SUPERVISION PARTY LEAVES ON MYSTERIOUS
 ARCTIC QUEST

Wave for trip to Wrangell. Later to establish a base on Wrangell Is- land for Stefansson's future activi- ties, which he said would be explora- tory in character and cover a little known section of the Arctic regions He stated that there was no truth in recent reports that Stefansson was working on some form Of coloniza- tion scheme which included the tablishment of population on Wrangell Island and declared the re- porters must have got things mixed or misunderstood statements made to them.
 Stefansson. Mr. Crawford said. is not working under the Canadian government and the expedition is f. nanced mainly by the explorer him self and a few friends.
 When asked if the island was not considered as a field for valuable mineral OlScONeTleS NIT MduTtI. WHO as stated spent over year there, replied that there is a possibility that the island may contain minerals
 It appears, however, that. despite the reluctance of the party to dis cuss their objective, the main pur- pose is, as stated by MT. Crawford, to prepare the way for further ex- ploration of the Arctic basin.
 On leaving Nome the party was joined by a native woman known as Ada, who was employed in the ca pacity of seamstress. A kitten born recently on the steamer Victoria was also taken along as mascot.
 The paraphenalia taken to the is land included a dog sled, and team and large assortment Of fur cloth ing, all of which was purchased here. Food supplies for one year were taken.

Bound on mysterious expedition which embraces lengthy stay on Wrangell Island, Allan R. Crawford. Fred W. Maurer, E Lorne Knight and Milton Galle, who comprise the advance guard of the new Arctic ex- petition projected by the noted ex- plorer, Vihljalmur Stefansson, left Friday night on the schooner Silver Wave for Wrangell Island and the north Siberian coast. The Silver Wave was chartered for the trip and will return here after depositing the party at its destination.
 Mir Crawford, who halls from Torcnto, Canada, is in charge of the expedition. MT. Knight. whose shdme is at Menenville. Oregon is second in command, and has been previously associated with Stefansson on his earlier Arctic voyages. MT. Maurer was also connected with the last expedition, which resulted in the discovery of new land in the far North and was one of the survivors of the i'll fated Karluk, when that vessel was crushed in the ice east of Herald Island seven years ago, and spent more than year marooned on Wrangell Island awaiting rescue.
 In response to question, Mir. Maurer informed the Nugget that it was just seven years almost to the day when he and his companions were taken from the island where he is now going. He said he thought at that time he would never want to see it again but in the interval has always felt something turing him back to the desolate, ice locked rock. Now, he says. he feels actually glad he is going back in answer to the strange call of the North.
 Asked as to the object of the ex- petition. Mir. Crawford stated at first "along the Siberian coast /" Pressed further. he admitted that the party had chartered the Silver

LONDON. January 15.-The ribbon
craze has reached its height. It has
been rising for q long time. but real
" now London has gone absolutely
ribbon mad. Today everything is
trimmed. adorned. garnished and en-
bellished with ribbon.
It would seem that the ribbon man.
ufacturers have been the first to get
themselves in hand and to find fresh
other materials. silks. satins and vel
vets show almost the same designs
and weaves as we had in 1914, rib
bons are fashioned on entirely new
lines utterly unlike those Of the days
Of lang syne.
The ribbons now coming to US from
France, from the famous manufac-
dering variety in fashion and fasci-
nation.
They come in all widths and de-
signs. Some are very wide. to be
used as sashes to transform plain
gowns into smart ones. They also
show all varieties Of material. satin,
faille, taffetas and velvets. warped or
ored metal threads. There are even
ribbons of crepe and of net printed
with metal designs. Some are made
entirely of gold or silver or steel
frosted over with color.
Not only dresses but millinery is
often made up entirely OF ribbon.
Several narrow widths sewn close
other. form the top Of a broad toque
while twisted together; other ribbons
of various and contrasting coiors
form the brim.

Particularly in the case of oil developments in Mesopotania, under British mandate, the position was taken that there should be equal ity of treatment for the citizens Of all nations in mandate territories
 Secretary Colby did not replyN to the league invitation, preferring to leave the question to the incoming administration and Secretary Hughes In his subsequent communications on the subject of mandates addressed the powers concerned directly and,
