GETS A ROYAL WELCOME
Fleeing Eskimo Meets Danish King on
High Seas and Is Given a
Cigar.

London.-An amusing story Of the
King of Denmarks recent visit TO
Greenland was recently told by NJ. Aa-
gard Of the Danish legation, to menu
bers of the Danish club in London.
AS the royal yacht was approaching
Greenland, q dark speck became visi-
bic on the open sea. 1t proved to be
a solitary Eskimo in his little cayak
(native canOe). The Eskimo came on
board and his loyalty in having braved
the perils Of the sea in such a fral
craft assured him, needless to say, the
warmest of welcomes. The king pre-
seated him with a cigar and what the
Eskimos most highly prize, rifle.
On landing the king described the
incident to the Danish commissioner in
Greenland and asked him who the man
was.
The commissioner in accents Of hor-
ror, replied: THE mans an escaped
convict. He broke prison, stole a
canoe and put to sea. We thought he
had been drowned"

1921 HealthieSt
Year in History

one IN nine of all deaths that have oc-
Cured in 1921. we have in mind for
purposes of comparison the fact that
no longer than ten years ago its ratio
stood at one in four. Deaths from
pneumonia, as reported in these tables
were only 13,70S in 1921, as compared
with 22,243 in 1920 an actual reduc-
ton from this cause alone of $685.
deaths or nearly 40 per cent. If we
take into consideration the greater
number of lives at risk in 1921 we
might say that pneumonia is only
about one-half as serious cause Of
death this year as it was last year.
The most amazing factor in the health
situation of the year is the almost
complete disappearance of influenza
as a cause Of death. Only 1870 deaths
are reported for ten months of 1921,
as against 14,941 for the correspond
ing period of 1920, which was not re-
garded as an epidemic year.
Increase in Suicides.
"But there are always some excep-
tions to be noted, and mention must
now be made of certain causes of
death that are showing increases over
those of last year. Suicides and h0m-
icides amounting to ALA, have in
creased by the number of 1925, or
about four times what the increase
would have been had the rate per
thousand of 1920 remained constant
for 1921 This undoubtedly is a direct
result of war reactions, business de-
preston, unemployment and other
phases Of economic disturbance, and
win largely cure itself as times i'm
prove.
"a matter of no small concern
among the increasing causes Of death
is the steadily mounting mortality
caused by automobiles and other mo-
tor-driven vehicles. The number Of
deaths in 1921 reported by the life in
surance companies that furnished their
figures for the compilation on which
this paper is based was 1924. which
is an increase of nearly Is per cent
over 1920. We talk learnedly of bac-

crease in tuberculosis.

New York.-The year 1927 was the
healthiest year in the history of both
the United States and Canada, ac-
cording to the records of 81 leading
American insurance companies. The
figures for the first ten months indi-
cate lowering of the death rate
among policy holders from $50 per
thousand last year to S.24 per thou
sand in 1921.
Among the striking things shown by
the figures, which cover 100000
persons, are that influenza has al
most disappeared from the United
States and Canada and that pneu-
mOnia has decreased so per cent from
1920. On the other hand, mortalities
due to automobile bacillus
report-show a 10 per cent increase,
with an indication of 10000 deaths
from this cause. Homicides and sui
cides also show large increases.
The figures were analysed by Rob-
ert Lynn Cox at the annual convention
Of the Association of Life Insurance
Presidents, held here last week.
"The 81 companies constituting
these figures transact about so per
cent of the life insurance business of
the country" he said Combining
both ordinary ard industrial life in
surance business, these 81 companies
report that, while they experienced in
the first ten months of 1920 deaths
numbering 205,941, for the same peri
cd this year only 1S4,S60 deaths have
occurred. This shows a reduction of
2l,0S1 in the actual number of their
death losses this year"
