' Washington.--The Eskimo, according to dispatches from the Far North, Is slowly changing. Each year more and more of these remote guardians of the last frontier are adopting white man's ways. ' In Alaska and western Canada many Eskimos have broken,away from hunting. and fishing to meet personal food Snd clothing wants and have become ! trappers and traders. In Greenland ! and northern Labrador the Eskimo j has clustered around the mission sta- j tions, adopting the white man's style of house/rather than sod huts, igloos and skin tents, and bartering skins for the white man's canned foodjfclrflrearms, clothing-and phonographs. <' "The Eskimos were the first people met by Europeans on American shores, but they are still among the least known, and certainly the least seen, of all native American tribes," says a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "Scandinavians came in contact with Eskimos In Greenland and in Labrador In the Tenth and Eleventh centuries. Since that time the Eskiniftc' m«tn contacts with t^v whits ins.n have been through explorers, missionaries, police officers, and occasional trappers and prospectors. "Eaten of Raw Fish.* "The name Eskimo is said to have been given by Biard in 1611 (in the form "Excomminquois'). It means 'eaters of raw fish.' "Considering their limited numbers, the Eskimos cover a tremendous range. The total Eskimo population of the world has been estimated at only 35,- 000, but Eskimo villages can be found here and there throughout the coasts of Arctic America from eastern Greenland and northern Labrador to the westernmost parts of Alaska, and even on the tip of Asia across the Bering strait. a "Throughout this distance, more than .",000 miles, the Eskimo speaks one language, a strange tongue which requires a vocabulary of 10,000 words. As in Chinese, inflection is very important. Few outsiders learn it, although a 'pidgin English' has sprung up which some expforers and missionaries mistake for the EsUilPO language. "Nearly altaEskhnos live on or near the cpast because they get most of their food from the sea. They raise no vegetables, supplementing their meat diet in summer with wild berries and roots. In summer they hunt land animals and birds, as a rule, and in the-winter they live on <sea mammals and fish. ' 'Where least affected by the white man's civilization--along the Arctic coast of Canada and in the islands north of Hudson hay--the Eskimo is perhaps the healthiest and happiest person on earth. The village is the 1'truest social unit. There are no chiefs or rulers. 'Leading men' have influence but no authority. Large animals caught ire shared with others, and personal property is secure, for one tribe never makes war against another. Along many of the inlets- of the Northwest territories in Canada the Eskimo still hunts with bows and arrows, and harpoons, In little skin boats, or kayaks. Live In Dugouts, ^Wfelle snow houses, or igloos, are always associated with Eskimos, aliout half the Eskimo wtfHd does not know them at all tgloos are almost never used ih Labrador or In Alaska. Where the white man's frame house Is not obtainable the native Eskimo lives in a dugout covered with sod, the roof being supported by poles or animal bones. In the summer the skin tea*, or tupic, is used, particularly while on hunting forays. "The igloo, perhaps the most unusual of all , dwellings, Is made of flocks of show, with a clear piece of ice for a window. Beds and benches are of ice, with warm furs on top. A shallow pan made of stone or Iron, shaped somewhat like a dustpan, Is used for a lamp or stove. Along the flat side is a dry moss for a wlck. Inside the pan Is seal oil. The cooking kettle Is suspended above the pan. Iron kettles and pans are of recent use, and are acquired from the white man, because the Eskimo has no iron, and very little wood. "In Greenland and Labrador Eskimos have known white men <for nearly 900 years, but there are still, in some parts of the Arctic, Eskimos who have seen only an occasional explorer. White men's diseases have killed more than two-thirds of all Eskimos since the first contacts with them, but the population#is now about stationary., "Except In Alaska, Eskimos do not live along regular steamship or tourist routes. The Eskimo seldom can be Induced to leave his northland, and the few who have been lured away have returned as quickly as possible." FOR RENT--7-room furnished house; electricity and running water.

There you will find all forms of it. The loveliest forms M life naturally belong to youth, children of the sun, active, slender and brown. It sometimes Is almost startling to see light blue eyes looking out of deeply tanneid faces surniouated by yellow hair. But youth Is by no means all you find on the beaches. Look in front of the cabanas. There you will see those of more mature age preparing for their place in the beach solar system. Some of the males are especially noticeable. As a protection from searing rays, they carefully are annolnting bulging bodies with cocoa butter. They look i little like over-ripe tomatoes, with oil dressing, t , • • .« 1 , .But we are a bit more charitably toward plump figures than we were in days gone by. Net Jong ago we met Dr. Edward Farrell, the dental surgeon who plays big league baseball in the off-season when the patients aren't j biting, and he said tp us, "I see your chest is slipping," a remark which must have been Intended as humorous exaggeration. We may no longer havft the greyhound figure which distinguished otJr youth, but we certainly carry none of the excess poundage found on certain of our friends and acquaintances. We figure no man as plump who connts less than three cbint. We have, oto various occasions, gene so far as to discuss the matter of diet No man or woman in the world Is difficult to talk to if you start one of three or four subjects^fciist mention operations in general, sinus trouble or diet, and both strong, silent persons and basniui, inarticulate persons become as babbling brooks. The question of diet loosens the tongue beyond the power of strong drink. Everyone either has tried or thought of trying some diet and is anxious to discuss it Moreover, everyone is fanatical In his desire to convert you to the particular diet he happens to favor. Diet, after all, is a simple matter. All you have to do is to step eattag everything you Uke. To be sure:, there are some who favor the exercise method. This is as bad, or worse. Prof. Artie McGovern, for instance, likes to get some dignified citizen extended on a hardwood floor and then induce him to take long Imaginary rides on a phantom bicycle. It certainly is a silly looking pastime. Prof. William Muldoon used to get unsuspecting clients, miles from food and shelter, on horseback and then remove the horse. Prof. William Brown has many of the same ideas. Even Gene Tunney is . likely to coax some absent-minded friend far up or down a deserted wood road, miles from a taxicab and a telephone. • • * • Recently we met Daniel Howley, who spends his summers managing the Cincinnati baseball club. After one look, we said to him: "We don't see so much of you any more. What have you been doing? Dieting?" "That diet stuff Is the bunk," responded Mr. Howley, whose equator has shrunk from the circumference of a barrel to that of an orange. "All you have to do Is to toss a medicine ball to somebody about 247 times each morning and then take a little tenmile stroll in the afternoon. You can eat all you want, except perhaps you'd better lay off sugar, white bread, gravy, potato, desserts, and stuff like that." So that's all yoy have to do. We gazed admiringly at Mr. Howley. He certainly looked like the tallest and sllmest of movie heroes. But It might not be becoming to us to be that slender. We have not Mr. powley's height. * • • No, when you haven't the height to carry it, you don't want to be too thin. A tall tapering mast is all right, but saw It off, and It does not look half so. imposing as a smokestack. Besides, we are not really plump--just healthy looking.
