I Montreal was tame. Paul's first
thrill came when Duke Schiller
boarded the cockpit, there. At Sud
bury, Ont.. he and Duke Schiller
I were arrested because the pilot did
not carry a license.
Paul did not mind being under
arrest for three days, at the end of
which he got another pilot and
both flew northward to Join Jack
Hammel at Read Lake After an
other series of flights they landed
at Baker Lake In the Northwest
territories where they were to Join'
the prospectors. The northern
most point they reached. Paul said
yesterday, .as about :i,000 miles
from the Bronx at Chesterfield In
let in the Arctic Circle.
It was at Chesterfield where they
met Eskimos, who noticed with won
derment how the amphibian, whose
pontoons had been broken, stopped
flying and lay stockstill on the snow
They could not understand, he said,
how the Tlngmuck (bird ot the alri
ceased soaring.
But the flyers were not destined
to meet the prospectors, who were
supposed to await them They had
lost the trail and left a note that
they were trekking back to civiliza
tion. One of them died and the oth
er they found later on with frozen
feet, which eventually were ampu
tated. This ended the prospecting
trip this year. I
"Speaking of companionate mar
riage," Paul said, "why the Eski

at birth, and If, when they grow
up they don't like their nudes Why
they can Just swap wives with an
other disgruntled hmbund. But
the husband retains the right to
Uke back his babyhood love any
time he chooses.
"Eskimos Insist that thetr wives
take the vow of obedience at the
.wedding ceremony. Among the
wife’s duties Is the Job of chewing

Now you will laugh at me. "Sure

No, I don't. Tlut. babies require

Strip off all those thick garments
and bands. Then see what the baby
does.
Find a place In your house where
a wide couch, the bed, or a strip of
carpet can get the full effect of the
bright sunshine. Make sure it Is
warm enough in that room not to
chill the baby. Spread a sheet on
the chosen spot and place the naked

When Is Best Time

News & Observer.
What is the best time to work?
In what hours is a man's mine} at
its best? If these questions should
be asked of the members of the
staff of a morning paper, the an
swer would be, “The best writing
is done in the night." The old
time editors, who worked until 3
a. iii., would say they could do their
best thinking around midnight. And
morning paper writers would face-!
tiously say that the reason the1
morning papers were better than
the afternoon papers is because it
requires the quiet of the dark to
stimulate to the best achievement.
On the other hand, those who make
an afternoon paper would say that

him as saying:
