pack that hens in the island for
eight months of the year.
During the long winter months.
no ships visit the island. Even the
warm season finds only half dozen
arriving, including coast guard and
Indian bureau vessels, and perhaps
one or two free-lance trading
schooners with supplies for the CO.
operative stores.
Life Is Hard.
In recent years some of the more
prominent citizens of st. Lawrence
have learned to live in frame houses,
sleep in beds, cook on stoves-and
eat canned foods. For the most
part, however. the islanders strug-
gle along under conditions that were
good enough for their fathers.
Climate and local raw materials
continue to dictate dress styles in
terms of furs and hides, with bird
skins and feathers for ornament,
although certain manufactured ar
ticles such as house dresses, calico
snow shirts, and mems denim over
alls are increasingly popular. For
the younger feminine set, one mod
ern costume includes the practical
accessory of boomers made of mat
tress ticking, worn tucked into high
boots.
Still used for shelter in the
less progressive settlements and
camps are the old Siberian-type
of winter huts, with dome-shaped
roofs attached to layers of walrus
hides, lashed to wooden framework
and held to the ground by heavy
rocks.
Even the more pretentious
homes of imported lumber, found at
the comparatively new village Of
Savoonga, are plain. boxlike struc-
lures, seldom two stories high, while
poorer houses may accommodate
six or more people in their single
room, the floor serving as commu-
nifty dining table.
Largely meat-eaters, St. Law
renee islanders vary a diet Of wal
rus, whale, and seal with summer
rations of fish and fowl, served Ell
ther boiled, dried, raw, or sour
the latter resulting from decompo-
sition after underground storage.
Traditional delicacy is whale blub-
Der. and unique side dish is made
from fermented greens, frozen,
sliced into shavings. mixed with
seal oil and sugar, and then frozen
again.
To-day, because of its compare
lively static life through centuries
of occupation, ST. Lawrence island is
particularly interesting to archeolo-
gists and anthropologists. One of
the most dramatic finds on the is
land was a specimen of fossilized
sequoia tree"

SMALLPOX VACCINATION
VIII Be Offered School Children
Commencing March 20

Smallpox vaccinations will be of
fered Delaware school children,
outside of Wilmington and the
Claymont School District, during a
three-week program, scheduled to
commence March 10th, it was an
nounced today by DIR. Joseph r.
Beck, Director of the Division of
Communicable Disease Control of
the State Board of Health. The
program will be conducted by the
health officers of the various coun-
ties. They will notify each school
of the date vaccinations will be
performed.
Since Delaware has no compul-
sorry vaccination law, with the ex-
ception of those in force in the
City of Wilmington, and the Clay
mont School District, the protec-
tive program is on an entirely vol
untary basis. Permission blanks
are given the children to take
home to their parents, with the re
quest that the parents sign and
return them prior to the day the
treatments will be offered.
Maryland, Pennsylvania, and
New Jersey have compulsory vac
cination laws, and Delaware has
long relied on the protective in
sulation" of these bordering states.
Modern conditions of easy and
rapid travel have made diseases
with long incubation periods, such
as smallpox, more difficult for any
single state to combat. DR.. A. c.
Executive Secretary of the State
Board of Health, has pointed out
that person might be exposed to
a disease over a thousand miles
away from the spot at which he
finally develops it. Smallpox has
a long incubation period, and may
take from eight to sixteen days to
develop.
In 1885 bill to make smallpox
vaccination compulsory throughout
the state was introduced in the
General Assembly, but was defeat
ed. This was looked upon by state
health authorities as of little con-
sequence, since almost equal re
suits have been obtained by the
use Of parental permission slips
With the failure of passage of the
compulsory vaccination bill, DR.
Jost has said, we are relying en-
tirely upon the interest Of parents
in the welfare of their children
and themselves. Judging from the
percentage of permission slips
that have been signed and return
ed during past campaigns, he ex-
pressed a belief that that faith is
well founded.

Fiction and Fact

People driven from their homes
and forced to make their way in
an unknown country. Such is the
story today in Europe and such
was the theme Of Henry Wads-
worth Longfellow's most famous
poem. "Evangeline".
All who ever read it recall the
story; the struggles and sorrows
Of that brave little band of Acad-
ians who, driven from their homes
in Grand Pre-, settled in Louisiana.
There in the bayous they made a
fresh start in life.
And there in st. Martinsville,
where the exiled Acadians settled
one hundred and seventy-three
years ago, the spirit of Evangeline
lives on. The people still cling to
their old methods and customs. In
the churchyard is a memorial
bearing the name of Emmeline La
Biche and the natives claim she is
the heroine of Longfellow's poem.
Also in st. Martinsville is the oak
tree where Evangeline waited for
her lover, Gabriel.
When the 57th anniversary OF
Longfellow's death is observed on
March "a, think about his poem
and its 1889 duplicate in Europe
and pledge your support in keep
ing this country, the 'land Of the
free" land where none are per-
secuted because of their beliefs.

March, the students of our school
become a little nervous. The rea-
son? Declarations! Everyone
from the seventh grade to the
twelfth must say one. Each lasts
from three minutes in the seventh
grade to nine minutes in the
twelfth grade, getting little
longer each year.
There are several steps in giving
a defamation. First, to find one
that suits both you and the teach
Ier. After looking through almost
every book, pamphlet and maya
zine in the library, one usually
takes the first one he looked at.
The second step is learning the
defamation. This takes from one
week to three, depending on the
brilliance of the person learning it.
The third and last step is giving
the defamation. This is hardest OF
all. The teacher asks if any one

hand. Your name is called and
you walk to the front of the room,
give a rather weak grin and then
you start-and what startl This
is the time when everyone decides
whether or not it is worth listen
ing to. You do all right until you
catch someone's eye, you start to
humble, then you forget. Your
.prompter hurriedly whispers the
next few lines to you and you are
off again, After two or three
more promptings you are finally
finished. You walk hurriedly to
your seat and sit down. The or
deal is over. But wait! What is
your mark? You refrain from
asking now. No need of letting
the whole class know. At the end
of the period you go meekly to the
teachers desk and inquire as to
whether or not you passed. II

When all those scientists get

by renting their telescopes to the

There is well-founded suspicion
the rest of the league is about as
close as it will get to the Cincinnati
Reds. 1t may take a powerful lense
to locate them from now on.
That is the consensus after YES
terday's double triumph in which
the Reds had the benefit of some of
Paul Derringer's best pitching in the
first game and some smart hitting
in the second to down the always
tough Boston Bees, who have been
playing almost 900 ball the last
month.
The league leaders won 6-1 be-
hind Derringer's eight-hit hurting.
but they had to go II innings in the
afterpiece before Frenchy Borda-
garay's timely single scored the
winning run and gave them a 9-8
edge.
Padgett's Homer Beats Giants.
Although Lee Grissom was some
thing less than a ball of fire in the
second game, the fact remains the
Reds won when three of their
closest pursuers-the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates, st. Louis Cardinals and Chi
cago Cubs-all are shouting Justify,
We amt concedin' 'em nothinr"
And those three are not giving up
for very good reasons. The renais-
sance of Dizzy Dean has given the
Cubs pennant visions again, the
work of Tom Sunkel has had
vitalizing effect on the Cards and
the Pirates are in the midst of a
winning streak of which any club
could be proud.
The Cards kept up their winning
ways at the expense of the New York
Giants with ga victory built
around what must be every pinch
hltter's dream-a homer with the
bases loaded. Don Padgett did it in
the seventh, and just when it looked
as if the Giants might actually win
a game.
The Cubs made their forty-eighth
victory of the year look easy as biz
