The January number of the Bureau of Education Journal. The Eskimo was released from the Nugget press yesterday. As usual, the little jour- nal is interesting from cover to cover Practically the entire space is taken up in the rendition of an ancient Els kimo legend relating to famous character in Eskimo lore known as Ki-ya-yuk-tua-lo look, who in the Ian @uaGe of the native narrator, Joe Sek- onik, of Kivalina, was the Father of Kivalina. The adventures of the hero are strange and wonderful and in many ways comparable to the ancient Grccian epics which provided such in teresting diversion in our youthful days. The author, Sekonik is said to have spent much time in gathering the tale of the Eskimo hero from the old people of the Kivalina section who are still conversant with the old Tpa- nee lore.

ORGANIZING WAR
SAVINGS SOCIETIES
IN CHURCHES,

Religion found its first freedom
IN America. That freedom is now
in danger.
Every church and the pastor OF
every church is called upon to
protect this freedom-nOt alone by
sending sons, but by organizing
War Savings Societies in the
church to back up those boys with
money to buy munitions, food aud
clothing, that mean victory.
This appeal is to the ministers
of the Gospel, because their intu.
ence now is of supreme importance
10 organizing the whole Of Ameri.
ca in a wonderful campaign Of
Thrift to win the war;
An aroused congregation is a
"do something" congregation.
There ls no room for self compla
cency in such times as these. The
church has a vital work to per
form. Preach the gospel of saw.
ings. 1t is good doctrine aud will
make for happiness and content
ment of the people 10 the years to
come, as we'll as help win the war
today.
And it is not enough to preach
savings alone. Your congrega
tion must be organized into a War
Savings Society, conscious OF Its
own privilege OF service, to make
this nation wide savings campaign
effective.
Churches, where people are
gathered together every week,
moved by kindred spirit, are the
logical centers for these societies.
Don't say "let the Sunday School
do it". Don't say "let the Young
Peoples Society do it,. Don't
say "let the Public Set ool do it".
Organize these and the church |
membership as well.

An after school study hall.
with teacher in charge has
been instituted at the James
John High for the benefit of
those who wish to prepare their
lessons at that time. The room
is open as long as the students
wish to stay. is kept warm and
above all, quiet. Altho the hall
has been established but a short
time, the students are already
beginning TO avail themselves of
this opportunity for quiet study.
