EXPLORES FAIL To
find CROKER LAND
NAVAL OFFICER RETURNS Az
TER THREE YEARS IN FAR
NORTH REGION.

New York, Sept. 12.-Ensign Fitz-
hugh Green, United States navy, who
has passed the last three years in the
Arctic regions with the Donald b..
Mcmillan expedition in a vain eff
fort to find "Crocker Land" return
ed to this country last week.
He repeated the statement made
by many other members of the expe-
dition since they returned to civili-
zation-that Croker Land was a
myth. The entire region spoken of
by Peary was explored and no such
land as described by the admiral
was found. The region was full of
mirages, which at first deceived per-
sons into thinking land was close by,
but disappeared upon investigation.
be said
Ensign Green said that the head
of the expedition, Donald B. MacMil-
Ian, would arrive in this country in
short time and publish a full re-
sumo of the voyage.
While the primary object of the
expedition-the discovery of Cocker
Land-failed, the voyagers gathered
considerable new scientific data. The
expedition was sent out in July, 1913,
under the joint auspices of the Amer
lean Museum of Natural History, the
American Geographical Society and
the University of Illinois. 1t was
formed because of Peary's statement
that he had seen a field of mountains
through his glasses from Cape Thorn
as Hubbard in July 1906.
The expeditions steamship, the
DIANA, ran aground in the Straits of
Belle Isle, July IT, 1913, and the
party was transferred to the sealer
Erick. A station was established
at Etah and a party of the expedition
went on to Flagler Sound from which
they commenced the search for
Croker Land in February, 1914.
In June, 1915, failure to hear
from the expedition caused its back
ers to send out the relief ship George
3. Cluett. The ship met bad ice con-
ditions and was forced to put in at
North Star Bay. The relief party
proceeded further north in a motor
launch placed at its disposal by Knud
Rasmussen, the Danish explorer.
At Etah the expedition was found
suffering from want of food. En-
sign Green made a perilous journey
by sledge to Southern Greenland.
On August % of this year he noti-
fed the Navy Department of his safe
arrival at Copenhagen.
Green had declined to give up the
search for the elusive Croker Land,
even in the face of starvation. He
worked under the most unfavorable
conditions for a long time before he
was convinced that the effort was in
vain.

PEOPLE.

/ am sorry for them all
Whose ceaseless footsteps rise and
and fall
Along earth's highway endlessly,
The people in the world with me;
Who have dreams, and yet must take
The gifts life has for men awake,
Who build their lives each day anew
On hopes they know shall not come
true,
Who walk the world till sleep, and
then
At dawn must walk the world again,
Who ask Gods favor, knowing still
He does not break his changeless will
For any faulty changing cry
OF men he makes to live and die.
| am sorry for them all.
So sorry! Until / recall
How life's adventure swings afar
Above tomorrow like star,
And how our dreams paint golden
bright
Gray working-day and resting night,
And all the love each man who lives
May buy for merely love he gives
And how it comforts us to pray
Whether God hears or turns away,
And how to work. and sleep. and
wake
Is good for the mere going's sake;
Till. whether life seems gay or sad,
/ am so glad for men--so glad!

ROCKFORD CAMP FIRE GIRLS

Rockport, Ky.-On Tuesday night,
August 29th the Choctaw Camp of
Camp Fire Girls held a public Coun-
Gil Fire in the vacant lot back of

their ceremonial costumes came in
to view in Indian fashion and form
ed a semi-circle around the fire, in
front of which stood their guardian,
Wasi-I-Yo-Mina. After the regular
candle lighting ceremony the moth
ers were welcomed to the fire by a
short poem and the singing of Wo-
hello. The ceremonial names were
used in the roll call after which the
assistant guardian, Lexse, read the
Count of an all day picnic given by
the Camp Fire Girls at Airdrie on
Aug. 18th. Honor beads of the
seven crafts were awarded, being i'm

given by the guardian. The meeting
was closed by the Boo-ga man Song
during which the girls followed the
advice of the song. pretty little

three candles of Work, Health, and

remained was the dieing embers of

TUsKEGEE's WORTHY APPEAL.
Principal Motions Effort to Spread
Christmas Cheer Among Children.

Principal Meton's Effort to Spread
Christmas Cheer Among Children.
The following letter Of appeal, issued
from the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute by
DR.. Robert r. Motion, principal, is q
worthy one, to which, it is hoped, many
will respond literally. DR.. Motion says:
1.-THE late DR.. Booker T. Washington,
founder of the Tuskegee institute, year
by year appealed to generous friends
for Christmas remembrance of one
kind and another to be distributed
through him to the colored children of
the south, who without such Christ
mas remembrances would have moth
ing to remind them Of the Christmas
season.
Floods, the boil weevil and indus
trial conditions generally among the
farming classes have brought about a
rather depressing state Of affairs. Many
people are in actual distress and want,
while in hundreds and thousands of
homes there will be little to indicate
that Christmas Is time OF Joy and
blessing. Anything whatsoever, no
matter how inexpensive, will brighten
q situation otherwise largely unrelieved
by any cheering ray.
II shall be glad to serve as did DR..
Washington-that is, to act as the in
termediary through whom the public
may transmit their gifts to these chill.
