SEARCHERS WILL HUNT LOST PARTY Brazil Has Case Similar to Livingstone's London, July 22 (A—An explor- ing mystery pa'alleling the famous disappearance of David Livingstone in the heart of darkest Africa in 1866 has forced a call for volunteers to seek Colonel P. H. Fawcett, Brit- ish explorer, who vanished two years ago in the depths of unchart- ed Brazil while searching for traces of the world’s oldest civilization. Colonel Fawcett was last heard of at Bakairl Post, in the Province of Maite Gross® from where he “jumped off” to carry out his in- spection of the central plateau. He hoped there to find relics and trea- surse of bygone civilizations that would prove his theory that the American continent peoples were as culturally important as those of Egypt and ancient Greece. Lvingstone was rescued after be- ing missing five years. The Stanley expedition which brought Living- stone back to civilization is one of the great epics of exploration, The Brazilian territory in which Colonel Fawcett disappeared is in- habited by cave men who eat hu- man flesh, by inpenetrable forests, ferocious animals, poisonous insects and great rept Colonel Fawcett was accompanied by only two whit men, his son Jack Fawecett and Rimmel, another young Englishman. His expedition planned to live on the country and was furnished instruments by the Royal Geographical Society. “Don’t coun‘ on any more dis- patches” said his last message. Colonel Fawcett advised his friends not fo worry unless he was not heard from for at least two years. That time has passed and Mrs, Fawcett, who lives with her daugh- ter at Torquay, is greatly distress- ed at the absence of news from her ‘husband. The Royal Geographical Society has offered the proposed search party all possible help, but points out that while the Brazilian Govern- ment will probably give every as- sistance in its power, it does not pretend to exert any control over the wild interior of the country, with its untamed tribes, which was the goal ot Colonel Fawcett's ad- venture. BOY SCOUT NEWS The third week of Camp Keemo- sahbee finds 36 scouts and five lead- ers enjoying camp life.

Converse, are proving popular and the instruction is thorough.
