The Eskimo are the greatest OF all
mask makers. During their religious
ceremonials they impersonate their own
various gods, wearing masks for the
purpose, but the most curious thing is
that they wear little masks on their
fingers as well as big ones to cover
their faces. These finger masks, TIE
like Of which are unknown anywhere
else in the world, usually represent the
sun. They are of wood carved with a
laughing or weeping face and the rays
Of the sun are represented by white
hair from the belly of the wild rein
deer set around as a fringe. The sun is
the most important Of the Eskimos' di-
whites and the principal object Of the
winter ceremonial is to persuade the
sun god to come back from the south.

in the Appointment
of Pollock


Special to Daily Leader.
Washington, D. c., Dec Cyrus
Leland, for twenty-five years a polit-
ical boss in Kansas. viii take to To
peka with him a rose to be presented
to Miss Lucille Pollock with the com
piiments Of the president Of the Unit
ed States Miss Pollock is aged If
teen years, and is the laughter Of
Judge John c. Pollock It would per
haps be overstating the case to say
that Miss Pollock is responsible for
her fathers appointment, but that she
materially assisted him admits OF no
doubt. Tho story illustrates how
badly the men overplayed their hands
who made charges which they failed
to substandate.
Miss Pollock lives with her father
and mother at the Copeland hotel, in
Topeka, which is the fountain source
of Kansas purity Every day while
the contest has been in progress in
Washington she has read the Topeka
newspapers, which told of the numer-
Gus charrcs rejecting on her fathers
character. Miss Lucille finally wrote
her father a letter It read this way:
My Dearest, Darling Papa Why
don't you go and see the president
and tell him all about these nasty
charges? l know if he could see and
talk to my papa he would not believe
the mean things they are saying.
Mr.. Leland called at the white
house yesterday morning about 1O;30
and was given an audience with the
president After he had presented
what he believed was convincing proof
that the men who had been criticis-
ing Judge Pollock in several opinions
were now attempting to stab him in
the back he referred to the personal
character of Judge Pollock and the
great harm that had been done him.
1t was a sentimental presentation,
and before he had concluded he
quoted from memory the letter Judge
Pollock had shown him from one Of
his partisan admirers. The president
as Mr. Leland started to leave the
room, took from a bouquet ON his
table a rose:
Il want you to present that rose
to Lucille" he said, "and tell her the
president sends it to her with his
compliments"
Mr.. Leland wrapped the rose in
some tissue paper and put it in his
pocket. While he was yet standing
in the reception hall, Secretary Loeb
gave the president a communication
from Attorney General KAox It
briefly recited that he had carefully
Investigated the applications on file
and recommended that either Judge
w. A. Johnston, chief justice of the
Kansas supreme court, or Judge Iohn
c. poiGch, associate justice, be ap-
pointed to the vacancy caused by the
promotion OF Judge Hook With The
memory Of the child and the rose up'
permost, the president, without furth-
er hesitation, said to his secretary:
"Include the name Of Judge Pollock in
