ACTORS SUSPENDED
! HOLLYWOOD, July 17, (/P)—
Louise Dresser, Tully Marshall and
three other screen actors were sus
pended by the Actors Equity Asso
ciation. It is understood the ac
tion resulted because they signed
contracts for making “talking” pic
tures, without the permission of
the association.
which they distribute among their
husbands and sons. If any stran
ger or visitor happens to be there,
he is always presented with Kan
tak of food.
Whiskey is called “taunak” a
corruption of our English word
tonic; a saloon was called “taun
avik” a place where whiskey is
to be had.
The Innuit are fond of listen
ing to stories. When all the in
mates of a kazhga have settled
down for the night someone will,
say, tell a story. Every village
has some popular story teller and
whose thrilling tales serve to be
guile the long winter evenings.
Innuit have a very soft melod
ious voice and while relating a
story the speaker always talks
in a very low tone. At the close
Df a sentence he takes a deep
Dreath and adds “toi” The aud
ence have the habit of frequent- j
y interrupting the speaker by j
'epeating his last sentence in an ;
nterrogative form- Where upon
;he speaker simply reaffirms his ;
statement with an additional toi
ind keeps on with his subject, j
In most cases the audience has
Iropped off to sleep before the
;nd of the story. In many stories I
songs are introduced; very sel
lom does a story contain any de
ription of natural scenery, many
itories contain accounts of sor
cerers, ogres, giants, dwarfs and
nermaids. In one old story there
s an account of how the fox be- j
came red through shame at be- j
ng out-matched in strategy by j
i ptarmigan. In nearly all the J
itories an orphan is the hero
vho surmounts all obstacles and j
inally triumphs. All stories fin
sh with the word “etaugweuk” ;
vhich means that it is the end. i
