SALVAGING YOUTH
Among the recent proposals in Congress was one
calling for the appropriation of $22,000,000 for the War
Department to be used in concentrating 88,000 youths 17
years of age and up, in military camps where they would
be fed and given military training. The idea was to sal
vage the army of youth wandering about the country
and unemployed.
According to estimates provided by the War De
partment, the maintenance of these boys would cost
about $250 per year. . 1 .
The ultimate result of this well-intentioned bene
faction would be negligible as it relates to the future of
these boys. And the government, as pointed out by Rep.
Ross H. Collins of Mississippi, would eventually reflect
itself in adding, in hospitalization, etc., a burden of
$100,000,000 annually.
One thousand selected youth equipped with a grub
stake of $500 cash and a ticket to Alaska, placed under
the direction of frontiersmen capable of teaching them
the rudiments of frontier life would add more benefit
to the nation than any form of dole. It would have the
effect of setting an army of youth to take up where the
older frontiersman left “off and carry on, while at the
same time recovering the element of self-reliance, clean
living and healthful surroundings so essential to human
progress. ... - , *
Let some of these multi-millionaires now looking to
Congress to take over the burden or relieving a condition
through which these men acquired these swollens for
tunes, step out and lay their money on the line.

nel into the murky atmosphere of
the interior there is always a dog
or two lying in the tunnel. It is
up to you to bite or kick the dog
before he bites you.
“But that atmosphere! The na
tives. depending upon animal heat
rather |han other mjeans of
warmth, have little ventilation.
| In deference to his presence the
Eskimos sometimes opened the air
vent in the roof.
“In this instance,” said Fr. Men
ager, “one usually received a sec
: ond baptism from the dripping
waters and snow.”
What with dogs, children, adults,
dried fish and seal meat, burning
seal oil while cooking, it must have
been in one of these subterranean
habitations that the advertising
man discovered the word halitosis
| and the initials B. O., according to
Fr. Menagers’ description.
But if the Hooper Bay warrens
i are deterrents to the gadabout,
i King Island doors offer even a
: greater feat of acrobatics.
“The doors are not more than
; two feet square,” said Fr. Menager.
i There is but one sure way of in

Passing with his illustrations to
! more inviting habitations the big
| missions at St. Micheals and Holy
Cross reveal the wonderful labor
of love the priests and sisters are
performing and the edifying re
I suits as depicted in the personal
; habits and intellectual advance
| ment of the Eskimos.
Fr. Menager’s supervision ex
tends over an area of 300.000
square miles and embraces ap
proximately 5,000 people. These
are given spiritual, educational and
medical ministrations bv 32 sisters,
17 fathers and 10 brothers of the
Church and its various orders.
! This service emanates from 40 mis
! sions of which 12 are main mis
, sions. like Holy Cross and St. Mi
| chaels.

j tic talents, Fr. Menager is a pian

equipped voice for rare vocal work.
He closed his program by reciting
the Lord’s Prayer in Eskimo, and
followed with an Eskimo lullaby
sung in the Eskimo language and j
taking a range from deep baritone!
to a peculiar falsetto necessary to
render the necessary shading to
the primitive tongue. Then he gave
the kiddies present in the audi
ence something to snicker over.!
First was a boys’ song in a comic
vein, followed by one especially
tempered to suit the little girls,
and seasoned the vocal numbers
with an Irish lullaby.
A high tribute was delivered by
the speaker to Dr. Romig for an
act of humanitarianism in mak
ing a long mush to render medical
aid to one of the aged mission
priests who froze his feet, while1
himself on a mission of mercy.
Fr. Menager is en route to the
States for a vacation and will sail
on the SS Yukon.
Despite the fact that the sub
ject matter lies almost at our back
door, the large audience who en
joyed the privilege of listening to
Fr. Menager found it packed wtih
interest and highly instructive.
