It's a Fine Dish, No Doubt, but Your
Guests Might Not Like II.
The main food of the Alaskan Indian
Is meat and fish. In the winter many
people 90 not 81 the fish at all; sip
ply leave them in the house for two or
three days and her eat them raw.
Women always serve the food and al
ways see that others are satisfied be-
fore beginning their own meal. They
have TO be very careful not to spill
anything, for that would bring bad
luck to the one whom they are serving.
When d person is invited to eat In
the village 1t Is considered bad man
ners TO eat all that is before him. He
must leave enough to take home to
the members of the family who did
not come. The host generally gives
his guest a piece of dried fish to hold
the food which he is to take home.
The fish is broad and fat, about one
half inch thick. and the bundle is
carried away openly without any at
tempt at hiding 1t. In the summer
berries, fruit and roots are added to
the diet. and berries are frozen in the
fall to last through the winter.
Since white people came tlour and
canned goods hive changed the food
very much. 1t is easy to have lee
cream for dessert any time. There is
no cream about 1t, but tallow and ber
ries are mixed with snow, sometimes
fshfs added to 1t, and when 1t is fro
gen 1t makes q dle dish.-Southerp

about $4,000 Of the bonds voted for
good roads which can be used equally
