Eskimo Vocabulary Is
Tough, Explorer Says

Proyincetown, Mass.-Years ago
somebody told Commander Donald
B. Macmillan. famed explorer, that
the Eskimo vocabulary contained
only about 300 words.
So Mr.. Macmillan undertook to
master the language, confident that
by jOtting down the 300 words in
the order that he heard them he
soon would be able to speak like
native.
But he has found Eskimo the
most difficult language on earth.
Already he has recorded no less
than 1900 words, and he is still
at IT.

The reindeer and their herders

With the introduction of rein

eminent hopes to induce rowing
Eskimos to settle in permanent
locations, using the deer as the
basis of sustenance in their new
life. -r.s:
The dominion government has
brought a number of Lapland
families to the Arctic to teach
the Eskimo how to handle rein
deer. Naturally huntsman, the
Eskimo follows his instinct and
roams freely over northern waste
lands seeking fish, game and
food. What little revenue he has
comes from fur trapping.

Now the dominion government
hopes to domesticate the abort
gines by convincing them that the
reindeer, if properly cared for,
will give them all they desire,
food, clothing and activity.
Numerous missions are being
devoted to teaching young Eski-
mos that a settled life is prefer
able to that of a romad. It is
upon these young converts to the

Hotel REMODELING
WILL COST $4,000
Enlargement Of Mayfower Din.
ing Facilities Is Largest Change
Made in Nine Years.

Enlargement of the dining facilities
Of the Hotel Mayf1ower, which COM
menced this week, Is considered the
largest single major improvement in
the nine years history Of the insti-
tuition.
1t has been estimated by Robert F.
Beresford, original architect of the
hotel, that the work of transforming
the palm court into a cocktail lounge
will cost upward of $4,000. The
plans call for some $4,000 for the
steel and glass inclosure work, plumb
ing, partitioning. service bar installa-
ton and general construction fea-
lures. Another $4,000 will be spent
for the installation Of complete air
cooling system. The furnishings and
decorative features have been esti-
mated to cost $4,000.
Davis, Wick, Rosengarten Co. of
Washington are the general con-
tractors; furnishings and decorations
are being handled by the Walter NJ.
Ballard Co. Of Washington and New
York, and T. H Urdahl is serving as
consulting engineer on the air-condi-
tioning phase.
The partioning Of the palm court,
which has heretofore given the ap-
pearance Of an outdoor conservatory,
is to be carried out in construction
Of steel and glass. While District
regulations forbid placement of bar
within sight of patrons, the plans call
for concealed service bar Of 12-foot
length with two beer-dispensing units.

TELLS HOW TO MAKE
OLD FURNITURE new
Specialist Shows Easy Process to
Restore Original Beauty
of Pieces.

Old furniture that has grown
shabby may easily be restored to its
original beauty by renewal OF the
natural wood finish, says Mary A.
Covert, home management specialist
at South Dakota State College.
The old finish should first be re-
moved with paint or varnish remov-
er. Sand the wood until it feels
smooth and satiny. Wipe off all dust
and apply a mixture of two parts
boiled linseed oil and one part turpen-
tine with a soft cloth. Heat the mix
ture in a pan of hot water. All ex-
cess oil should be wiped of imme-
diately with a dry cloth. After 48
hours the process should be repeated
until the wood will absorb no more
oil Rub the wood well after each
oiling
The oil brings out the beauty OF
the wood and enriches its color by
darkening it. On some woods the
color becomes too dark If enough oil
Is applied to fill the pores. These
woods should be oiled only to the
desired color and a mixture OF one
part white shellac to one part de-
natured alcohol should be applied.
When this is dry. rub the wood with
fine sandpaper to remove the surface
shellac.
Finish the wood by rubbing with a
small amount Of wax In some cheese
cloth. Let the wax stand for 10 min
utes and then polish the wood with a
soft piece of flannel. Several coats
of wax may be needed to give the
desired finish.

Government relief measures have
been directed wisely toward workers
in the low income groups. But the
administration should not lose sight
of the fact that a large group of
technical workers in the building in
dustry also need aid. Such aid can
be extended without extra cost If
the Government will do two things
Immediately"
Two ways Of creating employment
for these classes are recommended: ::
The importance Of the building
industry to our economic welfare
is of sufficient moment to warrant
the organization of a building con-
NSIiO11 oA CllC L LIS
division, composed of experts of the
various units of the building industry,
could guide a safe building program
and help to remove the sobstacles
which retard building recovery. Stim-
ulation of this industry, essential to
general business prosperity, would au-
tomatically assure large amount of
work for architects, engineers, drafts
men and other technicians.
Federal and non-Federal building
projects financed by the public works
fund should be made the means of
aiding the profession by making the
utilization of it's services mandatory.
Federal, State and municipal archi-
tectural bureaus should cease cCm-
peting with private business. These
bureaus should be permitted to act
only in an advisory capacity as rep
