They stoid a minute while I frantic

trotted off about twenty feet and
whirled and stood looking at us,

Dr. J. Wade Chambliss today called
attention to an apparent lessening of
cooperation among residents in cer-
tain sections of Americas regarding
the mosquito elimination campaign.
This attitude, DR.. Chambliss saws, is
regretted by the health authorities,
who may be compelled to adopt harsh
measures unless there comes an early
reversal and more strict compliance
with recommendation of the SAM

There were plenty of polar bears

But while they waited for sufficient
snow to enable them to transport
their polar bear meat to camp the
greater part of 1t was eaten by foxes
and bears. Thus by November 16
after only two months stay on the
island, they ran entirely out of meat
and We're forced to share the pro-
visions which they had brought from
outside with the dogs. The winter

that they would be able to get

through until spring without much
hardship But when spring came they
found that most of their food had
gone, About all that was left of the
supplies brought with them from
Nome was a certain amount of pilot
bread.
They were able, however, 10 get
more seals in the spring and couple
of walrus that happened to come
close enough to the shore for them to
secure the carcasses. These with
crowbills and other birds, foxes and
an occasional polar bear, together
with the remnant of the pilot bread
kept them going until the middle of
the summer when they began to look
forward to the arrival of the prom
ised relief ship. Knight and Craw-
ford made number of exploring
trips to various parts of the island
during the year and all did their ut
most to employ their time as profit
ably as possible and to keep up the
morale of the party
But the summer passed and
autumn came, there were times when

hugged the land and it was realized
that any attempt to get through at
such times must result in failure. It
was not until the season was we'll ad-
vanced. however. that hope of succor
was entirely abandoned.
Then 1t was realized that a second
winter must be passed on Wrangel
Island. The first had been AN inter-
esting adventure. The hardship had
not been particularly great and all
would have been speedily forgotten
had relief come when expected. An
other winter under less favorable CIR
cumstances was an entirely different
matter. but there was no alternative.
They laid in what meat they could
and husbanded their resources as
much as possible. On November 15,
1922. they moved theeir camp to
Doubtful Harbor where there. was a
plentiful supply of driftwood and
they would thus not need to use their
fat for fuel. But as the winter drag
ged on it's weary length the food sup
ply got less and less and they saw
that it was not sufficient until spring.

Furthermore lack of sufficient food
of the proper kind was having its ef-
