ESK|MOS BELIEVE
DEAD LIVE AGAIN
All Infants Are Named for
Late Relatives to Per-
petuate Them.
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

Relationship apparently is an ex-
tremely complicated affair among the
Eskiinos who inhabit Baffin Land, Files
mere Land and the country between
Hudson Bay and the Arctic.
Thus a small boy may be his fathers
mother his mothers mother -in-law and
his sisters. grandmother. His father
may always call him Mother" and he
always addresses his father as my
son" from the time he is able to talk.
And it is all simple enough once it is
understood, Right Rev. Arsene Tllr-
quetil, project apostolic of the Hudson
Bay region, has just reported to the
Catholic Anthropologtca Conference at
Catholic University here. Father Tur-
quetil has spent nearly 20 years in the
desolate Northern tundra, extending
more than 100000 square miles and
with an average population of one hu-
man being for each 400 square miles,
and has secured q considerable amount
of information on the customs and be-
liefs Of one of the least known peoples
on earth.
Name Means Everything.
As for the apparent curious relation
ship, he reports to the conference:
For the Eskimo the name means
everything. The name given an infant
is that of deceased relative. If q
small boy receives the name of his
grandmother, his father will address
him as Mother and his mother as
Mother n-law.' The Eskimo does not,
however. believe in a real reincarnation
of the soul. But he says, the dead
person lives again through his name.
He is glad to see his name preserved
among his own people, and these in
turn are glad to perpetuate the name of
the ancestor whom they loved"
Without a name q person Is not con-
sidered an individual If child dies
before a name is given it, there is no
mourning. Because Of the scanty food
and hard life of the tundra, female In
fants frequently are killed. This is
considered perfectly proper, because the
child marked for slaughter is not
named. If it bore name, the killing
would be considered murder. Father
Turuuetil reports, and the slayer pun
ished according to the law of the tribe.
A child usually is named when it is
eight days old.
Betrothed After Naming.
after the giving Of the name
Father Turquetil says, comes betrothal,
commercial contract. Part of the
price agreed upon is paid at once. The
balance will be paid when the two who
are betrothed reach maturity. Female
infanticide is practiced only among the
very small, isolated groups, where no
one can learn of the birth of the child
or ask for the female infant in mar
rage. On the other hand, we find the
grown-up men buying and paying in
advance for an expected infant, under
the condition that it will be a girl
with the intention of making her his

were recently 1873 boys and only sc

wives anywhere"

til says, has what appears to be crude

Stop Bad Breath

Thousands Of people afflicted

They do that which dangerous

culture to the casual observer, but when
conscientious craftsmanship and q
mental alertness in adapting themselves
to their hard circumstances which Is
astonishing. Describing one Of his ex-
periences, he says:
THE people pointed out to us a rec
tangular, flat-bottomed boat. The frame
was made Of seal. walrus or caribou
bones, covered with Sealskin The sail
was also Of sealskin. The primitive
vessel belonged to a family that had
just arrived.
Family Drifts with Ice.
This family was camped upon the
ice, hunting seals, having nothing but
rifle and harpoon. Drifting with the
ice, they reached an island 40 miles
from the mainland. The island is an
absolute desert. Ammunition was soon
exhausted and their rifles became use
less. Needles, spears and fishhooks soon
gave out They had no matches. The
hunter adapted himself to this new en-
vironment by returning to an age of
stone. Flint and cut bones suficed for
him. Thus he passed 10 years looking
out, unaided, for himself and his fam
lily, which increased as the years went
on. Finally he dreamed of returning
to his country, and out of the bones
and antlers of game he built his boat"
Hunting. he reports, is the predomi-
nant element in the thoughts, folklore
and religion of these wandering people.
"The Eskimo" he says, thinks of his
future life as material paradise abound
ing in the choicest game, and one where
success in hunting is assured without
work. His hell, too, is a material one
land OF desolation and famine, with
out food, raiment or lamp; where he is
forever engaged in the tanatlus- like
pursuit of game, which he can never
overtake.
Success in the chase does not al
ways come to the best hunter. He then
concludes that he has committed some
fault displeasing to the deity, or that
evil spirits have tnterfered for the
Eskimo admits the double principle of
good and evil. Thus the purpose Of his
acts of religion Is to propitiate the good
spirits and to keep at bay the evil
spirits. The deity is not inaccessible
the sorcerer is famous for his voyages
to the moon and to the bottom of the
sea. The evil spirit is also accessible,
but only through the aid of a protect
ing spirit. and instead of being con-
ciliated he Is fought with, forced to
retreat, and even killed.
Enjoys Great Authority.
1.-THE sorcerers are men who stab
themselves with knives, shoot them
selves with gnns, die and come to life
again in an instant without any sign
Of wounds. Among the more prtmi-
tive inland Eskimo the sorcerer is
chosen to act in the name of the tribe,
and enjoys very great authority. Even
If he is child, he takes precedence
over even the Oldest men at the feasts.
THE sorcerer sometimes makes evil
use of his art, and then we have black
magic. He is supposed to make a sort
of monster with the head of bear, the
body of wolf, the tails of fish, etc.

will infallibly succumb.

Northern tundra. ut least In the interior,
without scattering In small, wandering
groups. I know Of only one locality
where there Is q permanent village.
These little nomad groups split up until
the bands are reduced to two families
at the most, living together. The ex-
clusively coastal Eskimo can and must
gather, at least at certain periods, and
form groups of 10, is or 40 families.
Seal and walrus hunting are thus made
easier. When Autumn comes they sep
arate again and scatter in all direc-
tons
Thus each group must be fully SUM-
cient unto itself without depending on
the others. and each member has to
take his part in contributing toward
the common welfare. Everything is in
common From the fact that the small
group cannot undertake the responsible
ity of aiding the others arises indif-
ferenceS, agoism, suspicion, hatred be-
tween tribes, duels, murders and inher-
tied vendettas. But in times Of album
dance everybody is welcome and hospi-
tality is a thing that is sacred"

that there is no danger of forming

Audience Of 21.Year Bout
With Blindness
LAUDs WlFE's COOPERATION
Says He Never Before Realized
What q Weak Thing the
Seeing Brain Is

washington, Feb. 10.-(R)-The
story Of q 21-year struggle against The
handicap Of blindness and Of an
effort to continue the practice Of law
through the assistance Of his wife
was related today by Senator Thomas
D. Schall Of Minnesota.
Speaking over the Columbia Broad
casting system. Schall explained he
lost hts sight at the age of 80 from
an electric shock and asserted that
after being blind for 81 years he
wouldn't trade the understanding"
he has gained for all the eyes in the
world"
!. He said the first thing every man
who loses his sight thinks Of is to
quit and that II 1t had not been for
the love and the tender understand
ing Of my brilliant little helpmate
and classnate I think I would have
quit"
He added that when he became
blind he asked his wife If he should
sell lead pencils and she replied:
People Trust Blind
II should say not. Tom, We're
going to practice law. I will be your
eyes. You have your profession. In
q short time, / am sure. you can try

weary road. It was like learning to
walk all over again. I worked along

In fact, q blind mans mind rests
only when he sleeps, since he must
