STEfANSS0N FINDS LOST CONTINENT
But It's the Continent From Which No Man Returns
By Fred l.. Boalt

II was more than year ago that saw Vhiamar
SefanSSon and his party sail the Karluk from the
ESqumault navy yard near Victoria in search OF the
Lost Continent For an hour at least Stefansson talked
to me of his plans and hopes.
He was sure Of success. His theory seemed to
him so sound that he did not see how he could fail
why" he asked, "do the currents in the Arctic
flow from Greenland along the Siberian coast insteaL
OF straight unless it is that they DETECTED
from the natural course by great body of land--a
continent? 1t is there know ii is there"
Them too, there were the blond Eskimos whom he
had found previous expedition the northern
edge of the American continent between the Macken-
zie river and Prince Albert Land. Brother scientists
had laughed at StefanssonS "blond Eskimos' and he
angrly determined that he would bring back such
proof OF the existence of these strange people would
turn the laugh on his critics.
The men of the party were as buoyantly sure of
success as was their leader. Young they were and
hardy-men of science and men of the sea- Their
ship was stout, equipment good.
They sailed away to search for the Lost Continent.
Some of them found ii, but they send no message.
They are dead men.
