STUDYING ALMIGHTY'S SECRET

On May 14 1921,-a year ago, lacking 23 days,-the Aurora Borealis, or Alaska Lights, was a phenomenon of awe-inspiring magnif- icence.
 Even Edison the Great is mystified by this mysterious force It is electrical, of course, as anyone can see from the swift movement of the gorgeous streamers. We actually hear the cracking of the electrical flood.
 In the marvellous phenomena of nearly a year ago the aurora threw all magnetic in struments on land off balance, stopping the telegraph, telephone and power service. It did not affect the wireless, however. This un- exampled effect extended throughout Western America and far to the South. In Dixie land, the dispatches stated, multitudes of ne groes hailed the celestial spectacle as "de comin' ob de Lawd.''
 Perhaps they were right, in a sense. The best brains in our world are concentrated up- on the problem, which soon may be solved, and harness be devised for using the stupen- dous electronic power.
 Our progress in electrical science is compar- atively at the stage of the first locomotive, or the lightning rod. The most amazing demon stration of progress was that of the bombing tests by naval aircraft several months ago, when the old battleship Iowa, running at full speed off the Virginia Capes, with not a soul on board, was kept under constant radio con- trol. The same power, developed, could steer an airship from the earth to Mars, or Venus, CT hurl a projectile from Alaska across the continent
 Somewhere in Alaska, upon lofty height we should have an astronomical observatory, equipped with a telescope of first magnitude Conditions here favor the best results. Per haps the Great Secret might be solved.
 Considering the wireless bombing tests which were in every way successful:f great warship can be steered at high speed in an arbitrary manner on prearranged course

ALASKA THE PLACE TO DIG

~ CHEMISTS who dig up ancient runs, such as those at Rome, or Pompen ana o Herculaneum, can find mcomparable at- fractions here in Alaska, where the closed Book of Nature awaits openings, perhaps with a wealth of startling knowledge.
 Superficial surveys and discoveries by en- oineers and others have established the fact that this section of the globe formerly was tropical with dense jungle-land, teemng with gigantic monsters By digging down deep enough in the Copper River flats, for example they might find the bones of the ''Wlllopus- wallapus." or a subteTanean ocean ot oil, from the same. Curiosity has led to many wonderful and useful discoveries
 Prehistoric cities might be found, buried deep under the tundra in upheavals of past ages. It is not at all improbable. Tins coul- trv may have been the Garden of Eden. Ouien sabe? Here, it may have been, Adam delved and Eve span, after the Fall, or lived forever happily in sylvan groves and golden gardens.
 It is going to be a garden of Eden In fact, hereafter, with a vast agricultural domain, 1n- cluding the livestock and horticultural ln- dustries. Apples of the finest can be grown in many places in Alaska, for example, and as a land of flowers it surpasses, ln its way, the State of Florida.

and be stopped and started and be made to go fast or slow at will, why cannot we have manless aerial mail service, with swift craft cruising back and forth between stations throughout the continent and the world? Of course, daredevils would be wanting to ride. It it were possible to send an asbestos air ship through the abyss of unauthenticated space to the Miltonic heaven or hell many daring Tanks would volunteer for the ride. The same spirit of adventure and experiment is going to solve the problem of aerial trans portation.

TIP FOR PROsPECTORS

Prospectors who resume activities in Alas ka this summer, especially those who go to the Alaska Peninsula, or the neighborhood of Mount Wrangell, should keep their eyes peeled for the possible discovery of diamonds. It wouldn't be at all surprising to find them. A field like that in Africa may be here. Some lucky prospector might stumble on a "shin- er'' like the Cullinan, which originally weighed 5000 carats, and make the Koh-i-Noor of the British crown look like "chip" in compari- son.
 Black diamonds are interesting us more, however, and already have been found. We haven't had gumption enough yet to devise ways and means of mining them.
 It is no excuse to say that redtape restric- tions prevent development. It is up to us to unite and make war on all handicaps re- moving Instructions of every form. The Alas kan spirit requires a ceaseless onward move ment. Stagnation or delay means ruin.
