Which Wayf

(Which way, WIFI" asked Meri-
wether Lewis. (which is the river?
II we miss many guesses, the British
will beat us through. Which is our
river here?"
They stood at the junction of the
Yellowstone with the Missouri, and
faced one of the first Of their great
problems. 1t was spring once more.
The geese were flying northward
again; the grass was green. Three
weeks ago the ice had run clear, and
they had left their winter quarters
among the Mandans.
Five months they had spent at the
Mandan village; for five months they
had labored to reach that place; for
five months or more they had lain at
st. Louis. Time was passing. AS
Meriwether Lewis said, few wrong
guesses could be afforded.
Early in April the great barge,
manned by ten men: had set out down
stream, carrying with 1t the proof of
the success of the expedition 1t
bore many new things, precious
things, things unknown to civiliza-
ton. Among these were sixty speci-
mems of plants. as many of minerals
examples of their clothing, speci-
mems of the corn and other vegetables
which they raised, horns of the big
horn and the antelope-both animals
then new to science-antlerS of the
deer and elk, stuffed specimens, dried
skins. herbs, fruits, flowers. and with
all these the broken story of a new
geography-theg greatest story ever
sent out for publication by any man
or men-and all done in Honeric SIM
pIicity.
AS the great basse had started
down the river, the two pirogues
which had come SO far, Joined by the
cottonwood dugouts laboriously fab
ricated during the winter months.
had started up the river, manned by
thirty-one men.
With the pick of the original party,
there had come but one woman the
girl Sacajawea, with her little baby,
born that winter at the Mandan
fortress. Sacajawea now had her
place In the camp; she and her in
FAINT were the pets of all She sat in
the sunlight, her baby In her lap, by
her side an Indian dog. waif which
Lewis had found abandoned in an In
dian encampment and which had at
tached Itself to him. -
Sacajawea smiled as the tall form
OF the captain came toward her. She
had already learned some of the
words Of his tongue, he some of hers.
(Which way, Saoajawea?". asked
Meriwether Lewis. What river is
this which goes on to the left?"
...H hin Ro,sh h, e., replied that the girl;
Rim-big river" And she pointed
toward the right-hand stream.
"As I thought, WILL" said Lewis.
nodding, and again, to the Indian
girl: "Do you remember this placer
She nodded her head vigorously
and smiled.
"See!"
With a pointed stick she began to
sketch a map on the sand of the
river bar. showing how the Yellow
stone flowed from the south-how,
far on ahead. its upper course bent
not moro than q dag. between the two.

ton Clause Requires Action
Before January I

A final warning that all former

ton of service origin or aggreva-
ton for tuberculosis reported before
the first of next january and in

made presumption that can be re-
butted only by clear and con-

statement appealing to. all vet
Grams to assist in rounding up
disabled men for report before it

Every man who wore the uni
form should notify any victim of
the above mentioned disabilities of

thus bringing justice to the dis
ahled man, helping his dependents

EMPLOYMENT IS
PLENTIFUL
IN D. c.
Clerical and Sales Lines Are
Only Ones in Slow Demand,
Says U. s. Bureau

The only unemployment existing
in washington during the month OF
November was in the clerical and
sales lines, according to the monthly
Industrial employment bulletin Of
the United States. Employment
Service, Department of Labor, is
sued today.
Skilled and unskilled labor In the
District is reported as very well
employed, with only small sur
plus Of common labor apparent"
The report shows that the demand
for hotel workers and domestic
servants continues in Washington,
though the demand in November
was slightly below that in October.
Resident building tradesmen are
fairly well engaged on projects that
are being completed" the report
states. Work on an eight-story
store and office building, to cost
1926 900, was started this month"
In Maryland small amount OF
unemployment was reported in the
larger cities, owing to seasonal cur
tailment of such work as road con-
struction. Industrial activity, how
ever, Increased in Maryland, with
corresponding increase in the
number of employees.
Practically the same conditions
exist in Virginia as are found in
Maryland, according to the report.
