WITH THE BREAK Of DAWN
Birth Of a New Day as Seen and De-
scribed by One Who Had the
Vision Of the Poet.

As we proceeded, the timid approach
of twilight became more perceptible.
the intense blue of the sky began to
soften, the smaller stars, like little
children, went first to rest; the sister
beams of the Pleiades soon melted
together, but the bright consultations
of the west and north remained un-
changed. Steadily the wondrous trans
figuration went on. Hands OF angels
hidden from mortal eyes shifted the
scenery Of the heavens; the glories
of night dissolved into the glories OF
the dawn. The blue sky now turned
more softly gray; the great watch
stars shut up their holy eyes; the east
began to kindle. Faint streaks OF
purple soon blushed along the sky;
the celestial conclave was filled with
the inflowing tides Of the morning
light, which came pouring down from
above in one great ocean Of radiance,
till at length. as we reached the Blue
hills, a fash of purple fire blazed out
from above the horizon and turned the
dewy teardrops Of flower and leaf into
rubies and diamonds. In a few sec
onds the everlasting gates Of the
morning were thrown wide open and
the lord of day, arrayed in glories too
severe for the gaze Of man. began his
state.-Everett.

Crantz is quoted as saying:
The Greenlanders consider them

the world. They are far superior In
their own estimation to the Euro

subject of raillery for their social par
