MACMILLAN ID LEAD EXPLORATION PARTY
 IN sUbARCT|C AREAS
SCIENTISTS OF FIELD MUSEUM FINANCED BY F. H. RAWSON
 A CHICAGO BANKER
STUDY OF MORSE RUINS
 IN LABRADOR PLANNED
No Sailors Will Be Aboard the Bow din-Schooner Yacht Wili
 Follow the Leader

Chicago, May 12. P)-Nine scien- lists, led by Commander Donald Mac Milan. American arctic explorer, will tourney to the frozen north this sum- mer to collect for the Field Museum of Natural History here specimens of animal and plant life in the sub-arctic region.
 The expedition, financed by Fred erick H. Rawson, ST., Chicago banker, will also study the record of man in Labrador and in Baffinland, paus1ng in Labrador. South Greenland and Baf- finland to uncover, if it can, evidences of Morse habitation during the tenth | century, and in Baffinland to gather specimens of Eskimo civilization. Announcement of the venture made today by D. c. Davies, director or the Field museum, named the voyage as the MacMillan-Rawson subarctic ex- pedition of the Field museum. The brave little schooner Bowdoin, hero of three preyious arctic dashes and own ed by Capt. MacMillan, will carry the research party from Wiscassett, Me, about June 19, northward to Sydney N. S.. and thence to Battle Harbor, Labrador, and as far north as the isl and of Disko, above the arctic circle, off the west coast of Greenland.
 All the territory along the itiner- ary of the 90-foot craft will yield spec imens of geological, geological anthro- biological and botanical value to the museum, now lacking in exhibits of subarctic life Every member of the party will be an expert on research of the sort for which the expedition is sponsored. Alfred c. Weed, assistant curator of fishes, and Ashley Hine bird taxidermist and collector, vii represent the museum directly, while Dr. Walker Koelz, of the Federal fish cries bureau, ichthyologiyst, and
 
 number of other outside scientists vii he members of the party under com mission of the museum. Among thes' will be an ornithologist, botanist ant a geologist, named by Stanley field O the museum. All will make the Bow doin their base, going ashore for spe cimens.
 The phase of the reasearch, whic will delve into evidence of early Nors discovery of the North American COT tinent, will be pressed in arctic lands where Eskimo mythology tells of hardy race which visited the Mort thousand years ago and explore the coast of North America 300 year before Columbus.
 Comparison of findings in Labradt will be made with Morse ruins Greenland. in an effort to ascertai whether Norsemen may have pen trated to the North American coa line.
 The wide variation of customs Eskimo life make the possibiliti great, museum officials say, for a dition of important exhibits from B. finland to the museums collection information and specimens of Eskir life and culture.

Iashamed to have any one else see
 him caught by clam.
 But half way to the bath-house
 Jimmy remembered something. He
 remembered that more than once he had seen Growing the Herring Gull
 eating clans. He had seen GreywinR carry those clans up in the air and
 drop them on rocks, so as to break
 the shell.
 i "I wish I had wings" said Jim
 my. If I had wings I'd fly up and drop it." Then Jimmy Skunk began i to laugh at himself, He suddenly
 remembered that he couldn't drop lthe clam. He was just as well off
 without wings as he would have been with wings.
 l But this had put a new idea into
 Jimmy's head. Perhaps he could break that shell on a rock. Anyway, perhaps by pounding it on a rock he could make the clam let go. He
 would try it. Jimmy looked around. There were no rocks handy. He
 would have to go long way to get to any rocks. But there was nothing else he could think of to do. So he started for the nearest rocks.
 His whole foot ached by the time he got there. He didn't waste any time. He lifted his foot with the clam and brought it down hard on a rock. "Ouch!" cried Jimmy. Then he looked at the clam. Mir. Clam was
 still on the job. There was no crack in that shell. Jimmy began to real ize how very hard that shell was. He tried 1t again. The result was the same. He tried it several times. He couldn't pound that shell hard enough to break it. Poor Jimmy! There were tears in his eyes. What ever should he do? It was a long way back to the bath-house and it didn't seem to him that he could ever, ever walk that far with that i clam on his foot.
 Now, there were little pools of l water in among those rocks. and ! finally Jimmy put that aching foot with the clam on it in the water. Hc hought 1t might take some of tho lche out. He held il there for a feW Then he decided that h. would have 10 try 10 get back to his lome. He lifted his foot from the water and then he nearly tumbled ,ver in surprise. The clam was no onger on that toe. He looked down n the water. There il lay. You see, .. lis toe had been so pinched that it vas numb and he hadn't known rhen the clam let go. These clans. " the way, are not commonly found bove the low watcr-mark. Probably ome man who had been getting lams dropped this one where Jim ly~found it. But 10 this day Jimmy kunk has the greatest respect for lams,

And had 1t been fully grown. it wouldn't have been called clam at all but Qua haug. It was well for Jimmy that il wasn't fully grown.
 Somehow Jimmy had lost his ap- petite. He no longer felt hungry. The only feeling he had was de- sire 10 get rid Of that clam on his toe.

Menus for the Family
BY SISTER MARY

| Breakfast-Stewed prunes, cereal,
 thin cream, crisp broiled bacon, toast marmalade milk, coffee. Luneheon-Lima beans in tomato sauce, whole wheat bread, floating island with red raspberries, milk, tea.
 Dinner-Cold sliced roast beef, spiced currant jelly rice croquettes kohl rabi in cream sauce, fruit salad, cheese sticks, graham bread, milk, coffee.
 The dinner menu planned is worth keeping in mind if you like to serve porch or garden meals. The cold sliced meat with it's accompanying jelly, croquette and vegetable makes an attractive mixed grill" or one plate dinner. And the salad does double duty as salad and desert both. This means only two plates and but one change in serving.
 Lima Beans in Tomato Sauce
 One pint lima beans, 3 tomatoes, 9 small onions, 1 sweet green pepper lapleSPoohs putteF E teaspoon salt, pepper.
 Cook beans in boiling water to cover until tender. Add salt the last 15 minutes of cooking. Let water cook away as much as possible with out burning. In the meantime. peel tomatoes and cut in small pieces. Put into smooth sauce pan and add onions peeled and chopped and pepper freed from seeds and the white pith and cut in fine shreds. Cook over low fire until pepper is tender, almost 30 minutes. Add but ter and salt and pepper. Reheat beans in this mixture if necessary and serve at once. Copyright, 1926, NEA Service Incl

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY HUGH s. CUMMING

4ACNt1A -L M All4NAT Surgeon General, United State: Public Health Service
 It has been recognized that vari- ous emotions are accompanied by special facial expressions. It is now known that certain kinds of feeling especially the happy kind, help the proper functioning Of the organs, while others have an unfavorable &C., ton.
 Consider the matter of digestion of the foods we eat-the source of our energy and power. Studies have shown that the conditions favorable to proper digestion are upset when we experience veXation, worry and anxiety, or when emotions such as anger and fear are allowed to pre- vail.
 Best When Happiest
 The nicely balanced reactions of digestion beginning with the water ing of the mouth at the sight of food, and ending when q wonderful interplay of various gland secretions and chemical digestive agents have completed the process, take place best when we live in happy sur 
 Excitement, whose observable ef- fccts, such as paleness of the face, rapid beating of the heart, increased respiration, and the stopping of the flow of saliva, all of which are well known, may also check the secre- tions of the glands of the stomach and intestine for some time.
 Cool Of First
 The moral is that if we have ex- perienced an outburst of passion or strong eXcitment, it is well not to take nourishment until we are ealmed down and are willing to look 1t things good naturedly or with a courageous poise. This applies 10 nan, woman and child. If this rule were followed, there would be fewer lcrvous disorders.
 Ductless glands, or glands of in- crnal secretion, have 10 do with 'ur emotional states. Of these the -drenals above the kidney and cer- ain parts of other important or ans are known to be active in our of different kinds of ceiling. '
