THE ANTARCTIC CONTINENT.
Il Wa First Discovered by q Daring
Yankee Sailor In 1921.

"
Yankee Sailor In 1921.
History presents from time to
time some curious anomalies, and
not the least among these is the
story of the original discovery of
the great continent surrounding
the south pole, says Outing. A
grim, inaccessible coast, guarded
from mans approach by fields of
impossible ice foes and bergs, it
resisted all efforts of the ablest Of
early explorers to win its shores,
only to be discovered at last by a
boy of eighteen in command of q
little forty ton sloop.
Nathaniel Palmer was the lads
name, and he came of the best Of
old New England seafaring stock.
After some preliminary training at
sea, young Palmer sailed in 1912 or
1914 as second mate of q bark
bound for the sealing grounds of
the south Atlantic. After some
weeks of fruitless exploration and
terrific struggles with the wintry
gales of the region about Cape
Horn they came at last to the south
Shetland islands and soon had fill
ed the vessels hold with a fortune
in furs.
This voyage made such q stir in
all the New England seaport towns
on their return that before many
years a second expedition was fitted
out and Palmer, now Captain Nat,
was given command of a little down
east sloop called the Hero, which
was sent along in consort with the
larger vessels. This diminutive
craft could hardly have been more
than sixty feet in length, but she
wcathered successfully the rigors of
wind and sea and arrived in due
course at her destination.
At this time nothing was known

arctic circle-nor did Captain Nat
much care whether there was such
or not. What he was looking for
was seals. SO when he came upon
a long stretch of coast line facing
to the north in the vicinity of the
siXtieth meridian west Of Green
witch he examined the shore for
possible ]rookeries and, finding moth
ing but ice and penguins, sailed
away back again to the north'ard.
a few days after this the little
Hero fell in with two tall ships Of
the Russian navy under Command
er Bellingshausen. When young
Palmer went on board for lunch at
the commanders invitation and
mentioned casually his discovery of
land to the southland he must have
been surprised, indeed, to learn that

turned away from in disgust, these
mighty ships of the czar of all the
Russias had for two years been
seeking in vain.
Commander Bcllingshausen, to
do him justice, gave young Palmer
full credit for his discovery, and
this-the first portion of the ant
arctic continent to be seer by mar
lis set down upon the maps today
as Palmerland in enduring tribute
to the daring Of the Yankee sailor
lad who first caught sight of it from
the deck of a little sailboat in the
year Of grace 1921.

Desired results can only be OBJ
tanned where the teacher adopts the
attitude of leader and fellow stu
dent. But If all rural teachers,
whether trained or unframed, would
adopt the above policy the matter
of not having previous training
would not materially interfere with
the success of the work and the de-
sired reformation in the rural
schools would be accomplished, and

CASE OF MARQUARD.

Marquard's case is the most bat-
fling of them all The tall Rube
signed three year contract last sea-
son, and so has two campaigns yet
to run. It isn't matter Of more
coin, therefore, in this instance, but
rather matter of twisted tempera-
ment.
The Rube, while confessing that
he is quite a pitcher has gathered
the idea that only two great actors
ever lived-and as Edmund Vance
Cooke puts 1.-THE other man was
Booth"
He may report at the appointed
hour, but on the other hand, he
carries just enough of the bizarre
temperament to stick back of the
footlights. where the high price o.
eggs for the time being leaves hin
comparatively safe.

SPENT MONEY! FOR YOU.

If you are raising potatoes or II
you are engaged in any of the pur-
suits by which you receive any po-
tato money directly or indirectly you
are being helped by the advertising
done last year by the Oregon Short
Line in the eastern newspapers.
One of the favorite display ads in
serted in a large number of news
papers to exploit the Idaho potato
was illustrated by the use of pic
ture of a potato impersonating the
king of farm, wearing a crown of
rare jewels and occupying position
ofeminence over a field of potatoes.
The farm houses and buildings in
the distance and the pines on the
slope beyond are suggestive of the ir-
rigated farm, while the reading mat
ter tells of the potato being king in
Idaho any way 1t tells also of the
good yields of cereals and other
crops, of the opportunities to get
new farms, of the splendid climate
and other advantages.

AGRICULTURAL in THE RURAL
DISTRICTS.

A question quite often asked and
pondered upon by the rural teacher
is: Where shall l introduce Agricul
true in the school, the curriculum is
already over-crowded?" The reason
for this question is that in reality
there are very few rural teachers,
the so-called rural teachers being
simply elementary town teachers.
The demand for trained rural teach
ers is very great, while the. supply
is very small. Teachers who spend
so much time on the curriculum sell
dom ever achieve success. In all
things should agriculture in it's sim
pie forms be affiliated with the Ii
beral arts.
The proper place for the introduce

WOLGAST GETS DRAW WITH
HARLEM TOMMY.

Tommy Murphy and AID Wolgast
engaged in a twenty round bout that
was replete with action and at the
close Referee Jim Griffin promptly
declared it draw.
The men were boxing fiercely
within few seconds after the sound
of the starting gong of the opening
round. They boxed at breakneck
pace in every round that followed,
and they were still boxing when the
halt was called.
Griffin had to pull them apart
from savage rally in order to rem
der his decision. The fight was nota-
BILE for the degree of action crowded
into it. There were a few straight
punches, but in the main it was a
duel between a couple of rooters,
| pinned their faith to uppercuts. For
manyrounds it looked as though
Murphy was getting the better of
things.
Wolgast's lips were puffed and he
went to his corner after each spell
of fighting his face dabbled with
blood. The reason for this was that
Murphy at half arm work was far
the speedier of the two and could
p1a oh kurD IN ri 90 OF e
one.
Beginning the ninth round VOL
CAST changed his tactics. Instead of
centering his entire attention to polk
ing and jabbing at his Fostering OPP
ponent he began to infuse force in
to his right hand deliveries. He
sent Murphy back with crushing
rights that took the Harlem young
ster on the jaw. but it was not the
facers that enabled Wolgast to even
the score. He set himself and
smashed at Murphy's ribs and after
few of these body punches had
landed a distinct change could be
seen. Murphy's guard dropped and
his eyes seemed to go back far into
his head
There was corresponding change
in Wolgast's appearance From being
the under dog with discouraging
prospect of being worn down, he was
transformed to the leader. He
frightened and became brighter still
as the rounds progressed. He drew
level with his right body punches
and along about the sixteenth and
seventeenth rounds it was a question
whether Murphy would stay the linn
it.
Tommy's clean habits helped him,
but it was remarkable how the Har-
lem lad frightened after taking body
blows, the sounds of which might
have been heard back in the Mission
hills.
In the nineteenth and twentieth
rounds Wolgast, instead of relying
on an occasional right, gave punch
for punch with Murphy and the re-
suit was blizzardy finish.
The decision was well received.
The fight proved Wolgast is not and
never will be the champion he used
to bebefore he went to the hospital
for appendicitis

When your doctor looks to see II

mild, pleasant tasting and harmless

Interesting Suggestion Of the AdVan-
taqe of Rural Organization.

Interesting Suggestion or rne NoSah-
taae Of Rural Organization.
Editor of The Yorkville Enquirer.
With your permission / desire to
make use of the columns Of your pa
per to give publicity to an idea that
has been running in the minds or a
number of my neighbors and friends,
as well as myself, for some time, ana
think il should have consideration.
This idea comprehends the PROPOSE
tion of neighborhood organization for
neighborhood benefit. The old, old pro-
verb running What's everybody's bus
mess, is nobody's business" is as true
today as when Ii was first uttered. In
corporated towns and cities have prov
ed the value of board of trade. cham
ber of commerce, and civic improve
ment organizations, as helpful In the
promotion of community progress In
all lines, as we'll as in community pro-
lection, and 1t occurs to me that
neignborhood organizations along this
line would be equally beneficial in the
rural districts.
What have in mind Is an organiza-
ton that will include all the public
spirited citizens Of a given neighbor-
hood. Let them get together under
suitable constitution and bylaws, and
choose from among their representa-
five citizens, administrative officers In
whom they have confidence, ana lei
them be constantly in shape TO take
up. investigate and intelligently act
upon every question that may come up
among them. -
Such an organization as I have IN
mind would be distinctly non-pohtlcai
I would not want politics even discuss
ed. but outside of that, the wnoie
range of neighborhood thought ano
andeavorl would be open. When the
Community Is threatened with danger
