SON OF PEARY TO
TAKE TRIP NORTH
May Follow in Footsteps of
His Father.

New York.-Robert Peary, son of
the North pole discoverer, is following
in the footsteps Of his father and
hopes some day to become a great
explorer.
Scientific studies now are claiming
his attention at Lehigh university,
but when June and vacation time roll
northward with the Putnam Williams
expedition to Greenland to gather ma
terial for the newly completed Hall
of Ocean Life of the American Mu-
scum of Natural History.
Young Peary is not taking the trip
as a pleasure jaunt. Instead, he will
be full-fledged member and will
have to do the work mapped out for
him just as all others of the party.
The same man who was skipper Of
the vessel used by Peary on his sue
cessful North pole expedition will
command the Morrissey on the Green
land trip-Capt. Bob Bartlett. The
navigator, who has known of young
Peary's plans, long has wanted him
to make his first trip on the Morris
sey.
III. c. Raven, assistant curator Of
comparative and human anatomy at
the museum, is leading the expedi-
ton, which was organized by George
Palmer Putnam, the publisher, and
provided for through gift by Harri-
son Williams.
The white whale, sharks, seal and
walrus are some Of the specimens the
party will bring back. Attempts will
be made to take movies of the white
whale in action, as there are no such
photographs on record.
Frederick Limekiller and Van
Campden Heilner will accompany the
party as taxidermist and ichthyolo-
gist, respectively.
Knud Rasmussen, Danish explorer,
also is expected to join the expedition.
The youngest member will be Put
MANS 12-year-old son, David.

Without Food "A Days,
Quits Cage a Wreck

Berlin. - Herr jolly, professional
faster. established record of A days
of abstention from food and was
helped out of his glass cage, phys
ical wreck. He had beaten the worlds
record. held by Signor Mulatti Of
Italy. by one day. The new champion
was eagerly received by large crowd,
including numerous physicians who
have been interested in his case.
Though unable to walk and speaking
in a feeble voice, Jolly's mind seemed
alert.
The floor of his cage was carpeted
with cigarette butts and strewn with
mineral water bottles. jolly said that
during the last three days he had been
able to smoke only ten cigarettes IL
day since they affected his stomach.
The doctors on superficial examina-
ton found the faster's digestive or
CANS entirely dormant and took him
to hospital, where he will be fed Il
liquid diet.
Jolly, who is twenty-five years old,
did his first fasting when he was I'M
prisoned during the French occupa-
ton of his Rhenish homeland. He
went on a hunger strike and held out
for Is days.
On the present occasion when he en-
tered his cage he weighed $50 pounds,
and his weight after his fast was
around 1O3.
The gross receipts of this exhibition
amounted to $780, 900.

White Collie Is Calls
Closest COMPANION

Washington.-One of President
Co0lIdge's closest companions is a dog
Rob Roy, the snow-white collie
which has supplanted the Harding
Laddie Boy as canine boss of the
White House.
During the two years he has had
the run of the executive mansion Rob
Roy has worked himself into the af-
fections of the president. Frequently
when his master returns to his office
after luncheon he trots along to take
a snooze in front of the fireplace, a
curl-up in leather chair at the Pres
idents elbow, or look out of the win
dow. yearning probably for run
around the yard or out into the street
with dogs that don't have to observe
White House etiquette.

Innocent Indian Freed
After Serving S Years

Oklahoma City, Okla. - Edward
Fluke, thirty, whose Indian stoicism
caused him to serve five years in the
Oklahoma penitentiary for murder
he did not commit, was pardoned by
Gov. M. E. Trap. Fluke, q quarter
blood Indian, was charged with the
murder at Vinita of Harold Fry, a
mail carrier, whose charred body was
found in a partly burned haystack ten
days after he disappeared in 1921.
Fry's motor car was located in pos
session of Fluke. The latter was ar
rested, but refused to talk. At his
trial Fluke played the part of silent
observer, declined to testify and was
convicted. He entered the peniten-
tiary under life sentence.
Two years later Fluke made state
ment accusing Levi jenkins, Indian
youth, Of the killing. According to
Fluke, he was in a motor party which
included Fry and jenkins. Fry re-
sented a remark jenkins made about
a young woman. A quarrel followed,
in which Fry was killed.
Jenkins was arrested and convicted
of the Staying. He went to the peni-
Tertiary in 1923, but Fluke stayed on,
too.
The attorney general reported to the
governor that Fluke's only crime ap-
parently was in aiding jenkins to
escape. In pardoning him the governor
ho hol hn
ished sufficiently for the lesser offense.

 The admonition is in tho form Of an editorial appearing in the cur rent naval communications bulletin which reaches all radio personnel in the service, ashore or afloat.

A RICH HERITAGE

Not everyone realizes what Norway's wealth of vitamin-rich cod-liver oil means to the health and happiness of the human-family.
 While the ancient Norsemen have faded into a glorious past, they have left cod-Luer oil as rich heritage to every child and grown person, a blessing to those VI ho need and will use its health h-giving virtues.
 For more than half century Scott's Emulsion of inuigorafing cod-liuer oil with which is combined glycerine and hypophosphites of lime and soda, has been helping millions of all ages enjoy this heritage of health,
 Scott's Emulsion assures to those of any age inUigorating cod-liUer oil As3 with all of its vitamin-strength Dy3 and health building virtues un- Vt7 impaired, exceedingly pleasant MA to take.
