descent the count risked his life, for
the window was a great height from

Christmas at NetschfiIli.

Capt Amundsen's book on the
Northwest passage. which will soon
be placed on the market by his Mum

OF the Christmas celebration in the
frozen north: "Netschflli Is a jolly
place at Christmas time. Although
the Esquimaux have not the remotest
idea of our Christmas or it's meaning,
they celebrate their winter feast Ia
precisely the same way as we do our
Christmas. There are meat and flsh
stin in the reserve depots, and the
days are devoted exclusively to eating,
drinking and amusement. The people
assemble In monster iglu. where all
festivities take place. This palatial
hall Is large enough TO hold 80 people,
and the entertainments are made up
OF gymnastic exhibitions, magic sing
ing and dancing. In the Esquimaux
gymnasium a stout hide throng takes
the place OF our horizontal bar, but
the exercises are nearly the same as
ours. and the men are never too old to
take part in this PECULIAR amusement"

section of this great, grand, glorious
commonwealth. There are big ones.
little ones, fat ones, lean ones, hand
some ones, u-not on your life!
There's not a homely one in the

And the picture of prosperity is
written all over their handsome coun-
tenances, despite the fact that men in
other walks of life are inclined to COM

things.
But editors seldom worry.
Most editors are Humankind all

cheerfulness is an asset little less val
liable than cold cash, and that optim
ism is a part of the profession.
