promising son was tos young to teach,
and refused to let him accept several
offers. But one day when his father was
absent attending court, Glenn took the
job of teacher of a rural district, the di-
rectors of which came and offered him
the place. He began work before his
father returned, and the latter, finding
him so ambitious, decided not to inter-
tere.
Glenn now has 29 pupils, The ma-
jority are larger and older than he, but
he maintains a degree of discipline which
many older and more experienced teach-
ers may well envy. “How are you get-
ting along, Glenn?” asked his mother
one day, when he came home at the end
of a week’s work. “I had to whip sev-

It turned out that among others he had

weighed 180 pounds. Glenn doesn’t

. cf an Expert Geologist by
That Country.
“Come over into Macedonia and heip
1s” is a cry that found a western echo
jhe other day, when the Peruvian gov-
'nment asked the director of the
low States geological survey for
the loan of a geologist. The official
who made the request is the chief of
the corps of mining engineers, an or-
ganization that corresponds somewhat
to our geological survey. In answer
io this appeal Dr. George I. Adams, of
the geologic branch of the survey, has
been selected for this Peruvian work
wnd expects to leave early in April for
1is mew post. His headquarters will
pe im the city of Lima, which is situ-
red six or seven miles inland and
about 500 feet above sea level. Here
on the west coast of the Pacific ocean,
only 12 degrees from the equator, he
will still be cue sone of Washington,
safely perched on the familiar 77th
meridian, the self-same one that runs
through Fifth Street East. of our cap-
tal city.
Dr. Adams’ chief duty will be to gr-

for hydrologic and hydrographic work.
The Peruvian government is develop-
Ing the resources of the cantry, es-
| pecially in the arid plain between the
Pacific ocean and the Andes moun-
tains. In places these mountains de-
scend abruptly into the sea, but In
other parts the coastal plain is from
50 to 100 miles wide. Owing to the
fact that the moisture from the clouds
's nearly all precipitated on the moun-
ain sides before it reaches the plain,
this narrow strip of land along the
ocean is a sandy desert except where
It is traversed by small rivers that are
‘ed from the melting snows on the
nountain sides. The population of the
coast centers along these streams,
which are the hope of the irrigators.
Anciently, under the Incas, all this
plain was watered by an extensive 8ys-
‘tem of irrigating ditches. but the Span-
lards allowed them to fall into disuse.
Lately some attempt has been made
to irrigate this region again. The sat-
Istactory results of this effort are ac-
countable for Dr. Adams’ present
plans.
Dr. Adams will study the geologle
formations of the arid district in the
hope of locating artesian basins
and developing wells wells. He
will tale with him the latest Amer-
scan drilling machinery and will have
the ald of a topographic assistant and

(for irrigation, this valley will produce
sbundant crops of sugar, tobacco and
totton, and the low ®oothills of the
Andes will offer an inviting field for
the endeavors of the vine-grower, An
effort will also be made to supply the
towns with water suitable for domestic
