
less than a third of a crop. But
the people of ChenufsiO wore no
appearance of gloom on the day
when Tiaoga and his triumphant
warriors were to arrive from the
east. TiaOga's messenger had
brought the news that not a man
had been lost in their invasion of
the territory of their enemies. This
was unusual, and it put fresh cour-
age into the hearts of those who
had seen the year go against them.
Tiaoga's homecoming with the
spoils of war was an augury which
more than discounted empty eel
lars and granaries.
AS part of these spoils, they
knew TiaOga was bringing
daughter to take the place of Sill

With the courtesy which Tiaoga
had already established for him

chieftain listened attentively, and
when the youth had finished. he
spoke words which sent two of
his men running down the ridge

fired it, had stumbled upon their

CRAB CANNING IN ALASKA IS
 DEVELOPING

Possibilities of the development of crab canning in Alaska are be- ginning to attract rather wide spread interest on both sides of the Pacific. The new attention to this field traces to two commercial ventures in crab canning. both being still somewhat experimental, ac- cording to the Pacific Fisherman.
 Both Japanese and American in terests are thus now active with Alaskan crab The former, as is well known, in 1880, operated the floating eannery "Taikoku Maru" in Bristol Bay, canning the spider or king crab which supports the great Oriental crab packing in dustry. More recently. an American company, the Alaska Sea Foods company, has undertaken the can ming of crab at Cordova, Alaska. predicating its pack upon the "Dungeness cmbs Cancer Magis- ter) derived from the Prince Will liam Sound.

 Instinctively Mike crossed his arms across his chest as the bear iunged at him with jaws spread wide. In Mikes right hand he still hung on to the rifle and forum ate that he did for his right chest and rifle were all bit deeply into. Next came a terrific swipe on the back of the head hurling him to the ground: another bite out of the pants and the brownie turned and made off. Mikes partner kept eircling the two but could not fire for fear of shooting Mike.
 H. N Evans, big fur dealer and trader of the Westward country, who also is in the city, is of the opinion this bear was the identi- cal one which killed the native boy near Kanatak last fall while the lad was standing beside river fishing.
