Tonight I am to say few
words to you about PIONEER work.
Many Of you have had personal ex-

which transformed the wilderness
into our great country, and know
how the scout and trapper cross

trails that We're followed by the

the frontier Of the old West is
gone, but there are other frontiers
which yet beckon the men who are
eager to learn and to do. | refer

the scientists who are working to
discover the laws Of nature
whether they deal with the hidden
world underground, or with cleo

are pushing forward on frontiers
Which must be extended if we are
