One cannot wear great amount of
clothing on a snowshoe trip, and
even so, the perspiration just rolls
from one, and at night it gets bitter
cold. The country cannot be reached
by dogs, as it is too rongh. Old
prospectors who know say that the
trip is much worse than to 90 to
Klondike.

Things That the World Needs.

There are many things that the world
needs. and there is much work to be
done in many directions; but most OF all
does the world need God, most of all
does it need righteousness, faith, hope
and love. The world needs better con-
ditons for its poor and wretched. better
tenements in which to house them: but
it needs also better lives for the tene.
ments when built. 1t needs bettersoppor-
tunities for its teeming multitudes; but
it needs also clearer vision to see the OPP
portunities and stronger wills to grasp
them. The world needs scientific knowl-
edge, but it needs religious emotion as
well. 1t needs its thunderous industries,
but it needs the sense of kinship to God.
1t needs its practical ideals; but it needs
supremacy the vision OF the Highest. AS
