mon in the spring and fall. and rab- bits and ptarmigan, caught by the women with snares during the early winter add much to the food supply of the family. The rabbit skins are quite commonly used for children s sleeping robes and for the lining of mittens. Rabbit lined mittens are the last word in Arctic hand comfort. The parkas and mukluks are almost invariably made from reindeer skin. The mukluks usually have luftak (seal skin) soles. A well made parka of spotted fawn-skins, trimmed with wolverine and wolf skins is valued as high as S60 to S70, depending on the fur mosaic work used.
 Then, too. fish is plentiful on the kobuk although 1t is not salmon stream. There are several varieties found only in Arctic waters. There Is, however, no commercial fishing and there are no canneries- After the ice forms in the river in October. there comes a heavy run of several varieties of white fish, one of wh i c h, called by the Eskimo col ak, is greatly esteemed as food by these people who eat quantities of seal oil. his run of such vast numbers of fish reminds one of the enormous runs of eels on the lower Yukon river in Nov ember. Here as there literally tons are taken to be used as winter food for people and dogs. The fishing on the kobuk is done by means of traps operated through holes in the ice. The fish are strung on willow branch es about 30 to a branch, and in eoun.- ing the days catch, they say so many sticks have been taken.
 Kiana is an Arctic Village" 50 minutes north of the Circle, and 100 miles inland from the Boring sea coast at Kotzebue.. But remember that 1t has three trading stations. One postoffice, one school with 40 pu- pills, one white woman, and one mis- sion under the auspices of the Friends Church. It has timber, 1t has an abundance of native foods, 1t has ad- jacent mines, and it has had no aid nor has 1t needed any during a world depression.
 No account of Kiana or of any AL askan village would be complete without something being told of the beauty of river, mountain, sky. etc. Kiana is surrounded by friendly lit- tie mountains offering their pYotec- tion to us mere mortals who choose to stay within their shadows. The landscape is not dead, drear white Of the coastal Arctic but the black and white of a wood-cut picture, for the little streaks and patches of spruce trees look black in the indirect light of an Arctic winter.

CURIOUS ESKIMO BELIEF

4 curious belief of the Eskimo reroes was to the effect that if man or woman died through violence orssuiclde, his future existence would be a pleasant one some place where there was an abundance of fresh wat CT and game and an utter absence of cold and snow, but there are no re- ords available to show whether or not this belief proved to be any in- ducement to suicide.
 Among the Eskimoes the Ongutkuk (medieine men) were credited with having intercourse not only with the evil spirits but also with the souls of the departed ones. The old time Es- kimo did believe that the only eonnsc-- tIons the Ongutkuks had were with evil spirits.

PLAN CELEBRATION
WITH COTTON ROAD
Federal-State Bureaus Experimenting
on FaisOn-Clinton Highway
In the East

Raleigh, July 1'.-(AP)-Plans for
a celebration August 3 of the open
ing of the Faison-Cl.1ton cotton road
received a boost here today as George
L. Peterson, of Clinton, discussed the
event with State officials.
Peterson, mayor of Clinton, said it
was hoped to make the celebration
one of such scope that it would at
tract wide attention.
Peterson said he understood the
link of cotton-built road was the long
est of its kind yet completed in the
nation.
w. Vance Baise, chief engineer for
the highway commission, Isaid the
project was the only one in which
the State and Federal road forces CO.
operated to determine the usefulness
of cotton fa'.ric in surface treatment
of highways.
Various weights of the cotton fab
ric are used in different stretches
of the road and other sections are
given identical surface treatment
without any cotton fabric. A com
plete check will be kept on the road
for three years.
Baise said cotton fabric had been
used in construction of about 100
miles of other routes in the State,
near Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Rocky
Mount and Sunbury.

GOOD RAINS BOOST
STATE FARM CROPS

Good, State College

crops this year, it was reported here

pared with 81 per cent the year be
fore and 80 per cent for the same pc
riod in 1885.
The condition of pastures and the
corn crop, reported as good. are con-
sidered indicative of the general con-
dition of crops as a result of the
heavier rainfall, said E. G. Blair, ex-
tension agronomist at State College.
Information: received by Blair from
the United States Department of Agri
culture showed that North Carolina is
listed among the 9tState$ where the
corn crop is. SO perFscefty or better.
Normal yields are rated at 100 per
cent.
In the western half of the State
pastures were rated at 80 per cent or
better, while in the eastern half pas
lures were rated between 65 and 25
per cent of a normal yield
Over the United States, Rlair con-
tinued, corn and pastures are doing
good this year with the exception OF
a long narrow area between the Mis-
sissippi River and the Rocky Mouc
:ains.
The U. S. average rainfall during
the last three months was the same
as for this State, 80 per cent. while

"In fact, they do not keep the rec
ords of employees up to date" said
Mr.. Powell. "They think we are doing
a lot of unnecessary work in keeping
the records of all North Carolina en-
ployees up to date Ky entries from the
reports of employers every quarter.
They claim that not more than half
the employees will ever call for COM
pensation, and the work done in keep
ing their records is useless. When a
worker becomes unemployed, then
they have to bring the record up to
date by making entries from reports
from the start
The Wisconsin commission is now
sending out about 5000 checks a week
which means that about 5000 EN-.
ployes who come under the act are
now unemployed, Mr.. Powell said.
"Most of our work is done by ma
chimes, Mr.. Powell said explaining
that the NJ G. commission has almost
completed cutting the addressograph
plates for every person in North Car
DINA who has a Social Security ac-
count number. These names and num-
berS are printed on cards and ledger
sheets and work and pay records of
all covered employees are transferred
to these permanent records each quar-
ter. "When a worker becomes unem-
ployed after the first of next year,
when payments are due to begin, it
will take us only a few minutes to
have his complete work and pay rec
ord before us.
Posting machines will be used and
every process possible is by machin-
cry to prevent all possible delay in
getting checks to those who are due
to receive them," Mr.. Powell said.

New York, July 16-Out of the
Mailbag:
you run little stories about New
Workers from time to time. Maybe
this one would interest your readers,
because 1 am an undergraduate at
Brooklyn College and were all laugh
ing about it.
"One of the profs was lecturing on
a recent medical discovery concern
ing the effects of dissimilar metals in
the mouth. His point was that dis
similar metals, according to expert
ments, cause irritation and may even
lead to malignant grOwths.
1.-THE prof said how nice it was to
go to college in New York, where the
student had his finger on the latest
advances in science. He urged the
class to take care of their teeth and
to have only gold used for Filings.
Just before the bell rang ending the
class a student came in-very, very
late.
"The prof asked this student to
stay after class. You have such fine
set of teeth, young man. he said, L
want you to take care of Them He

mouth hygiene in general.
What the prof doesn't know yet
is that this young mans teeth are
all false"
And here's another, this one from
l.. ", of Cincinnati:
1--WE just got sack from your town
and there are some things about it
1 noticed, as a visitor; which maybe
you haven't, as steady resident.
"For instance: why is it that
camaraderie prevails on the tops of
Fifth Avenue buses that doesn't OBJ
tain on the surface cars, the elevated
streets. Strangers speak to one anoth-
er amiably on the top deck of those
buses, but if word is exchanged be-
tween two people who haven't been
introduced anywhere else except
maybe in bars-it creates a sensation.
"And have you noticed that the stu
dents at Columbia and NJ Y. u. sum-
mer schools don't carry books around
with them. 1 noticed plenty of girls
and boys in the vicinity of these
schools but | didn't see single text
book encircled 'ny a single arm. One
girl did have a copy of "Orchids on
Your Budget" but l don't imagine
any class uses that as a text, do you?

bad eyesight. Glasses are almost as
common on the streets of New York
as among the Japanese. I was pan
