ExPL 0RER'S LOT A HARD ONE
Matter Of Hard and Excessive Labor
10 That Of Mapping Out q
New Country.

Hard and incessant labor Is the iot
Of an explorer who travels through an
unknown country, as II shown by the
example of William Junker, a Russian
explorer, who spent i've years in en-.
deavoring to trace the course Of the
River Welle. which lies between the
headwaters Of the Nile and the Congo,
in Africa, with q view to determining
the position Of its watershed. During
that time he Travelled on foot over
1000 miles through a wild country.
When he was actually on the march
DR.. Junker wore a coat designed by
himself, having numerous large pock'
cts especially arranged for the handy
use Of his watch, compass, aneroid,
thermometer and notebooks From
one Of the buttons of his coat hung
three pencils, one red, for marking the
route: one blue. for noting the rivers
and streams; and the third black, for
recording the time Of starting and
haltfng $50 as to keep record of the
marching time and distance), together
with all the more notable incidents Of

Every five minutes DR.. Junker made
a note of the direction he Travelled, a.

mountain, every valley, and their esti.

Peace Delegates DisiIIusioned

> Paul Scott Mowrer, one OF the
: best known Paris correspondents
for the American press, finds that
members of our peace delegation
have had a great deal of their
faith and hope shaken by their re-
cent experiences and that they are
disillusioned as to the possibility
of applying liberal principles to
the world in its present condition.
+ Mowrer declares that the axioms
of international politics which
have made the deepest impression
on our representatives are the
following:
> 1.-No nation will voluntarily
act against what it considers its
= own best interests.
, I'm affairs of states material
interests will take precedence
, over mora, Interests although the .
latter are not negligible.
, ,3.-The rights of small or weak
nations are only such as large and
powerful nations may accord
them.
4.-No powerful nation is at =
present willing to cede the least
, jot Of its full sovereignty.
5.-Therefore, no league Of na-
, tions with supra-national author
ity 10 now possible.
Gin the present state Of civil .
i1ation no nation can afford to en-.
trust its safety to the good will of
others. II strong, 1t must show
readiness to defend ITSELF; II weak
It must seek strong protectors.
7.-Changes in the present rela-
tions between the nations can
: come about only slowly and AZ Z
natural growth.
The people Of all the allied ma
tions with the possible exception
tion of Italy thought they we're
fighting to destroy these tooth and
claw principles. II they were not
destroyed, then more than half of
the peace representatives played
false to their peoples.
