DIDN’T KNOW ABOUTTffi WAR Party Was Cut Off From Civilized World for Four Years—Rescue Ship Appeared When Food Ran Very Lov*. New York.—The return to civiliza tion of Daniel B. MacMillan. American explorer, brings to a successful close one of the most remarkable stays In the ice of the roof of the globe record ed in the annals of Arctic exploration. I nusual good and unusual bad luck marked the expedition’s history. No less than five ships were used to get the party into northern Greenland, and on the two ur -uccessful and one suc cessful aitemnts to bring MacMillan back home again, but not a single person involved lost his life, and there was no more serious casualty than the loss of frozen toes. This Is a unique record for an Arctic expedi tion lasting four years. Although {Tie enterprise cost about ?2ou.o00 and was one of the most, if not the most, eostiy ever known, sci entists of the American Museum of Natural History here ar - frankly de lighted today with the wealth of new information and the specimens of min erals and the fauna and flora of the frozen North which Mc Millan brings back. Most uninitiated p* -sons think an Arctic expedition con-ists of i>eriods of intense labor inters-rsed with long, aggravating waits in . solute idleness, while the weather prevents traveling far. But this is a mis-:ke. MacMillan was working all the tone. Even when forced to stay near Us main base at Etah. he kept busy, v ry busy. That is why says MacMillan he found the last four years the shc- est of his life. Many times he wei 10 to 40 hours without sleep, purs ag his scientihc studies. And he had considerable time to devote to these studies, for actual exploring can only .e done in three months out of the twelve. MacMi.lan is eng* - to return to this bleak but interesting region of the north p. ;e and will undoubtedly do so a» soon as he can :.nd sufficient finan cial 1 lacking Will Fly Over Ice. H:s next trip will h» something en tirely novel in Arctic exploration, for he proposes to us« an airplane to widen his radius of action, "J expect to do as mu !. in a day with an airplane a> I can do in 20 daj > with the dogs." ho expiained. MacMillan was greatly pleased to learn of the progress in aviation which has taken place on account of the great war during his stay away from the world. He thinks alrpiane cons'ruction has now been carried to a point of perfection where he can rely on certain types of flyers as fully as he does on his “huskies" and his sn< wshoes. MacMillan left Sydney. N. S.. (board the Piana in July. 1913. The ship was wrecked off Barge Point, Labrador, but was finally pulled off and taken to Sr. John's, where the supplies were ini in ferred to the Erik. Three Rescue Attempts. _ In the second ship the party reached El ah. on the west Greenland coast. August 20. It was more than two years ago that the first relief expedition was sent out. Ih-ctor Grenfell's Labrador missionar> schooner, the George B. duett, started in July. 1915. for Etah. but was unable to go through the heavy floes of ice en countered. Dr. Edmund O. Hovey of the Ameri can museum then fined out the Den mark. but this ship failed also, and is believed to be still frozen in the ice off the Green land coast. It was Capt. Robert Bartlett, companion of Peary on the trip when he reached the north pole, who finally *hae&eded w here the others had failed. He used the staunch sealing steamer Neptune, and by his feat he adds considerably to the repu tation he made on his several voyages with Peary. Bartlett says the ice on this trip was the heaviest he had ever met. MacMillan w-as also one of Peary’s lieutenants on the polar trip. Many of the things MacMillan has accomplished in the far North will be appreciated only by the scientific world. But even the layman can un derstand his work in mapping a great stretch of the coast of Ellesmere Land, across Smith's sound to the west of Greenland: discovering 'he second biggest glacier in the northern hemisphere; locating two new islands and disproving the existence of two more, showing that Crocker Land, seen by Peary from the summit of an im mense cliff, is only a mirage, and pene trating many miles over the frozen ocean beyoqjJ tpe point wjiere Crocker Laud was supposed to begin. When rescued by Bartlett at Etah. MacMillan and the members of his party were living on dog biscuit and ducks' eggs, but were in good health. They would probably have endured severe hardships next winter, however, if they had not been reached in time. MacMillan crossed Smith's sound once every year he spent in the North, and every rime cam*- through without a mishap, a remarkable feat in itself. He found rich mineral-bearing rocks AN ORDERLY JOB PO IS mss * pracg Miss Hannah Patterson of Pitts burgh. well-known suffragist, is the efficiency expert of the woman’s sec tion of the council of national .defense. When she came to Washington her co workers were iabormg under misfit conditions in an unsuitable building. Miss Patterson in two days had laid out a plan covering the entire work of the committee and quarters were found which exactly fitted the commit tee’s needs. She is executive secre tary pro tern for the organization now. She is a civic worker and a suf frage campaigner. and extensive coal fields. The exact nature of these discoveries is not vet entirely disclosed. A complete report will he given out by the American museum. The expenses of the trip were borne by the museum, the Ameri can Geographical society, the Univer sity of Illinois and various persons in terested in Arctic exploration. " ith his thousands of specimens so valuable to the scientific world. Mac Millan br.ngs hack »n insignificant tin box. which to one person in the world means more that, a hundred nar-whale skeletons. MacMillan told the story of this little box as follows: "I gave this box to a little Eskimo girl, who will cry her eyes out over the loss of it. She insisted upon coming with us up from Etah. Forty miles from there we had to chase her off the boat, and in her hurry she left this tin box. She can comfort herself with the other treasures priceless to her. 1 gave her a little silver watch, a tooth brush. bits of gaudy cloth, a rnrtrap. some paracn which she used as chewing gum and a piece of soap. 1 first saw the child when I came north with Peary on the trip when he found the pole.” W. Elmer Ekblaw and all the mem bers of the party gave high praise to Dr. Morton P. Porsild. a noted Danish scientist, head of the Danish govern ment scientific station at Godhaven. Disco island. Greenland. Ekblaw was the first American scientist to spend any time with Doctor Porslid. although students from several European coun tries have been sent to the station for instruction. "Doctor Porsild is doing work in bot any. geology, astronomy and zoology and :n the study of Eskimo culture which will gain recognition from the whol< scientific world." said Ekblaw. “He and his wife have been at God haven «ince 1905; their daughter was born there anti has never been out of Greenland. He initiated his work and the Danish government was so im pressed by its value that they allow him 10.000 crowns (about $2,880) a year to carry it on. It extends throughout the Baffin Bay region and along the east coast of Greenland. "Doctor Porsild is forty-five years old. but 1 tks older. He has a beauti ful home, an extensive library and a well-equipped laboratory. The numer ous hot springs at Godhaven render the climate and vegetation similar to those some 000 miles to the south.” PUTS OUT FIRE IN THEATER Audience Cheers Soldier Who Pre vented Building Burning in Texas. Sar. Antonio. Tex.—In the course of •he “5-10-15-cent" theatrical perform ance in a Houston street theater Sun day afternoon, one of the actors had "died” and had been stretched out upon the “o- '.ing board" with the con ventional candles at head and feet. After the action, which was somewhat rapid, one of the actors, alone, stood t*?fore the audience and sane. Soon a ••andle fell from its position and lay banting or. the sheet that lay over the “dead" person.

The housekeeper who plans her meals for two or three days in advance saves much time and thought. There was a time when carpenters cut each timber as they built the house. The modern builder knows before the first foundation is laid .hist how his pun. will work out. His estimates are accu rate and because he plans he builds successfully and without waste. Exactly the same method of plan nine should he followed in the kitchen. There is less likelihood that the same food will he often repeated or often cooked in the same way if the meals for several days are planned in ud v.t„ce But in preparing meals the housewife Should be guided by several principles. These rules are as fol low* t include in each tnenl foods suited U)C needs of each member of the family—hearty foods for healthy adults; simple, «-a:.lly digested f< nls for children and the aged. IH> not serve the same food in dif ferent forms at the same meal, as po :ato soup and potato salad ; eggs and •ustard pie, or canned corn and corn bread. Balance the different parts of the meal. A heavy main course such as roast pork should he followed by liglfr dessert like apple sauce or baked apple rather than apple pie. A meal in ■w hich vegetables form the principal course is well rounded by a heavier dessert like mince pie. 4. In planning the meal choose foods nither by what they contain in nutri ments than by their hulk, and include in each meal ati article rich in the nec essary food dements. Do not. however, select too many foods rich in protein ..r fat or starch. Meat served with macaroni and cheese furnishes too much protein; rice and potatoes too much starch, roast pork and mince pie too much fat. Antiseptic surgery has been prac ticed since lSGo.

Harvest the Crops — Save the Yields On the battle fieW* of France and Flanders, the United States bovs and the Canadian boys are fighting side by side to win for the World the freedom that Prus sianism would destroy. While doing this they must be fed and every ounce of muscle that can be requisitioned must go into use to save this year’s crop. A short harvest period requires the combi red forces of the two countries in team work, such as the soldier boys in France and Flanders are demonstrating. The Combined Fighters In France and Flanders and tha Combined Harvesters in America WILL Bring the Allied Victory Nearer. A reciprocal arrangement for the use of farm workers has been perfected between the Derail meat of the Interior of Canada and the Department* of Labor and Agriculture of the United Stales, under which it is proposed to permit the harvesters that are now encaged in the wheat fields of Okla homa.
