BYRD REACHES FIBSTOBJECTIVE South Polar Expedition Is Now 2,400 Miles From Civilization New York, Dec. 27. 3J,R)-Conimand-er Richard K Byrd and his South Polar expedition have reached the first objective in their trip to the bottom of the world. The great ice barrier across Ross Sea. tiie gateway to the South Pole, was sighted Christmas Day and the expedition had reached a point 2,400 miles from the last outposts of civilization. Through the New York Times, the St. Louis Post Dispatch and associated newspapers, Comniander Byrd sent a message to Secretary of the Nav/ Curtis D. Wilbur. “We are thankful and proud to report that we have been able to carry the American flag several hundred miles farther south than It has ever, been," the message said. “It seems fitting that an airplane, that instrument of goodwill, should reach its farthest point south on Christmas Day.” Equipped for a stay of two years in the frozen wastes, the Byrd expedition will endeavor to learn details regarding the unknown regions. The Byrd expedition hopes Io map

and heal the inflamed membranes and slop the irritation, while the creosote goes on to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of the trouble and checks the growth of the germs. Creoniulsion is guaranteed satisfactory in the treatment of coughs from colds, bronchitis and minor forms of bronchial irritations, and is excellent for building up the system after colds or flu. Money refunded if not relieved after taking according to directions. Ask your druggist, (adv.)
