Father McElmeel Nulato Visiting
 In Nome

4 distinguished visitor at the Catholic church is the Reverend Father J.F. McElmeel, of the Nu- lato Mission. Father McElmeel arrived in Nome last week, and plans to remain until the latter part of this week. when he will leave for short sojourne at Our Lady of Lourdes Mission at Pill grim Springs. He is making an official inspection tour of all the missions in this district.
 Leaving Nulato early in May, Father N.Elmeal travelled down the Yukon River, making short visits a, Holy C3oss, Peimute and Mountain Village. At Moutain Village ne was oined by Father Fc&. of the Hooper Bay Mission, and they travelled by small boat down the Yukon and Akularak Rivers, to the Akularak Mission. This Mission, which houses be- tween eighty and one hundred Eskimo children of all ages. is located 35 bends down the Aku- larak River from the South Fork of the Yukon.
 Father reports that life at this mission is more contented and happy than at any other he has visited. When he made his visit, the salmon run was at its height, and everyone at the Mission was working cutting fish. The Mis- sion fish camp is located at the mouth of the Akularak River, and from 5000 10 $500 silver sal- mon were caught in the fish wheels daily. The Sisters work ed side by side with the Eskimo boys and girls, cleaning and pre- pairing the fish for drying. A catch of al least 30,0o0 will be placed on the drying racks before the end of the run.
 The entire work of tn= Mission is cooperative, even she smallest children having certain duties to perform, Father McElmeel said that he was surprised and pleas ed 10 see that the greatest and mos. dreaded punishment for the M ss.on children was the taking away of .he.r working privileges.

Thrills Of the widest jungles,
beasts in their struggles for life,
savage tribesmen in the strange,
fanatical and deadly rites of the
juju! crocodiles, rhino-every peril
an explorer could face-these are
filmed, with sound, in Trader

gantic pageant of savage Africa,
opening tonight at the Capitol
Theatre.
The film differs from anything of
the kind ever seen, for its thrills
and its wonders surround a dra-
matte story-the tale of the adven-
turous trader, his apprentice and
the beautiful white Goddess" of
the savage Isorgi. The famous
book lives in actually, as, in the
original locales of its dramatic mar
rative, it is enacted in talking pic
lures.
Harry Carey. in the title role of
Trader Horn, has a splendid part
which he portrays with that facile
naturalness which gives it its
charm His dialogue is often that
of the author of the book, and he
seems fairly imbued with its spirit
Edwina Booth, as Nina the white
goddess, plays the difficult role OF
a savage child who becomes tanned
by love. 1t runs the gamut of emo
tons and, played in the hardships
of jungle trip, is unique among
characterizations. Duncan Renaldo
as Peru does splendid work, as does
Olive Golden as Mrs. Trent. A do
minant figure is Mutia, the giant
native who plays Renchero with all
the skill of civilized actor.

Overcoming
A Child's
Fright
Don'tGive Medicine
Except Under the
Doctors Order.
By ANGELO PATRI.

IT WANT advice about question
L upon which my mother-in-law
and have disagreed. My little son,
aged 31a, has been waking up every
night about 2. and crying in fright
I have to 60 to him and try to quiet
him; but he usually keeps 1t up for q
couple of hours. My husband must
get his rest. and so must I, If we are
to 60 on working. I gave the child =
sleeping pill and he slept the night
through. My mother-in-law got very
excited about 1t and said I should
never do such a thing. Was 1t 80 very
wrong? What shall do when he
keeps waking us every night? I've
tried everything"
It is dangerous to give sleeping
medicine to a child without q doctors
order. I would give no medicine to
anybody, much less to q child. without
the doctors prescription. and I want
to know that doctor well before I trust
him to give that prescription.
The medicine may be harmless, but
you do not know thing about it. 1t
made the child sleep. but you do not
know what else it did. 1t is trying to
be awakened by frightened child
night after night. but one must learn
the cause of his fright, the reason for
his waking, before treating him for it.
He may not need medicine. If that
were so, what a dreadful mistake 1t
would be to give him any.
Fears are never easy to uncover,
but that Is what we have to do II they
are to be cured. Sleeping medicine
will not cure fear. Confidence, feel
ing of security, will cure it. Listen to
the child as he goes about his daily
affairs; watch for some sign Of the
fear that bothers him. He Is not likely
to talk about it, but you might catch
a glimpse Of it in his play. or IN his
association with people about him.
Watch how he gets along with dogs,
strangers, other children, the relatives
and friends who visit. Keep him more
at home. Take him to no movies, no
parties. and guard his diet. Try to
keep him happily occupied most Of
the time. See that he plays happily,
and does not get over-tired. Try to
make him feel secure in his home and
among his family. Don't force him
to do what he fears to do-pat . dog,
swim, climb high, Jump from q
height, swing high, ride q horse, meet
strangers. Whatever his particular
fright may be, 1t is to be avoided for
the time.
Before trying to cure him have q
physician who understands and likes
children, examine him, and zee him
frequently. Talk freely to the doctor
80 he gets . picture Of the child's life.
Don't hide any fact he inquiries about.
He can help only when he knows what
Is wrong. II the doctor gives the child
medicine, very well. His directions
should be carefully followed. Don't
skip any appointed hour, and don't
add any. Do exactly what was ordered
Children rarely need medicine for
their bodies, but they often need guid-
ance and consolation for their souls.
An understanding mother, aided by
the family physician, the family
clergyman, the teacher, ought to be
able to come close to providing for
that need. Then there will be no need
for sleeping pills.

mean, is it belittling to him if she

Answer: Under ordinary circum-

Dorothy Dix Says
Only Way to Insure Happiness Is
To Hold Your Husbands Love.

n YoTH1NG else in the world so
infuriates women as to urge
" upon them the importance Of
4 retaining their husbands af-
fections. The mere suggestion that
they should strive to keep their hus-
bands in love with them and glad they
married them makes them see red and
have homicidal impulses toward the
adviser.
"Why is it any more necessary for
wife to retain her husbands affection
than 1t Is for him to retain hers?"
they demanded as with one angry
voice. why should wife make any
more effort to please her husband than
he should make to please her? Why
should wife have to yes-yes her hus-
band and sidestep all Of his little
prejudices and peculiarities, while he
can be as grouchy as he pleases and
walk roughshod over all Of her feel
ings? Why should husband feel he
has a perfect right to fall In love with
q platinum blond II his wife gets fat
and old while he expects her to see
romantic figure in him, no matter how
paunchy and bald he gets? 1t isn't
fair that there should be one code for
conduct for wives and another for hus-
bands"
OF course, 1t isn't fair, but it's that
way. When the Creator made women
He bestowed upon them many perqui-
sites and privileges, but justice was not
included among them. In every re-
lationship between the sexes men get
the best Of the bargain. Especially Is
marriage never a $3.50 proposition.
On the wife Is laid the heaviest part Of
making 1t a success.
60 THE answer to the question Of
~ why it Is more important for a
woman to retain her husbands affec-
tions than it Is for him to retain hers
Is, Just because it is. Because life Is
like that. And chiefly because mar
riage, to a woman is not only voca-
ton, but an avocation. 1t is her
career. Her profession. Her meal
ticket. Whereas to man 1t Is a side
issue. Something that adds to his
comfort happiness and prosperity if it
turns out happily, but that, in any
case, doesn't stop him from being a
lawyer or a doctor or business man
and making living.
Most girls in these days are trained
for some sort Of gainful occupation
but, no matter how much time and
money one has spent in fitting herself
for q profession, she nearly always
gives 1t up when she marries. Mar
riage then becomes her career, her life
work. The thing into which she puts
the labor of her hands, her hopes
and ambitions. And if that goes blooey
she is bankrupt in purse as well as
heart.
The divorced woman Is one who has
lost her job just as definitely as any
stenographer who has quit in temper
