Stephansson Slowly

Vilhjalmur stefansson, the Arctic
explorer, who was stricken with ty-
phoid fever on the Herschel Islands
early this year, is erecovering slowly,
but will be able to continue the expe-
dition he had undertaken, according to
telegram received by the Explorers
Club here Yesterday. The message,
dated Saturday, was signed by the ex-
plorer himself, and said that he is con-
valescing at the Episcopal HOSPITAL.
Fort Yukon, Alaska. He was taken
there last August.
Stefansson, who started last fall on
an Arctic trip under authorit of the
Canadian government, expected to COM
plete his explorations and make a lee
ture tour of the United States and
Canada, starting in September, for the
beneflt OF the Canadian Red Cross and
other war charities. His message stat
ed that his doctors have advised him
that from three to six months must
elapse before he can undertake any
hard work or serious responsibility
without any grave danger"
The explorers telegram said that he
is established with delightful sur
roundings and competent doctors and
nurses. 1t is an ideal place for rest,
which is now the main thing. There
seems to be no danger of setback, but
recovery is slow. l am the guest of
