the pent-up emotion of men who for
months have been directing all their
energies to this goal. It has been their
dream and their ambition, the purpose
to which they have dedicated two years
of their life, and the word that it was
actually in sight acted like an electric
stimulus.
1t Is as much a milestone as the first
flight will be, and that We should have
| reached 1t on Christmas day, day of
thanksgiving and dedication to the
greatest ideals of men, is source OF
thanksgiving and happiness to all on
board. Not the least of all our causes
for celebration is that on Christmas day
we carried the American flag farther
south than it has ever been before, and
have taken with us to that point an
American airplane.
In a few days, if all goes well, that
plane may be winging it's way over the
snowy wilderness of the barrier.
Comdr. Byrd expressed this when, in
a message to the Secretary of the Navy
he said: I'VE have reached the great
mysterious ice barrier. 1t presents to
us an ice cliff higher than the masts of
the ship. On this Christmas day we
are thankful and proud to report that
we have been able to carry the Ameri-
SuAA 1Ad6 oCtCAu4 AluAASACA AAAAACo 3oA CAASA
South than it has ever been, and it
seems fitting that an airplane, that
instrument of good will, should reach
its farthest South on Christmas day.
We are 2,400 statute miles from the
nearest human dwelling in the only
area in the world where ship can get
so far from civilization. That we are
here safely is due to Providence and my
loyal and Stout-hearted shipmates, who
have worked together unselfishly as a
unit"
Not the least wonderful of all the
happenings Christmas evening was that
as we approached the barrier we
listened on deck to broadcaSting from
home. One cannot listen to those me-
tallic tones coming from the loud
speaker without feeling the tremendous
progress made by man in science since
the last Antarctic adventure. 1t is
weird and almost ghostly to hear words
from home coming to us as We move
through these ice-fllled waters to our
base. And comforting, too, for we know
that we have not wholly lost touch with
the world so far away.
BY next Christmas our story will have
been written for what it Is worth and
there is not man aboard who is not in
his heart determining that it shall be
worthy one.

At night after the -FOUR little boys and
girls are abed, young colored mother
sits before her cheerful fire and while
keeping her hands busy with the mend
ing for which the kindly neighborS pay
her, thinks back over the time a few
months before when she lived her days
in terror and went to bed each night
praying for protection against hus-
band half crazed by drink. She remem-
bers the suffering of the thinly clad,
shivering little children through those
days of cold, hunger and privation spent
in a lonely little shanty and bleSses
those who have aided her so wonder
fully, who have given her hope and the
courage to seek and find part-time work
through their sympathy and under

Fate has played a queer trick with
14-year-old Johnnie's frail body. But
he is blessed with mother who under
stands how to make a chap happy.
Edward, his twin, is always considerate
and is forever planning something for
JohnnieTs amusement with the few
cents he picks up in helping his friends
on paper routes. Then there are the
two little girls, Grace, the 11-year-old,
and S-year-old Mildred. Johnnie has
a pleasant home, for mother has a way
of making things look bright and cheer
full. But father has treated them all
shamefully and left mother to puzzle
over the problem Of keeping her family
together. They need S23 a week, or

Six happy little girls ranging in age
from S to IA should have the careful
supervision of their loving mother. Big
brother has just turned 16, but his
earnings will be far too small to provide
protection for his sisters. Mother has
tried to teach them to be self-respecting,
promising young women Of tomorrow
in spite of a father who has cruelty
sidestepped his responsibility and
whose whereabouts are unknown. The
resulting tragedy of removing the
mother from the home and putting her
to work is obvious.
At least $25 a week, or $1,000 will
be necessary if the mother is to remain
at home.
