ESKIMO HAS EAR FOR MUSIC

Compositions.

Knut Rasmussen and Friatiof Nam

who was sent north years ago by
Lady Franklin to find her husband.
have given To the world valuable
facts about the customs and lives Of
the EslSimos. Christian Leden's
unique contribution from the arctic
regions is in the field OF music. For
years he studied and faithfully tran.
scribed the lnnuit melodies Each
Eskimo, he says, is obliged 10 COM
pose his own song. and no person
may sing the song of another with
out first obtaining permission. The
mother has her cradle song. infinitely
low and sweet. The hunter has his
song OF the chase. clear and bold.
Even the bad man OF the tribe has
his song. and II was quick and ap.
propriately brazen.
Harmony has not been developed
among the Esklmos. They sing only
In unison But their melodies are
weird and wistful. often consisting
of only two CT three motives, which
are strangely effective
1t is during the long polar night
that the Eskimo has time 70 rest in
his igloo ana sing his songs.

GO ABROAD FOR OPPORTUNITY
Go West" Slogan Now Passe; Better
Chance for Young Man in the
Foreign Countries.

Probably no saying OF Horace Gree
ley, the beacon light of multitudes of
tlree-quarters of century ago. was
more widely read, more generally fol-
lowed. or longer remembered than his
continually reiterated exhprtation,
young man, go Westw
That, says the San Francisco Chron-
icle, was a satisfactory way of re-
lieving what was then thought con-
gestion of population in eastern COM
munties, but ii no longer answers the
purpose. Today the place for the en-
terprisipg young man TO look for is
in some undeveloped foreign country.
Ii will be a new thought to most of US
that the time has come when we must
consider emigration as well as immi-
gration--that there are lands Of oppor-
tunity other than our own.
This was emphasized recently by
Frank ID. Waterman, name well
known to those who do not habitualls
use a typewriter. with special refer
ence to the centenary celebration
which begins at Rio Janero, Brazil,
next September. 1t has become a ne
cessity With US. as * has long been
with overpopulated Europe. to seek
outlets in foreign countries for the sur
plus products of our workers. The
one way to do IL is by commercial mis-
sionaries going TO foreign countries
while still forming their minds and
staying there. That is the way Europe
has built mp trade in undeveloped
countries. That is the way we must
adopt If we expect to successfully COM
pete with those countries.

that when a person became worked

An antidote to acid was an alkaline
