The subsequent silence, lasting since the latter part of August, is ominous. The giant twoâ€" engined machine was equipped with several sets ‘of powerful wireless and the fact that nothing has been heard ;from the crew via this medium of comâ€" miunication forcibly suggests that the 'plane crashed on landing or fell into ;open water disastrously. | _ Pilots familiar with Arctic conditions are not very hopeful of the survival of the crew. However, it has been pointed out that the ship carried six weeks‘ provisions and complete equipment for Arctic residence.

Hollickâ€" ‘Kenyon who flew the south pole with Ellsworth, has already made a daring attempt to locate the Russians along the Northern coast of Canada, without success. It is probable that the Rusâ€" sians never reached any point near the mainland, as their broadcasts were suddenly stopped a long way north. Any search extending far into the Arctic would appear to be rather hopeless i under the cirecumstances. ary lengthy stay in the Arctic. The original intention was to fly from Baker Lake, on the west coast of Hudson Eay, to the Cappermine River, then to Great Bear Lake and one south to Edmonâ€" ton. A series of mishaps with the two planes made the party late in starting from the east and eventually, due to the inability of compasses to operate normally so close to the Magnetic Pole, the ships were flown off their courses and gasoline supply was used up. A forced landing on Queen Maud found the machines without enough fuel to even reach Victoria Island across the straits and the party was obliged to settle down to await the formation of firm ice. The MacAlpine party was fortunate in that it made conitact with several families of Eskimos who did, to some small extent. contribute to the rations. However, the natives themselves had On the cheerful sides the thought that the MacAlpine party, lost in 1929 on the Arctic coast near Dease point, existedfor over two months and were eventually able to trek across Camâ€" bridge Bay to Victoria Island, where they made contact with civilization through the Hudson Bay company post wireless and were rescued to a man.

MILL â€" OFFTICE PHONE 709 One skunk camped on a Little Curâ€" rent resident‘s porch and refused to move even for the watch dog. The end of the episode was when the skunk used its protective scent to warm the dog that it was foolish to bother him, and the house owner could not sleep the reâ€" mainder of the night. The skunk then all in its own good time vacated the ‘step and was seen no more The fact that the swamps near town are filling with water is said to be the explanation of the sudden influx of the animals, and judging by reports they yare more plenâ€" tiful than in former years No one has as yet found a suitable remedy, and they will possibly be in town till the cold weather starts them back to their winâ€" ter habitats, when once more it will be safe to take the usual main travelled walks and paths. According to despatches from Little Current, Manitoulin Island, this week, skunks are again invading Little Curâ€" rent and in this invasion hardly a street has been missed according to reâ€" ports. The odorifercus animals are also no respectors of localities or persons, as many have so far found out to their sorrow. little to eat and they were also waiting to get across to the trading post to barter furs What food they had was supplies that had been cached at least one season and the fish was rotten. The white men could not eat it and consequently had to tighten their belts, doling out their own rations and supâ€" plementing them with ground squirrels and ptarmigan, a meagre addition to a starvation diet. Infesting the main streets as well as the highways and byâ€"ways, the last week hnas seen many detours in effect from the main travelled paths when local residents are making their homeâ€" ward way after the show at night. â€" The 1937 America‘s Cup series was. an illâ€"starred effort on the part of Mr. Sopwith. He built a new boat at great expense and brought it and a sister boat to this continent. His arrangements were much more elaborate and costly than those associated with previous 'contests. Yet his beautiful racing yacht not only lost four races in succession, \but was outclassed. The Endeavour I 'became "lost" and the worst was feared on both the outward and return voyâ€" age and both the skipper and the naviâ€" |gator of the Endeavour IT succumbed to illness. The weathering of the fearful Atlanâ€" tic storm by the 1934 challenger breaks the spell of bad news and removes the dread that a much more shocking loss had been suffered. The Russians are probably not so lucky. The chances are that, if alive, they are far out on the ice. It will be an epic march to civilization if they can ever accomplish it. But strange things have been done in the Arctic before now; these intrepid fliers may do the impossible and in a year Oor so may emerge from ‘the white silence. Citizens Make Detours at Little Current Again General Rejoicing at the Safety of Endeavour 1 ‘(From Toronto Star) The safety of Endeavour I and the score of British seamen who are sailing on her is a cause for rejoicing. There seems to be no question now that ship and crew survived the 105â€"mile hurriâ€" cane two weeks ago that broke the hawser connected with the boat that was towing the Endeavour, They are still hundreds of miles from their home port, but it is unlikely that they will meet with further serious adventures.

From the Accurate Examination of Your Eves Halperin‘s Jewellery Store sOUxD PHILO®SOPHY CONsULT According to the bureau of standards, black on yellow, New York‘s colour combination this year, comes out an easy winner. Green on white is second on the list, blue on white third, white on blue fourth, and black on white fifth. I sought in vain for orange on blue. Maybe it was there but I couldn‘t see it! As you no doubt know, England does not change the colour of her number plates each year as is the custom on this side of the Atlantic. I think this annual colourâ€"changing idea of yours is excellent. It means that one can tell at a glance whether or not a motorist has paid his license for the current year. In England when you buy a car you purchase a number plate with it and your car and its number plate reâ€" main bosom friends who never part. There the police have more of a job ascertaining whether or not you are up to date with your registration payâ€" ments.. They have to scrutinize a little round disc that is affixed to your windâ€" screen and bears your registration reâ€" ceipt. Car Number Plates in Other Countries I‘m afraid that if one had to pass the English driving test here in Onâ€" tario the new number plates would create a stumbling block. In the drivâ€" ing test over there the wouldâ€"be license holder has to be able to read a number plate 25 yards away. England favours white on black for her number plates (a combination which doesn‘t come among America‘s first five, incidentalâ€" ly) and has had that same colourâ€" double for years and years and years. What was good enough for grandpa‘s runabout is good enough for the latest streamlined Austin! England must be a superâ€"lawâ€"abiding country. Either it is that or the modern motorist in that country is given to ostentation. Anyway, lots of the new cars over there have two big number plates at the back of the car and they are just so easy to read that you couldn‘t get away with anything! The latest design in English number plates is square, with three letters on top and one, two or three numbers underneath, and what with one of these plates on the front of the car and one over each rear mudguard controversies such as the present one in Ontario just don‘t arise. The rear number plates of France and many of the other continental countries are rather good, and I should think they are the best in the world as far as visibility is concerned. In the new French cars the number plate is let into the back of the body and flooded with concealed lighting. Many English cars follow this vogue and I have even seen cars over in Europe which even (By Wallace Rayburn) Ontaric‘s new motor number plates are creating more than a little discusâ€" sion. I do not propose to take either side in The Great Number Plate Conâ€" troversy, but I will mention that I have been looking up the records of the inâ€" vestigation recently instituted by the United States bureau of standards to arrive at just what were the best color combinations for visibilitv New Zealand follows Canada in adopting the idea of having a distincâ€" tive number plate colour each year, and a year or two back there was a controâ€" versy similar to the one we are in the midst of now. But the complainers out there had to eat humble pie, for the colour combination was black on yelâ€" low, which is definitely accepted all over the world as the best combination for visibility. Many of the big London newspapers have chosen black on yelâ€" low for their posters, claiming that their posters catch the eye and can be read at a greater distance than those of their rivals. England‘s Number Plates are Black and White and Big. Automobile associations Of many countries all over the world have adoptâ€" ed the black on yellow combination for signposts. It may seem strange that I mention little New Zealard in this number plate discussion. The average Canadian knows little of even the whereabouts of New Zealand, let alone what its number plate system is. But Canadians may be interested to know that there are more cars per head in New Zealand than any other country in the British Empire. Englard and Canada included. The United States heads the world and New Zealand comes second. New Zeaâ€" land‘s million and a hair people have the carâ€"owning urge very strongly, deâ€" spite the fact that prices of American and British cars are very high and petrol is half a dollar a gallon The number plates in New Zealand| start at number one in the extreme north and work up into the hundreds of thousands on the way down to the south. Ju«t what sort of a fight there is each year to get that number one plate you can well imagine! Each proâ€" vince does not have its own plate as here in Canada. Australia, like Canada, has individual plates for individual states, but England and New Zealand. favours| English Physician Perfects r plates| _ Invention After Years of ig come | Study â€" Human Eye Camera has Lightning Lens has perfected the ‘"human eye camera‘, a lers as true and faultless as can be devised, reports the English publication The People. It is claimed that this lens, conceived and constructed in a small wooden house that serves as living quarters and labratory on the South Downs. will revolutionize every branch of phoâ€" tography and confound optical theories. In his student days the inventor, Maurice James Gunn, who is nearly sevently years old, became dissatisfied with types of lenses, which he found to other defects. He shared the optician‘s admiration for the human eye as the one perfect photographic instrument, and wondered if it would be possible to construct an artificial human eyve that could see. The first pateni was filed in 1892, but in those early days the lens would function only at small apertures. Since then, development of this idea has been constantly in the inventor‘s mind, This year perfection has been achiev.â€" ed, and the lens now operates with the most remarkable results at any aperâ€" After fortyâ€"five years of patient effort ind research, an elderly physicist has it last realized his life ambitionâ€"he aas perfected the "human eye camera‘"‘, i lers as true and faultless as can be jlevised, reports the English publication FUR TRIMMED Cloth Coats New styles with atlractive â€" Fur collars in Red and Grey Fox, Grey Wolf, Saâ€" ble,etc., or Engâ€" lish Tweeds in smart s port swaggers.
