Auxiliary Sales
Saturday Prove
Great Success

Members of the American Legion
Auxiliary were more than pleased
last Saturday at the success OF the
combined sales, luncheon and tea
held in the Dugout during the day.
Mrs. Waino Hendrickson, acting
as spokesman for the group. today,
said they wish to thank all Juneau
residents who turned out to make
the sales SO successful.
Most OF the goodies and gift
articles displayed were chosen by
buyers during the day and the
luncheon proved to be highly sue
cessful, attended by between so and
60 guests. The Juniors OF the Aux
iliary did well with their gift table
and besides the large crowd at the
luncheon, many others dropped in
throughout the day and the tea was
we'll attended.
Poppies, traditional decoration for
the American Legion groups. were
used in the Dugout for centerpieces.
Hard working committee members
were on the job from a. m. until
6 p. m. on Saturday and. accord
ing to Mrs. Hendrickson, deserve

their pockets. They have impro-
vised skates by shaping boards and
inserting sharpened edge OF
steel. On these they skate over the
frozen lakes like experts.
where they learned to make
their skates, I do not know, Tor
there wasn't a pair of skates on the
island" Mr.. Stewart said.
Underground Houses
The Nunivak Islanders live in
underground houses, ventilated by
holes in the roof and heated with
stoves made from oil drums. They
make a door in an oil drum, at
tach a chimney and fill the bot
tom with sand. The fire is built
on TOD of the sand and the sand
and drum remain hot for hours
after the fire has gone out. THIS
is most practical in country
where fuel is existent and the
winds occasionally reach sixty
mile an hour velocity. I'm fact 1t
is much more practical way to
live than in the nice new frame
home that we had" Mrs. Stewart
said.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stewart took pride
in their home, which was COM
pleted several months after their
arrival and were pleased when visi-
tors told them it was most at
tractive.
I'VE kept it clean and painted
and had our books, pictures, rugs
and a few personal belongings that
made it look homelike and, OF
course, it was home to us for three
years." Mrs. Stewart said.
Now, with a three year collec-
ton of motion pictures, which they
have had no chance to have de-
veloped, and store of fascinat-
ing memories, Mr.. and Mrs. Stew
art are bound for the States on
an indefinite vacation. Among the
places they will visit is their old
home in Arkansas. Aside from that
they have no immediate plans.

NUNIvAk IS.
E5kIk05 ARE
UNIQUE FOLK
Happy, Cheerful, Indus
trious People Live Busy
Lives, Stewards Aver

Some people might not think
three years on an island in the
Boring Sea with 225 Eskimos for
the only companions except oc-
casional visitors, exactly the ideal
way in which to begin married life.
But that is exactly what Mr.. and
Mrs. Dale Stewart, teachers for the
Office of Indian Affairs did. And
they enjoyed it.
They had been married six
months when they boarded the
Boxer in Seattle on September 81,
1899 and a month later arrived at
the treeleSs island, approximately
seventy five miles by one hundred
miles in size, where they planned
to remain for three years.
In spite of the isolation, six
months mail and magazines arriv-
ing at one time, the lack of the
so-called diversions of civilized life,
both Mr.. and Mrs. Stewart thor
oughly enjoyed their experience
and are enthusiastic boosters for
the Nunivak Island Eskimos.
During the summer months they
had numerous visitors from the
u. S. Coast Guard vessels and the
North Star and Boxer but during
the long winter months only an oc-
casional plane arrived to break the
isolation of life on the island. DR.
Margaret Lantis, anthropologlst
from the University of California
had arrived at Nunivak shortly be-
fore the Stewards and remained
there a year. Another noted Wis
itor during their sojourn was Amos
Berg from the National Geograph-
ic, who took many motion pictures
of the life among the Nunivakers.
Nunivak EskimOs Unique
"Nunivak Island Eskimos are ut
terly unique, unspoiled by civili-
cation and as bright, busy and
happy a people as could be found
anywhere in the world. They have
perfect teeth and splendid health
that amazed the three dentists
and several doctors who came to
Nunivak while we were there" Mr..
Stewart said.
"Our first difficulty was in talk
ing to them as there were only
two girls who could speak English
and one of these was too bashful
to talk in English for fear she
would be laughed at However they
learn quickly and long before we
left, we could converse freely with
all of them, children and adults
alike" declared Mr.. Stewart
School was held for the SIS chill
dren during the day, with Mr.
Stewart teaching the older group
and his wife instructing the smaller
children.
Set Own Pace
They set their own pace and at
times it was difficult to keep up
with them. They are interested
in everything and, a most trusting
people. they accept nearly every
thing that is told them" Mr. Stew
art said.
Quick to learn and adept at the
crafts necessary to their livelihood,
preparing their food, clothing, boats
and other essentials to their lives,
