said tonight he did not expect them
to arrive until tomorrow.
Macleod said eleven days. the time
consumed by his party in covering
the distance along the Missinabi from
Moose Factory, was a record. IL
usually takes two weeks to make the
trip.
Lieutenant Farrell, Macleod said,
was being brought back on sled es-
peciaily fitted for the purpose. he
suffered more from exposure than MS
companions and was too weak TO
'.nush" with the others.
Newspapermen who gave up hope
that the party would arrive at Coeh-
rane over the Abitibi river trail ar
rived here early today. None of the
scouts sent out by them had returned
tonight.
Official documents from Washing
ton for the naval aeronauts are in
care of a member of the Royal Can
adian Mounted Police who was order
ed to wait at this point.
Factor Mavor, of the Hudson Bay
Company, said tonight that Oliver
Marks the Indian guide leading the
Americans out Of the wilderness. is
capable man and owns some of the
finest and fastest malamutes in this
country
The Missinabi trail, Macleod de-
clared, was open in many places and
the party would be compelled to make
numerous detours. He said he was
certain this trail would be followed
| because the Indians would be ordered
to do so before they left Moose Fac
tory. They would make their last
camp at Skunk Island, twenty miles
out, he said.
Milder weather prevailed in this
vicinity today, the temperature rising
to ten degrees above zero.

waited. They waited matter of
some 20 minutes when upon in

PASTOR SEEKS TO
MAKEFOX HONEST
Toronto Man Expects to Reform
Animals Known as "Sneaks
of Woods"

PORT ARTHUR, Ont, Jan. , 81
The Rev. George Clark, man of God,
whose work for years has been to
save mems souls. is now endeavoring
to make the sly and crafty fox, sneak
of the woods, an honest animal.
As he moulded manhood into the
character OF men this preacher is now
shaping the morals, and, at the same
time the glossy fur of Bre'r Fox, on
his fox ranch in the wooded high
lands of ontario.
In the process of evolution stage
has been reached which makes II pos
sible to determine the markings of
offspring from foxes of assorted
types. When tastes for furs run to
black, with a touch of silver, as Is
the mode today, 1t is possible to Oh
tain the desired sprinkling of gray.
Length and quality of fur are like
wise determined in advance. or
course, there's money in II, but an
other satisfaction Is that by judicious
choice and breeding the nervous,
tricky disposition is being trans
formed and in a few years the fox.
DR.. Clark believes, will be an honest
minded animal, with the temper OF a
dove.

LAS sharp-headed business men,

to them.
