Ths Whaling Indr.try.

The trials and tribulltions Of the
whaling industry defy the mcagcr jus
tee which the u of a single par
agraph affords. y volume might cover
the subject. The difficulty about whal-
ing is the uncertainty of whales. These
mammals decline to be regulated by any
signal service reporter and refuse in
their miGratiOuS to respect precedent or
the ambitions OF the arctic oil works.
The consequence is IL skipper may cruise
the northern ATTITUDES, trying cOnClu-
slons with iccbergs and polar bears, en-
dangering life and limb in n NANCY old
tub, encountering the pcrils of storm,

cursed the misfortune which detained
him among the iccbcrgs! How he rallied
at fate! Two days later Il school Of

1t seems the height Of abSurditv to

for his work? Aside from EIanklin'scir-
cumstanccs being against its authentic
ity, his ''Autobiography' is silent upon
so important Il subject as this portrait,
and its history is purely mythical.
Another picture that has no better
claim to be considered a likeness of Ben
jamin Franklin hangs i'll the Mctropoli-
tan Museum of Art and was painted by
Stephen Elmer, an English still life
painter. There is nothing to show that
it was given the name of Franklin until
1924, when ii plate engraved by Ryder
and published i'll l1S2, us 1.-The Politi-

the name of Franklin.

this cxpurgatorial list is of the first i'm
portancc as Il work of art. 1t was paint
ed by Thomas Gainshorough and is i'll
