LAST RESTING PLACE
OF SIR SHACKELTON
Body Be Placed in Rock-Piled Cairn
Among Mounds Marking Other
Explorers.

New ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
chosen by Lady Shackleton as the
last resting place for the body of her
late husband, Sir Ernest Shackleton,
British explorer who died aboard his
tiny craft "Quest" last January 5, is
an icebound, isolated habitation Of
20 persons who cling to the frozen
shores of South Georgia island, call
ed the "Gateway to the Antarctic"
Sir Ernest's body was brought
from the Antarctic to Montevides
following his death and will be ac-
companied by Captain Frank Hussey,
a member Of Shackleton's expedition,
when it starts again on its journey
into the Polar regions.
Lady Shackleton's decision to halt
removal of the body to England Is in
accordance with a lifelong wish of
the explorer that he be laid to rest
amid the scenes where his life work
had been carried on. Only at the
outset of his last voyage, he told
friends he wanted ITO die with his
boots on, like an old sea-dog."
South Georgia Island has figured
several times in Shackleton's career.
He served under Captain R. F. Scott
in 1901 when that intrepid pioneer
Into the icelands of the South made
a dash from that island which result
ed in discovery of the south magnetic
pole.
One hundred miles long, with a
rocky, forbidding coast line SO in
denied that it's width varies from 20
miles to only one half mile, most OF
, it's mountainous interior is covered
with ice and snow throughout the
year. Huge ice cliffs overhang j Is
fjords and bays and great icebergs
breaking off from massive glaciers
make it a dangerous haven for the
occasional wandering whaling ships
which touch it's shores.
The island was discovered in 1875
by Anthony LaRoche. Captain Cook,
in ITS, took. possession in the name
of the British Empire. Until more
] than 100 years later, when it was Wis
tied by a German expedition aboard
the Moeltke, it remained unexplored
but the presence Of herds of seals
and sea lions made it the occasional
rendezvous Of whalers for the first
few years Of this century, until the
animals there became nearly extinct
Ducks, pigeons and Arctic fowl still
are numerous on the island.
It was while drifting with the ice
past the settlement Of Grytviken

Shaekleton suddenly died. His com
rades removed bis body from the
Quest" to a Norwegian whale,
bound for Montevideo and continued
the expedition under the leadership
of sub-commander Frank Wild.
They headed in the direction OF
the "lost" Enderby land, a vague
country just south of South Georgia
Island which was reported discovered
80 years ago, but which no one has
been able to locate since.
S~hackleton's body has been placed
in a plain wooden coffin, made by
the whalers at Grytviken, and herme-
tically sealed with zinc. It will be
placed in, a rock-piled cairn, among
the mounds marking the graves of
other explorers, adventures and
whalers who lost their lives at the

CONGRESS AND THE SHIPPING SUBSIDY.

The ship subsidy bill still remains as one Of the more
important items of unfinished business before congress-
but there is promise of sincere effort to take up and settle
this question without further delay Such pledge ac-
tay has been made to the president by the Republican
leaders in congress- who recently held conference and
decided that the ship subsidy shall be pushed to
definite conclusion before adjournment OF the present
session
The situation both as it ocean transportation
at the present time and the problem of the government
controlled merchant feet certainly calls for prompt ac
ton by congress- The created great merchant mar
inc which seemed to give this country an unequaled OPP
portny to demand henceforth its proper share OF the
world S carrying trade But this great potential asset
was and remains an actual and costly liability Pub
lie interest and economy in national expenditure demand
ed that it be quidated and written off war loss, or
made going ande neutrality-suspicious. ostonby
made going and eventually paying proposition by gett
inc the ships into private hands and letting them tight
for the business with other privately owned merchant
fleets.
Congress put upon the president the duty Of finding
solution Of the problem and in the meantime carrying on
with the fleet That solution the administration believes
it has found in the proposed ship subsidy which will en-
tail less annual expense to the country than the present
operation and maintenance cost Of the government
owned fleet Nevertheless congress, up to the present
time. has refused even to consider it, for no other APP
parent reason than that it may have unoWard political
consequences in some districts. Congress plainly IS 10
duty bound either adopt the remedy devise one OF It's
own or relieve the president and the shipping board OF
thankless and impossible task.

Jiggs and Maggie at the Peary Gate,

Jiggs and Maggie, of cartoon
fame, have made application to en-
ter the golden gates, which moves
an oklahoma poet to write the fol-
lowing effusion:
Saint Peter stood guard at the
golden gate, with a solemn mien
and air sedate, when up to the top
Of the golden stair Maggie and Jiggs

sion, They came and stood before
st. Peter, so great and good, in hope
the city of peace to win, and asked
st. Peter to let them in Maggie

scraggy beardlet on her chin; Jiggs
was short and thick and stout, and
his stomach was built so 1t rounded
out. His face was pleasant and all
the while he wore a kindly and
pleasant smile. The choir in the
distance the echoes woke, and Jiggs
kept still while Maggie spoke
ooh thou who guardest the gate
said she. I'VE two come hither be-
seeching thee to let us enter the
heavenly land, and play our harps
with the angel band. OF me, st.
Peter, there is no doubt, there's
nothing from heaven to bar me out.

Times Have Changed.

Once on time men and women
found their treasurers within. They
were able to dignity and ennoble all
human activities. They found dish
washing and ditch digging worth
while because their own character
left its impress upon their humble
duties. Bingham dresses and plain
food did not seem a hardship be-
cause they were living for some
thing that is more than food and
raiment. Home, with its unity and
its opportunity for common assocla-
tion in noble enterprise, compensat-
ed for anything which the world did
not see fit to give. Poverty could
not deprive them Of eompanionship
with holy things, or shut them
away from comradship with Shakes
peare and Lincoln. They read THE
Pilgrims Progress and knew
something of the destiny of the hui
man soul. Now children grow up

elders that Jones' auto is costiier
