And outside his hut will rage the most violent weather known on this globe — blinding blizzards, wind screaming at 150 miles an hour—and 80 to 90 degrees below zero, ft is one of the most amazing feats ever at tempted. 1 am praying tor him, that he will not get a sprained ankle or—well, any of the other terrible things that could happen to him. We expect to be in touch [with him by radio at all times. | Here we have plenty to do preparing for the great exploits we hope to accomplish from next October to February. There is a never ending variety of work going on ,daily. Albert Eillfsen, of Tromsoe, Norway, is building new dog sledges. Vernon Boyd, of Turtle preek. Pa., is installing a winddriven generator on top of a sixtyfoot tower (and he’ll have lots ot wind to run It). Dr. Poulter, of Dunedin, N. Z., our leader here, is working all the time, mostly mak Ing cosmic ray observations. William C. Haines, our meteorologist from Washington. D. C.. is constructing a weather observatory Dr. Louis Potaka, our new New Zealand doctor, is arranging the Isick bay (which is sailor-man talk [for hospital). Ed Moody, of Tam|worth, N. H., is making dog harness. [Finn Ronne, from Pittsburgh, is showing his Norwegian skill in ^tending sklis, (which I’ve learned to pronounce “sheez”)-. Clay Bailey,

radio man, from sun-kissed Brawley, Calif., is tinkering with the electric generators so 1 can get these stories out to you people in the club better. Kenneth Rawson, our young Chicago navigator, is repairing and adjusting his instruments. The archeologist, Walter Lewisohn, of New York, one of our 13 scientists, is snapping everything in sight with a camera. Linwood Miller, of Highland Park, 111., official sail maker, is repairing our

wind proofs.

LeRoy Clark, from Cambridge, Mass., and his pal, Stephenson Corey, from Winchester, Mass., are digging boxes of food and clothing out of the snow and parking them properly. One of the boys from New Zealand. Bernard Fleming, is constructing a big new snow melter for our drinking and cooking water. Francis Dane, of Lexington, Mass., has the sweet Job of cutting up seals for dog food, while his buddy, Alfonso Carbone, of Cambridge, Mass., our cook, works until midnight, every night, baking our bread, and the rest of the time cooking our other food. Bill McCormack, of Lansdowne, Pa., pilot of our Kellett Autogyro, is trying to keep that trusty and valuable machine from being burled completely in the snow. 1 am as busy as a bee preparing orange colored tanks of Tydol gasoline and Veedol motor oil for the automotive campaign beginning next October against the mysteries of this strange land and, in between, our regular jobs, Comdr. Noville, Capt. Innes-Taylor and 1 are constantly working to dig our swell new hut out of the snow. No monotony, no heavy time on our hands. Lots of exercise, lots of health. Not a sickness germ within 2300 miles of us. It’s a great life, no fooling! Just got a radio from the club secretary that he has received a new supply of the beautiful big working maps which the club la sending, free, with membership cards, to everybody who Joins the club, for which there Is no charge whatever. To Join one of the world’s most interesting organizations, without obligation of any kind, simply send stamped, selfaddressed envelope to C. A.

Chicago. This remarkable feat was made possible by Western Union engineers who wished to demonstrate that It is not only possible to wire written communications and money, but also to telegraph music. A selecting device, known as the “Telemusicon," Is attached to the carillon at Chicago. The Telemusicon is operated by electrical impulses travelling to it over the telegraph line. At the sending end, a midget two-octave piano keyboard is fastened directly to the keys of an ordinary telegraph typewriter. Thus as the musician presses a key of the midget piano, a telegraph signal Is transmitted which causes the big carillon at Chicago to play
