"RoOSEVELT LAND" IN ARCTIC
New Polar Discoveries Made by Bart
lett to Be Named for For
mer President.

New York.-The expedition which
Capt. Robert A. Bartlett will lead next
June to make an aerial survey of the
North pole will be known as the Roose-
welt memorial expedition, according to
an announcement by the Aero Club of
America, which is financing the trip.
Any land discovered will be named
Roosevelt land"
officials of the club explained it was
fitting that this tribute should be paid
the former president, as it was he who
gave Rear Admiral Peary leave of alb
sence to head the expedition which dis
covered the pole, and Captain Bartlett
commanded Peary's ship, the Roose-
welt.
Club officials also emphasized the
fact that Colonel Roosevelt had been
one of the first patrons of aero
nautics."

People who have impure or impover.
ished blood should be careful to take
only temperance remedy made of wild

Golden Medical Discovery 10 and has
been for nearly so years. Ingredients
printed on wrapper.
The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accumulation begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through
the eliminative organs.
In place of the impurities, the ar
tcries and veins gradually get fresh
vitalized blood and the action of this
good blood on the skin means that pin-
pies, boils, carbuncles, eczema, rash,
acne and all skin blcmishes will disap-
pear. Then you must remember that
when the blood is right. the liver, stom-
ach. bowels and kidneys become healthy,
active and vigorous and you will have
no more trouble with Indigestion, back
ache. headache.

The dismantling of Helgoland, in nc
cordance with the decision reached by
the supreme war council at Paris,
marks the passing of the greatest fort
ress in the North sea and the final
elimination of Germany as a contender
for sea power.
Since 1890 when Great Britain
ceded this square mile of crumbling
mari and sandstone cliffs to Germany
for the protectorate of Zanzibar and
With, the Germans have spent more
than S5,o00,000 year in fortifylng it.
Available records show that Helgo-
land had a circumference of 40 miles
in the year 800. but had crumbled
away at the rate of 100 square miles
every century. until the Germans began
to dream of wesld conquest. Large
buttresses of granite were put up to
protect the cliffs. Riffs and crevices
were filed with ferro concrete. Break
waters were constructed and naval
harbor built and II and 16-inch Krupp
guns were installed in steel and con-
crete classmates and sunken battery
positions.
The island was pierced with tun-

mel through Which ammunition and
other stores could be safely taken dur
ing a bombardment. During the war
sufficient stores and munitions were
maintained to withstand three
years siege by its garrison of 200
men.
The North sea for radius of more
than twenty-five miles was mapped in
squares, each gun having its square or
squares upon which it could be trained
instantly should hostile ship enter
that little space of sea.
During the war Helgoland was fur
ther protected by wide mine fields
stretching toward the possible ap-
p. oaches of Brltain's grand fleet.
Behind these sea barriers, of which
Helgoland YVES the center, Germany
maintained naval, submarine, Zeppelin
and airplane bases for the four years
of the war.
By the dismantllng of Helgoland
and the internationalization of the
Kiel canal the German North sea ports
snd those of the nations bordering on
the Baltic Will be opened to the un-e
stricted commerce OF the world.

Pershing FulfilIs
Hope of Ancestor

Greensburg, Pa.-Gen. John ].
Pershing fulfilled the wish of an
ancestor that a member of the
Pershing family should save AL
sace-Lorraine when he led the
victorious American armies
against the Germans. This fact
is disclosed by Rev. Justus n.
Pershing. cousin of General
Pershing. who has made public
a letter written In Alsace-Lor-
raine more than 200 years ago
by Frederick Pershing, General
Pershing's great-great-grandfa-
ther. In this letter the generals
ancestor expressed the hope
that his son. Frederick Per-
shing. Jr., or his descendants,
''would come back some day and
redeem the fair lands of Alsace-
Lorraine from oppression"
According to the letter. the
Pershings lived in the village of
kehe in Alsace-Lorraine in 1774
and fought under Emperor
Charles against the Magyars.
Soon after that. when law was
passed that air able-bodied men
between the ages of sixteen and
fifty must join the landwehr to
protect their country from raw
ages by the Austrians, Frederick
Pershlng, Sr., sent his son to
America. Frederick Pershing,
Jr., reached this country in
1749 and, after marrying Miss
Wyant in Baltimore, settled in
Westmoreland county, Pennsyl-
vania. where General Pershing's
grandparents were born.
