GEOGRAPHER SAYS ESKIMOS ADOPT
 METHODS OF WHITES
KANSAS CITY, Mo, (AP)-

KANSAS CITY, Mo, (AP)- "One of the big surprises for those who have not studied geo. graphy is the lack of igloos in the Arctic regions" said Profes- sor John Q. Adams, assistant pro- lessor of geography in the Uni versity of Missouri, in speaking of trip into the Arctic Circle which he made last summer as a visiting scientist on the eastern Arctic expedition, sponsored by the Canadian government.
 The reason for this lack of ig- looS, according to Professor Ad- ans in bulletin issued by the university, is the fact that the Eskimos now use them only for a limited part of the year, and then they build them around tents or "tupiks," as the natives cal them.
 The Eskimos are no longer the nomads they once were. They have been engulfed in the white mans economic system, living in trading posts, using the white mans traps, and depending on the sales of white fox fur to the white man for their livelihood.
 If women do not wear the furs, the Eskimo experiences an eco- homie depression.

Robert X Graham, instructor in jour

very wisely advises the teachers in Penn
sylvania high schools and colleges to
make more use of newspapers in class
room instruction. 1t is an idea that is
not new in California, but it is one that
cannot be supported too strongly. Where
it has been put into practice, it has prov
ed of merit in broadening the viewpoint
and enlarging the understanding of stu
dents
The newspaper is the only complete,
accurate purveyor of current news, which
in few years will be history. Schools
have too long concentrated on ancient
history, without recognizing that current
history is perhaps more important in
the everyday lives of the pupils. The
world of today is the world they live in,
therefore the world of today is the one
they should understand thoroughly.
There is no other medium than news
papers to successfully present the en-
tire news of the day.

We have had something like 20
years now to get used to the auto
as a means of mass transportation.
In those years we have widened and
Strengthened our roads, studied
innumerable traffic systems, built
cars that are strong and easily
controlled and experimental with
all kinds of state license and in
surance laws.
Sole result of all this education
and experience is that We are killing
more people with our cars now
than ever before.
The National Safety Council
finds that in the first three months
of this year some $500 people were
killed by autos. This, alarmingly
enough, is a rise of 26 per cent
over the rate for 1886.
