Somehow, one pictures authors and contributors to that worth while publication, the National Geo. graphic magazine, as being tall, dstinguished-looking scientists with bushy eyebrows and Van Dyke boards.

Since they shut the gates, about the first of February. Boulder Dam has mpounded lake twen- ty-two miles long, or about the length of Oneida Lake upstate. Rising two or three feet day, as the Colorado pours in 16200 cubic feet a second, it will not be long before the lake will be as long as Lake George. Presently, when nearly full grown the lake behind Boulder Dam will be as long as Long Island Sound, from Little Gull Island to Execution Rocks (seventy-sx mes) But it will be forty miles longer than that and five miles longer than LaRe Champlain when it's basin is filled at last It must be admitted that it's is going to be considerably less than that of either the Sound or Champlain; cnly three square miles larger than Lake Geneva (Switzerand), in fact; i e, 227 square miles.
 So what? inquiries the person whose sense of wonder over size and superatiyes has been so con- tnuously and coarsely stimulated for years that this rough measure by comparisons of the largest arti- ficial lake in the world is apprehended without deep emotion No one will attempt to answer this scoffer directly and verbally But if he will consent to climb in a puddle jumper the latest thing in streamnes and head west through the dust storms for few days the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and Boulder Dam in that rivers Black Canyon are there to restore the abused of grandeur

DINNER FAILS SWINGING AGAIN.

It may be true that there still several mil lion persons without jobs in this country-actual figures being about varied the number Of labor organizations that give them out from time to time but the rapid rate at which industry is absorbing the unemployed, is important and encouraging.
 Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor, points out that in March industrial employment greater by 28100o0 than in March of 1883 low point of the depression Weekly payrolls up by ST. oooooO Other Government reports that ma chinery producers are increasing expansion Higher rentals and increase in occupancy of home and busi- ness properties is evident.
 Those facts, based actual findings of Govern ment agencies mean more than a casual glance at them in print indicates. It isn't hard to recall couple of years 50 ago when doubling up of families to rent a widespread fact and then rent went down and down. Business prop critics vacated occupants failed one after the other. Great buildings in many of our larger cities stood virtually unoccupied in instances Property owners in order to keep tenants at all were forced to lower their rentals below actual cost of upkeep.
 But those factory wheels turning again Bread winners in families that doubled up in house are going back to a job again and a result seeking larger quarters Struggling businesses, feel ing the impetus of the man with money in his pocket to spend, able to meet the rent and the property owner is beginning to get at least figure which will enable him to keep up his buildings and pay the taxes.
 The impractical theorist calls it the vicious cycle but when the cycle begins moving in the right direction it seems to have the desired effect and it is revolving the right way There may not be two chickens in every pot but there is getting to be good satisfying ham sandwiches in those dinner pails that rattled empty for quite a long time

GOING AHEAD IN EDUCATION.

It is upon sound fundamentals that our civilza- ton is built and perhaps most important of these is education. With enlightenment go forward; without knowledge deteriorate. Thus it is that we constantly strive for better and broader school facilities for children, and now, with further ad vancement along educational lines not looking the adults Vocational education for old well young is being carried forward, and with marked degree of success in the States Now authorities will be able to install it in Alaska
 A. E, Karnes Commissioner of Education returns from the national capital with optimistic reports for the future Prospects good he says flor big advance on the practical side of education in Alaska. By the practical side, I mean vocational and adult education"
 Pointing out that the Department of Education has been given $3000o vocational work starting this coming fall the Commissioner explains that not only will students be able to coordinate school work with lines of employment in which they may bn engaged while attending classes but that adults will be afforded educational advantages in the ticnal field where the demand is felt.
 In years past training in special trades and vacations has been confined to technical schools but becoming and practical nation it has spread to virtually all institutions of learn ing. What Letter of advancing our civilization our knowledge and better citizenship than by equip
 
 ness which they propose to follow? How can encouragement for better things be given adults than to help them along in the crafts to which they aspire? It is of the finest compliments to our school systems in this country that the leaders adding the practical without dropping the theoretical in education
 The fact that Alaska is keeping abreast speaks well for the future of the Territory Alaska schools on par with any in the States and are accredited at the institutions of higher learning, and it is in line with high standards that vocational education is being added at this time The start as has been indicated by the amount of money available may be in limited way but it is the forerunner for extension And, too, tional is particularly adapted to Alaska where have much seasonal employment and great deal of spare time in many lines With oppor- tunty afforded them the people engaged in seasonal work may be preparing themselves in the winter months for special employment perfecting them selves in the particular business they following IL means advancement; greater contentment for

Would wheat farmers. cotton farm

Apparently the New Deals far flung
policy of placing high-powered news
paper men in charge of departmental
press relations has made a deep i'm
preston in President RooSevelt's old
stamping ground at Albany. Gov.
Lehman has just signed bill creating
a bureau of State publicity in the
conservation department Its purpose
is to glorify and promote the ad-
vantageS of New York State as
resort and travel area and as an out
standing business and residential
region. The bureau will operate under
an initial appropriation of 100000
and be presided over by Allan Reagan,
former sports editor of the Albany
Times Union, at a salary of $4,000 a
year. Gov. Lehman thinks the Empire
State has been too modest in propa-
gandizing its charms and attractions.

sites are any criterion of prosperity.

that 1885 will be the best American
