MI king Roc trds Among Eskimos As soon as the hunting or oth- er work was over, I set my mar- vellous machine working and re- corded songs, old stories, vocab- ulary, etc., on the tape, The re- cording machine was a success from the start. , , On it the Eskimos were able to hear their own speech and their own songs; they laughed heartily and thought the whole thing a queer, amusing game. , Curiously enough, the Eskimos SRN AT SEA—Navy Communications Technician James W. Henry has his twin daughers, Cynthia Sue and Valerie Lou, pointed out to him by his wife after her arrival in New York obeard the Navy transport Geiger. The girls, first set of twine' to lbs born on a service transport, same into the world 150 miles o f Casablanca, have taken to the microphone as if it were the most natural thing in the world.. , . Now there are floods of songs; I 'find, indeed that this isolated people in the depths of the mountains has preserved a mine of them. They love singing — through it they express the changing moods of daily life; they abandon themselves to it with a kind of intoxication. A hunter may be sitting in his tent gazing in front of him, when suddenly the urge to sing comes over him, When he begins, the others — men, women and chil- dren — join in from time to time. The chorus grows strong- er and the tempo quicker; a storm of strange notes fills the skin tent. , , . We had had a musical even- ing in the skin tent, with gaiety and laughter. One Eskimo after another had taken the micro- phone and sung, and a few of the women had participated, even the reserved Kaliksuna who had sung an amusing ptar- migan song. The children had made their contribution, tunny little verses and jingles, follow- ed by outbursts of laughter. Then' I turned the tape back and let the Eskimos hear their own voices, to the delight of all. Then I said to Paniaq; "Now call the animals as you do out hunting•" Paniaq took the mic- rophone and started. He gave an animal concert so astonish- ingly true to life that we might have had all the beasts in the wilderness about us. He called caribou, moose, mountain sheep fox, raven, owl, yellow -billed Won, ptarmigan, ground squirrel, ;find all the rest. Last calve the wolf. And the wolfs howl rang out, so perfectly true to life in Its harsh dissonance that I felt a chill down my spine. Suddenly he received an an- swer, The dogs which had lain asleep in the snow outside the tent awoke, raised their muzzles to the stars and howled, too 'zona "Nunatnuita Arming Alas- ka's Inland Eskimos,'° by Helga biota& Lindbergh's First Sight of 11tabini The Thirty -First Hour.. . • For aviators approaching from the sea, a coast line choose be- tween two methods of appear- ing. When air is crystal clear it announces itself delicately, subt- ly, as a fine, dark line, barely breaking the evenness of the hor- izon; rising, growing, flowering gradually, giving one plenty of time to adjust to its presence, its shades of color, its intraca- cies of character and shape. But in heavy haze or fog it can loom up with terrifying suddenness, not even leaving time to turn from its crushing impact. On one day, it uses the curvature of the earth as a cloak. On another, it veils itself with different shades of mist and weather.. , , The coast of England is well above the horizon when I see its outline, pale and whitish in the haze.

As a schoolboy I read of the slowly changing surface of the earth, of clam fossils found on hilltops, of glaciers building and melting, of drifting continents and dried- up seas. But all these things were measured on a time scale that made little impression on my mind — hundreds of centur- ies , — ages before the Sphinx was built. Here, I see the earth actually in the modeling, in terms of time that I understand. The signs below are fresh, un- mistakable. The road, and little houses and barns on top of the cliff, are all set back from the precipice, leaving a strip of green fields along the edge, a few generations' worth of land to delay the inevitable collapse into sea. -From "The Spirit of St. Louis," by Charles A.

The red carpets came out, flags waved, and bands )allayed stirring music. Amity between nations seemed to be the theme of the celebrations staged to welcome the distinguished vis- itor. Outside the steps of the pres- idency the Lebanese President inspected the guard of honour and stood stiffly to attention while yet another band played the national anthem of his coun- try. At least that is what the band though it was playing. And ap- parently no one noticed the slightest flicker of emotion pas across Mr. Chamoun's face. If only they had known, this was evidence of supreme self-control en his part. For, as has since come out, the tune the band was playing with such gusto as a compliment to Brazil's honoured guest was not the national anthem of Lebanon but the national anthem of the neighbouring State of Israel. And officially, a state of war still exists between Israel and the Lebanon.
