Missouri, that Everybody is from now saying ought not to like Cook, where the acceptance of them makes for fame and wealth anc from Everybody we is statements of men Peary and even in a matter 1 Chautauqua engagements, and dollar-a-word offers but, on the other hand, everybody suggests that magazines as a matter of form only, any slivers of the pole which the in trepid explorers may have about them may just as well be shown, necessarily for publication, and not at all ds a guaranty of good faith The postoffice address of Mr, Common People will be for some time to come at Springfield, or Gainesville, or some other Ozark mountain point in Old Mizzoura, and he is calling for the cold facts about the pole that it was there. He has known that it was cold, and icy, and snowy, and hard to reach. Some of him used to believe in the Symmes Hole theory that there is an opening there, into the warm interior of the earth, and a good, habitable country, where the wild geese breed—but that was long ago: thing, they've found the real breeding grounds, other, the explorers have been close enough heretofore to de For one and for an velop the fact that the pole is a mighty cold proposition, where a backward spring is perennially merged into an carly fall, to the end that the ice-cap grows thicker annually. To the purely utilitarian mind, the game seems scarcely | worth the candle. Away back in 1886, Bill Nye, in mentioning the explorations of Naddodr, the viking who discovered Iceland in A. D. 860, expressed surprise that any viking should roam around in the cold nosing out frostbitten Eskimos, when he could just as well remain at home and vike. Perhaps the explorers will remain at home and vike in the future. Walter Wellman may fee! free now to bring home his airship for the county fairs. Let us hope so. Savage has already turned his attention to an airship dash to the south pole. We may rest assured, however, that the axis of the earth has two ends, and that the south terminus is there, all right. Why not let it go at that? Reverting to Mr. Nye’s observations, and adopting them as our own, we note that “representatives of almost every quarter of the globe have been up that way, acquired a large red chil- blain, made an observation and died. They have been to the far north, eaten their little haunch of jerked polar bear, and then the polar bear has eaten his little haunch of jerked ex plorer, and so the good work has gone on. The polar bear, with his wonderful retentive faculties, has succeeded in retain- ing his great secret regarding the pole, together with the men who came out there to find out about it. “So every nation ‘neath the sun has contributed its as- sortments of choice white skeletons and second-hand clothes to the remorseless maw of the hungry and ravenous north.” PARK BOARD IN ERROR It is to be hoped that the park board will reconsider its determination to plow up Lincoln park and sow it to grass, thereby robbing the boys of the Broadway high school of their only practice ground for football and other sports There really seems no use for this contemplated action on the part of the park board. There is nothing now offensive to the eye at Lincoln park. Terraced with shrubbery and flowers, it is a thing of beauty rather than an eyesore. But even if it were not, the question of the good judgment of the park board might still be raised. Lincoln park is the only plot of ground within many blocks of the Broadway high school that may be used by the boys for Practice purposes. If we are to encourage athletics and out-of- door games in our schools we should provide grounds for the use of the schools. Fortunately, in the case of the Broadway high school, this piece of park property is within a half a block of the building, and offers one of the most desirable practice grounds to be found in the city. For several years the park board has permitted its use for high school sports, and there seems no good reason now why the boys of the Broadway high school should be forced to give it up and thereby be compelled to eliminate themselves from the athletic field.
