Says Amundsen, Sailing:
"There Goes One of Finest and Bravest Men That ISver
Lived, Declares Commander: Byrd, Speaking . f or -Farewell
Delegation at Pier :
NEW YORK, July 3. (By Associated Press.) The man
who traded his home for an airship to fly over the norfh pole,
said goodbye to America today. - j :
' The man was Roald Amundsen. He said farewell from the
deck of the Bergens fjord, on which-he sailed for Norway. The
home to which he is going is a tiny villa in the rugged en
virons of Oslo which he sold to help pay for the Norge, the
airship in which he sailed over the top-of the world. Friends
have purchased the home and given it back to Amundsen,
r -.Xiihcoln Ellsworth, sole American member of "the'Norge,
was the last to shake the hand
of the ; famous explorer. At Ells
worth's .side, stood Lieutenant
Commander Richard E. Byrd, who
flew over the north pole in an
airplane a few days, before the
Norge made, the; trip. The three
clapped each other on the back
and said affectionate farewells.
Ellsworth said he would stay in
America for a while.
t "I'm , going' home to rest."
Amundsen said. "Forty one years
ago at the age of 15.. I knew what
I wanted to do during my life. I
wanted to see both poles. I've
seen them. My Job is done. There
are no more places to discover.
There will be no more lectures.
There will be no more expeditions'.
I'm done."
Amundsen spoke words of
praise for Ellsworth and -Byrd,
who had met him on his arrival
from Chicago. ' As if tired from
the rousing reception given Bob
by Jones, golf champion, New
York didr not become vociferous
over Amundsen. He slipped into
Grand Central terminal, heard a
bapd play the Norwegian national
anthem, was photographed and
Interviewed. His comfhg had not
been heralded and he spent less
than three hours in New York.
An official reception committee
greeted him in the name of May
or Walker. Then he was whisked
away to Brooklyn, whence the
Bergensf jord sailed.
At the pier he was greeted by
many of his countrymen, Hans
Fay, consul general of 'Norway,
led the crowd in Norwegian
cheers. Speeches were made.
Pretty women presented him with
flowers. "I may never see Amer
ica again," he said- " I love her
much. She has treated me as
son. You are all my friends."
The ship moved out. The band

Wonderful Sight When Lava
of Hawaiian Volcano
Sweeps to the Sea
John M. Watson, Jr., is now a
resident of Hilo, Hawaii; 320
Iliahl street. He was born at
Turner, Or., and is a son of Mr.
and Mrs. John M. Watson, well
known residents there. He is the
coach and a teacher of the grades
in the public schools of Hilo. He
was the coach at Silvertqn two
years ago. and principal of the
public schools at Maupin last year.
He wrote a letter to Bis parents,
received - some time ago, telling
about the. lava flow of Mauna Loa,
remembered as one of the big
pieces of. world news of a few
weeks ago- by all newspaper read
ers. Mr.. Watson wrote In part:
"I am. going to write you only
a few lines of newsy news, as I am
dead tired for sleep. I have been
up all night three nights thie
week (the date of the letter- was
April 17), looking over the great
est wonder in Hawaii, and in all
the world at this time, the lava

I am enclosing Bome more recent

100 miles from Hilo over terrible
roads and is a good 1 0-hour drive

around the island.
"It makes a noise like thunder

thing that millions of people will

me. There is no .danger, so do not
worry. I wish you could be here
and enjoy it; as every one does." ' J
Special Newspaper Pages
The newspapers of Hawaii made
a great deal over tae sava flow.
Special pages , were printed, and
special-editions Issued. The Hilo
Tribune-Herald j of April 1 5 had
a page of advertisements grouped
around a picture of the mountain.
One legend read: 'More Lava,
More Tourists; More Tourists Bet
ter Times." The following word
ing appeared in the 'center of the
page:
"Volcano House, April 10. (8
a. m.) Prof. Thomas A. Jaggar
stated in his latest bulletin that
he expected that this flow would
be greater than that of the Alika

He stated, that he expected One

that the flow would continue to
