HONOR OF DISCOVERY
BELONGS TO AMERICA

London, Sept. 1.-THE honor OF
planting the national flag at the north
pole undoubtedly belongs to America, -
Lieutenant Z. II. Shackleton, the
English explorer who recently led an
expedition into the antarctic regions,
said today. The news within a week"
he continued, that two men have
reached the pole is an extraordinary
coincidence. We all expected to hear
Of Commander Peary's arrival some
time during the month, and We sin
cerely hoped that the result of his
years of effort and struggle would be
crowned with success.
"Peary undoubtedly got to the pole:
between him and DR.. Cook the pole
certainly has been reached. 1t is said
that Peary reached the goal April 6,
1909. 1t will be interesting to know
the date he left his base to go to the
polar sea and his rate Of travel north
wards. If Peary's speed comedies
with Cooks, this fact will go far IN
the eyes of the world, to clear the
question whether such as claimed by
Cook can be covered. The ice condi-
tons around Pearys camp in 1908
should approximate somewhat the
conditions observed by Cook, and that
will clear Up another point.
ut is extremely unlikely that the
metal cylinder left at the pole by Dr..
Cook will be found by Peary, because
Of the drifting Of the ice. II Peary
took a more westerly line there is q
possibility of his coming across the
cylinder, but such a find would be ex-
traOrdinaTy for a fall of snow would
be sufficient to hide all traces of this
tube.
"Peary, from what 1 know Of him,
would be the first to give credit to
any one who preceded him. Peary
deserved his success; he has devoted
his entire life to arctic exploration
and nobody has a wider knowledge of
arctic travel"
In conclusion. Lieutenant Shackle-
ton said:
While Peary's success will stop at
tempts to reach the north pole, there
is a lot of scientific work to be done
in the arctic regions which it will be
impossible to carry out On marches to
the pole, on account Of the quickness
of travel"
The question of ownership of the
land of the north pole is to come up
in the house of commons. Sir George
Parker has given notice of his inten-
ton of asking Premier Asquith wheth-
or this territory is not considered as
belonging to Canada and if DR.. Cook
has planted the American nag there,
whether or not this act gives the
United States any right of possession
of the region.

a Store by co-operatI

q SkOiS Wy SS-OpCI dLiOIs
In Lewiston, Maine, is a store
where they have demonstrated that
paying dividends to employees is
profitable. H. A. Free, treasurer Of
the great department store, says that
they have formed an employees club
for the purpose of increasing the eff
fciency of each employee. Free recog-
nizes that a man is paid according to
his efficiency, that is, according to
the service he is able to render with
out supervision. Some one says we
are all down on the books for SO a
day, but we do not annex this amount
because it is necessary to pay some
thing to those who supervise US. The
club in the great department store
meets every two weeks in a special
room in the store. Papers are read
and discussed which deal with the
welfare of the institution. The clerks
discuss the selling Of goods; how to
make window displays; how to adj
vertise successfully; how to prevent
leaks in certain departments; how to
secure new trade; how to make
Brown a customer; how to do more
work with fewer movements; how to
make the business machinery run
more smoothly-everythin is dis
cussed that has to do with the in
creasing of the efficiency OF the in
stitution. To this club all employees
are eligible.-From the Book-KeepeT
