Therein is reflected the adventurous spirit of the man. The Arctic still calls him. For him the invention of the airship is welcome, for it
 invites him to continue exploring in the unin- habitable North. Accordingly, the voyage of the Graf Zeppelin in 193O is planned to survey the Arctic Basin study it with the aid of other scientists. make the adventure live again in mar rative, of which Nansen is master, and illustrate the story with revealing photographs.
 As public he is hardly less famous than as an adventurer in polar regions In Western Europe there is better authority on the Russia of today His work in that country since the greai war has enhanced his reputation. He was 2s years old when he made the first crossing of Greenland daring undertaking as man faced His account of it is classic. To get an
 idea Of Nansen in action it is well to read about his "Farthest North" in 1893. He had designed the Tram. It became the most famous of polar ships Amundsen also used it. The hull was round and slippery like eel, with corners or edges to give a grip to the ice At latitude S3 degrees 59 minutes Nansen with one com panion Lieutenant Johansen, left the frozen-in Fran to make sledge journey to the Pole. The shin was turned over to Captain Sverdrup. The pair it was calculated, would have to travel north for fifty days, and they carried rations for one hundred. Al point 261 miles from the Pole the ice was n such state that the adventure had be given up. Turning south the pair lived there in hut through one terrible winter subsisting on the bear, seal and walrus they killed In June. while working south with kayaks they providentially fell in with the Jackson- Harmsworth expedition.
 In recent years Dr. Nansen has given more thought to scientific problems than to geo. graphical discovery He is anxious to make him. self useful to his feow-men. His voyage in the Graf Zeppelin will have its object the uses of the Arctic Basin for the benefit of Europe Asia and Northern America. He proposes to ex- anime all the coasts and sound the Arctic Sea in every part; to select districts for meteoroogica stations while learning what is to be known of the Arctic weather. Arctic research will be the prime considerations" he has said

SOMETHING TO LAUGH AT.

Five years ago then Premier MaeDonald the Labor Party leader of Great Britain, undertook to have tri-partisan investigation as to the economic benefits, costs and practieability of d tunnel under the English Channel between Great Britain and France. However the Committee of Imperial Defense opposed the proposal on the ground that 1t might contribute to the invasion at sometime of Great Britain The matter was dropped A short time ago the French Chamber of Deputies discussed the matter The position of the English Committee of Imperial Defense was mentioned, Someone said the opposition was ridi cuious for the reason that. in case of war. the tunnel could easily be put out Of business at either end. Premier Baldwin, in the light of this great discovery, has taken the matter up again and, it is said. will ask the Labor Party and the Liberal Party to participate in consideration of all phases of the question,

Utah Advertises Mining.
Engineering and Mining Journal.


 Perhaps better analysis setting forth the economic value of single industry to a State has appeared than that recently issued in book let form by the Chamber of Commerce of Salt Lake City under the title What Mining Means to Utah" The major part of the booklet con- ssts of series Of short articles, each of which was prepared by the manager of one of the lead ing mining or smeting companies operating in the Salt Lake Valley. These articles summarize the economic importance of individual companies to the State and to the districts in which the operations of the respective companies are sit uated
 such sgniheanet information as: the mining in- dustry Of Utah disburses $S5 1000, 900 annually in wages, freight and supplies; the payroll of the industy s one-third of the total of the payrolls Of the State. supplies purchased for company use average sSO,000 day. and freight tonnage of the Industry IS so per cent of the total originated by the railroads of the State. Employees of the industry, and those directly dependent on it. spend annually S15,5i5 coo for food SC 100 900 for rent and homes and $4,75O,O GOO for clothing

tremble and to move. On the pier
Jack Moore wiped mis- g~listening

Sybil sighed profoundly. 81 guess
I've fixed things this time, Nab.

life forever"
Mabel said nothing at the time,
but shortly she began to talk
divorce. After dinner that night
she found a sequestered corner for
their deck chairs, and to SYPHILIS
great amazement, proceeded calm
ly to advocate an immediate di-
vorce.
81 don't know how you'd go
about it," she admitted. But
aren't they awfully easy things to
get in Paris? In this country
there's something about establish
ing a residence-that is, you have
to live for a certain length of time
wherever you file suit. So that
ducking out of Boston wouldn't do
much good. People would know
anyhow. But if you went over to
Paris, it could all be so quiet no
body would even suspect
Sybil laughed.
"Anybody'd think you were talk
ing about running over to South
Boston," she joked, and added
plaintively, 'how, my dear, could
l hop over to Paris?'
Mabel vas vague.
''Oh, it could be arranged some
how. I'd love to see you out of
this mess, Sybil, before Craig
knows about it. BY the way, did
you ever write him?"
