That much was plain to the passerby. It was not a picnic because the only parents in the group were there to say “Goodbye, be a good boy.” The children were not a healthy group, yet they were ndt sick. They were undernourished, weak, bordering dan- gerously near the tubercular line and were going out to where they would give old dreaded “White Plagus” a solar plexus blow. They were ticketed for the New Britaln ¥resh Air camp at Burlington. The last child had climbed onto the | The last goodbye had been gaid.

JUSTICE IN FAR NORTH Judge Lucien Dubuc Heads Judicial Party Into Herschel Island to Try 11 Eskimos on Murder Charges. Edmonton, Atla., July 6.—Headed by Judge Lucien Dubuec, a judicial party has left Edmonton for Her- schel Island, in the Arctic, where 11 Eskimos will be tried on charges of murder. This is the first occasion on which the Eskimos have been tried |for murder in their own country; all previous trials have been carried on “‘outside,” it is said. Those to be held at Herschel Island represent tribes from all over the western Arctic. Their capture and subsequent handing over to the police at Herschel by the Royal Canadian mounted police was commended. A number of the Eskimos were brought in by dog teams for 1,000 | miles or more along the bleak shores of the Arctic. One constable charged with the delivery of a prisoner had no companion but the prisoner him- |self. Every night one helped the other to build snow igloos and make camp. Despite almost insurmountable | obstacles, the “mountie” won through and delivered his prisoner. The thtle Store With Big Values | 10-in. Mallaisons SILK EPONGE Value §3.50. $1 .9 8 |§ Sat. ..
