White whalers| were rapidly exhausting this source of native food and the reindeer was | | planned "as a substitute. Only 15 280 head were shipped in and from these it is estimated that there are | now in excess of half a miilion ani- mals. About 180,000 are in white or non-native ownership and these are freely intermingled with the | native-owned deer throughout many of the ranges. Whites Enter Picture About 25 years ago white men en- tered the reindeer business with a wascnable evpectauun that this Chapter One The Son Of Lightning i HESE many, many years ago the God of Lightning was sitting thoughtfully at his desk in his great, white castle in the North. He turned the pages of a calendar as though he were remembering his fiery deeds. Then he turned to the page for the next day. There he found scribbled, “My ‘son’s twenty-first birthday.” He leaned forward, his gaunt face broke into a flashing smile, and he pulled a bell cord beside him. A gong boomed. Feet came running and a servant stuck his head in the door. “Call the winds,” shouted Light- ning. In a twinkling there was a pu ng against the window at his right. He opened it and in swooped a dozen ladies in long, gray mist. They flew up and down sighing, “Wh-wh-a-a-t?” “Summon the fairy world here for tomorrow noon,” said Light- ning. “Then my son "turns twenty- one. He shall have a feast and then set out on his adventures.” So off the winds swept, and the God of Lightning went to bed. At dawn he was up. He commanded great wreathes of ‘glowing light- ning hung at the gates, He swung festoons of Northern lights from the castle’s towers: glowing mists of red, green and purple. He com- manded a feast be laid and then he summoned his son. He sat down to wait, He heard light, run- ning steps. His son entered the room: a tall, graceful young man, handsome as a prince. His shoul- ders were broad, his head was car- ried proudly, his smile flashed so brightly from deep, michievous eyes that it was hard to tell their color. He wore a blue jerkin, blue knee breeches, and about his slim waist, a silver belt. The Silver Flute He shouted with joy when his father told him that this was his first day of manhood. But just then both of them heard a great clamor at the front gates. The whole fairy world was arriving. Little rain fairies their pockets full of fireflies to keep them warm. Flower fairies wrapped in pussy willow catskins. Trolls that rode the back of snails. at. the Capitol Theaire.

During the early years of the in- dustry, under ideal conditions; that is, all herds, constant herding, excellent feed and ample new range, the reindeer increased from 33 to 40 percent each year. The loss from straying was ne"]wxblv no predators Three huge giants who had walked half way around the world since dawn, carrying between them a bag, big as a house, filled with fruits from the South. Even the witches came, “Welcome” shouted Lightning. “Follow me. I have arranged a tournament.” The whole company flew, ran, hopped after Lightning into the great, stone-walled court yard where Lightning announced, “We of the fairy world can touch the bottom of the sea and the brightest rim of heaven. Today a new one joins our ranks and he must test his strength. I want a pale blue nbbon from the highest rim of the sky.” In a twinkling the sky was dot- ted with floating forms. The son of Lightning rose like a flash. Soon the soaring forms were lost in the heavens. any minutes passed and then the sky was filled with forms dropping gayly down, down. They all carried strips of pale blue. But the son of Lightning had the palest one. He had flown the highest and the swiftest. He shouted with joy. Suddenly on his shanlder etood lust then a little black witch dyopped on His dlher J‘hpu/a’&f' Ty constant fawn mertality. Natural losses were | held to be a minimum as the deer could be moved to open wind-swept hijlsides, in the winter during per- iodsof deep snow and thus avoid the heavy. losses caused by food short- age.

But just then a_little black witch dropped on his other shoulder. She handed him a black opal. “This,” she said, “will make it less easy.” You see she was angry. that any one could fly faster than she di Lightning lrowned at the witch, and suddenly pulled a silver ar- row of fire from a quiver that hung from his left shoulder. He hurled it at the witch. It tore her long black cape and then spun through the air down, down to the villages of men, he witch flew off whimpering. Lightning shrugged his shoulders, fe‘? his arm around his son, and the whole party into a great feast that lasted until thé moon stopped in to tell them the hour. The next day the son of Lightning set out on a year’s adventures. TOMORRCW: The King of Wegtohalia.

Here’s ‘the | | \ pesiog | | | range management plans were which of course would cost | | considerable money for herders and | round-ups. This_ joint range occu- | pancy caused many serious range disputes, reminiscent of the old days | of the West, and as it has been im-| possible to install an efficient plan | of range management, because of the inabiiity of the owners to bear | the costs, the reindeer are fast re- a wild state. The no natives cannot afford to herd their| | deer constantly and the natives will | not because of the. mixing, on the range. Many deer have drifted eas ward and intermingled with the car: | ibou where they are then lost |n ! the owners. Unless remedial action is taken in the near future the rein- | | deer herds of the North country will | become so seriously depleted that the Eskimos will be faced with star-| vation congditions. The éxtinguish- ing of the white equity will pave the way for good range management and an increase, in the number of animals to a point where sales off hides and other products should pay all operating costs of the herds. 4. Reimbursement Small | In a number of cases the whites through sale of theirwreindeer to the Government will be reimbursed in part for their expenditures in build- | ing up the industry but ncne wiil| receive more than a vary small per- centage of amounts invested.. The appropriation - limits the average vayment {0 $4 per head. Many dzer | have previcusly been sold as brecd-l ing stock for as much as $30 per head. Congress chose to save this indus- | try for the natives to make them self-sustaining rather than placing them on a dole or allowance for all future time, The method chosen is congidered the least costly, the most satisfactory and will result in higher living standards and greater devel- | opment for the Eskimo civilization. | The reindeer purchased by the Guv-J ernment will gradually be distribut- ed among native associations in lo- calities where there are no deer at present or the local herds hnvei become seriously depleted because of | straying, loss by wolves or other | R WOMEN OF MOOSE'CARD PARTY There will be a card party Dec. 6.
