There's been & lot of discussion about letting him in, and the Government at Washing- ton wired to-day to pass htm. So he gets in, eee? Now here's the story: “‘He came in last Thursday on the Red Cross steamship Stephano, which runs up to Labrador. The boy's name ie—that ts Eskimo, now—A-8-W-A- T-U-K, get that? It means “Man ‘Who Knows How to Make Snowballa” or “The Igloo Kid,” or something like that. . “He's been under the patronage of the Grenfell Mission up in the ice region, pital at St. Anthony’s, which fs at the upper end of Newfoundland.

Oh, I forgot, the in- spectors say his father was a gefilte fisherman in Labrador. “Well, when the Inspectors told bim be couldn’t set foot ashore he began to blubber—say, that’s good Eskimo stuff, I guess. He wanted to come ashore the worst way—say, he's the beat one-stepper in Labrador. “Say, I didn’t tell you bow the boy lost his foot.

The polar bear was headed right in, though, and the foot didn't stop him for longer than a minute. It took him just that long to bite it off. But the kid saved his mother. I think he kicked the bear out with his good foot. “When he came down from the mis- sion @ nurse from there, Miss Martha Leininger, who is twenty-eight years old and a beauty, came down with him. She lives in Mobnton, Pa., and she was going home and thought ohe'd get him a job.
