Ills magazine, the Anti-Tuberculosis
Quarterly. Dr Kitazato calls attention
to the fact that a singular condition
in Japan is the large number of eases
of tuberculosis among the school

I grammar school teachers the death
irate from tuberculosis is 24 per ten

I NEW YORK, Feb. 11. — The an
Jnouncement that the Cornell Univer ^
(pity Athletic Association has signed
Coach Jack Moakley to a ten year
contract to train Ihe Ithaca track
_ |team, is another example of the man
ner in which Cornell looks ahead in
lltie matter of collegiate and tntercol-|
legiate sports. Moakley came to Cor
nell seventeen years ago. and since
181*9 has had charge of the track and j
cross country squads without a break.
If he lives out the term of his new
confront with Cornell he will have
served the Red and White for 21
years—a record which is unequalled
In this line of ’varsity sport at this

REINDEER GREAT'
HELP TD IDE
The reindeer industry, which began
lit Alaska in lxp;;. b> the introduction
of a few reindeer from Siberia, lias
long been a demonstrated success in
many sections according to Governor
Strong in lii.s annual report to the
secretary of the interior.
Ilis report says the industry has
placed the native inhabitants beyond
Ihe reach of grim want, which always
laced them during the long winter <
i
seasons. Tin natives, and especially <
<
he Eskimos, who were the first bene <
iciaries of the introduction of rein <
leer, were always improvident This, *
towever. i characteristic of all abo- J
spinal peoples. But wherever the ^
reindeer have been introduced in
Uuskii the industry has had a bene
I'ic.ial effect upon the native people. It
lias taught them to assume responsi
bilities. increased their activities, and
raised them materially in the ways of
civilized lile. There is still need of
tlie extension of the industry. There
are thousands of natives in the delta
country between the Yukon and Kus
kokwim rivers, and in the Aleutian
islands who can be saved from pos
sible extinction by introducing the
reindeer among them and teaching
them how to care for the animals and
themselves. In this way their habits
of living will lie gradually changed
from miserable dugouts or igloos, j
which they now inhabit, to more Sani
tary and comfortable dwellings. Iti
the Aleutian group of islands there
are probably l.nntt Aleuts; in the Yu
kon Kuskokwitn delta there are pro
bably 5,hub natives of the Bering sea
Eskimo tribes.
GREECE IS ILL
*
SALOMKI. Feb 11 — The French
nnd British troopers stationed in Sa
loniki since the beginning of the al
lied Balkan undertaking never cease
to marvel at the number of newspa
pers able to live in a city of. normally,
only about 150,000 inhabitants, of
whom a very large percentage cannot
read or write. Though the second city
of Greece since its conquest by the
Greeks in the last Balkan war. Salon!
ki has never been, and is not now, in
any real sense a Greek city. Indeed,
a scant 2'- per rent of the population |
Is Greek. Yet the city supports five
Greek daily newspapers, three morn
ing and two afternoon journals. Be
sides these, probably the most widely,j
read of all is the unique daily, the
Forward, which is printed iu Hebrew
characters for the benefit of the over
whelming Jewish population of the
place—but Hebrew characters spell
ing out Spanish, not Hebrew words.
