GOING SOME.
Copyright, 1915. by D.. Frank Ccanel

Once men wrote with quill pen and
dried the ink by waving the paper in
the air or sitting sand on it. Then
steel pens were invented. Now they
use fountain pens, SO as to save the
time wasted by dipping the pen in the
inkstand. The ink is dried by blotters.

TERRA Del Fuego.

This group of islands just south of
South Ame rica and touched by the chill
of the southern polar regions contains
some of the most somber and impress
sive scenery in the world. The main
island is ribbed by steep and rugged
mountain range with it's crest in the
clouds and its feet, in the sea Great
glaciers reach from the perpetual
SHOWS upon the highest peaks down to
the misty fiords along the coast, and
all is overhung by gray rainclouds al
most every day in the year. Between
the mountain ridges are deep misty
valleys, while the whole of the interior
is one great plain swept by wet and
chilly winds.
This damp and forbidding aspect of
TERRA del Fuego led almost all trav-
elers to describe it as Il useless and
uninha bitable sort of land. Although
discovered by Magellan in 1920. very
little was known about it until quite
recently, when Argentina and Chile
settled their boundary disputes and
made some tentative efforts to develop
the natural resources of the islands.
