DOGS STILL HOLD PLACE IN ARCTIC Ottawa. Jan. 23—(UP) —Government explorers and investigators rej tured from the far north declare that while the airplane is of great I value in mineral prospecting and in commupnications between the Arctic regions and civilization, the Eskimo dog will long remain the big factor in transportation there.

The legs are short but very strong and the feet small and compact and densely furred be tween the toes.
