YOUNG ESKIMOS DISLIKE CLIMATE Returning to Their Home Next Month Are Peterboro, June 29.--Climate--that unfeeling enemy to progress which has taken so many lives in the ad- vancement of civilization--has won' another battle and has forced two little Eskimo invaders who ventured from their environment in the silent north to retreat broken in health but not in spirit. Ben and Sam, sons of the land of the midnight sun, who came a year ago to Lakefield to learn the white man's ways, so they could return to their native land and give their knowledge to their fellow-country- men, have not been able to stand the change in climate and will soon re- turn to the land in which they were born. An Eskimo: chieftain some two years ago asked the head of the mis- sionaries to send his son to Canada, where he could acquire knowledge to meet the white man on his own ground, so in the fall of last year, Ben, the nine-year-old son of Chief John Ell, head of the Southampton Eskimos, accompanied by Sam Pud- lutt, of the same age, were brought down from the Arctic wastes by the Rev. F. H, Gibbs, a returning mis- sionary, and placed in Grove School at Lakefield, These little lads knew no English, | but soon picked up a few words, and were very intelligent as well as be- ing good sports, which made them friends with all their = school-mates and were the general favorites in the school, Just before Christmas both Ben and Sam were taken ill and had to suspend their studies for some time. Disease after disease ravaged their little bodies. Influenza, pneumonia, measles, tonsolitis, mastoids and adenoids all took their grip on these unacclimatized Eskimos until it be- came apparent that the only outcome of this experiment would result in the. way that every other similiar one has, in death. So on July 16, Ben and Sam will sail homeward from Montreal on the Hudson Bay Company's ice-breaker, the ' "Nascopie." These two little Eskimo lads will be in charge of re- turning missionaries. Instead of be- ing happy at the news of their re- turning home, they are depressed as they hate to leave their new play- mates at the school, as little Ben said, "Me no want to go home--leave all school and boys--too code (cold) in Eskimo." 'Maybe the boss's daughter will re- fuse to marry the snob, after all, What would that Eastern professor advise, then?--Minneapolis Journal. It is easy to tell who owns the car.

American coastguard officers seck definite data on that score, but the mystery. ship has vanished, they claim, since it was seen during the past winter, breaking ice for rum scows in the lower river. The Geronimo has a varied inter- est, In its early days it was number 18 of the Canadian Government lightship service, patrolling the south- western shoals. It was sold to private interests and sincé the advent of pro- hibition in the United States was sold again and absorbed by the rum trade. Last year the Geronimo was cap- tured by a United States coastguard cutter in the Mackinac Straits, Cap- tain Harris Barr, of the border cities and his crew of three men were ar- rested for violation of the Volstead Act, and the boat with its consign- ment of 4,000 cases of beer, whisky and champagne, was seized, The liquor had been consigned to Chicago, it was claimed.

M, R. Green at South Dartmouth, Mass., where the institute short- wave radio research station has been in experimental operation for several years, Work on Dock Started In anticipation of the arrival of the Mayflower within a month, erection of an aricraft dock 140 feet long and 72 feet wide has been started at Round Hill Airport, The foundations have been completed. The Mayflower Is expected to start her flight from Akron, O., early next month, In addition to her operating personnel, an experi- enced ground crew of 25 men will be stationed at Round Hill to han- dle the docking operations, Dur- ing the summer the Mayflower is expected to make flights to various parts of New England in connec- tion with the research in which she will take part. The ability of the airship to hover over one location will prove a great ald to many of the experi- ments, Various types of antenna will be studied as the airship will have Instruments to measure direc- tion and strength of radiated en-| ergy. Experiments also will he carried on in super-audible sound waves, with the object of determining their possible application to aero- plane navigation. Other studies will deal with altitude meters built on radio design, which will give ac- curate readings of heights above the nearest ground, instead of the height above sea level, Will Test Beacons The fog research work, which began several months ago, includes studies of the penetrating charac- teristic of lights of various colors through artificial fog. This work through the use of the Mayflower, will be extended to include radio beacon aids to navigation. The general research program will be in charge of Prof, Edward L. Bowles of the department ur electrical engineering, The Mayflower, the latest of four non-rigid airships built by ine Goody ear-Zeppelin Corporation, has a gas capacity of 86,000 cubic feet, and is inflated with the non- inflammable helfum., She is 128 feet long, 37 feet in dameter, and is powered with two 70-horsepower Ryan-Siemens motors, which glve her a speed of 58 miles an hour and a cruising radius of 550 miles without refueling.
