nt ACN TONG a ss Cs ee a Cans: 2 NERS Arctic Explorer Declares It Gives Him That Certain Finesse . The story of an Eskimo gone mo- dern 1s told by Philip H. Godsell, Arctic explorer, writing In the cur rent issue 'of Natural History, of- ficial organ of the American Mus. eum of Natural History, He relates how "Mike saw the factor at Aka- lavik, at the mouth.of the McKen- gie River, using a portable type, writer and asked him to order one for him "What really eauscd my, eyes to open wide," says Mr. Godsell, "was the sight of this Eskimo squatted on an upturned milkbox pounding tho keys of a portable typewriter. With an appreciable sense of what Hollywood _ calls atmosphere' ho gported a navy blue suit and a pair of smoked glasses perched at a ra. kizh angle on his nose. "As | watched, the Eskimo put the letter he had written fn an en- velope and guve it to a boy who ran off with it. Later there was a tap on the sealskin tupek and the boy returned and handed another letter to the man fn front of the typewriter. | thought indexd civil- {zation had come to the Arctic until tho factor explained matters" WITH ELECTRIC LIGHA, TOO It seems that in an effort to ape tho white men and. impress the oth. er Huskies, two chiefs had bought typrewriters and spent many hours (with straight faces) exchanging notes that were meaningless jumb- les of letters, figures and punctua. tion marks, Mr! Godsoll also tells of another Eskimo who purchased an electric lighting system to illum. inate his 1S-foot driftwood igloo. Now he can cause the "moon to en-_ ter and leave his house at will."

What Science dee Doing TEST "ROYAL JELLY" After a year and a half of chem- ical analysis, University of Toron- to chemists are gieparing for an experiment which will tell if they have succeeded in breaking down royal jelly -- the mysterious sub- stance on which queen bees are nurtured into the larva state to make them rulers of the hive. Success of the experiment may --forecast synthetic production of some | the. precious fluid which scientists believe can be used bene- ficially on retarded children and for other human diseases. fl sien "TO IMPROVE VEGETABLES By measuring appetites of to- mato plants in 'various types of _ #0il, Prof, Stanley S.

No other disease caus- es such widespread suffering and crippling among all ages and class- es. Much of the misery and in- validism is unnecessary and is dir- ectly due to many strange Ideas abroad concerning 'rheumatism' "and 'arthritis.'
