given brotherly sympathy to the trio

strain was made the descent to canine

willingly did a prodigious amount of
work each day, and then as bedfellows
they offered their fur as shelter and
bones as>head rests to their two footed
companions. We had learned to appre-
ciate the advantage of their beating
breasts. The bond Of animal fellow

a long run o. successive adventures.
And now there was stronger reason
than ever to appreciate power, for to-
gether we were seeking an escape
from a world which was never intend
ed for creatures with humping hearts.
Much very heavy ice was crossed
near the eighty-eighth, but the endless
-unbroken fields Of the northward trails
were not again seen. The weather
changed considerably. The light cut
ting winds from the west increased in
force, and the spasmodic squalls came
at shorter intervals The clear purple
and blue Of the seas were gradually
changed to light gray and a rush OF
frosty needles came over the pack for
several hours each day.
Gould Brook No Delay.
The inducement to seek shelter in
cemented walls Of snow and wait for
better weather was very great. But
such delay forestalled certain starva-'
ton. Under fair conditions there was
barely food enough to reach land,
while even short delays might easily
jeopardize our return. We could not,
therefore, do otherwise than to force
ourselves against the wind and drift
with all possible speed, closing the eye
to unavoidable suffering.
With no alternative, we tried to per-
suade ourselves that conditions might
be worse.
The eighty-seventh was crossed, the
eighty-sixth was neared, but there
came q time when both mind and body
wearied Of the whole problem Of forced
resolution.
The hard work of igloo building was
now thing of the past-only one had
been built since leaving the pole, and
in it precious day was lost-while
the atmospheric fury changed the face
Of the endless expanse Of desolat1on.

The pack drift proved quite active,
and we were quickly carried eastward

LONDON. January l6-British ship

craft. bids for which have been invited.
The shiphuilding industry is at such a
low ebb on account of depression in the
mercantile marine that most Of The yards
are running part time and many men
are without work.
The Argentine project will give welcome
business owners, and they are likely to
make tenders on such a narrow margin
of profit for the purpose of keeping the
work going that American firms will be
unable to compete. The only rivals to
the British firms will be possibly Italians.
Argentina proposes TO build two battle
ships which are to be somewhat stronger
They are to he of .000G tons, and will
carry d dozen Finch guns. A special
feature of the armament will be sec
cndary batteries of ten or more 6-inch
guns.
The Argentine government has also
asked tenders for torpedo boat destroyers,
the number of which has not yet been
decided, but is understood to be between
eight and sixteen. These vessels are to
be of $40 and 40 tons.
The republic of Argentina is reporte ed

ships the Brazilian government is now
building here and cancel the order for a

under discussion usually came from per-

that If vote We're taken among the

would be opposed to the retirement

Disagrees With Burkett.
Representative Goulden, who was not on
the program to speak but who was in
vited to do so after he arrived AT the
meeting. took issue with Senator Burkett.
Henry O'Neill, the we'll known New York
educator had once told him. he said,
that a woman teacher for the first ten
years of her service spent more time
chasing husband than she did in at
tending to her school work. After that.
if she failed in her quest and renamed
teacher. she turned her attention to her
duties and improved wonderfully.
Teachers needed experience to be cap
able according to the New York repre-
sentative. The retirement plan encourages
good teachers to stay in the schools and
the experience of the New York and
Brooklyn school boards in adopting such
a system furnished an excellent example
for other cities to follow.
Much Valuable Information.
In the address of Lyman \. Best of
New York the audience found a wealth of
practical information. For seventeen
years Mr.. Best worked on the retirement
problem in New York For twenty-five
years he has been an active teacher and
is now principal of one of that citys larg-
est public schools. He furnished his hear
ers with all sorts of statistics and, after
the meeting had adjourned, discussed with
many of them the practical phases of the
situa ton. He said he approved heartily
of the plan of the retirement committee
and hoped Congress would enact the
necessary legislation to put in into effect
Capt. oyster, on behalf of the school
board, thanked those who had arranged
the luncheon and the speakers When
it came time for Capt. oyster to speak
Senator Burkett had left the building be-
ing called away by a previous engage
ment. Capt. Oyster said he regretted the
senator's departure because he would have
enjoyed an opportunity to reply to some
of the senator's statements.
