Ellsworth shares ambition with Ad-
miral Byrd, as with British, Nor

flyer-explorers. Difference is that,
whereas Mr.. Ellsworth's motives
are purely scientific, in other cases
international politics in their rela-
ton to geographical claims are the
incentives. ..
Love of adventures manifested
when yet in his teens sent Els
worth forth to explore unknown
regions in different parts Of the
world. Scion Of wealthy parents,
born in Chicago in 1880, he could
have ordered his career, had he
wished, along many lines less
strenuous and Of fewer hazards
than the one he chose and in
which he has become so distin-
guished. He cane east to a crack
seat Of secondary learning, the
Hill school, P0ttst0wn, Pa, and
upon graduation entered Column
bia where he won scholastic hon.
Ors in the department Of civil
engineering. But, becoming res
tive under the sedentary routine
of student life, he did not wait
to be graduated.
Earring forth into the wild, he be-
came an aXman on the first Grand
Trunk Pacific railway survey of the
transcontinental route across Cana
da. For five years he saw the vir-
gin land of the Northwest, lived
among Indians, shared the hard
ships of pioneers. In 1907 he became
resident engineer of the Grand Trunk
at Prince Rupert, B. c.
But his work, filled though it was
with hardship and adventure, was not
enough. ReStlessness was in his
soul and the unknown beckoned. So
1909 found him in the Peace river
district in northern Canada, pros
pecting for gold. Then the World
war came and, seeking action, he
went to France where he became
an aviator long before the United
States entered the strife.
The real turning point in his
career came with his meeting
with RaOul Amundsen in Paris
in 1924. With the great Nor
