Large areas of the South Ameri-

1t will surprise many to learn that
there are larger tracts UNEMPLOYED In
that region than in darkest Africa,
yet such is the fact.
A large majority of the cities along
the coasts Of South America, known
to every pupil in the public school,
were settled in the Columbian era.
Civilization is in fact much older
there than in North America. Yet
for nearly 300 years there has net
been much organized attempt to eX-
plore the interior. The first eXpadi-
ton sent out by South American
government was in 1875. Many OF
these countries are without exact
maps of their own territory. Most Of
the maps in use have been made by
explorers from Europe or the United
States.
The greater part Of the immense
tract of land in the middle of the con-
tinent from Venezuela to Chilli has
not yet reached the toughest pioneer
state of settlement. A considerable
part of Colombia is still wholly UNI
