A Paradox of the Pole.

At the North Pole there is only one di-
rection-south. One could 90 south in
as many ways as there are points on the
compass card, but every one OF these
WAYS is south, east and west have van
ished. The hour of the day at the Pole
is paradoxical conception, for that
point is the meeting place of every me-
ridian, and the time of all holds good. so
that it is always any hour one cares to
mention. Unpunctuality is hence i'm
possible-but the question grows com
plex, and its practical solution concerns
few
No one needs TO go to the pole to dis
cover all that makes that point different
from any other point of the surface.
But the whole polar regions are full of
unknown things, which every Arctic
explorer of the right stamp looks for
ward to finding. And the reward he
looks forward to most is the approval Of
the few who understand and love knowl-
edge for its own sake, rather than the
noisy applause of the crowd who would
cheer him, after all, much as they cheer
a winning prize tighter or race horse or
political candidate.
The difficulties that make the quest of
the pole so arduOus have been discovered
By slow degrees. 1t is marvellous how
soon nearly the full limits of northward
attainment were reached. In 1896 Bar
ents discovered Spitzbergcn in about rs
degrees north; in 100 Hudson reached
so degrees; in 1927 Parry, by sedging on
the ice when his ship became fast, sue
cceded in touching 81 degrees Is min
utcs. Since then all the enormous re
sources of modern science -stcam. cleo
tricity. preserved foods, and the expcr-
iencc Of centuries have only allowed
forty miles of additional poleward ad
vazce to lie made McClure's Maga-
zine.
