the remainder of the personnel of the party he could not say at this time.
 Ten thousand gallons of oil and gasoline is now en route to Point Barrow from Nome, he said, where as during the past months of work there never was more than 100 extra gallons of oil and gasoline available.
 Captain Wilkins looked hale and hearty and with his whiskers shaved off makes a fine appearing young looking man. He is quite enthused over the work thus far accomplished and is very confident of the ultimate success in reaching his objective. He goes back to Detroit with a cordial feeling in his heart for Alaskans and especially the residents of Fairbanks who assisted him in every way they possibly could. "The attitude of AL askans is something I shall never for get" he said. During the last fifteen years he added that at no place had he remained so long as he did at Fair banks for he has been continually on the move.

 P. c. Mullen, Dr. A E. Roberts and Leonard Hopkins were the of1- cial judges of the race. Car E. Orlander, Seward 5eweler and Dr. Roberts were the official timekeep- CTS. Gus Mandhey was the official starter. The race began exactly at 30 seconds past 6 o'clock instead of at $ o'clock owing 10 the non-ap- pearance Of Ohls who was found re- laxing at his hotel. AS usual hun dreds of people were lined up and down the street at the Bank 0f Sew ard corner, the start and finish line.

WILKINS RETURNING T0 FAIRBANKS SOON
 TEST NEW ENGINE
TEN THOUSAND GALLONS OIL AND. GASOLINE NOW EN ROUTE To. BARROW FROM NOME
FAIRBANKS BASE THIS SUMMER
Will Fly to Barrow Where Remain and Continue Exploration over Un- known area

Captain Wilkins, commander of the Detroit Arctic Exploration society, passed thru Seward Sunday en route to Detroit where he will make his official, report on work accomplished thus far. Captain Wilkins stated to the Gateway it was his intention to return to Fairbanks within two months bringing with him a new single engine unit for the Detroiter as the three Wright whirlwind radial motors have been dismantled and are being shipped to the States. Regard ing the Wright motors he said ''they proved their value in many places and functioned satisfactorily but the req son for the change is insufficient power for the range required in the unexpfored area "The new unit will be thoroughly tested out in New York, he said, and upon his return to Fair banks, where the Detroiter, his own personal property, is now housed in the hangar, further test flights will be made and also perhaps, mapping certain portions of that area over the Endicott range. The new unit will be attachable to any plane by the adjustment of four bolts, he add ed.
 T have learned nothing new about Arctic conditions" Captain Wilkins said, land my four years of Arctic experience and fifteen years associat- ed flying has convinced me that air planes will function better in the Arc tic than dirigibles. And early in the spring, the latter part of March and April, are the portions of the entire year, according to compiled records of years standing, suited for long dis tance flying, owing to the absence of fogs which otherwise hover over the ice seas continually throughout the summer months
 However, I learned a great deal about the handling of equipment in low temperatures and at emergency bases. The real Arctic conditions are not nearly as troublesome as lower attitudes south of the Arctic Circle where you get greater humid ity in the atmosphere"
 Captain Wilkins said he never ex- pected to find land directly between Point Barrow and the North Pole but from his observations believes land will be found to the northwest of Bar row and this land will be most likely low lying islands between Barrow and north of Greenland.
 He said the cause of the dense va DOTS and fogs during the summer months was caused from the water being of a higher temperature than the ice which sealed it during the winter and in the spring, when the ice cracked open, this vapor was re- leased.

But the scent was so old by this time that Reddy decided ! il was not worth while to try to fol- low it. Instead. he hurried homo to tell Mrs. Rcddy.
 My dear. my dear, I have the strangest news in the world for you, " said Rcdy Fox to Mrs. Reddy.

 "We have q cousin over in the Green Forest" said Rcddy.

 No" said Reddy. "it isn't. But this is the real news. This cousin of ours climbs trees"
 Mrs. Reddy turned and looked very hard at Reddy. "T don't believe it," she declared. "I don't believe a word of it."
 Its true. just the same" cried Reddy "I don't care whether you be- lieve il or not, it's true. I saw him myself way up in the big hemlock tree"
 Mrs, Reddy sniffed again. That story may go with some folks. but it won't go with me" said she. "I don't know what is the matter with your eyes, but something's wrong with them, You needn't tell me that there is any Fox that climbs trees. Oi course, you and jump up in a tree sometimes. but that isn't climbing
 This fellow was way up high, persisted Reddy. "Bowser the Hound was at the bottom of the tree bark ing at him."

Male mosquitoes are vegctarians The female Of many species of mos Quitoes have developed a taste for blood and blood has become indis- pensable to them for the develop ment of their eggs.
 The mosquito usually lays her esss upon the surface Of the water. The eggs of some species float separate ly. The eggs Of other species adhero and float like q small raft. In day or two, under ordinary conditions, the eggs hatch out into larvae, con- monly known as wiggle-tails.
 The larva Is In reality an aquatic animal but is true air breather. The larva of the malarial mosquito ordinarily rests and feeds at the sur face of the water, it usually lies in an almost horizontal position. its tail touching the filmy surface Of the water.
 The larvae of mosquitoes nov, about more or less In search of food but at intervals Of a minute or two they come to the surface of the wa ter for air.
 The length of time that a nosqui- 10 remains In the larvae stage varies with the species and for each spo- cies varies again with the tempera- ture. The larva after moulting is transformed into curiously shaped creature known as the pupa.
 The pupa remains quietly at tho surface of the water excert when disturbed. It has no mouth and does not feed. The pupa stage lasts for two or three days. at the end 0: which time the adult winged insecs emerges.
 Nine days from the time the eggs are laid, in many cases the winged insect appears. Warmth favors the rapid development of the mosquito. cold retards the growth. Anopheies or malarial mosquitoes rarely bite in the day time. Ano- rheles is shy and easily driven of and will rarely bite you when you are moving about. She is more apt tahite you when you are asleep. Her bite is less painful than that of other mosquitoes and she does not sing SO loudly. On this account when mos quitoes are much complained of they are rarely Anopheles and there can be many Anopheles about without much complaint.
