And long before the seven years were ended Rogers had made a second resolution.

"Eight months of the year doen the river lay frozen," the writer jsays, "and the snow heaps up, while the children lead their busy school life and the parents trap the wolverines and the fox and descend heneath the snow into their subterranean dwellings. 'The Innuits have well defined customs from which they may not depart, and one of these, which makes 'education difficult, is this: The parent may not correct or punish the child. Hence our littie ones come to the convent with a great idea of their importance
and with their native stubbornness weighted with years of inherited formalism, and it requires wisdom and patience and all the powers of convent discipline to train these Jittle ones of the snow." Of the land she writes further: "But though nature seems so stern, so silent, she turns the pages of her great book with a kind and open hand for tha Eskimo. He reads her secrets aright and learns from her the prudence and endurance necessary in battling with her own gigantic forces." The Jesuit fathers of the north she describes: "Not reeds shaken by the winds, these sons of Ignatius, but stalwart pibneers, men who never think of gold or of themselves; men

His wife had collected $2,000 insurance from a fraternal order after identifying the body of a man resembling her husband, whom she had seen but once in three years. Several other persons agreed with her in the indentification. Jordan said he had been wandering about the country and had not learned of his "suicide."
