CONQUERING THE POLE
America has again blazed a
trail into the unknown when
Lieutenant Byrd made his spent
acular flight over the North Pole
by aeroplane, a feat which was
held to be impossible to many.
Depending on the point of
view nothing or everything was
at stake. Tlte-pole had already
been reached by P ary some
years before so that glory has
already been taken. Layii g
claim to any land which may lie
around the , olar re*, i ms wouid
seem to be a futile undertaking.
But in View of the fact that
national pride and honor was at
stake witu the numerous expedi
tions wh ch were plann> d he
daring exploit of Lieut, ibid has
liiaeed a great significance and
puts Ameilca in the field of
exploration.
