enlarged Individuality, a wider sphere

pansive love, a higher and more per
manent peace" (p. 265).

fishness, and serve mankind fully."

Edited by

i (I Corinthians, chapt. 13).
"Charity decent, modest, easy, kind,
Softens the high and rears the abject
mind,
Not ever provoked, she easily for
gives, And -much she suffers, where she
much believes. -
Soft peace she brings, wherever she
arrives,
Sho builds our quiet as she forms our
lives,
Lays the rough paths of, peevish
nature even, ' j
And opens In each breast a little
heaven."

In the home It Is kindness; In bus
iness it is honesty; in society it is
courtesy; In work it Is' fairness; to
ward the unfortunate It Is pity;
toward the weak It is help; toward

Primitive Eskimos
Found by Woman
Welfare Worker
ANCHORAGE, Alaska m An Eski
mo tribe which still lives in the
"stone age" and with a "culture"
more primitive than even the natives
on St. Lawrence Island, Bering sea,
has been discovered by Miss Mar
jory B. Major.
Miss Major, a nurse and specialist
in child health and welfare of the
medical service of the bureau of In
dian affairs, said she encountered the
tribe in southwestern Alaska while
on a "mission of mercy" to Influenza
stricken natives.
Accompanied by Dr. W. A. Borland
and a guide, she visited five villages
and came upon the Tlkchlk tribe,
which had left Its customary moun
tain haunt In an effort to shake off
the Influenza and had settled In a
temporary village on , the Tlkchlk
river.
Every member had suffered greatly
from the disease, she said, and a
limited amount of dried moose meat
was the only food in camp. Thoy
were so 111 they could not gather
wood for fire or lift their nets for
fish.,
Miss Major believes she is the first
white woman these natives had seen,
and 'until v she bnViriced " them,
through a 12-year-old Interpreter,
that she was a human being, differ
ing mainly in pigmentation from
their women, she was not able to
approach them. .
The nurse described the Tikchiks
as a hale and hearty tribe.
Their skin garments were sewed
with fibre. Their flint knives had
bone handles and their dishes were
of wood, Miss Major reported.

walls do not a prison make. Some
times they make a studio.
Nora Currle Sweetland, arrested on
charges of smashing windows of her
former, husband's book store in a
dispute over custody of her two chil
dren, didn't let that interrupt her
sculpturing.
Fitting up her cell as best she
could, she chiseled out two figures
while awaiting an insanity hearing
growing out of her actions. Freed on
this count, she returned to put the
finishing touch on the models.
At first she had only a butcher
knife and spoon, . furnished by a
friendly turnkey, with which to
shape the clay. Then, when she
started working' in plaster, the Jailer
found her a hammer and chisel.
A wash rag from the jail bathroom,
wrapped around the hammer head,
served to muffle the sound of her
blows and prevent disturbing other
prisoners.
One of the figures she has shaped
while in Jail Is that of her younger
child as a baby; the other Is her
"Madonna of the Trenches," sym
bolizing the Red Cross.
Mrs. Sweetland has executed sev
eral 1 pieces of statuary for public
places in the southwest.
Electrical Eye
Defeats Human
At Sorting Beans
LOWELL, Mich. (P) A battery of
electric eyes that sorts beans better
and quicker than the human eye
can do it has resulted in a new re
quirement being set up by the de
partment of agriculture for "grade
1" bean shipments.
The machine, first of its kind In
the country, employs light reflexes
to pick out imperfect beans and for
eign matter. Its accuracy is such
that only one-fourth of one per cent
of culls, stones and other matter
pass without detection. '
Previously, "choice hand picked"
beans accepted were allowed one and
a half pounds of cull per hundred
weight. In operation of the machine, the
beans are passed singly before the
"electric eye." When a white bean,
which Is perfect, passes, the light
reflex Is normal, and the bean goes
Its way untouched.
But when a discolored bean or
foreign matter appears, a different
light reflex sets an ejecting machine
in motion and a trigger finger flips
the cull aside. -
Two carloads of beans a day canv
be sorted by the machine. Because
there were not enough beans in this
section to keep the machine in oper
atlon, carloads were routed
Thirst, Machine

TRIPOLI, Lybla W Burled in the
unemotional pages of an army offi
cer's report to the provincial au
thorities Is a story of how the once
dreaded calma of Orfella and 60 of
his rebel tribesmen perished of thirst
in the Taferust desert.
The report gives no details other
than that the band tried to negotiate
the vast arid stretch, one of the
worst in Africa, when fleeing to Al
geria from the machine guns and
airplanes of Italian troops.

a three-year campaign has cleared
Trlpolitanta and the western half of
Libya of rebels, made the report. He

The calma'B full name was Abd-
V. 1 -Neta v-K nr. From 1024 to 1929 Its
mere mention struck terror to the
hearts of peaceful desert dwellers In
the region of the Fezzan.
Life there In the barren Interior
of Libya Is made possible by a sprin
kling of oases. By virtue of his office,
which carries with It the title of
muntsaref- of Murzuk, the principal
oasis, the calma laid claim to the
whole territory.
. Leading 200 fierce warriors, he
preyed upon the natives, and his
power was undisputed until the Ital
ian column went into the country.
It was an uneven fight. The Ital
ian weapons cut down the calma's
men, and the relentless desert fin
ished the work.
