Then he will go south to look for a "ship" to enter the non-stop races from Los Angeles 1 to Chicago this fall. He expects to re-enter the air mail service but Just now lie's a boy looking for a Job.

He said that one can go out in an airplane on a quiet afternoon and see more territory than the old timers did by spending a summer with a dog sled. "We would go up C000 or 6000 feet and see for more than 100 miles on each sldo of us." he said. "We would go for several hours at the rate of 100 miles an hour, so you see how much territory we covered. In Peary's time they were lucky to go ten miles a day. . "I remember once coming back from the base lino flight when we t;aw the Rockefeller mountains more than 130 miles away." "What do you consider the most outstanding achievement of the ex pedition?" was the first question of the Interview. "Well, I suppose the great scien tific discoveries would be first." he replied slowly, "but the public thinks tho polar flight was the most dra matic feature. But to me the great est thlg was the way the program was followed out In practically every detail that Admiral Byrd planned weeks before we itTte4 " Valuable Pain Obtained Notable data for weatner men of tho southern hemisphere were col -I Our washing- won't TAKE THE CURL Out of your hair MAIN 56 STANDARD LAUNDRY CO.

It Is the breed ing place for the southern storms, and the region Just north of the An tartlc circle is one of the story on the globe. "Admiral Byrd was most thorough In his planning for the trip, und we had every possible supply that we wanted, with the possible exception of Ice cream sodas," laughingly de clared Lieutenant Smith. "There never really any suffering nt all un less you can call a little hard work a hardship. "During the 14 months we were on the Ice I gained quite a lot in weight but have lost a good deal of it since getting back. Four or us cut out a gymnasium in the ice. and we en Joyed ourselves there nt 65 degrees below aero more than I ever did In any. other gym. We hud boxing, weight lifting and other stunts. While we didn't exactly box in B. V. D.s we were lightly dressed. We also went In for skiing a great deal. - "There was no sickness and no deaths on the trip, "Hot a cose of measles or mumups developed. While the cold was terrific wo never were uncomfortable.

Smith also paid high tribute to other members of the party, including Cap tain Alton Parker, who made the famous eastern flight when the Marie Byrd mountain range was discovered. Many thousand square miles of new territory was discovered by Captain McKlunon, who carried a camera that took a continuous photograph as it was flown across the eternal snows. The antarctic is a glacial re gian. Lieutenant Smith explained, and the land-ice has no animal life of any description, neither animal, plant or human. ' In the good old summer time down that way seals and whales cavort about in nearby waters, while fun penguins flop about. But they hide away when winter comes. The near est life, wild or otherwise, to the ex plorers was New Zealand, only 2500 miles away. Very valuable minerals were dis covered, bu the Cove. Ore., boy says If u mountain of pure gold had beon discovered it would bo useless, for It would cost more to get it out than the thing would be worth. New Territory Discovered "The great results of the expedi tion were the great masses of scien tific facts collected," the visitor said. "You know, scientists want facts, no matter what they are about. They collect great masses of facts, then after they get them they use them for something. So in this respect, we were good. "Then we discovered a great deal of new territory; that Is, new to the world. We found mountain ranges, valleys and snow plains that will appear on the new maps. But we didn't find any trace of the supper drift air currents that were supposed to start north from down there." Lieutenant Smith established the all important Queen Maude base from which Admiral Byrd and com panions made the flight to the south pole in the airplane Floyd Bennett. 'I did not make the flight to the pole," said Smith, "the closest I got being 300 miles. I tested the Floyd Bennett ship for the flight, making every possible test that could bo given a ship. The base proved a most Important factor in the flight. Three Heseued by Plane "I also flew the plane that rescued Trofessor Gould, Bernt Balchen and Harold June." But. of his own adventures the 0-foot-4 lieutenant didn't volunteer a word. He Isn't writing a book, has no lecture tour in view and wants to get a rest. He was in uniform when he arrived and wore the ribbon of the rarest decoration given by the United States government, the dis tinguished flying cross. And Smith wants to see. his old friends. He hasn't been here since 1917. , The boys and girls of Cove will find happy friends awaiting them in Dean Smith and his more happy mother. f" Sparrow Hat Many Song One song spnrrow may liavo ns many lis 20 different songs,' snys Nature Magazine, ouch as much Ida own exclusive, property ns though copyrlvht, ISul nil of these, as well ns the sons of nN other hour spar-, rows, have cerlain, qualities that procljiim that the singers belong to Unit species and no, other. . ; J;For, Homo Study The national homo study rounell Is Ibe handing U;roimr of tho out standing correspondence schools and several resident schools under fair-play stnndards in protect am bitious people from deception and Imposition, and constantly tn ad vance the standards of. home study schools.
