~ RCFESS OR STEFANSSON
reports the discovery of a
tribe of Esquimos in MacKen-
zies Land who have red hair.
These people have no history that
they can recount.
There are about two thousand of
them. They have degree of intel
ligence which the regular Esquimos
do not possess. They have red hair,
blue eyes and a tendency to argue
about religion. Some of them are
artistically freckled
Many of their names begin with
Mac, and they have a way of adj
dressing each other with something
that sounds like "Hoot Mont"
Oats grow farther north than
wheat. Whether these Esquimos are
fed on oats or not Professor Ste
fanssorf does not say.
But the world will not rest easy
on Professor Stefansson's report
until we find whether haggis and
oatmeal have played their parts in
the hirsute color scheme of this
tribe of Esquimos, who not only
have red hair, but are red headed.

WHEN we find that the price
wv of roast turkey has risen in
the best hotels until for a
half portion you pay seventy cents,
it seems certain that few people can
have turkey away from home.
Did you ever see such half por-
ton?
A lot Of dressing, three or four
little pieces of dark meat, each
about the size of a walnut, and two
slices of white meat, cut amazingly
thin. And all for seventy cents.
The poor can not afford to eat
turkey at this price.
And yet it makes us wonder
whether the rich have grabbed it
all, or whether a great multiplicity
of causes are at work to put up
prices.
In few years the population has
increased twenty millions.
Maybe fewer turkeys are raised
than formerly.

leaving the farms and coming to the
cities.
And yet some politicians tell you,
glibly and without blushing, that If
you vote right they will fix the tar

Who pays the tariff on hotel
turkey?
You.
Can a politician alter that?
Not unless he calls personally on
the hotel man and points out the
injustices to the purchaser, of tur-
key at seventy cents per half por-
ton
