OOD from tlio Antarctic
freighter: So prophesies Sir Ernest
Slmckleton, the fntnoua explorer,
now on his wny for the third time
to the "Hottom of the World."
Points which H('m to Indicate thnt
Sir Ernest Is at least n near
prophet, If nothing more, are these:
The high price of food, especially
meat, shows no prospect of substan
tial reduction.
The world shortage of meat Is Increasing, with
apparently no chance of production catching up
with1 consumption.
Tiu likes nnd dislikes of the civil
llzed world for certain kinds of meat
re largely psychological.
Nature lias provided edible animals
ijust as palatable nnd nourishing as
ithose commonly used for food.
The animal food supply of the ant
arctic regions Is varied and apparently
inexhaustible.
The present progress In airplanes
nnd airships Is so rapid that It seems
(foolish to set bounds to their future
(development.
Sir Ernest says he Knows Bea ele
phants, sea lions, seals, penguins nnd
-other animals and birds of the ant
tarctlc are edible. Well, he should
(know what he's talking about. He
certainly had a chance to find out on
Ws second nntarctlc exploration.
Although Cook, as far back as 1774,
igot south aw far as 71 degrees 15 min
utes, and Wcddcll, Ross.. Borcbgrevlnk,
end De Gerlaehe did valuable explora
tion work between 1823 nnd 11)00, It
-was not until Capt. Robert V. Scott's
first expedition In 1002 that the world
.really became Interested In the south
pole. For some reason the race for
discovery honors was principally to
ward the north pole. Slmckleton fol
lowed Scott In 1009. Then Rnnlrt
Amundsen reached the south pole In
HOli. Scott nlso reached It ti few
lays later.
' Shnckleton's second pnrty left
Tiuenos Aires October 27, 1014. aboard
.the Endurance, a small, sturdy ship,
Imllt especially to withstand the on
lnught of the Ice. In addition to the
crew, scientists and explorers, the En
durnnce carried nearly 40 dog teams,
which later proved of untold value In
pldlng the party to cross the Ice on
ithelr historic Journey back to civiliza
tion.
The first stop of the expedition wns
nt South Georgia, the southernmost
outpost of the human race, where ar
rangements had previously been made
tfor taking on supplies to last through
the winter. Seal-meat was a feature
iof these supplies.
' The Endurance started again toward
jthe "Bottom of the World." For weeks
the ship upheld her name gallantly,
lighting her wny through the treacher
ous antarctic seas. Each day the
ijoumey became more dlfllcult d
tnoro dangerous. With colder weather
nnd heavier Ice the members of the
expedition came to renllze that It was
only n question of dnys until they
would have to give up tho Journey tin
jtll spring should break tho Ice again.
1 At three degrees from their destlnn
jtton, the white horror of tho nntarctlc
closed In upon them. Weeks were
spent In nttc npts to clear tho way to
tho open sen, but nil to no avail. Tho
lco was relentless. And then tho sun
pet, not to rise ngnln till spring.
Months were spent In preparation for
tho llnnl dash to the pole. Everything
was In rendlness. Then, as Slmckleton
puts It, "tlu Httle party lest Its home
and Its hopes."
Tho Endurance wns crushed by the
pressure of the Ice, which followed
on tho heels of n terrific blizzard, such
as could occur only In the polar re
gions. The lco toro tho ruderpost
from the ship and a few moments later
aho was thrown sldewaya to an angle
of forty-five' degrees.
Tho entire party was forced to aban
don tho doomed vessel, removing all
necessary supplies. A few weeks later
the Ice ground tho ship to pieces at
last sending It to the bottom.
With tho possibility 6t reaching tho
pole beyond all human endeavor, the
expedition started on the long nnd
perilous return Journey. With the crew
by nlrplnne
dragging the heavy life boats the dog
teams went nheud to break a pathway.
After weeks of traveling It wns found
Impossible to move the entire party,
so they settled down for a stay on the
Ice. Then the Ice broke. For more
than ten months the expedition float
ed about on a great floe, helpless.
At last the huge "raft" hecamo tin
safe. One "night It broke directly
through the center, dropping severnl
men Into the sen. As the Ice raft
grew smnllcr nnd tho sen became more
perilous It was decided to risk every
thing In n despernto attempt to reach
civilization In the small life boats.
Later, seeing the Impossibility of
transporting the entire party nt one
time, Shackleton stnrted nut with five
of his companions for South Georgia,
the nearest point of civilization, nearly
800 miles nway.
They landed on the unlnhnblted side.
Leaving threo of his companions, Sir
Ernest started for tho Strommness
whaling station, 32 miles away, over
a rough sen with huge Ice cakes threat
ening to sninsh thi little crnft. He
finally reached bis destination.
As soon ns arrangement could be
made Shackleton with a new ship nnd
supplies started back to rescue his
ctunpanlons. Following their rescue,
the entire expedition, without the loss
of n man. steamed Into Valparaiso har
bor, while the guns of the Chilean navy
roared welcome. Then came the tri
umphal return to England
So you see Sir Ernest had plenty of
opportunity to find out that the mil
mal life of the antarctic was "edible."
What he thinks of the general proposi
tion to use the food resources of the
nntarctlc In feeding the world may be
seen from these extracts from a letter
written tills summer, to an American
friend, Just ns he wns starting from
London on his third expedition:
"My Dear Chap When you receive
this I shall probably be on the ship
on my wny to the frozen south, to
clear up tho scientific questions that
were loft undone by tho destruction
of the Endurance.
"One thing I have been forced to
overlook through the pressure of
events, nnd thnt Is a question close
to tho hearts or I should say stom
achs of humanity. It Is tho rood
question.
"It Is apparent thnt the world Is
getting short of meat. Consumption
Is outstripping production, nnd tho
condition Is becoming tnoro serious
dnlly. Before long we shall bo forced
to eat meat that today, although It Is
good food, Is filling the skins of inter
esting zoological specimens.
"Ilumnn nature Is peculiar ahout
eating. Pretty and ugly, ferocious nnd
kindly animals of tho zoo, to tho
average man, nre nature's creatures
for his entertainment. He does not
realize that most of theso animals arc
common sights to somo of tho earth's
inhabitants nnd most of them are used
as food.
"The Inhabitants of South Afrlcn
(I mean the whites, tho Doers), than
whom thero are no more Intelligent
or physically perfect people, hove
been eating most of our zoo animals
since their settlement In Afrlcn, near
ly BOO years ago. Also In tho vast
regions of lco thero are millions of
edible animals, whose flesh, with prop
er cooking, Is Just as nourishable and
Just as palatable ns any other meat.
"On the great Ice continent pt the
bottom of tho world sea elephants,
sea lions, seal, penguin, etc., havo
bred unmolested for -thousands of
years. They are edible, I know.
"In t h e Robertson
Cole expedition to the
bottom of the world I
particularly made n
study of these animals
as a possible food sup
ply. I found tho vast
lco continent nt our
south lias the greatest
food supply In tho
world. It Is the refrig
erating plnnt that hu
mnnlty will ultimately
turn to with flying
freighters and'1 they
j&tD ormsrj&rDmzArrcu?-.
win come ns sure ns
the flying machine Is here carrying
the meat from the cold south to tho
civilized distributing centers.
"Thero will bo.no dlfllculty In tap
ping this great supply from the great
freezer where Ice and storage will
cost nothing. This mny seem remote,
but In my opinion It Is not. Because
of the r-ipld growth of the automobile,
telegraph and flying mnchlne, I expect
to see the tlmo of great flying freight
ers thnt will solve the problem of the
distribution of foods.
"I shnll nrrange, before I return to
the south In n few days, to have a
quantity of the food thnt wo used In
the south sent to the United States.
Some of the medical societies here
have eaten sea elephant, penguin,
seals and sea lions and pronounced
them first class foods.
"I would like you to nrrange with
one of the big educational Institu
tions, such ns Harvard, to give a din
ner to n number of scientific men and
students of humanity's needs, using
this meat on the menu. This would
bring before the people Immediately
the desirability of Investigating the
antarctic food supply and familiarize
them with tho Idea of eating tho food
thnt I know from experience enn he
recommended.
"When I reach Chllo I perhaps shall
read In tho paper something that you
have done along this lino; nt least
I hope so.
"With best wishes, yours,
"ERNEST SHACKLETON."
Eating sen clephnnts Is only n step
farther thnn wo have gone nlready.
Arctic explorers havo lived on seal
meat and thrived. VllhJalmur Sle-
fnnsso-i achieved lasting fame by prov
ing to the world that n civilized man
can penetrate tho polar regions, ;olng
light and living "off the country," sub
sisting on tho nnlmnls ho can sccuru
by gun nnd trap. Whale meat has
been tried and found excellent on the
Pacific coast. The United States gov
ernment Is Introducing tunny strangn
kinds of fish ns first-rate food Includ
ing sharks and stlng-rays and dogfish,
As n mntter of fact, our present
food likes and dislikes aro really large
ly psychological. Tho flesh of u young
dog Is good meat In every sense of the
word If you only think so. Veteran
blg-gnmo hunters swear that the most
toothsome nnd most nourishing meat
on earth Is that of tho big cats. TIiosr
who havo eaten It say that n rattle
snake Is as good ns nn eel. Vernon
Bailey, chief -field naturalist of tho
United States biological survey, says
In "Wild Animals of Glacier National
Park" that the mountain rat's flesh
Is "as dellcato and delicious ns that
of quail or any of tho game nnlmnls"
and that ground squirrels and pocket
'gophers nro very good eating.
All things are relative. The man
who has never known the killing thirst
of the desert has yet to learn that ho
can drink with great pleasure' several

spring wnter. The man who has nev
er been famished lltlo Imagines how
delicious Is raw, tough seagull. The
man who has had plenty of beef, mut
ton nnd pork nil his life would be sur
prised to find how quickly tho pangs
of" hunger would drive him to almost
uny substitute to sustain life.
Dr. Owen II. Ames, the Boston psy
chologist, declares that likes and dis
likes of foods are "purely psychologi
cal." Becnuse we have been bred for
years to regard certain nnlmnls us
edible, nnlmnls without lhat class
have never been thought of ns a possi
ble supply of food.
In South America (he octopus Is
used ns tho hne of a particularly
appetizing soup. The simple fact that
It does not appear disgusting to us
until we know Its Ingredients proves
ttint our taste In foods Is purely
psychological.
In Australia among the English
speaking peiple. who are very much
like ourselves, Hie mutton bird :s t.seil
ns one of their finest dishes. The mut
ton, bird Is very much like the penguin,
of which there Is nn enormous supply
In the antarctic regions.
McMillan, the explorer, says that
seal food Is splendid. Not only Is It
very nourishing, but .It Is nKo sur
prisingly palatable. Among the Eski
mos seals' eyes nie considered n tfcil
delicacy, but the fact that they are
eaten by Eskimos or that they aro
seuls' eyes does not make them nny
less a food for the white man.
In tho last few years many men
hae been forced to realize that food
Is food, no mntter what Its special
name might huvo been. In n country
where n certain animal Is rare or
has been brought merely us nn enter
tainment, the people of that countrv
would never regard that animal as a
food. But whero that nnlmnl Is plenti
ful he Is ulwajs used for consumption.
To us, who depend mostly upon
beef, pork, lamb and tho products of
n few other domesticated animals for
our Biipply of meat, this seems strange
and tinuaturnl. But considering the
fact that most nnlmnls nre for the
most part made of what they eat, we
find that the menu of many of the mil
njls wo keep In our pnrks and cir
cuses Is exactly "the same as that of
our domestic nnlmnls. So, Dr. Ames:
believes, the question of tnste In fopi!
Is purely psychological.
At the south polar regions there
havo been breeding unmolested for
centuries many kinds of fon'd animals
and birds with natural envlronmen'
to keep them always In perfect con
dition. To give some Idea of the al
most limitless food supply In the nnt
arctlc seas, the Endurance had to liter
ally plow through n sea of seals.
So much In earnest Is Sir Ernest
Shackleton aver his project that ho
promises to come to tho United Stntes
in Its promotion, upon his return from
Uls expedition to the antarctic.

vouno ii:opli: and adult topic
True Hiiccchs nnd How to Win It.
The death of Saul lay open to David
the path to die throne. This would
bine rejoiced the heart of many, but
Dahl was sad. Instead of reward be
ing given to the sliijor of Saul, quick
engeanee was executed upon him.
I. David Made King Over Jud&h
(2:1-4).
Me knew full well thnt the Lord by
the baud of Samuel had anointed him
to be the successor of Saul. He had
learned the essential lesson which tho
School of Pi evidence was designed to
leach, namely, that the position now
open to him wns no easy one to fill.
Ills exile and sufferings gave lilm self-
control, fie hail the good sense to
know that promotion to the throne did
hut bring "harder duties and multi
plied perplexities." He threw himself
upon Cod and asked for guidance, lie
rendered Instant obedience to tho
Lord's imswer. If wo are to enjoy
find's fellowship and blessing we must
render quick obedience. He made a
right beginning, therefore fiod pros
pered hliii. When he renched Hebron
the men of Judab came and anointed
him king over them. Thus a part of
the nation recognized him ns king nnd
ratified the work which Samuel did
many years before. When David went
up he took with him nil who had been
with him In exile and suffering. They
are now shnrers with him In the king
dom. When David's great son, Christ,
shall enter upon his glorious reign,
those who have been faithful to him
In his rejection shnll reign with him.
"If wo suffer we shall also reign with
him." (II Tim. 2:1U); "To htm that
overcometh will I grant to sit with me
In my throne, even ns I also overcame,
and am set down with my father in his
throne." (Itev. 3:21).
II. David's Behavior Toward the
Men of Jabesh-Gllead (2:4-7).
The men of Jabesh owed much to
Saul (I Sam. 11), and they showed
this recognition of debt by mnklng a
daring dash to rescue his body from
the Ignominious exposure nt Bethle
hem. David's act of sending men to
Jubesh with a messngo of good will
for their nffectlonnto remembrance ol
Saul Is an exhibition of his noble, gen
erosity. Ills love for the tinforttuinte
king survived all tho injuries which
he suffered nt his hands. He forgave
nnd forgot them nil. This was an net
of political shrewdness as well ns u
generous one. In fact the only policy
which proves effective Is thnt which
proceeds from n generous benrL He
dertly follows this generous com
mendation with a sollcltudo for the
men of .Inbesh to transfer their loyal
ty to himself, since he Is now their
legal king. Since Saul Is now dead,
he urges tliem to be valiant for him. In
view of the civil war which was to
follow he knew It would require vali
ant men to stand by find's king. This
nppenl to be valiant Is needed now, foi
we are all called upon to tnko side'
between find's iippnlnled king, .lesus
Christ, nnd Satan, the pretender to the
throne. May Christ's appeal result In
making us faithful nnd valiant for
him.
III. The Dual Kingdom War Be
fiveen the House of Saul and the House
of David (2:8-1:12).
This period of civil war lasted seven
nnd a half years. Most of the tribes
of Israel clung to Ishhosheth, Saul's
son, whom Abner had proclaimed king
nt Muhnnnlm. Feuds continued be
tween tho rival generals. David's
power Increased while that of Ishbos
heth's w lined.
IV. David Crowned King Over
United Israel (f:1-5).
Though the struggle for supremacy
lasted long nnd wns u bitter one, Ah
tier's death and Ishbosheth's assassina
tion put nn end tb David's opposition.
David's behavior during this time grad
ually won for him the conlldence of
the tribes so that they all came to him
nt Hebron and anointed him ns their
king. They accepted his divine right
to rule (v. 3). The reasons for anoint
ing hlin their king were:
1. Do Is their brother (v. 1). This Is
true of Christ our King. Through the
Incarnation ho has becomo one with us.
2. Ho wns their true leader In war,
even In Saul's time (v. 2).
3. IIo was the Lord's cholco (v. 2).
Procrastination.
Procrnstluntlon Is helping tho devil
In retnrdlng righteousness In tho
world. Remember thnt legend of how
he summoned his Imperial staff nnd
offered a reword to the member who
would suggest tho best way to destroy
n humnn soul. Ono sold, Convince
hlra thero Ib no God. Another suld,
Provo thero Is no Immortality nnd no
truth In the Bible. Rut still another
suggested, Convince him that there Is
no hurry about his carrying out lilt
good resolutions. And the devil gavt
that ono the prize. Bishop Tulbot,
