 System is Extended
 There were two new scnools add ets to the rural system for this year. Moose Pass, on Kenai Pen insula, was opened, and Nushagak was changed from a. special school to a regular rural school. Three specials-Chilkoot, Curry and Gus tavus-were closed down at the close of the last term owing to a decrease ir pupils But three new ones were added-Peak Island in Prince William Sound, Kasilof on Cook Inlet, and Wood River in Bristol Bay-leaving the total un- changed
 The percentage of turnover in the teaching staff for this year was only 10 per cent, the smallest ir the Territory's history. In 1891 it was Is per cent and prior to that ranged from 40 to 42 per cent.
 Preference to Alaska teachers was recommended to school boards throughout the Territory both last year and again, this year.
 Regional High Schools
 This year for the first time, high school work is being offered in the Territorial system at Kodiak, Sel- dovia and Matanuska. These are regional centers and warrant the establishment of regional high schools, Commissioner Keller said. This policy will be continued by the Department of Education. i The High Schools at Nome and Sitka are being strengthened in order that they may be added to the accredited list in the near fu ture.
 Last year, the schools of the l Territory were operated at a cost O. $604 4,S32.81, MT Keller said. On the rural schools, the Territory ex- pended S192,O84.13. City schools operated at a cost of 0,027.31, supplied jointly by the municipali- ties and Territory. The Territory expended $l2,741.37 on the nine special schools.
 Idle ard abandoned equipment and supplies were put to work this year. Under an act passed by the 1881 Legislature, thousands of dol lars worth of such material was salyaged during the summer and | where possible was transferred to points where it served a useful purpose. This will be 9 factor in

and embellished and ampffied their
simplicity to form notable compost
tions. Daniel Mason's Quartet on
Negro themes, however, is disjointed
affair with a dryneSS of treatment
that dulls the initial ardor native
to the original themes and gives
tain technical display. The two
sketches on the contrary treat the
original melodies in such fashion
that their beauty is not only re-
tanned but enlarged and the regret
length. The clear. melting tonal
quality of the Gordon Quartet was
admirably suited to the portrayal
OF such ethereal effects.
Special interest, however, centered
in the performance of Carl EngelS
"Triptych," which is written for vio-
lin and piano and was played by
jacques Gordon and Harold Bauer.
1t is a dramatic composition with a
haunting melancholy in it that Is
effectively given to the violin to take
care of. The sense of tragedy is in
dicated in the opening bars, which
are played by the violin alone until
the piano takes up the theme. The
continuity of thought runs clearly
through the three movements bind
ing them together. However, the in
cessant modulation that is used,
passing from tonality to tonal1ty
without relief, becomes almost dis
turbing, and one must combat this
restlessness while holding on to the
thread of the idea. The underlying
idea calls for a great deal of emo
ton and dramatic ability, which
both artists succeeded in conveying.
Mr.. Bauer played with his usual art
and care and gave the piano an out
standing part which was restrained
enough to permit Mr.. Gordon's bell
like tone to achieve its full effect.
The audience was most enthusl-
astic and applauded generously both
artists and composer. A. E.

SANTIAGO, Chile P.-Rapproche-
ment of Chile and Peru now seems
virtually complete.
The two neighboring republics, once
belligerent and constantly suspicious OF
each other, in recent months have be-
come two of the most friendly and
comradely countries of the Americas.
Exchange of commercial missions
now taking place. the strong move for
full trade cooperation, intensive work
of the diplomatic representatives OF
each nation toward genuine interna-
tional understanding. and the new
radio-telephone circuit between Lima
and Santiago have broken down old
time unfrlendly barriers.
A year ago joint efforts were begun
TO bring Chile and Peru close together.
More has been accomplished i'll the
interim than for many years previously,
and what was formerly GOODNESS and
stressed polteness, as late as the latter
part of the Ibanez regime, now appears
wholesome cordiality.
Maintained Objectivcs.
Despite the various political overturns
here. the foreign office has been able to
maintain its objectives, so that the
Alessandri administration finds firm
foundation for its relations with Peru.
Much of the credit. on the Chilean
side. for the successful rapprochement
is given by officials to Ambassador
Manuel Rivas Vieuna, the interna-
tionalist and man of letters, who is SO
well regarded in Lima.
Dr. Pedro Irigoyen, the Peruvian
Ambassador here, is termed the most
vigorous worker for neighborly peace
that the nation to the north has ever
sent to any South American country.
He has made a distinct impression on
officialdom, the press and the public
since his arrival several months ago.
Peru has taken the initiative in some
of the steps toward better understand
ing. President Luis M. Sanchez Cerro
recently suggested that the commercial
relations of the two countries be put
on a basis as of one province with
another within country Acting on
his suggestions commercial mission
came here to encourage further trade
and to begin negotiations for new

to eliminate Gu. toms walls and revive
