BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Three adj
Venturesome friends, natives of
countries lying at opposite points of
the globe, will within a few weeks
be leading expeditions along routes
as. variant as their native lands to
spend siX-months-long summer
day in the mysterious, south polar
continent of the Antarctic.
One of them is Commander Fitch
ard Evelyn Byrd, United States
Navy, retired, native of the United
States. Another is Capt. Sir George
Hubert wilkins, a native of Aus
tralia, born of an old French family,
the De Villiers. The third is Com
mander Douglas George Jeffrey,
Royal Navy, retired, native of
England.
Start at Same Time
Byrd and wilkins will start ap-
proximately at the same time, on
day early in September; from OPP
posite sides of the North American
continent, Byrd from New York and
Sir Hubert from San Francisco.
Toward the end of September JEFF
frey will sail from New York. De-
spite the later date of sailing, jeff
rey expects to be on the field of
operations earlier than his two
friends, because he has less distance
to travel.
Jeffrey expects to sail directly
southwark, visiting Argentina to
cooperate with meteorological ex-
perts of that nation.
Montevideo will be his last port
of call and he will sail past the tip
Of South America, slip into the ANTI
arctice circle and establish his head
quarters on Graham Land on the
coast of the Weddell Sea. His crew,
including ship hands, will number
about twenty-five.
Byrd to Spend Winter
Commander Byrd with his fifty
five men, his Eskimo dogs, his air.
planes and his equipment for spend
ing not only the coming summer
day, but a six-months night and an
other day in the Antarctic, will take
a much longer route, proceeding to
New Zealand.
wilkins, from his Pacific coast
starting point, expects to go to Pan
anna, barter there for passage for
his retinue, which will not exceed
seven men, and go to Tasmania
where he will board a whaler bound
for the Ross Sea in the Antarctic
about Nov. l, beginning his fight
from point probably within $50
miles of Commander Byrd's base
about Jan. L.
Jeffrey Returns in May
Upon arriving in Ross Sea, Sir
Hubert expects to drop overheard
his Lockheed seaplane, similar to
the Lockheed Vega plane in which
he flew over the North Pole from
Alaska to Spitzhergen last spring,
toward Grhaam Land, landing be-
side one of the forty whaling vessels
usually operating at that season.
Aboard the whaler he expects to be
taken back to Montevideo.
Jeffrey will spend only the Ant
arctic summer season in his ex-
plorations, returning to civilization
next May.

Despite Towns Small Size.

BIZ Times Special
KENTLAND, Ind, Aug. 9.-Today
is more than circus day in Kent
land. It's George AIDES circus day,

the humorist that the Hagenback-

everybody to have a good time"
His idea of a good time apparently
was seeing a circus. But, Kentland
being regarded as somewhat under
the regulation size for the big tops,
AIDE made bid to attract the Hag-
enback- Wallace show to his home
town" The bid was accented.

Health Hints

| Numerous outbreaks of food poi

the eating of shellfish. oysters and
mussels.
In many instances these poison.
ings were due to bacterial contain.
nations and epidemics of typhoid
fever have been traced to the con
sumption of mussels taken from
sewage polluted waters.
Cases of poisoning from eating
mussels at one time were suffi-
GENTLY frequent to create definite
| public prejudice against this food.
Recently but few such cases have
been reported and the prejudice
seems TO be disappearing.
Invstigatc's in the University
Of California recently studied she'll
fish poisoning as it occurs on The
Pacific Coast. In July. 1927, there
was definite outbreak of poison
from the eating Of mussels gath

the golden gate near San Fran

Within three days six deaths and
many severe cases of poisoning
were reported. and eventually 1t
was determined that practically
everyone who had on Sunday, July

cred in certain localities along the
coast had been poisoned by the
food.

| Experiments indicated that the
poison was a chemical substance Of
complex combination. The evi.
dence is not certain as to Just how
the poison gets into the mussel. i
is believed to be either associated
with the absorption of poison from
the pilings on rocks near the coast
or from the association of the mus.
sells with certain poisonous crab
in ocean waters.
The poison is not apparently re.
lated to bacterial contamination
but is due to some disease of the
mussel which has definite effect
on its tissue and which has no
yet been studied sufficiently to per,

New York, Nov. 5.-"Clothes clos
cts are character builders.
Give children closets with
hooks just the right height and a
place for everything. and the
chances are that habits of neat
ness and a desire for order will
follow that will affect their whole
lives.
Give older folks attractive,
convenient closets and they know
the pleasure of peace in their
lives. Their .tempers and all Their
relations with those about them
will be affected"
This philosophy of closets, as
you might call it. comes from Il
woman who spent two decades

Eighteen years ago. to be exact,
Mrs. Herzog had friend ask her

Being practical and yet gifted with
Imagination and an artistic sense,
Mrs. HerZog made such a lovely
and convenient thing of that clos
ct that other friends pressed her
into service. Her profession of
building artistic closets was just

Mrs. HerZog has done" clos

folks in the world. She went TO
Japan one year. just to see that
one wealthy clients closets were
put in right. She has designed
and personally supervised closets
from New York to the Pacific and
even in Honolulu. She has gone

She has built closets for infants

used Just about everything from
fine satins and lace to chintzes for

Mrs. Herzog's closets really
speak more eloquently than she
does. Their completeness makes

closets are.
