(Detroit News.) The indictment of the teaching of history brought by Cecil B. De Mille is partly justified, but only partly. The essence of Mr. De Mille's criticism is that history as taught in the schools “distorts the picture of our traditions and destroys our perspective of present day international problems.” The aver- age person's knowledge of history is composed of “legends popularized by fiction.” L Mr. De Mille expects too much of the schools. History is a subject infinitely broad. The high school student can devote some five hours a week‘ |to the subject during a year or two. The best a‘ 'good teacher in a well-planned course can do is to hit the high spots. The student emerges with a far | from complete or accurate knowledge of American history, and very little of any other. It is the fault neither of the teaching nor of the pupils, but of the immensity of the subject itself. In college, the student who specializes in history is usually given a few general courses and is then asked to specialize—again because the field is so, large that it can be cultivated intensively only £n small sections. We are a little sorry for anyone who sets outz to get an accurate perspective of present day inter-: national problems; it would take him the rest of his life, and even then he would not have completed the course. Of course, there is something in what Mr. De ! Mille says. He is a great man in the moving pie- | ture field, and the movies, according to our observa- | tion, employ the same methods of popularizing Jegends by fiction in which Mr. De Mille finds faulv. jin the schools. THE ESKIMO BURNS PETROLEUM. The Eskimo takes to the easier ways of civiliza- thon just as readily as the white man, and to the luxuries often more quickly. There was a time when the Eskimo lived in an igloo which he kept warm | with whale and seal oil lamps, a temperature of 70 degrees being easily maintained. But the white man moved into the land of the Eskimo and the latter's theory of a place to live was a wooden building. The white man’s scheme of things appealed to the native and he, too, adopted the frame house. But the Arctic winds blow cold and the Eskimo found the old seal oil lamp didn't supply the necessary heat. Now comes a report from Point Barrow that the Eskimos are solving the problem by burning tundra from the natural petroleum fields which is so saturated with the oil that it burns readily. In contrast with this change in the living con- ditions of the Eskimo is the appalling increase in tuberculosis among the natives. Those who are conversant with life among these people point out that the Eskimo was a healthy person when he lived in his igloo and ate those native foods which his land provides, principally meat and fat. For ' centuries, so far as history knows, he lived happy and healthy under those conditions, little aware there was such a thing as disease. But today the Eskimo burns petroleum, eats white man’s food and has tuberculosis. Civilization, says the dictionary, is “an improved condition of man.” Well, maybe? Home, Hazardous Home?
