 MT. Andrews then introduced the following concurrent resolution, based upon an unusual incident he had read abont in the St. .;ohn's Herald, and moved its adoDtion:

 Conscious though We are that our fellow member and secretary. William Clark Halsey. has passed to life far fuller than our own. his departure leaves us with a sense of great per sonal loss and bereavement.
 His life among us was a true one. For his character We have the great est admiration. Although endowed with rare talents. he was quiet and unassuming. Faithful and patient in all his work, he was highly esteemed by all who knew him.
 His quiet. consistent effort in the cause of Jesus Christ has been an ex- ample and blessing to us Through him We have had renewed evidences of the power of the Spirit of God to make the life of a student pure, helpful. courag eous and in every way manly.

six months night through to the dawn,
seriously even if you have everything
an abundant foresight could have fro
vided for struggle which is too often
fatal because of it's terrible monotony
of severe hardship.
For night in the polar regions is
not an idle thing, neither is an attempt
to reach this lend of the earth SIM
pie voyage, a camping and a steady
march over a smooth field of ice. The
stoutest hearts are chilled by the long
desolate night, through all of which a.
world of ice groans and crackles. And
when the dawn comes, there is only an
encircling Whiteness of snow about to
dazzle the eyes and the breaking up of
the vast expanse Into chasms and PIN
nacles of glistening ice mountains.
1t is a harsh picture which you at
home may see-something like that of
the bleak shore of Norman's Woe on
which beats an icy shrouded ship with
the two occupants frozen stiff to the
mast. But Longfellow never lived be-
yond the Arctic circle and those who
may try to conjure up the terrors OF
the North forget that the polar regions,
grim and terrible as they are, have 10
hardships too great to be endured by
those impelled by such motives as are
the members of my party and backed
by such stores and a considerable de-
gree of comfort during our stay in the
frozen North. For the BaldwinZiegler
Polar Expedition prepared well-we
have tons of food for ourselves, the

mother bear. For some reason, Letting
wells rifle missed fire and had it not
been for the quick work of all of us
we could not have gotten out of the
difficulty unframed.
The choice parts of the bear meat
we keep for our own table; the gall,
spiked with a bit of cognac, makes an
excellent tonic, and the rest of the car
cass is put away for the use of the
dogs. Besides bear and walrus we have
captured a few seal and some of the
members of the "Frithjof" party have
had some good duck shooting.
The few other kinds of game are I'M
important and of little value as food
To be sure, there are elder ducks and
some small birds. as well as a variety
of smaller animals, mollusks, ETC., but
most of these are to the south of our
present winter camp. The two prac-
teal articles of food to be obtained out
side of our own supplies are polar bear
and walrus. Before the Frithloff re-
turned from Camp Zeigler on Alger ISL
and we had already stored away sew
eral tons of walrus and bear meat from
the hunting done on the way up and
this store will be increased as fast as
may be.
When our expedition sailed we took
with us a supply of food large enough
to keep our party of fortytwo men
alive for three years. For the seven
Siberian ponies we have enough hay
and oats to keep them in good condition
until we reach the northernmost camp,

safe to handle, for though formidable
enough to the creatures of his own size,
he cannot bite through the human
skin. You see how quick he is, and
can imagine how fierce and terrible
he must seem to the sluggish worms
and insect larvae on which he feeds.
In spite of his name he doesn't really
have a hundred legs, but only fifteen
pairs, jointed like an insects; and, like
all eentipedes, he has only one pair to
each segment as the parts of the body
between the joints are called. Besides
his thirty legs he has a pair of big
poison claws, which he carries folded
forward, one on each side of his head.
His prey he kills with these claws,
their wound being instantly fatal to
small animals.
Very unlike the fierce and active CEN
tipede is another creature about as
long, but with a slender, round dark
body and very short legs. Some young
folks call this worm but he Is not
a worm at all, but millipede, or

alone are sufficient breakfasts to last
our party three years.
To my mind, one great reason Tor
the many former failures to reach the
pole has been the perfectly natural re-
suit of attempting too great task
with too little a supply of food. The
problem of how an Arctic expedition Is
to feed itself is the most important.
believe that we have solved that prob
lem. Our tons of food in condensed
form must be multiplied many times
before it is compared with that of for
n,er expeditions and to this we have
added bear and walrus meat in large
quantities. Instead of loading our dogs
down with seventyfive to hundred
pounds each, as has been the rule here
tofore. we shall allow not more than
twenty-five pounds to dog. The dogs
themselves, Weighing about seventy
five pounds each, will yield, II Killed,

dogs and the ponies, and our guns will
add much to this store. No expedition
has ever gone out with so complete
an equipment.
There are only two sources of sup
ply for an Arctic party after naviga-
ton closes-the cargo it has brought
along and the wild game to be found
IN the ice pack, So an expedition in
search for the North Pole needs to
search for little else. The food which
is brought along must be the mainstay
of life.
The game, of course, is supplement
tai, but, because fresh meat is neces-
sary to prevent scurvy among the
members of the party and also because
the hunting itself offers a means OF
diversion and recreation, this source
Of food supply becomes an important
factor On my previous trips to Franz
Josef Land 1 had decided that the
western coast Of Alger Island was
iavorite feeding ground of the walrus.
Here there is plenty of mollusks and
such other food as the walrus is ac-
customed to dig up with his huge
tusks. I considered it very fortunate,
therefore, that our first Arctic camp
was pitched on the southwest coast
OF Alger Island, and we had not been
located there long before the truth of

where they will be killed, each one
yielding 800 pounds for dog food. In
addition over 100 tons of dog food were
taken aboard at Tromsee, Norway, to
sustain our pack of CANNES. Now all
this supply will of itself be sufficient,
we feel sure, to carry us to the pole
and over the other side of the world
down to the coast of Greenland, where
we shall find a further supply of food
left by the Belgica for our use. But in
case we shall not accomplish our first
dash to the Pole, let us see how we
shall be fixed. In the first place, we
shall not have taken all our supplies
on the march--tons of food will be
stored at different stations along the
way as far as Jackson's old camp at
Cape Flora. Then, if need be, the dog
food, which includes pemmican, dried
fish and dog biscuit, is good enough for
the human members of our party to
eat We shall not be driven to the ex-
tremity of making the dog pack self

was a chase to remember. The great
bulls made no attempt to escape until
twenty of the herd were slaughtered.
Meantime they charged our boats with
their tusks and roared loudly as thew
fought. Then the remainder of the
herd gave up the unequal contest and
diving and swimming for a long time
under the surface, got away. One of
our boats followed against wind and
ude Tor nearly three miles
UNTIL reaching the ice pack,
the herd made a stand They
had taken refuge behind the shore ice
and the whole lot glared out defantlv
at us from water hole Two men
worked their way over the ice and
drove the entire herd out from behind
the fragment of an iceberg and then
began game of hide and seek which
lasted for an hour before we secured
another prize. The walruses dove and
struggled out of one hole into another
and were so skillful in avoiding us
That we had no chance to hurl a har-
poon or fire a rifle with any effect.
Finally the herd separated and we
charged one group, out of which we
were able to get four good size animals.
One mornings hunt had netted us
twenty-four walruses and increased
our supply of dog food by several tons.
In nine cases out of ten, hunting the
polar bear is about as much sport as
shooting the family COW, but, if you
happen TO venture on a tenth case, be-
ware. The mother bear will fight hard
for her cubs and If she gets within
striking distance of her foe, he has
little chance of escape. With our mod
ern guns, there is often a danger of
over-confidence. On one of our hunting
trips, there were three of us together
when we sighted four bears, a mother
and three cubs, coming towards us to-
