lean missionary learned of his condi-
ton and although when he arrived the
sufferer had broken out with loath-
some sores because of infection and
lack of proper care, this missionary at
once took him in charge and began TO
treat him. Daily for year or more
this missionary carefully bathed the
sores with ointment and tended Joe
Sokonik. While he gave medical at
tention, he taught.
When finally the loathsome disease
had been gotten rid of, Sokonik could
MT move his legs, as they were dou-
bl, d up under him In a position from
which they could not be extricated.
Not dismayed, however, the mission
airy had built for him a sled which
fitted his condition. On this sled and
from it. Joe Sokonik determined to
teach his people. Daily he may be
seen in the village of Kivalina bump
ing along on the rough sled, pulled
either by dogs or by some willing
hands. And daily he teaches at the
school house, giving to the Eskimos of
the village from his store of knowledge
learned from the missionary.
AT the school house his sled is
bumped up the steps to the main floor
and along the main floor to the plat
form. to which it Is lifted. and from
which he teaches. At the close of the
session the sufferer and his sled are
again bumped down the steps and off
to his home. But Joe Sokonik does
not mind; he is teaching his people
and he is profoundly grateful for what
was done for him. Although it might
be suspected he would bemoan his fate
he does not, and is continually us
cheerful as his brothers In more for
tunnte circumstances.
Although the Eskimo towns have nc
chiefs, Kivalina comes nearer to hay
ing head than any other village. and
that leader is none other than the af
flicted Joe Sokonik. Joe Is also the
hunt leader of his village and is an
nually elected to that honor. He is O
splendid leader and holds an excellent
record for craftsmanship. With Joe
SokoHiK in the lead, the people know
their hunt will be successful and he
has not yet failed them. From his
seat in the sled on the deck of shiE
he has brought down and continues to
bring down many a seal, walrus OF
polar bear.
Afflicted as he Is. Joe can only sleeT
by dropping his head forward on his
knees. That and the movement of his
head and arms is the only muscular
motion allowed him since the disease
claimed him.

concerning their customs and their
condition. He especially stressed the
terrific havoc wrought by the influenza
epidemic of last year in which nearly
half of the Eskimo population OF
Alaska was wiped out.
'They seemed TO have no resistance
to the epidemic" said the Presbyterian
secretary. probably their dirty con-
ditions of living and homes helped to
spread the disease, and undoubtedly
their habit of herding together and not
separating the well from the sick ac-
counted in large measure for the in
roads r. de-
If 1t had not been for government
regulation which prevented any traders
going to the infected districts or from
the infected districts to the Eskimos.
it is probable that there would have
| been very few left OF this race at the
end of the epidemic last year, declared
DR.. Marquis.
One peculiar custom noted by the
Presbyterian secretary was the Eskimo
habit of building fences of whale bones
about their cemeteries. 1t used to be
that whalebone was regarded as very
precious, but because of the many sue
cessful substitutes that are now being
used, it has lost much O.. it's CONNER.
cial value. What peculiar property at
taches to the whalebone that it should
be such an excellent material for GENE
terry fences is not known, unless the
scarcity OF other material makes itf
use cheap and desirable.
DR.. Marquis with his daughter from
New York city, made an unsuccessful
attempt to reach Point Barrow, Alaska

the world operated by the Presbyte

continual reminder Of the fact that
they were the bellies of the village and
their mutilated faces advertise this
distinction to all who see them.
"The men of the Eskimo tribe have
few bad habits" says DR.. John A.
Marquis, secretary of the Board of
Home Missions of the Presbyterian
church in the U. S. A., who recently
returned from an extensive six months'
trip to Alaska. But they are inor-
dinately jealous of their women. This
jealousy was formerly so strong that
before they learned better, fathers
would bite off their pretty daughters
noses in order to keep them in the
family longer, but more often an Eski-
mo, after marrying, would bite off the
nose OF his beautiful wife so that she
would no longer have attraction for
other men,"
This nose-biting was practiced fire.
quently not because the Eskimos them
selves were so INSCRIPTIONS about
walking off with their neighbors' wives,
but because men from other races
would happen along and be unduly at
tracted. According to DR.. Marquis,
there are many old women today who
walk about honored and respected, and
as proud as queens, because their
noses are no more. Yet the custom Is
dying out and is not now so widely
practiced, probably because the mod

Alaska and the younger bellies raise
objection to having their noses abbre-
waited.
Despite the fact, however, that Euro
pean and American influence have
made some changes. the life and Ian
guage Of the Eskimo still remain very
much like those Of the stone-age in
habitants of Europe, of whom they are
said to be the last surviving represen-
tatives. One peculiar feature noted by
DR.. Marquis was that the Eskimos,
while living in groups or villages, APP
pear to have no chiefs or rulers. For
the hunt they elect a chief who Is chief
for the hunt, and when that is over
his authority ends until the next hunt.
This Presbyterian secretary noted In
one village, however, Kivalina, Alaska,
an Eskimo who seemed to have an I'M
usual degree of authority. This was
especially unusual because the man In
question was q cripple and was con-
fined continuously to a seat In rough
sled which had been constructed for
him. His name was Joe Sokonik, DR..
Marquis learned and he was school
teacher. Investigating, it was found
! that he had remarkable story.
Some years previous he had been
taken down with serious illness in
which. because Of the filthy conditions
surrounding the homes of the Eskimos
he went through much suffering. AS
