ESKIMO ' AGAINST
TAKING HUMAN
(By Associated Press)
LONDON, Feb. 10. — The Eskimos
of Greenland aro probably the only
people in Europe who are not Inter
ested in the outcome of the great war.
Such Is the impression given by Jen
Danguard Imsen, governor of Green
land, who has come all the way to
London to appear as a witness in a
claim of the Danish government to a
cargo of fish seized by the British as
a prize of war.
“They have heard of the war," Said
the governor, "but they have only a
vague impression of the gigantic
struggle. Two Eskimo papers that
are published once a month give them
a rough idea of the conflict, but the
Isaacs are entirely foreign to them.
These papers are printed by native
printers trained In Denmark. In them
are reproduced war pictures taken
from the Danish papers."
The waste of human life makes the
deepest Impression on these Green
landers, according to Governor Dan
gaard. "The Eskimo believes it wick
ed to kill humans," lie went on. “He
kills all animals and thinks he has a
perfect right to do so, but he shrinks
from the thought of taking a human
life. He heard of men being thrown
against machinery in the great strug
gle to the south of him, and believes
the whole thing absurd.”
The governor summed up the
Greenlander's unique position which,
he remarked, may have something to
do with his detnchment from the war. |
"The Greenlander," he said, "has
these advantages:
"He has no army to support.
“He has no navy to worry about.
"There are no policemen in Green
land.
"He has no taxes to pay.
"There are no movie shows or the
atres.
“All doctor bills are paid ny the
Danish government.
"There," added the governor, "you
have a condition unique among the
peoples or the world. And It must
not be forgotten that the standard of
civilization among these Arctic High
landers is being raised, slowly by ne
cessity. I am also pleased to report
that his numbers are Increasing. The
present population of 13,000 shows a
growth of about 7 1-2 per cent In ten
years.
"The Danish government, which
controls the country, carefully looks
after the well being of the Eskimo,
and by a rigid ban on visitors to the
country — nobody Is allowed to go
to (Ireenland except by special per
mission — leaves him to develop on
natural evolutionary lines.”

Everybody
Now Reads
Ads.
By BREEN.
The time is gone when
the newspaper reader
passed over the ad. sec
tion.
Ads. today are eager
ly read. A well worded
ad. is entertaining. It is
enlightening. It tells the
reader something. It may
be termed unselfish. The
advertiser has something
you want. True, he
wants something from
you. It is up to you to
decide.
In homes all over the
country newspaper ads.
are read ana digested.
The housewife reads
them. So does the big
business man.
Don’t be a dog in the
manger. Advertise your
wares.
