The I iohhy then skirted I'rlnce <?eorge's land and the party made a landing nt Capo Flora, where a large stone marked the sojourn of un earlier Italian geodetic survey expedition. "The islands here," suid Miss Hoyd, with their dome-shaped glucler-covered mountains were In remarkable contrast to Spitsbergen's Jagged peaks. Hut even here the brief Arctic summer brings forth vegetation. In sheltered spots there -was plenty of white and yellow flowers and the Islands were positively alive with gulls. There was no sign of any other life. Nothing remained of the huts erected thirty years ago by the Jackson-Harmswon|, expedition. "Our intention to -reach eastern Spltzbergen by way. of the Eycites Islands was frustrated by moving harumoeky Ice fields. Our best shooting was between the 78th and 70th degrees.

Three of them are about eighteen months' old and two six months old. Of the best of these Count Itivadavia will present one to King Alfonso. The others will he handed over to the Nor^ wegian representative of a continental menagerie. Aliss Boyd said her only disappointment during tfie trip was the entire nbsence of the walrus, which the party had hoped to hunt. The women of the party wore high boots, breeches, sweaters add heavy coats and fur caps with enr flaps as a protection against frostbite. The temperature, however, did not fall beloy 11 degrees of frost, Fahrenheit. For days the ship was encased In a two-Inch coating of Ice. The worst purl of the trip came after a fruitless attempt to land on Hope island, a lonely rock southeast of Spltzbergen. Miss Boyd took 21,000 feet of film, beside 700 photographs of Arctic scenery.

School Teachers Ciee MdJee, in The Anderson I)bi!y Mull, says: There are two kinds of school teachers, via: Those that arc already man u.'d and those that want to get married. Those that are married arc sorry they are married and those that are single are sorry they are single. When a lady touches as long us five ea.r* and does not succeed 111 lassoing a satisfactory pair of britches she takes up teaching in earnest, and makes it her life work. The idea among trustee* ami patrons is that the further off you go from home for teachers the better they arc. Most teachers are born, not raised. It requires an educatloa in most schools, but if u person is not thoroughly prepared ull he or she has to do is to keep her mouth shut. lie fore ulhletics came into the life of our young hopefuls our schools were looked upon as places of learning. Hut not so now. The school that has the best footbull team, or the best basketball team, or the fastest runner, or the greatest discuss thrower, is the school that stands head and shoulders above all other schools. Hook learning is secondary to athletics, and that's why most stenographers spell "been" bin, and "sure" xhure, and "deposit" deposeet, and "cat" cat. Speaking of school teachers, my \Jncle Joe totdme he-taw a man from Savannah lust week who told him his son, who lives .in Alabama, had met a gentleman fiom Oklahoma whose daughter roomed with a school teacher in Wisconsin who had not bobbed her iiair, and who did not wear her dresses quite up to her knees. School teachers, as a rule, make good wives and husbands. That's because I hey don't know how to control children. When a school teacher makes a matrimonial dive at an affable .young man who would consent, he i had as well see Ins jeweler right away ami begin to arrange terms and installments. They get what they go after, and believe me they go. In fact, that's why they ure teaching. Hut the dissemination of knowledge to and among the adolescent is the task of our teachers, and if they can, by their effervescent personality and their equitable forbearance, succeed in overcoming the barriers of sport and indifference, "ftnd the lack of brains and the desire to be a Jesse James or an Emma (Joldman, which spirit is forever existent among most children, they have done a duty that discovering a new planet, or flying over the north polo, cannot outshine. I'. S.?I would toll tht' truth, tho whole truth ami nothing but the truth about leather* had I not married one. And she ran read, too.
