TO CLIMB MOUNT EVEREST
British Royal Geos1aphicai Society
Said to Be Contemplating Am.
" bilious Expedition. s

Enormous interest has been aroused
by the announc that the Royal
Geograp society contempt tit-
ting out an expedition to attempt the
ascent of Mount Everest, in the
Himalayas. For not only is this the
highest mountain on the globe but It
is also the worlds mystery mountain.
Although it was discovered 20 years
ago., no European has yet succeeded
in getting anywhere nearer than about
fifty miles to it, much less setting foot
on it's slopes.
This is because 1t so happens that5it
is situated partly in Nepal and partly.
in Tibet, and the governments of both
these countries object, to the presence
of European explorers.
Besides this the Nepal base Of the
giant mountain is in any case prac-
tically unapproa achable, owing to the
dense jungle growth, extending for a
width of 60 or 20 miles all round, and
into whose depths no white man may
venture and live.
The proposal now is to attempt the
ascent from the Tibetan side. This is
doubtless possible, but whether the
summit can be reached or not is an
other matter.
Most experts say not, and point to
the fact that the duke of Abruzzi's
attempt to scale. Mount Goodwin Aus
tin, Everests mighty neighbor, and
the second highest peak in the world,
resulted in failure.
He ascended as far 24,6O0 feet, but
was then obliged to turn back, owing
to the difficulty of breathing, due to
the extreme rarefaction Of the air.
Mount Everest is more than $4,000.

they attach to their homes. All about

Literature Of the czeehs.

Czechic literature has voluminous
and impressive accomplishments to
show Take, for example, Bohemia's
three great writer's Of the nineteenth
century, Dobroysky, Jungmann and
Palacky. Jungmann compiled die
tionary Of the Czech language in five
volumes, Palacky wrote a work. Of 90
600 pages on Czechic history, and Dob
rovsky wrote a grammar OF, Czechic.
The most indefatigable writer, how
ever, was Jaroslav Vrchlicky. He
translated Dante's Divine Comedy, :,
Ariosto's "Orlando Furioso," Calderoti.
Faust" Walt Whitman, as well as
works from French Hebrew, Yiddisfl
and Chinese. No one knows how he
found the time to do it,. Among the
leading Czech writers Of the present,
.Frana Sramek, Toman Kodicek, the
Capek brothers and Theer rank high.

OF MOUNT. VERNON.

is cedar of Lebanon, near the sum-
mer house, believed to have been plant
ed in 1874. 1t is the only exotic tree
On the grounds. The other is a soli-
tary (and symbolic) cherry tree on the
east lawn. Apparently it sprang from
seed from one of Washington's gar
den cherry trees, dropped by bird.
Many trees mentioned by Washing
ton as being planted by him are no
longer to be found there; but of what
he did plant a small forest remains,
remarkable tribute to the painstaking
character of his attention to the es-
tate. 1t is interesting, and not with
out touch of sublimity, to behold
these splendid trees set forth by his
own hand, now casting shadows over
the lawns he trod, their life spanning
the history of the nation.
The bowling green and its circle Of
trees bespeak intimacy. The east and
west lawns are inspirational. The very
shapes of the trees and their varied
shades form ever new vistas, in which
tranquility is the keynote.
Scarcely in the world is there q
shrine to equal this; scarcely could
there be a finer, a more enduring mon
ument, than these symbols of eternity.
these ever living trees, preaching their
everlasting lessons of birth, fruition,
decay and rebirth. It is all so sim
pie, SO artlessly perfect. Not an orna
ment is there, not an obelisk, not a
pile of bronze.
Velvet lawns, quiet shrubs. low
hanging trees, perfumed gardens and
the gentle hum of the summer air
reposeful, purifying-and unwinding
itself between the twin ranges Of hills,
the Potomac and the everlasting enig-
ma of the waters. ,zlf<E
1t is what it is; the home of a gen
tleman who loved not only the world,
but the earth; in it he planted his in
heritance. We share it.

ACTIVE CAMPAIGN BY COTTON
GrowcrS--JOin with Others in Call
ing on Federal Government.

New York, June 1.-American cot
ton growers, manufacturers and af-
llliated interests, at their national
conference yesterday, called upon
the Federal government to aid in
the rehabilitation Of the cotton in
dustry. The government was urged
in resolution
To authorize and grant more lib-
eral expansion Of credits on farm
loans.
TO lower the Federal Reserve
Bank rediscount rate without delay,
to Il figure not in excess nf + per
cent Oh the rediscounts of farm pro-
duets and all commercial paper.
TO instruct the War Finance Cor
poration and Department of Com
merce to render all possible aid in
opening up exports for cotton and
other American raw products, SO as
sumption of such commodities as
rapidly as possible.
Restriction of credits and high
rate Of rediscount charged on farm
loans, the resolution said, had rem
dercd it impossible for farmers 10
plant and cultivate a normal cotton
crop in 1921, and indications were
that the cotton acreage would be
the smallest planted in the past %
years.
'"The cotton growing industry and
the entire agriculture Of the nation, :"
the resolution added, "are suffering
from unspeakablc losses in price val
ues and stagnated markets in Amer
ica, and restricted exports.
Dcilation in farm values, which
was so unexpectedly precipitated up
on the country in August, 1920,
found the cotton growers with their
crops ready for harvest and without
power to protect themselves from
the debacle Of constantly lowering
prices.
"rhc crop was produced at the
peak Of high cost and the growers
found themselves facing bankruptcy
values. From an expectancy Of $2,-
500, 100000 for the cotton crop in
July Of 1920, when cultivation ccas-
ed, the growers Of that crop sustain
ed loss Of 81, 10000, 900 net. part
of which was profit, but represented
a net loss deducted from the actual
cost Of production"
