Ol son,, professor of anthropology at the University of California. The Indian tribes of Northern British Columbia have under-the- counter dealings in ceremonial privileges. Among these people. Dr. Olson reported, the most highly prized things in life are ancient cere monial titles or names which carry with them the rights to perform certain dances, to sing certain songs, to erect totem poles and to give feasts. Handad Down At one time, these privileges were owned and controlled by members of the noble cast and were handed down in family lines. But today the native popu lation is reduced to a fraction of what it was a century ago and many commoners have inherited the rights of their highly placed ancestors. Some of them sell these leg ends and songs on the black market to other tribes. A some what comparable situation, Olson pointed out, would be an Ameri can selling the national anthem to a foreign nation. New Apple Variety Developed In East Geneva, N. Y.

Miss Hartsook, who for the last 12 rears has been studying dog and human behavior, con tends the Fidos of this world are happier and better adjusted than most of their masters. The dogs have a philosophy of living which humans might well follow, she said. Fido lives each moment. He doesn't worry about the dog house shortage or where the next bone is coming from. Miss Hartsook admitted that humans hardly can go that far in patterning after a dog's life. But she said they could stop worrying about things which 99 times out of 100 never happen anyway. Admittedly, she said, this security for dogs doesn't apply to all mutts. A few strays have to be taken care of by the wel fare state the city dog pound and the A.S.P.C.A. She spoke about the dogs she meets in her daily job. Miss Hartsook is director of the Flag Dog Training School in Manhattan. Most of the dogs she trains come from the "upper classes." Obedience training is given both to the dogs and their owners. "With the owner In com mand," she explained, "he sees things from a dog's point of view. He becomes adjusted to the dog and knows what the animal is capable of in the way of obedi ence." The veteran traner is opposed to boarding schools for dogs. Under such a training system, she contends, the dog learns strict obedience to his instructor but can be a little hellion as far as his master is concerned. Czechs In U. S.
