ILLNESS FORCES ESKIMOS RETURN Eskimo Boys Sent Down To Secure Education Unable To Stand Climate Toronto, Ont., July 13.--~When the Hudson Bay Company's ice-breaker, "Nascopie," sails from Montreal, on July 16, for the great Arctic wastes, her "passenger list" will include the names of "Ben" and "Sam," . two Eskimo boys who are returning home, for their own good, against' their will. The return of the two lads will write another failure in the book of attempts to transfer the Es- kimo from his 'native land to the abode of the white man. : Two years ago an Eskimo chieftain far up in the silent Arctic, asked the head of the missionaries to send his son to the unknown lands to the south, to learn the ways of the white man. "My people haven't a chance un- less they are able to meet the white man on his own ground," he said. And so, last fall, nine-year-old Ben, son of Chief John Ell, head of the Southampton Island Eskimos, ac- companied by his friend of the same age, Sam Pudlutt, of Lake Harbor, Baffin Island, were handed over to the headmaster of the Lakefield pre- paratory school, near Peterboro, Ont. They had been brought down from the north by Rev. F, H., Gibbs, a returning missionary. : "It is of the utmost importance that these boys should not be spoiled and that they should be considered ; re me: Finally, |i in BE the pulmotor from the in every way upon the basis of white Cool Off 'With Some Of These !!!

This part of the capital has acquired importance chiefly since the great earthquake of 1923, Hon. Herbert Marler, Cana- dian Minister to Japan, will arrive to take charge later this year. Tokyo newspapers have given Mr. Keenleyside a warm welcome. Re- presentatives. of this is an editorial article in the Asahi (Morning Sun), one of the two most important pa- pers of Tokyo, which says-- "In welcoming Mr. Hugh Keenley- side, first secretary of the Canadian legation, and first diplomat of Can- ada to be stationed in Japan, we wish to express our. joy at having minis- ters exchanged between Japan and Canada. "Canada is larger and more impor- tant than Australia or South Africa. Her wealth is estimated at 44,000,000,- 000 yen, while the wealth per capita is about 5000 yen. Her industries and trade are developing rapidly. "In 1922 it was decided to station a Canadian minister in Washington, which was done in 1926, and an Am- erican minister was sent to Canada. Two years later similar diplomatic representation was established with France. These are only hatural and proper developments, "We welcome the exchange of min- isters between Japan and Canada, and even regret that it was not done earlier. "There are many good reasons for the establishment of diplomatic rela- tions between the two countries. In recent years our trade with Canada has amounted to from 60,000,000 yen to 80,000,000 yen annually, our im- ports from Canada being double the value of our exports to the Do- minion. We all rejoice at these closer economic relations between Canada and Japan, which are separ- ated only by the waters of the Pa- cific. "Another matter is that about 15,- 000 Japanese reside in. Canada, and their treatment and the question of new emigrants to that country have been important diplomatic problems since 1907, MALES IN SWEDEN DOING HOUSE WOR Shortage of Girls For Do- mestic Service Creates Jobs For Men' Stockholm, July 13.--Males as maids of all work is the latest cat- egory in the list of Swedish em- ployment. It is chiefly the short- age of girls who will not accept domestic service in the country that has led the Stockholm em- ployment bureau, an official insti- tution, to .place young boys as houseworkers. So far the experi- ment has turned out well. It began with a young man who had had some experience as an as- sistant cook in a Stockholm board- ing house. He wanted a job in the country for the summer and was placed in a small summer ho- tel of the Stockholm archipelago as chief cook. He is well paid and likes it. Next, housewives who wanted maids were persuaded to try boys, and they all declare thew- selves satisfied. "My man-of-all-work is a find," sweeps, makes beds, and washes dishes as well as I could wish, I am now teaching him to cook." As it is difficult for young men to get jobs In Sweden, the domexs- tic outlet promises to be welcome. Brantford is spending $16,000 on repairs to its famous antiquity.

It is a coincidence that the two men who are doing the work, Fred Bentley and Maurice Jaynes, were both apprentices at their trades of carpenter and painter when the present front was put in forty years ago.

Congratulations to Mr. Geo. R. i nter ' Kingston.--Mr. George R.

It was a unique experiment. Ben and Sam knew no English, but they were good natured, good sports, and intelligent. In a short while they were unanimously acclaimed as gen- eral favorites by their new white playmates. Shortly before Christmas Ben and Sam were forced to relinquish 'their studies to face an ordeal of sickness, from which they barely escaped with their lives. Hardy, and foreign to sickness in their own land, the two little visitors were soon attacked by | contagious 'diseases, common among the white men. After influenza they "took" pneumonia, measles, tonsilitis. ; and. underwent operations for mas- toids and adenoids. Ben and Sam at least will go back to their isolated homes better able to brave the elements of the Arctic than when they came away, accord- ing to Dr. N. D. Buchanan, of Peter- boro, who attended them. "I think they will be better for having got all these things out of their systems," the doctor said. Prior to sailing for their lonely homes, Ben and Sam were placed on a farm near Pickering, Ont, where they both showed remarkable improvement after their Jong winter illnesses. The boys will be accom- panied on their journey by mission- aries returning to their northern out- posts. "This experiment has been thor- oughly satisfactory' from one point of view," declared Archdeacon Flem- ing, who bore the responsibility and expense of the trip.

They are an intelligent race, and I wish white men could learn the Eskimo language as quickly' as Ben and Sam 'picked up' English." He said he wanted to have them stay with missionaries at Lake Harbor, Baffin Land, and at- tend school there. . There was no school near Ben's heme on South- ampton Island, and it was about 400 miles from Baffin Land. In only one case has an Eskimo been known to survive away from his native haunts, the Archdeacon said. "When Peary brought down nine Eskimos, including a nine-year-old boy, 'Minnie,' they 'all died but the boy. He lived in New York for nine Jeazs, and then returned to Green- and. 3 Peterboro--Having retired to bed Wednesday night in normal health, B. R.
