ROSEBURG, OREGON,
FINDING WORK
, When the Klondike and Alaska "were opened, it was said
that the last frontier of civilization had been crossed. When
Roosevelt explored the Amazon and discovered the River of
Doubt, it was proclaimed again that this was tho last fron
tier.' When Madame Noel crossed the Himalaya mountains
and penetrated the holy city of Lhasa, it was proclaimed
again this was the last frontier. ; . .
Both poles, had in tho meantime been reached, the Sa
hara had been crossed by automobile, clothes of a sort had
been put on the South Sea islanders, Siberians were buying
flivvers, Siam had an American college professor for finan
cial adviser, and radio sets in southern Rhodesia were con
versing regularly with Schenectady. On the whole, it ap
peared that man had whipped the insects and his Satanic ma
jesty, and could call the world his own private oyster.
All this last frontier blurb,
been mere rumor and guesswork,
rainbow's end, seems to be' made of clastic. It stretches even
beyond the infinite limits of imagination, ,, ,,

- fly over the south pole, circle South Amprica, fly into the
heart of the Amazon jungle, have a look at the interior of
Arabia, and then hop over Mt, Everest, ,
- This last expedition is perhaps the most daring flight
that man can conceive today, though it is not beyond possi-
bllity. Every attempt to scale Mt. Everest, 29,000 feet above
sea level, has met with failure. Airplanes have reached
greater altitudes, Lieutenant Macready having reached 39,
000 feet in this country, and Callizo of France having reach
ed 41,000 feet.: These altitude records prove that flying over
the highest mountain in the world is possible,' and should
Commander Byrd undertake the expedition, he will no doubt
meet with success. : '' ..
But man in his colossal conceit need not think that fly
jng over Mt. Everest will mark the crossing of an ultimate
frontier, leaving nothing more for explorers, to do. : A flight
over this five-and-a-half-mile hump on the earth's surface is
'but a preliminary trial flight for a hop to the moon or one
of the neighboring stars. . That Commander Byrd will live
to see such star flights completed is open to doubt, but it
takes a large calibre demagogue to say that it will never be
done.. -(.,. ., .
Frontiers stretch out into interstellar space for millions
and millions of miles, and future generations of explorers
" have more to worry about than Columbus had in the days
when the world was flat. ;

motion that bids be called for, but

A similar position was taken by

Kozer seconded the motion. 1
Governor Patterson r e b it lied
them by remarking: "Let's not
act like a lot of boys." Ho
fused to put the motion.
. "I object to making the, normal
school a test of the state's, building
policy,'' suid Bragg. ,
"We aren't," Kozer replied. "We
did that yesterday when tho board
of control downed the nurses' home
at the stale hopital."
"Sure, we declared our policy
yesterday,' tho governor said.
Miller then withdrew his motion
that bills be called for and Kozer's
resolution was discussed at length
before It was finally whipped in
to form that satisfied everybody.
Prior to taking up the question
whether the school should be built
the board adopted plans for the
normal school building.
Tho implication of the Kozer re
solution is that the board should
awuit some official information aa
to how far reaching the recent su
premo court opinion is. There Is
still a possibility, that the state
board .may ask a rehearing of tho
Pedcrsoii case.
