AND BAR
JOIN IN SHAD
BAKE
District Supreme Court Takes
Day off for Outing at
Marshall Hall.

The District Supreme Court today
took a. vacation with the departure
of the bar and bench for Marshall
Hall to celebrate the annual shad
bake.
The steamer Manchester made two
trips to the resort, each time carry
ing a full consignment of judges and
lawyers. The committee in charge
of the outing provided for all sorts
of sports and games, the most eX-
citing being a baseball game between
opposing factions of the bar associa-
ton. The committee hopes to be
able to persuade one of it's members
to fill the hazardous position of UNI
pire.
There will be a number of sparring
matches, which have been arranged
to settle scores of long standing
Three-legged races will be run, and
it was expected to also have a fat
mans foot race, but the lean and
Iank element is preponderatingly in
the majority among the legal fra
ternity, the well-fed and fat ones be-
ing rare exception.
After all, the planked shad dinner
is the real cause of the pilgrimage,
combined with an idea of bringing
into closer contact the members of
the bar and bench.

empire, rich lin mineral resources
and with al salubiious, heaIthful
climate, hes in the Arctic, ready to
be peopled. declared Vilhjalmar
Stefansson, explorer, who arrived
here today to attempt to persuade
the British empire to develop its
territory in the Far North.
Stefansson has long been IN the
employ of the Canadian government
as explorer and pathfinder.
The "undreamed empire of to-
morrow lies in the Arctic said
Stefansson. ANY white man can
live in comfort in 80 per cent of
the territory. The Arctic regions
are not desolate and frigid. but
highly habitable. It is a healthy
place, and would be an incalcuIable
asset to the British empire"
Stefansson wants Great Britain to
assist Canada in obtaining posses
sion of Wrangell Island Because
of the geographical position of this
island, off the Alaskan coast. it has
been considered American soil.
The explorer pointed out that the
rich deposits OF coal. iron, and gold
In Alaska are indicative of the
wealth throughout the Far North
1t is possible that oil may be
found in some places.
