PAGE SIX 4 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE THURSDAY, FEB. 3, 1921 STORMS BALK ASCENT OF PEAK Mountaineers Make Daring ate tempt to Climb Giant of the Himalayas. WILL RENEW ATTACK LATER British Explorers Get 21,000 Feet Up Mount Kinchinjunga and Are Com. pelled to Stop by Bad Weather— Encounter Difficulties. * Manchester, England—A Manches- ter Guardian correspondent at Calcut- ta remarks that great interest has been aroused by an attempt to climb Mount Kinchinjunga, one of the giants of the Himuls Harold Raeburn, editor of Moun- taineering Art. and C. G. Crawford of the Assan civil sevice, both mem- bers of the Alpine elub, were known to be conducting preliminary explora- tions in the hope of finding an casy uecess to Une summit, More than one. skirmish in the vi ity of Kinchinjunga was made, though the rains at the time were heavy and the ev hifting ice fields in the mountains were likely to come down in terrific avalanches, making all climbing impossible without seri- ous risk to life. 1 Their explorations led the climbers along the course of the Talung er, which takes its rise in the Talung glacier. Here they crossed streams, the bridges of which had been washed away, and passed impenetrable for- ests, through which they had to hew their way for several d: Un- daunted by the rainy weatjer, they traveled’ almost straight north to} Pamionghi, across the Giuchu Pas 16,430 feet, toethe Talung . glacier, which most immediately to the south of Kinchinjunga, and there ob- | tained a glorious view of the moun- | tains, Encounter Great Difficulties. The party returned to Darjeeling | and made their final preparations, en- | gaging coolies and large quantities of | stores. The rains, however, were so severe that it was not until September 2 that the two explorers were able to} get away. Traveling out by the Sin- galila ridge, they attacked Kinchin- junga ‘on the southwest side and ex- | plored the glaciers. Access to the * summit by that direction was found difficult, but the party persevered and | eventually camped out at a level of | 20,000 feet. | Here more difficulties were met and bad weather was experienced. Snow | began to fall and the expedition be- came increasingly hazardous. A fur- ther thousand feet was overcome, but | at this point the attempt had to be | abandoned. | The return was made by a new | snow pass about 18,000 feet high. The weather was at first exceedingly bad. but éonditions be¢ame better later. There was no rain on lower level, al- | though occasional snow showers were | met higher up. Considerable difficulty was experienced ween returning, ow- ing to the depth of new snows on the Sikkhim side, which were probably due | to the bad weather experienced in the | latter part of Septemher. Finally the _party reached Darjeeling in the mid- dle of October, having been awa over a month, Both the explore were greatly impressed by the pes but ,confident that, given good weath- er, the summit could be attained. Attempt Made in 1899. It is interesting to recall that a similar attempt made by Douglas W. Freshfield in 1899. Mr, Freshfield was led to undertake the exploration’ by the fact that owing, as he S, partly to cost gand the difficulty of travel in § him and partly to the obstacle presented by the Nepalese froytier, no ropean had up to the end of the nineteenth century gone around the mountain, Even Joseph Hooker did not approach 4 enough to explore the rs of the giant. As for offi surveys, these, according to Mr, Freshfield, have al- | ternately ignored and caricatured the glaciers. | Mr. Freshfield did not think much | of his tour from a Gimbing point of view. “It is, of course, impossible,” he | writes, “to go up and down 75,000 | feet without some climbing in the pop- | ular sense of the word, but in the technically Alpine sense we had far too little mountaineering for my taste. Rope and ice-ax played but a very subordinate’ part in our journey.” . | soy bean, which is richer in protein Toy Train Was for Himself.

The country child has quite as’ much right to the benefits of the practice as has the city child. Usually when there thing of the sort, a way is found. The situation, however, will require a teacher of ingenuity and of enthus- iasm for her work, The simplest equip- ment includes a large kettle suitable to be used on the stove which heats the schoolhouse, measuring cup and paring keife, mixing spoon, as. It wil usual- ly be possible for the boys to make a set of shelves for the dishes, using box lumber. if no other is available, and for the girls to make curtains or from dust. The pupils will, as a rule, he found willing to bring plates, cups, bolvis, and spoons from home, if this is necessary, in order to keep down expen! A fireless cooker can easily be made by the pupils as a class ex- ercise. In this a hot dish for lunch can be prepared before school. The fireless cooker Is convenient for meat meat and bean soups, cereal mushes, and many other dishes that require long: cooking. i The recipes for the dishes cooked for Minch imay be given to the older gifs in school, discussed in class, and tried at home. The special dish for the day, whieh in winter is usvally hot and in summer more often cold, can be prepared and served at noon by the girls in turn, working in groups, Tt will often be uecessary to xerve the food to the children at their seats: etice Which’ 16 not especlally.; ==. objectionable. if the schoolhoyse ‘is in-and well ventilateyiuhe-desks ully cleaned hefore> meals,” and tlie building thoroughly screened to. “keep out fies, which are always dan-* werous around food, since they. ear convey to it the bacteria wlich cause intestinal and other diseases.

The others can be brought from hoine. The choice of the dish to be cooked should be determined partly by what it is possible to do in the way of cooking at the school, chased or home-grow ‘ood fs avail- able, and what the school garden or neighboring fields or woods .afford, and lear go from experience is needed to. ith the foods brought from home.

The project is an outcome of ps efforts of Sir Alexander Gibb, chief engineer of ports construction in tlie Britis’ army during the war aud:build- er of the great naval’ dockyard’ at Rosyth. It is calculated that the pow- er plant could produce 1,000,000 horse- power at its peak load capacity and that it would save 3,000,080 to 4,000,- 000 tons of oul a year. It is claimed that it would revolutionize the whole, industry of the west of England and even supply London with cheap elec- tric current. A concrete dam would be placed across the river creating a lacked ba- ; Sin twenty-seven square miles in ex- tent, into which vessels could pass through a channel, It is estimated that the undertaking would: provide work for 250,000 men for seven years. In. the spring tides the Severn rises thirty-eight feet. the second highest . tide after the Bay of Fuody. The’ fact that tidal waters have never yet been used for the generation of elec- triGily on such a vast scale, coupled with the big estimated ‘cost of the scheme, make engineering experts cau- tious in expressing views as to its feasibility. The Times editorially refers to the project’ as‘ ‘somewhat flamboyant.” The consent of parliament must be obtained before ‘the scheme can be!
