Punta Arenas with that of London. Size of city. Encourage pupils to consult tables in textbook. Fd Mb2. Tops of partly submerged mountains. Examine map of west coast of Chile. Note latitude of Strait of Magellan: meaning of snowcapped peaks (effect of altitude). Forests also tell of abundant moisture. Use rainfall map. There b time for all this, but the teacher must know for what each picture is to be used and see that the exercise moves along rapidly. She is chiefly concerned with awakening ideas, not in "hearing a recitation." Which part of ,\rgenlina is sparsely populated? Inspect map F 4.S. Have pupils note where the railroads are. Let a pupil point out on the screen each city indicated on the map for the northern part, numbering in order as he does so; in the southern part. Train in map reading. Do not be content merely to give information about South America. There are some people in this southern end of the continent. Use pictures of Ona Indians. Their size; dress: houses. How do these Indians get a living? What does the method of living tell about the of civilization? Compare Fa X3 and Fa X4. How did the in of Fa X3 get the material for his house? Have pupils recog- nize the primary needs of food, clothing and shelter. In the study of Indians of southern Argentina, have in mind the toiic "people" and that there are very many Indian tribes in different sijges of civilization in South America. Regions of Chile Note the length of Chile compared with width. The approximate latitude of the southern end has been fixed in mind. .Mso the lati- tude of Rio de Janeiro. Use map F 1 to get latitude of northern end compared with that of Rio de Janeiro. Get more exact latitude from some large scale map. Convert length of Chile in degrees into miles. Inspecting F 1, compare with the east and west distance across the I nited States, which should already be known or now ascertained. The mean breadth is about 70 miles. Visualize by recalling some place 70 miles from the pupil's home. Tliink of Chile as divided into three sections—southern, central. northern. Emphasize agricultural interests. Have pupils read about products. The plantation residence Fd SZ tells of the large estates that are char- acteristic of the region. How far are large estates the rule in the rural sections of South .\merica? Why? Compare with New Ydrk State farms. V^Tiat are the teaching points of the chamber of deputies. Fd SG, and of other fine buildings like Fd SN and Fd SR? Compare \ alparaiso, Fd \ A, with Rio as to harbor conditions. Where are the ships? Number? What do they carry? To what countries do they go? Note from Fd VA2 the absence of a coastal plain. England and Germany have had a much larger trade with Chile than has the United States. Why? How should the Panama canal affect this trade? Copper mining, an important industry in Chile, is not illustrated by the slides in this collection. In using these slides and the notes accompanying them, the school course of study is not to be over- looked. They emphasize certain features. The teacher must exercise her own judgment in planning her work. Four views of the trans-Andine railroad are cataloged under .Argen- tina, two under Chile. In teaching the topic they may be thus separated or all used here. In any case emphasize its function in commerce and in uniting the people of two countries.
