Peak, Based on His Earlier Efforts

Trissul (23,40O feet) and Rubenson and
Monrad Aas on Kabru at 23.s00 feet. There
have been other noteworthy high explora-
tions which give us hope, and also point
their particular lessons. Such is Slingsby's
attempt on Kamet. He reached a very great
height under the most adverse conditions.
, "Dr. Kellass innumerable Himalayan ex-
petitions are important as any, and no
one has done better work than he, or knows
more about the effects of high altitude on
the human frame. We have also the climbs
and explorations Of Mrs. Bullock Workman
and her husband.
Two Other Performances Rank
Among Those of Great Importance
1.-TWO other performances are important.
First comes Mr.. Mummerys final attempt
on Manga Parbat by it's west-northwest face.
For forty y-eight hours he and the Gurkha
Ragobir Thapa were engaged in the most
terrific rock climb II is possible to imagine
and finally reached a height of 21,000 feet.
The most desperate gymnastics hour after
hour at this great height were prodigious
exertion.
'"The second example includes two climbs
by Major Todd with Heinrich Fuhrer
Swiss guide and the Gurkha Chandra Sing
on Mewakundini, which is just under 10000
feet which also entailed the very hardest
gymnastics on rock and ice
Is it to be a combined Geographical Society
and Alpine Club party? 1t is.
1.-THE Alpine Club members are to organize
and carry out the actual climbing of the
mountain. The Geographical Society under
takes the scientific side and hopes for the
cooperation of the survey of India.
"As few nights as possible should be spent
at great heights. 1t is much better to come
down as far as possible for good rest and
reascend when fresh than to try and recover
from fatigue by flying up at great height
LET me refer again to the name of Mount
Everest 1t would be a great misfortune If
the present beautiful and suitable name were
ever changed. even though 1t Is actually the
name Of a late and honored surveyor-general
and not native name. 1t is doubtful II the
actual peak has native name at all. Even
II this proposed expedition finds its real
name written clearly on the mountain hope
it will take no notice for no name is so
beautiful and suitable as Mount Everest.

course, be to find the easiest way which

I'm order to make the most of our British
climbers we must have a properly trained
team of porters. The average Himalayan

clothing than the average European under
the same conditions Of clothing.
Properly treated real good men can be
got anywhere. and no better than from
Eastern Nepaland Sikkim, but 1t must be
made worth their while.
Chances the Climber Will Have
OF Actually Reaching the Summit
LET me proceed to examine the chances
the climber will have Of actually reaching
the summit Of the great mountain itself. We
really know very little of Its geography. We
have a distant picture of Its northern ridge,

Broad Peak itself would have been climbed

TRAFFIC SIGNAL TOWERS
TO Be MADE ARTISTIC

NEW YORK, Nov 17.-(A. PD-
Having found Fifth Avenue traffic
signal towers useful, the police depart
ment now has determined to make
them artistic.
The five Unitarian structures, To-
Gated at strategic points along New
York's show thorouehfare will he re-
placed with towers in keeping with the
architectural beauty of the avenue a
design has been selected from a hun
dred submitted by artists competing
for prizes offered by the Fifth Avenue
Association.
The new towers, almost entirely of
bronze will rest on granite bases and
rise 23 feet above the street. The lower
part will be open and the upper part,
enclosed in glass, will give an unob-
structed view up and down the avenue.
Tending blocks on each corner of the
base will fend off traffic and protect
the tower
The traffic police who will occupy
the artistic observation posts have
been much interested in the endeayol
to make the towers as artistic as pos.
sible.

of course everything depends upon

Downey continued. IF the term is
conceived to include merely the train

cannot be taught, because religion is
not merely a matter of the body or

Serious thinkers in every age, however,

It are the issues of life Many seem to
think that religious education pro-
poses a mere process of technical
training, that it leaves out the distinc-
ly divine, ana that its ultimate aim is
simply the development of an ethical
system. Nothing could be further
from the truth. 1t seeks to develop
the good and root out the bad. In
stead Of overlooking or ignoring the
supernatural factor the great aim of
religious education is to keep the child
IN harmony with God from the begin
