A HOUSE AT THE POLE

Nansens plans for his next polar expedition, to
start in the spring of 1927 have two unusual elements
of interest. He will fly to the Pole, it, in
dirigibe bigger than the Los Angeles, and he will build
house when he arrives there shelter the exploring
party for year. Va #l /"
1t is agreed by recent polar explorers that the
dirigbe balloon is the best type for polar regions.
Apparently such ship will less risk IN the Arctic
than land in this latitude. 1t will carry
big load and therefore should enable the explorers to
utilize better equipment than any previous party has
had. If the airshp makes the initial trip safely, it
may go again, serving a supply ship.
The possibility of house built at the North Pole
is something to catch the imagination of the world.

plies and equipment, whether solid land the

LESS CHILD LABOR PROGRESS

This vindcates those advocates of a national child
labor law who maintained that only fear of federal
action would spur certain sections of the country to
protect their children from unwholesome employment.
1t apparently refutes the opponents of the federal
child labor amendment who announced emphati-
cally that safe action would be sufficient.
State action will be sufficient only when a sound

BETTER BILLBOARDS

"Unsightly signboards fast being replaced by
works Of art along public highways" says a leading
billboard man. He recognizes that this improvement
IS the result Of widespread efforts to landscapes
from dissertation and gives credit to advertising
cles and newspapers that have demanded reform
Good as far as it goes But the present ideal of
the billboard industry is evidently Bigger, Better Bill
boards, and More of Them!
That fact dam.pens somewhat the natural outburst
of public approval for the gain referred to- Artistic
billbOards less Objectionable than ugly ones But
there broader considerations than the mere artistic
quality of the ad painted any particular billboard
There remains the question whether beautiful land
scapes should be cuttered with any kind of bill
boards Observation-Disclosures advertisers have any right
to mess up natural outdoor beauty with commercial
appeals that can be handled without offense and with
less profit through the regular channels of printed
advertising. t,..t Az stNifF
Billboards would be natural and defensble
means of advertising in country of literates
that required gaudy pictures to convey ideas to the eye
In civilization where everybody reads newspapers
and magazines, they should be superfluous as the
