valued exhibits of the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa is
the newly acquired coach used by Sir Guy Carleton, Lord
Dorchester, one of the most famous figures in Canadian his
tory. Well preserved and “good for a few’ centuries more”,
the coach was used by Sir Guy between 1766 and 1796, then
became part of his estate in England. The present Lord Dor
chester presented it to the museum. Barbara Riley is stand
ing by the coach, which, in its day, was the last word in
luxurious transportation. — Central Press Canadian

(Quick Canadian Facts)
One interesting result of the
1951 census will be proof, or
otherwise, that Canada’s Eskimo
population is increasing. Accord
ing to the last census there were
7,025 Eskimos in the country,
but a 19 48 estimate placed the
figure at 8,378, an increase of
16 per cent in seven years.
At the time of the last accur
ate count, more than 5,000 Es
kimos lived in the Northwest
Territories, nearly 2,000 in north
ern Quebec and only 23 in other
parts of the country. It is be
lieved that there are about 30,-,
000 in the world.
Most Eskimos in Canada live
north of the tree line on the rim
of the mainland or in the shores
of islands in the Arctic Archi
pelago and in Hudsoff Bay. Main
ly they are coastal dwellers who
depend almost entirely 'on the
fish and mammals of the north
ern waters for food and clothing.
A few bands live inland in the
Keewatin District on the west
side of Hudson Bay.
The Lands and Development
Services Branch of the Depart
ment of Resources and Develop
ment is charged with the admin
istration of Eskimo affairs in
Canada. These consist of meas
ures to assure the conservation
of reindeer herds, for example,
and the setting aside of game
preserves where only Eskimos
are allowed to hunt. Aside from
these measures, plus the main
tenance of a few permanent sta
tion where medical officers are
located, the Eskimos need and
receive very little attention.
Other contacts are made through
patrols by the R.C.M.P., by radio
communication and by the an
nual Eastern Arctic Patrol steam
ship. Eskimo families receive
family allowance payments as all
other Canadian families do but
payments are made in goods, not
cash. On the whole, the Eskimo
is an exceedingly self-sufficient
individual.
It is believed that about 2,000
years ago the ancestors of all
the present Eskimos lived among
the forests north of Lake Super
ior and that they moved north
from that region to the Arctic
coast and spread it both east and
west. Many of them ended up as
far east as Greenland and others
made their way around to the
west and south coasts of Alaska.
In more recent times a, few hun
dred of them took an extra ex
cursion and landed in Siberia
where they settled around East
Cape. ;
Stragglers from the various
treks settled along the way and
now about half of all the Can
adian Arctic islands are either
occupied by Eskimos permanent
ly or visited occasionally.
Various authorities have tried
to estimate what the Eskimo
population of the world may
have been before the people be
gan to come into contact with
Europeans. About 100,000 is
generally accepted as a reason
able minimum figure. Main
causes for the great decrease in
the past few hundred years^seem
to be the contagious diseases
brought by white men, against
which the Eskimo had no natural
immunity. Measles has been one
of the most ferocious Scourges of
the Eskimos in modern times. A
single epidemic around the be
ginning of this century is known
to have killed from 25 to 75 pei’
cent of all the people in various
districts. Smallpox has also tak
en a large toll among the Es
kimos, just as it did among the
Indians of North America. 'Scien
tists believe that the epidemics
that have visited the Eskimos
have killed most of those who
were susceptible and that those
who are left are immune. It is
believed that the race is hot
likely to disappear by dying out,
but by merging into the white
population. Inter - marriage o f
whites and Eskimos is common.
No Chiefs, No Soldiers
It is hard to pin down much
generally applicable, information
on the customs, culture and re
ligion of Eskimos because of the,
wide variations that are natural
ly founci among a people so
lengthily and thinly spread out.
It is known that their language
is the same from east to west
and that it is one of the hardest
of all to learn. They are general
ly monogamous but both poly
gamy and polyandry are socially
acceptable and sometimes prac-1
tised. They have no chiefs, sol
diers, police or servants. Punish
ment of a social offender almost
always is in the form of death
or ostracism.
Living their natural existence,
where they are largely unchanged
by civilization, Eskimos are about
the happiest and healthiest peo
ple on earth. They love to laugh
and find plenty to laugh about.
Invariably an Eskimo who leaves
his natural habitat wants no
thing more than to get back
home. It is, however, rarely that
he can be enticed away from
home in the first place.
