\ ¢ - few white men to penetrate the snow COMES IN 2,000 - WILES'T0 SPEND WHITE VACATION John Fitzpatrick Down from | Arctic Country Where His | Kind Are Few Winnipeg, Mgtt., March 17.-— One of bound regions of Chesterfield, Inlet,! on the Hudson's Bay, 2,000 miles frou civilization, Were winter not infre quently means a temperature of 60 or | more degrees below zeyo, has reached Winnipeg for his first holiday since the war began, John Fitzpatrick, fur trader, adven-; turer, and vanguard of civilization, is the man. He gave a thrilling account of his journey from Chesterfield In-, let to Cochrane, almost 2,000 miles. | . Vitzpatrick started from the Inlet a few days before Christmas, with a team of eight dogs, and a 40-fool, sleigh, carrying a load of 2,000 pounds which comprised “grub” for 30 days for himself and two Eskimos and his catch of furs. Nothing was taken for i the animals, the Eskimos being ac- customed to rely upon game caught in transit as food for the dogs. The first stopping place was to be Fort Churchill. But the elements were unfavorable, and at the end of 39 days, the party‘was still on the trail and far from their objective. The; had. run out of food, also, and for nine days they subsisted on: “Iron ra tions.” Fitzpatrick allowed himsel¢ one biscuit of “hard-tack” a day, while the Eskimos consumed about two pounds of raw blubber. During this period, severe weather set in, and Fitzpatrick’s finger-tips on both hands were frost-bitten. The Eskimos checks were frozen, and two dogs succumbed to the cold and from starvation as no food was available for them. Two days from the fort, a party of Eskimos were sighted, and they turned over a small stock of flour and meat to the travellers. The meat had to be eaten raw, as it was. impossible to attempt to cook it, owing to ths ‘ength of time required. Boiling a ket- tle of water, for instance, would re- quire three hours. ey gr After a short;rest at Fort Churchill Fitzpatrick started on the remaining thousand-milg journey to Cochrane, Ont., which is the nearest railway sta~ tion. On this journey he did nat fare as badlyeas on. the previous trip. Frequently meeting, Eskimo, tribes, he was hospitably received’ and per- mitted to sleep in their “igloos” or ice huts. The Eskimos;he said, sleep in bags made of moose or deer skin, and crawl into them naked. During the’ day the wear two sets of. fur clothes, the “underwear” being a suit made of animal skin, with the haik turned inward, while the “street clothes” have the hair turned outward. There is a plentitude of moose in the north ‘country this year Fitzpat- tick said. Ju KANSAS WOMEN MAKE PARK OUT .

Lynn, secretary of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce, “Through the untiring efforts enterprising women the mudholes of the | original ightly tract were drained, the weeds extinguished, while stags and flowers sprang up in, their places.
