ROBERT MAYOKOK OFFERS ESKIMO LIFE" TO PUBLIC

Robert Mayokok, well known Eskimo artist has just published a book of short stories of Eskimo life. The first copies will go on sale tomorrow at Polet's Store where Robert will autograph the books for those desiring to pur- chase them for gifts.
 The book which is planned as "black board sketches" particu- larly for children is equally inter esting to adults with many facts of native life not having been told before.
 MT. Mayokok stated that he was inspired to write the booklet while in the States where he found the public amazingly ignor- ant of how an Eskimo lives. He resolved to try and tell about his people in a simple manner so that everyone may understand more about the Eskimo.
 The book is generously illus trated with sketches which were drawn by the author who is an artist as well.
 MT. Mayokok has had several stories published in the Alaska Sportsman.
 Eskimo Life" by Robert May okok was printed in the job print ing department of the Nome Mug get.

him at home a good example Of
Christian living. If this example
is not forthcoming, the child will
become confused by the contra
diction between what he is taught
and what he sees practiced.
This confusion will be COM
pounded when he goes to a school
where religion is taught. There he
will be taught to reverence the
name Of God, but at home he will
hear Gods name used irreverently
in petulance and anger. At school
he will learn to cooperate and get
along with his fellow pupils, but
at home he will be allowed to Of
fend and wrangle with his brothers
and sister. At school he will be
taught strict precepts Of honesty
and justice, while at home he will
hear his parents boast of sharp
business practices and clever eva
sions of truth.
Disturbed by these contradictions
and torn by conflicting loyalties to
home and school, the child will
lose confidence in his parents and
teachers powers to give him eff
fective directions. The Catholic
fathers in the above quotation
went to the heart of the matter of
setting before children a whole
some example. But they stopped
short of one Of the most serious
questions Of the day and that is
the example set children by racial
ly pr~ejudiced parents.
This writer has always regard
ed it as a serious matter when a
parent goes to church on Sunday
and processes Jesus and on Mon
day places the god of race pre-
judice before Him; when parents
proclaim democracy on the one
hand and practice dictatorship on
the other; when parents worship
the God of Abraham Issac and ia
cob and flaunt defiance in his
face by denouncing the brother
hood his fatherhood presupposes.

life of the white youth of the land

H NEVER FORGET

It has been said that elephants
never forget, but if you ask me
land you didn't, but Pm gonna
tell you anyway, children re-
mind elephants. Those kids whom
we take with a grain Of salt, store
away in their memories little in
cidents we older people would have
difficulty remembering.
Take, for instance, the four
daughters of MI. and Mrs. Joe
Corners of Benning Place. Norma
Jean, Winifred, Rosetta and Janet

ly now, but they were five years
younger when / spent Christmas
day in Dayton back in 1916. That
evening, I was invited to the Con-
nors' home, and while everyone
else was partaking to yuletide
cheer, I'm told that 1 spent at
least an hour cracking nuts for
the kids.
I had completely forgotten
everything that happened that
evening, SO you can imagine my
surprise when I learned that the
Connors kids still remembered me.
Of course they couldn't recall my
name; they remembered me only
as the man who cracked nuts for
them on Christmas night.
Then I recalled the pleasant
evening I spent with those kids;
how we seemed to be isolated in
a crowded room, and how they en-
joyed grabbing the nut kernals as
fast as I could open the shells.
Children remember such pleasant
incidents. They also remember
those times when adults do things
to them that are not exactly pleas
ant. They remember the men and
women who push them away from
store counters and insist upon
being waited on ahead of those
so-and-so kids. They remember be-
cause they get a scolding from
their parents when they get home.
They remember those adults
who often yell "you kids can't
play in my yard" one moment,
and the next moment ask the same
kids to u an errand for
free. They remember, but they are
not vindictive, so they do what

ever favor is asked Of them, and
the adults thinks the child has
forgotten the nasty remarks.
More than anything else, chill
dren remember all our traits and
habits, whether good or bad. This
l have been convicted or during
my years as a reporter. Give a kid
plenty of time and he a give
you an accurate case history of
almost every adult with whom he
is in daily contact. He remembers
all those things we think he never
notices, and if you don't believe it,
ask your own kid about your next
door neighbor. Meanwhile, don't
forget he can tell your next-door
neighbor all about you.
I think one of the most import
ant things for an adult to remem-
Der is that a child, like an ele-
plant, never forgets.

POWERFUL PARTIAL
REPORT

REPORT
In matters of theology and doc
trines this writer often finds him
self in sharp disagreement with
the prelates of the Catholic church.
But in matters of social philosophy
there is always the predisposition
to see eye to eye. Catholic
thoroughness in social diagnosis
has ever been to this writer a
source of inspiration and guidance.
The Catholics have long preach
ed the social gospel which was
popularized by the late Walter Ra-
sanbusch the greatest social proph-
ct of the Twentieth century. No
man has put a more definite i'm
preston upon the social thought of
the times than Rausenbusch while
a professor at Rochester Theologi-
cal seminary. When he passed the
world was breaved of one of its
finest spirits even as the
world was breaved when Rainey
Harper Of Chicago passed on.
Recently the Catholic bishops Of
the United States met in New
York City and made what is
easily one of the most challenging
statements Of the century. 1t
dealt with the education of the
the children. Quite correctly do
the bishops assume that getting the
sails of the Child's life properly set
is the major task of the church and
state. They correctly assume that
if the fountain is clear and pure
so will the stream be and the
waters thereof. But if the fountain
is poisoned the pollution will af-
flict unto the uttermost.
For many years this writer has
been trying to lay upon the hearts
of this nation the great obligation
keeping pure the minds and hearts
of the Negro and white youths of
the land. This is especially i'm
portant as it pertains to the white
youth who will in time acceded to
the rulership of this nation. In
more than one interracial meeting
this writer has tried to set forth
the dangers to white youth which
inhere in the propagation of the
white supremacy doctrine.
A doctrine so at variance with
the cardinal tenets of the Christian
faith and democracy, that it can
not but confuse even the honest
INQUIRER for the more excellent
way. More than once we have de-
plored the moral handicap impos-
ed upon the white youth who are
brought at an early date into a
sharp conflict with God, time and
teachings of Jesus Christ. The re-
cent deliverance of the Catholic
bishops on the matter of youth
training brings into rather sharp
focus the malign influence of GER
tain teachings upon the lives of the
youth. An excerpt from the bis
hops statement follows:
"The home will be the child's
first school. He will be quick to
initiate what he sees and hears
there. Let them turn this impulse
to initiate which can be the source
of much mischief and lasting harm,
to the child's advantage by giving

Letter to Editor

Dear Sir:
I want to tell you how much I
enjoy reading the Express. It gives
me news and views of our colored
neighbors not obtainable else
where. l have heard also that there
are only two daily papers in the
entire U. S. run by colored people
and giving news from their view
point; and the Dayton Express is
one of the two.
Congratulations, and keep up
the good work!
One thing about the Express
that distresses me and which could
easily be improved on is the high
frequency of typographical errors
Can't you do something about
this? Otherwise, I like it very
much!
I am a housewife and am not
a Negro. But I believe that the Ne
groes are just as good as anybody
else, and ought to get decent
treatment. nf
Yours truly, Lii
