DR.. briggs TO LIVE IN ARCTIC
CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE

At Point Hope he came ashore and
laid his plans before his people.
Sixty of them signifed their willing
ness to join him. Owing to the n.
cessant gales that sweep around Cage
Lisbourne and the perpendicular rock
walls that fringe the shore for many
miles there, the country is unin-
habited. In fact the Eskimos have
superstitious dread of the place, but
they have faith in their old leader.
Isolation for Eskimo Seems Desirable
'The success of the colony is
matter for conjecture, but it has
much in its favor, Notwithstanding
its location. In the first place it is
isolated and can hardy be spoiled by
contamination. In the second place
the Eskimos, like almost all primi-
tive peoples, are naturally communis-
tic. Nor will they be starved out.
Off at sea is the finest whaling
ground in the Arctic. Among the ice
foes seals abound, while polar bears
are very plentiful. On land the
white fox, the lynx and the ermine
are everywhere and there are many
caribou back in the interior. Every
spring the rocks that overhang the
sea are alive with wild fowl of every
description and eggs may be gathered
by the boatload. In fact it would be
difficult to find more fortunate place
or place more suited to the pur-
poses of its founder than the site
chosed for this colony. Every sum-
mer when the ice opens up and the
ships come in the furs and whalebone
that have been taken during the year
will be traded off or shipped out tc
pay for the cloth and flour that must
be shipped in. All will share alike
in the little community. There will
be no one to make a profit on any
transaction.
New Settlement Lonliest place in WorlC
''This is the dream of the founder
and those who known the spirit o.
the doctor do not question his sin
cerity. To him riches and the nee
essaries of civilized society are re
pulsive. 1t is in the heart of the OLE
communistic Eskimo society tina
this old man is at home and happy
1t is to save a portion of this olt
society in it's primitive simplicit.
that he has taken his people ninet.
miles away from the nearest settle
ment and planted his colony in th
lonliest place in the world. Befor
leaving the civilized world DR.
briggs superintended the publication
of his book, "Tales From Oldes
America. !" 1t is a story of hi
people, their history and their my
thical yarns which the old missionar
often heard told by the light of tn
seal oil lamps as he sat and smoke
! with them in their igloos here. H
ex pected that the publication of thi
book would bring in funds to help hi
colony but in this he was sadly dis
appointed. This in brief is the stor
of the foundation of the worlds lat
est lite Utopia. Like many prom
, ising predecessor it will doubtles
succumb when the waves of moder
) life begin to beat around and upon
q n earnest. 'As Ion g as there is foo
no one will starve, said DR.. Drigg
as he bade his friends at Point Hop
n goodbye. If there is going to b
any starving we'll all stare tC
gether, he added with enthusiasm
