Names Wanted
for Stefansson’s
New Discoveries
VANCOUVER, R Oct. 29. New
names for Arctic lands and seas prob
ably will soon be wanted in Ottawa
as a result of the discoveries of Vi 1
hjalmur Stefansson, the returned Can
adian Arctic explorer. A board of
geologists in Ottawa directs the giv
ing of names to all of Canada's new
found posessions.
Suggestions have been made that
“Stefansson's Land” should be the
name of the group of islands found
by the explorer northwest of Prince
Patrick land. Stefansson, however
says new lands are nove^jiamed aftei
the men who find them.
Another name will be needed foi
what has long been called Prince (lus
! tav Adolph sea, thought to be an arm
of the Arctic ocean. Stefansson found
that the sea wasn't a sea at all, but
Contained the new land he discovered

WOUND NARK
ON SOLDIER IS
A RED CROSS
PARIS. Oct. J!>. Private Jean Four
nan of New York City hereafter will
carry a cross on his hack as a souvenir
of the great war The wound that has
marked him is so unusual that ho is
known at American Military Hospital
No. 1, where he is now convalescing,
as the "Red Cross Man," and doctors.
I nurses and patients have watched his
' case with unusual interest.
Fournan is a member of one of the
{ American regiments recently engaged
in the lighting around Flsnies. He
has been in France since last October,
and went through heavy fighting on
several fronts without a scratch.
One morning a short time ago. just
as his company went over the top,
headed for a Roche machine gun nest,
a shrapnel shell knocked him out. He
had a momentary stinging sensation
and then awoke to find himself on an
American sanitary train from which
4ie was taken by ambulance to the
hospital.
When he was carried to the operat
ing room, the surgeon looked him over
and then called the other doctors to
come and look. The hoy had been hit
by two pieces of shrajmel, one of
which had gone down his hack so
close to iii.s spine, that only a miracle
j saved him from paralysis The other
i had crossed at right angles, leaving
J tile mark of a perfect cross on his
j back.
Fournan has those pieces of shrap
nel in his Red Cross tr< asure bag
| He says they're "lucky pieces" he
! cause they "only left a scar."

| TO OUR PATRONS: |
Si Your attention is called to the matter of your water supply Si
for this winter. Last winter we were short of water, caused
in large part by wastage, due to allowing the water to run IS
continually, to prevent the pipes from freezing.
We have done everything in our power to insure a sufficient sup- !|li
ply for this winter, and we must stop the wastage! There- ||
fore we are hereby giving notice that wherever we find the ;|ji
water allowed to run continually, day or night, we shall im- §j
mediately discontinue that particular service until spring. 1
IS * Si
All accounts are due and payable before the 10th of each month. |i
When we are obliged to discontinue service because of non- |
payment, a charge will be made for the re-connecting of 1
water, light, or telephone. j|
