Ottawa, April 2.--For most of Cai this has been a very pleas- ant ter not excessively cold, no very bad storms, more employment than in former years. However, with many of the Indian popula- tion, numbering 105,000, the sea- son has not dealt quite so kindly. Much sickness among the Red men, inhabitants of the north is reported, .and tidings coming through from one isolated band after another anxiety to. the officials of the tment of Indian affairs who do their utmost to make the lives "of these wards of the government | as happy as possible. The latest reports haye come from the posts along the shores of James Bay where sickness is caus- ing much trouble, Hunting and fishing were the occupations of the red men when Jacques Cartier sail- ed up the St. Lawrence and they gee no reason why they should not follow these callings in the present generations. They have cartain districts where their ancestors hunted and when winter comes, to many of them there is an urge to go to these same localities, often a hundred or more miles from any white settlement or medical assist- ance. The Indians with their wives and children fare forth to these isolated parts with little or no provisions, confident of living off the country as they go along. The women snare rabbits and the men trap and hunt larger game. Things go not too badly until some of the family fall sick. © Often it is the head of the family and if game is none too plen- tiful, hunger soon faces them, The influenza epidemic which gpread over a considerable portion of Canada and United Sttes this winter also reached up among the Indians of the north. Many have died and on some occasions word of their plight reached civilization only because of the extensive win- ter flying that is being carried out in. connection with the exploration and prospecting activities of min- ing companies. Numbers of In- dians suffer from tuberculosis and they fall an easy prey to influenza - and accompanying diseases, The department of course can- not supply doctors for every band of Indians. It "caches" hundreds of dollars worth of medical supplies with the various missionaries work- ing among them. It instructs any Hudson Bay factor to issue supplies to Indians in want, and charge it to the Dominion government. Dr. E. L. Stone is the medical superin- tendent and he keeps in touch with the outposts of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police who wireless ap- peals should Indians be found in want. Every effort Is made to meet the need of the situation and the airplane is a very present help to the red men. * Nearly all the Indians in those northern parts are "treaty Indians." The British government took the position that no land was to be taken away from these aboriginal inhabitants except through treaty and the Canadian government car- ries this out. When Ontario took a large tract of land around James Bay, it did so by treaty with the Indians which the Federal govern- ment arranges. The terms provide that a reserve equal to 640 acres for every five souls be set aside in the territory and that every Indian, male or female, get $4 a year as long as = 'grass grows or water flows." One hundred and twenty-eight thousand square miles in Ontario near the Manitoba boundary remain which Indians have not ceded over by treaty and accordingly receive no treaty money. Department offi- clals plan visiting the natives there during the summer to arrange a treaty and plan a reserve. In the section around James Bay from whence reports have come that many Indians are sick, there are about 1,600. "When I was there last summer," said one of the officials who paid the treaty money, "the Indians were fairly healthy. Ag soon as the department officials arrive, however, these natives hurry to the post to be doctored. They are lectured on how to avoid the spread of tuberculosis and protect their children from 'it, but I am afraid they pay very little attention to 'what we say. , "The Indians are passionately fond of being out in the rain and it is impossible to keep even those suffering from tuberculosis from going out and getting drenched. They kept coming to us for medi- cine. You are not sick I told one of them. "I know," he replied, tsgot sick now but want some medi- cine so not be sick after you go away.' APRIL IS DECREED A WEDDING MONTH SAYS DAN CUPID London, April 2.--April has be- come a fashionable Society wed- ding month. Some of the most im- ortant weddings of the Spring ave been arranged to take place shortly after Easter. Hon. Madeline Kinnaird, young- er daughter of Lord and Lady Kin- naird, and Hugh Gough, only son of the rector of St. Ebbe's, Oxford, are to be married this April. The wedding will take place in the chapel of Rossie Priory, the Kin- nairds' fine home a few miles from Dundee. Miss Kinnaird is the younger sister of Hon. Anne Kin- paird, who caused a sensation a few years ago when she turned her back on Society and went to live in the slums. Another wedding of interest is that of Miss Eve Cecil, twin daughter of the 'Lord Bishop of Exeter and Lady Florence Cecil, who will be married to Commander Richard Shelley, R.N., al Exeter Cathedral soon after Easter. Many of the Cecils will be there, for the Bishop of Exeter is Lord Salis- bury's brother, and is still called by his youthful nickname of "Fish" by: some .of his intimates. Change from Mill to Deliv- ery Prices Viewed with Skepti New York, N. Y., April 2.--"BEd- itor & Publisher" says in its cur- rent issue: "The change from mill price to delivered price in the new con- tracts offered to publishers by In- ternational Paper Company fis 'viewed with concern' by the paper committee of the American News- paper Publishers' Association, be- cause the change was made known in a bulletin issued this week by the Association reviewing the com- mittee's findings on the newsprint situations, ¢ "Objection was also made in the bulletin to the short time allowed publishers to decide whether to continue their contracts with the International under the new five year form in the event that the combany should raise its price for 1930 or subsequent years. "The mew five-year contract states prices for the current year, but allows International to revise prices for 1930 and subsequent years upon notice to purchasers be- fore Nov. 30, of the preceding year. Purchasers are permitted to ter- minate the contract if any raise in price is announced, providing they make their decision within 10 days after receiving notice from Inter national. In its review of this sec- tion of the contract the A.N.P.A. bulletin reads: "It is suggested that purchasers should not be restricted by a ten- day period in which to give notice but should have at least 60 days within which to decide so impor- tant a question. "It will be noted that no maxi- mum price is provided and also the price be not increased. ROBERT GRAY IS DEAD AT CHATHAM Influential Resident Was Formerly of Gray-Dort Automobile Company Chtham, April 2.--Robert Gray, who for the past forty-five years has been one of the most influential men of this community, passed away Sunday morning, after a ser- fous illness extending over six months, Death was caused by anaemnia and heart failure. His father, the late William Gray, came here from Scotland in 1850, and established a small blacksmith shop. From that modest beginning sprang the wil- liam Gray Carriage Works, a firm which became known over every part of Canada. The early death of his father placed the responsi- bility on Robert Gray who continu- ed the development of the concern until it became Chatham's biggest industry. In 1863 the name of the firm was changed to William Gray and Sons, In 1898 it was made a limited company, and in 1911 it amalgamated with the Manson Campbell Company under the name of the Willam Gray and Sons --Campbell Company, Limited. In 1915, the company started the manufacture of automobiles under the name of Gray-Dort, and at one time employed 800 men. This com- pany a few yeas ago went out of business. Robert Gray was born on Feb- ruary 3, 1862, and lived practical- ly all his life in Chatham. 'WOODEN FAIRY TALES' USED AS DECORATIONS Ottawa, April 2.--Indian artists from among the Pacific Coast tribes of British Columbia, who learned totem pole lore in their na- tive villages, have been' pressed in- o service to assist in decorating ne of the new public rooms of the enlarged Chateau Laurier hotel here, and their handiwork has as- sisted in producing a decorative ef= fect which is not only unique but which will appeal to every student of Canadian lore. In using totem poles and the "Indian motif" as the decorative feature of the Tea Room in the new wing of the Chateau Laurier now in course of completion, the Canadian National architects gave preference to distinctively Cana- dian designs. Not only are the double row of columns at each side of the room carved as totem poles, but they are painted in hues as close as possible to those of the original Indian Poles. While "it was impossible to use the exact ochres and other native coloring materials which the Pacific Coast Indians employed, with the assist ance of the Indian artists choice was made of modern colors as near as possible to those of Indian days. The totem pole of the Pacific Coast Indian was in the nature of his family crest or coat of arms, telling, by the manner in which the earved figures were placed, the extent to which a chieftain, clan or tribe were identified with the leg- ends told by tle carvings on the pole. Sometimes the pole told of a departed chieftain's prowess in battle; his skill as a hunter or of his dealings with some of the myth- ical "Sky Beings' in whom the In- dians believed and trusted for their welfare. These "wooden fairy tales" as they have sometimes been recalled, recount all manner of In- dian myths and legends to the stu- dent who can read their message, and during recent years a deter- mined effort has been made, through the co-operation of the Do- minion Government and the Cana- dian National Railways, to restore the best of the poles found in such famed Indian villages as Kitwanga and New Hazelton, on the Jasper- Prince Rupert route of the Cana- dian National Railways.
