 In 1897 Prof. Parker sketched the first map ever made covering the country north of the c. P. R., Tn which district he did considerable mountaineering. He has to his credit in that country, the successful con quests of Mt. Goodsir, near Dawson, B. C., and mountains Hungabee, Del toform, Riddle and Lefroy in Alberta, He also climbed Mt. Olympus, in
 
 Washington state in 1907.
 Prof. Parker, it will be remember od, won world wide fame by being the man heading the first party to reach the highest point of NJ. Me Hirley. This he accomplished only after three different expeditions, fin- ally reaching the highest of the sev- eral peaks in 1912. He was with Dr, Cook earlier; but after Dr. Cooks false claim to have reached the top of Mt. Mckinley, Parker's association with the doctor were severed.

Hershel C. Parker, former proteS- sor of Physics at Columbia Univers- ity, inventor, scientific writer, con sulting engineer, and explorer of mountains in Washington, British Col umbia and Alaska left this morning on the train for Mile 40 enroute to the Yentna district, to act as con sulting engineer in testing mining claims for himself and certain New York owners.
 Inventor of HelioscOpe
 Professor Parker is a physicist by vocation. "Mountain climbing" as- sured the professor, "is not exactly a lucrative occupation. If one could give assurance that there was a moth CT lode of mineral on the top of a certain mountain, he could get an abundance of funds for an expedition; but the mere idea of climbing is an entirely different matter"
 In his spare moments he invents, Among his recent accomplishments in this line is the helioscope. This is a device used in submarines for looking under the water, He has offered this patent to the U. S. government, with the provision of retaining certain commercial phases of it.
 The government is now making use of one of Prof. Parker's previous ideas. This is the so-called "motor destroyers," type of under-sea speed

Blacksburg. Va, July S.--As let
tiers have been received recently, ask
ing whether the Virginia Polytechnic
institute will Do open next session
President Eggleston has deemed II
wise to make q statement on the sub

THE first term OF the session 1917

departments Of the college will be
open as usual. Every member OF the
faculty will be in his place and in
dications are now that the attend
ance OF new students will not fall be-
low that of last year
"As many Of tho old men are now
at instruction camps, or have already
gotten commissions in the army. it
is likely there Will be a falling of
in the number Of those who can re-
turn. The authorities have never for
a moment entertained the idea Of
suspending the work Of the school be-
cause OF war conditions: in fact 1t
is essential just now that the agri-

colleges continue along the lines as
heretofore, and broaden the scope of
their work whenever posi- BILE. Since

foolish to close it's doors now, and
would be an Injustice to the young

on this subject President Eggleston
said:

who are called by their country to 20

Preparation for life is as vital as

their utmost endeavors to send their

1T has seemed necessary for a
