Cook.
Greensboro Christian Sun.

One OF the unaccOuntable events of
recent months is the conduct of DR..
Frederick Cook who in September
last claimed to have discovered the
North Pole. Prior to this episode,
Mr.. Cook was a man of wide repute
as scientist and explorer. He had
been Jealous, ambitious, self-denying,
capable. He was a man of humble
birth and rearing, and had won his
way TO the front by superior skill and
effort. When his discovery was an
nounced, those who knew him best
believed him most His findings and
data were presented to the University
OF Copenhagen. This high authority
having made full and fair investiga-
ton now declare that Cooks data
are insufficient, and virtually declare
the mans claims to be fraudulent.
Cook stands before the world today
a fake and a fraud. The only expla-
nation seems to be that he allowed
his ambition to outrun his Judgment,
his veracity, his integrity. 1t were a
thousand times better for Cook that
he had never set sail for the arctic
region. His ambititn, like that oil
= many other men, has been his undo
ing. Ambition without the check and
seasoning of the Christian virtues is
aspiration turned hellWards.
