Discovery Of. the Pacific Ocean.

Three hundred and sixty-eight years
ago, the great ocean how known a. tie
Pacific had never been seen by white
men. II was Vasco Nnnez de Balboaca
Spanibrd. who saw it for the first time.
He had heard about it iron the In
dfans when Ne was ON the IsshniuA of
Darien. at the eastern side. It was
only sixty miles across. the Isthmrs;
but there was no road, and the way was
beset, with DAM Sts. Hemadas the In
dams friendly By his good trestmept of
them, and they did what. they could to
help him. It took him twenty.six days
to cross the Isthmus. 6Then'he learned
from his Indian guide that ffdm. the
next high hill he could see the ocean.
This was ON the a9tA. of September,
1918. A@-& e.e7 $50
Balboa and his men toiled up the hill;
and when near tha.-top, he cried out
''Haltr' His men halted, and then he
climbed up the highest peak. What q
glorious sight! There lay the great
Pacific Ocean spread out blue and
smooth before him. Beneath him lay
hill, wood and valley. Moved by the
sight. Balboa kneit; xnd thanked God.

which he placed ON . heap of stones.
On it he wrote the names of the King
and Queen of Spain. Then going down to
the shore he stood on the sand till the
water reached his knees. In one hand
he held his sword, in the other the flag
of CASTLE. He then said. in aloud voice,
':Long live the high and mighty. King
and Queen of CASTLE! In their: name
take these seas and lands, and Z am
ready to defend their right against all
who mar claim them.m,. AsA
Thus Spain laid claim to thS' country.
The news of what Balboa had done
made great noise in Europe. It was
looked on IS discovery only second in
importance to the discovery of America
by Columbus.
