Old Folks And
 Sick, Sealed Up
 In Homes To Die

Reminiscent of the many strange adventures he met with on his Siberian flights from Alas ka, Frank Dorbandt, aviator, re- called the fact no seriously i'll ol old people were noted among the tribes and upon investigation that due to the primitive life o1 Siberian Eskimo in which each depends upon the other for their very existence-there are nc drones- those seriously i'll and the old are sealed up" in a dwelling place in which they suffocate to death.
 The natives are entirely resigned to this end, Dorbandt said.
 Where the Alaska Eskimo has thin limbs and is small in stature, as 3 rule, the Siberian natives differ ito the extent of having exceptionally sturdy legs and, tho averaging about five foot, ten in cheS in height, they are very rugged with barrel-like chests.
 Fat is delicacy with them and for sweets the children are given dried fish. Dorbandt stated he saw one child, about four years of age, eat four dried fish one af- ter the other then cry for more. Children are adored by the grown ups and beating a child is un- heard of, yet they are trained rig idly and cause little difficulty at any time. For instance: If three children are together and one is given fish, the child will break or tear it into three equal portions and pass it about. They divide their all in this manner.
 The men do the hunting and the women the cooking and sew ing. A child is an expert seam- stress almost before they are able to walk
 For water they melt ice. Seal and fish is the staple food of the coastal natives Inland they sub sist on reindeer. They are great tea drinkers but do not permit water to boil as the steam forms ice particles on the ceilings of their homes which are made of whale bone and skins. One small vent, high in the top. is the only ventilation therefore the interior of their dwellines are stifling- Each home Inns two comnart- ments, the inner and outer Un- like other races, when they leave the home. they are out for hours and likewise, when inside, remain there for long periods.
 Prior to entering they use B small stick with which they slap away all snow from their gar ments. If this were not done their clothing would freeze from the wet snow They then crawl thru the door, on their hands and knees, where they take off their clothing (And we don't mean their coat) This room. separated from the inner compartment, is a sort of a cooling room for the inner one, lit and heated by three oil lamps, is as hot as the envir- ons of Hades, So to speak. At night two lamps are put out the center lamp forever remaining alive.
 Everybody has an iron pipe, from the smallest child up, and the tobacco is strong enough to walk in any mans land The pipes, very similar to Chinese pipes, have long stems and small bowls and are So heavy that they must be held up by one hand

DR.. CURTIS MARBUT
IS CULLUM WINNER
Chief of Federal Survey Bu-
reau Is Presented Geo.
graphical Medal.

In recognition of services of special
distinction in the field of exploration
and geographical research, Or. Curtis
F. Marbut, chief of the soil survey of
the Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, De-
partment of Agriculture, has been
awarded the Cullum Geographical
Medal, conferred by the American Geo.
graphical Society.
DR.. Marbut's extensive studies and
classification of the soils of Europe.
Africa, South America and North
America have furnished an important
contribution to the soil geography of
the world, says a statement issued by
the Department of Agriculture. Ac-
cording to DR.. A. F. Woods, director of
scientific work of the department, there
is probably no man who has a wider or
more intimate knowledge of the soil
types OF so many different countries
than DR.. Marbut.
The medal, which was presented to
DR.. Marbut in New York City today at
a banquet of the society, was estab-
lished by Maj Gen. George w. CuIlunl.
who was president of the American
Geographical Society from 1877 until
his death, in 1892. The first award
was in 1896 to Admiral Robert E. Perry,
discoverer of the North Pole.
On the medal given to DR.. Marbut
are inscribed the words, For his geo.
graphical work on the soil, the 'foothold
of all things"
For many years DR.. Marbut has
supervised the soil survey work of the
department, when about half of the
agricultural land of the United States
has been mapped and described He
has also made technical studies of soils
in other parts Of the world. AT meet
ing of the International Soil Congress
in Leningrad, Russia, next July he will
report on recent study Of the soils of
South America.

States of the Union At the present
rate of growth we will not have to look
far into the future to see population
here of more than million. Surely it
is inconceivable that there should exist
at the very heart of the Nation so large
population entirely devoid of any
right of participation in the councils of
the Nation through representatives of
theis own choosing. This condition
represents a most unwholesome situa-
ton and bad example to the entire

If such a condition of autocraoy is good
for hte Nations Capital, why maintain
republican form of government for

paradox of non-representative I'M
American government of the National
Capital territory under exclusive ma
tional control?
This inconsistency encourages anti
American BolShevism and radicalism
American Bolshevism and radicalism.
It vindicateS that slurring appraise-
ment of the dignity and value of
American citizenship and of American
principles and ideals in which anti
American Bolshevism and radical Com
munism are rooted, the present-day
menace to the fine, strong spirit of
American nationality.
1T disables Uncle Sam in fighting
this unpatriotic indifference or con-
tempt. of which the non-voting evil
is symptom. Uncle Sam appeals to
the patriotism of recreant non-voting
Americans: he denounces and threatens
them. But how can Uncle Sam appeal
to or denounce or threaten with any
effectiveness when he himself at the
seat of Government sets the example
of contemptuous slurring of the basic
principles of representative govern
ment?
How can he lash the stay-at-home
potential voter when he himself arbi-
trarily bars from the possibility of
participating in their National Govern
ment community of half q million
Americans, with over 800, 1000 residents
OF voting age, who constitute one of
the most intelligent, conservative and
progressive communities in the Repub-
lie, and who are urgently petitioning
for the right, privilege and power of
participating on American principles in
their own National Government?
Both the District of Columbia and
the Nation would be decided gamers
through the passage of the pending
amendment and its ratification by the
States. The Congress now possesses full
power to admit to full citizenship the
Hawaiian, the Porto Rican and even
the Filipino, but possesses no such
power regarding the resident of the Dis
trict of Columbia All the proposed
amendment does is simply to give Con-
gresS this required power to be exer-
ciSed in its own good time and in such
matter as Congress itself may deter
mine. This cause Is just and should
therefore succeed without delay"

sire to see it grow into the most beauti-
full and wonderful city of the entire
world. But to me there is nothing in
compatible with this national interest
and the exercise of the exclusive legis-
lation by Congress and a participation
by the residents of the District of CO.
lumbia through their own representa-
tives in the Congress.
aside from any mere local consider
ations, the residents of the District Of
Columbia are just as vitality interested
in matters of national legislation as are
the citizens of any of the States. They
pay national taxes, they obey national
laws, they render military service, and,
in short, bear all of the obligations of
National Government precisely as do
other Americans. 1t must also be con-
coded that they are, to say the least, as
vitality interested in the legislation and
government of the National Capital,
which is their home, as are the citizens
OF any of the States. What they are
proposing is that the resident of the
District of Columbia be recognized as a
national American, entitled to the sama
rights and privileges accorded to every
American holding residence in a State.
Entitled to Have Voice.
when you consider this matter from
the local viewpoint there is added rea-
son for such recognition of the District
resident. He is familiar with the needs
of the District of Columbia and is natu-
rally entitled to have part in the leg
islation and government of the National
Capital community through representa-
tives of his own choosing.
CAS- the administrative and judicial
officers of the District of Columbia are
appointed by the President of the United
States, surely the residents of the Dis
trict of Columbia should have the
privilege of participating in the election
of the President, the appointing power,
who unquestionably would be far more
responsive to the local viewpoint in
making such selections were he elected
partly through the free suffrage of the
District OF Columbia residents.
1.-THE idea of correcting this error
Of omission on the part of the FORE
fathers is not really new. The dangers
of this omission were pointed out in
the early days of the Republic, and have
been emphasized from time to time ever
since with increasing force.
1.-The ned for correcting this anona-
louS condition of voteleSSneSS and no
representation of the residents of the
District of Columbia has become more
pronounced as the population of this
community has increased. The present
population is eStimeted to be about
$4,000, and equal to or greater than

I do not hesitate to say that I
owe every bit Of the wonderful
health now enjoy solely to the use
of Miller's Herb Extract formerly
called Herb juice. Only a short
time ago, after spending $4,000 for
special treatments and showing no
improvement, I said to my husband:
st am afraid won't find any relief
from my constant pains and suffer-
ing" Many days felt so blue and
suffered such pains that I could not
keep from crying. For years my
stomach had been out of order and
Of late everything ate caused me
a lot of suffering. Many times my
husband would say that I did not
act like myself, but how could I
when was simply sick all over,
pains across the back and lower part
Of my stomach kept my nerves all
upset. was under weight and had
to be continually taking a laxative
of some kind. When think of the
days I suffered can't help but say
what blessing this medicine is to
those who are in poor health. MY
stomach trouble has vanished, no
longer suffer with those old pains,
and I eat just everything I want.
Seems that since I used this Herb
Extract, I have taken a new lease
on life as I feel stronger, healthier,
yes, and younger in every way. My
husband also used a few bottles and
says he found it to be the best he
ever used for gas, indigestion, con-
Stipation and general health build
er. Just the other day he said: "I
feel better than I have for years"
Neighbors of mine who use this
medicine also speak very highly Of
1t, and, like myself, are continually
praising it to their friends. See the
