THE QUEST BEGINS TWO YEAR JOURNEY; EXPLORER SETS OUT Another fairy story of history has begun. Saturday, Sept. 17, the little yacht. The Quest, on -which Sir Ernest Shacklcton will explore unmapped parts of land and sea in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, left the Thames in London. Many many people were gathered on the docks to wish the explorer a successful voyage. Scouts Hope to Exchange Radio Messages With Quest Boy Scouts in the United States will attempt to exchange radio messages with Scouts Marr and Mooney, the two British Boy Scouts who are accompanying Sir Ernest in his expedition. Eplorer Tells Children His Hopes and Plans Sir Ernest Shackleton has told children in the Christian science Monitor, where he is going and what he' plans to do on this journey or exploration. Here Is his story: "A 30.000-mile trip in the Atlantiv and Pacific, and all sorts of interesting things to be found and all sorts of interesting work, scientific or otherwise, to be done. That is our program for the next two years." This was how Sir Ernest Shackleton began telling about his new expedition so that the children who are interested in the big world may know what it is that: the Quest with the big explorer and the Boy Scouts on board are going so tar to find. "What do we hope to find? Well, a great deal about birds and fishes and trees and rocks that we know exist but which we now will have time to watch and photograph. We are just going to St. Paul's Rocks, j a little island on the equator where; live wonderful birds of all kinds, and there our camera man will get pictures of the birds in their own homes. When we landed in Trinidade in 1901 we saw some extraorrlinarv trees they were petruieu, hut hieher nn was living tree fern, i In these trees we saw big gannetsl
lying down, and nests here and miss rneips has carried on classthere. It will be very interesting es of this kind with much success to find out all we can about these j in other schools.
trees and birds. And even more in-1 teresting perhaps will be the fish! Imagine fishes with heads like pigs! We saw them, and other t bright-colored ones in the little, pools left when the tide went out. , We shall try to find out how long they have lived and the reason for their strange appearance. Laboratories on Board. "On board we are having fine laboratories fitted up and sounding machines, so that we can go right down 30,000 feet into the water to find out about currents and sea life. The Quest is a little boat she is only 200 tons, but made of hardy oak, pine and fir, and her bows are shod with steel. We feel sure or ner. sne wm lane us saiely through, and the men are not only natural scientists but cooks, and every one can manage a ship. Two small Boy Scouts are coming out with us. It will be a wonderful experience. "After Trinidade we go to the islet of Tristan de Cunha (the place that only gets letters once in three years ! and Gough Island, which is (ContintiPd on Page Four) YES, YOU WANt" ft WMR OP sHoe - I STfctNGS MOW TMCN KOVJ UNC OO YOU J THEM CHI JUST VJNUL THEV WtAR our i

RICHMOND,
Varied Subjects in School Art Classes It is always fun to choose one's own subject to draw, or write or talk about some special thing we are interested in, Isn't it? That is what the boys and girls of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades in the public schools are doing in their drawing work, which they have with Miss Florence Williams, art supervisor. They are choosing, as a school group, some one theme related to their geography work or that in some other school subject which they would like to illustrate. Drawings on these subjects will occupy several weeks. Some of these themes have been decided upon. The 4A-5B folks in Miss Bly's room, at Hibberd, will make drawings showing the life of the Indians; the 5A-B's, in Miss Murphy's room, at Warner, will picture life in Alaska, and boys and girls in the 5 A-B grades of Joseph Moore, Mrs. Sellers' room, will illustrate life in the New England states, especially with regard to me mausines, sucn as jumpering J and fishing. 110 SIXTH GRADERS TO DO LETTERING One hundred and ten pupils of the 6Ab nnd 7B grades have responded to Miss Phelps' invitation to pupils of those grades to form a special class to study lettering. Members will be divided into three classes which will meet at 8:30, 9:30 and 10:30 on Saturday morn ings respectively. All pupils in this work will learn the Old Eng lish, the German, and the American lettering. Work will begin as soon as the material for it comes. It was planned, Miss Phelps' announced Monday, to begin class work, Saturday morning, Sept. 24, as she hoped the material necessary for the work would have arrived by that time. This work will without doubt prove very interesting as it will lead to some very absorbing work in lettering if the pupils show themselves equal to such work. GARFIELD PICK-UPS Girls of the 8a Industrial class will begin to serve luncheon to members of the faculty, Tuesday noon, Sept. 28, under the supervision of their domestic science teacher, Miss Boyd. The serving of thet;e luncheons will continue about a month when the school lunch room will be opened. A set of pictures of immigrants arriving in America has been bor rowed from the library by Miss Williams who is showing them to members of her English classes who are studying The Promised Land by Mary Antin. How to make a bed was illustrated in the 8a Gill's Hygiene class, Thursday by Mrs. Graves, teacher of the class. A little doll's bed of brass was used in the illustration. The bed was loaned for the occasion by Maxine Wright, a pupil of Warner school. Garfield girls are planning their big annual camp-fire outing. , No exact date has been set for the gala event yet, but it is expected that it will occur sometime in October. Owing to unfavorable weather, i thp rlianel exercises which were to i have been held Friday, Sept. 16 in i Senior high school were postponed until Friday morning, Sept. 23, for j which date the program announced i for the earlier date was planned.

Cotton Plant Grows at Joseph Moore One of the blooms on the cotton plant which is growing at the Joseph Moore school has reached its growth and bursted. The plant, which was grown by Miss Stafford, who is the teacher for the 3A-4B grades of that school, is a healthy
one and is a source of great atten tion in the school. The children in this room have decided to study cotton everything they can find out about it because they are so interested in their plant. MORE 00 YS-T BOYS SOUGHT NEXT WEEK Unique plans are made for the "Y" membership campaign which is just for boys and which will be put on beginning Thursday of next week, Sept. 29 and ending Monday, j Oct. 3.. Several novel features planned by Perry Wilson, Boys' secretary, will mark the campaign. There are at present over rfOO boys, members of the local associa tion. - WORLD EVENTS in BRIEF How to secure money to meet the great expenses of our country is one of the big problems congress will begin to think about now that the men have returned to their places after their short recess. The revenue bill which has various kinds of taxes which have been proposed to raise the amount of money needed will be thoroughly discussed. One senator, Mr. Smoot, a senator of Utah, has suggested a salestax which plan will probably be discussed in congress. This plan would impose a tax on the sales price of every article that is made or manufactured. The, National Association of Manufacturers has declared itself in favor of Senator Smoot's plan. The conference between England and Ireland scheduled for Sept. 20 was postponed indefinitely because the relations the two countries are to have toward each other have not been agreed upon. Ireland has said in one note to Lloyd George that they should be received as a sovereign state which England will not recognize. On this account the conference was called off. The leader of a large part of Ireland, Eamon DeValera, has in a later note explained that he was misunderstood and that he did not expect England to receive them as a republic. The conference may yet be called. Aristide Briand, the French premier or leader has decided to be present in person at the conference on lessing the nation's preparations for war which will meet in Washing, D. C, on Nov. 11. Thirty-eight men from all parts of the United States, including men who hire or employ and men who are hired will meet in Washington to discuss the nation's unemployment problem in the effort to relieve the condition. The conference will begin Sept. 26. China has agreed to let an United States wireless telegraph company erect wireless stations within its boundaries. Stations will be erected in Shanghai, Peking, Hankow and Harbin which will be cap able of communicating with Japan, i the Philippines, Singapore and the United States. J. H. S.
