There ore few great personages of the last decade who have not honored him with something of their confidence; Roosevelt In the wilds of Arizona, Goethals In tho heart of the Canal Zone," Woodrow Wilson on the porch at Sea Girt, the silent Colonel House, and mysterious Generals like Wood and Admirals like Sims and Itoduian and Flake. Macfarlane Is an Intensely interesting speaker. FINE FUN—FINE MUSIC Ada Roach and Ruth Freeman Touch High Spots in* Music and Entertainment at Chautauqua f& tt ! ! ! I t h in k i ll NFEÜ HELP FRIEND of mine Jocularly remarked the other day: “ Well, I suppose you'll make your next trip to the Arctic in a submarine." My friend was joking of course, aud yet, astounding as It may seem, there is a possibility that such a polar expedition will be made sometime. You will agree that sub marines travel under water. If so. the matter of the presence or absence of Ice Is a matter of no consequence; at least that is whnt you would Infer. Ou second thought It will appear that the Ice Is reully an advantage. If the water is Ice-free and the gale hap pens to be blowing, tlie boat would have to come up In heavy waves, but It there is Ice in the vicinity, the A ss B m wave» will be small, no matter how heavy the gale. Already there are submarine! which will staDd a pressure of 600 feet of water. A 200-foot depth is com mon. Admiral Peary told me once that he had never heard of ice more than 140 feet thick. This la the maximum*. The average Is much less, of course, even In the so-called "frozen north." The common impression Is that the northlands are frozen solid. As a master of fact, they are covered with Ice floes of various sizes up to a maximum diameter of thirty or forty miles. There are already sub marines which can travel 200 miles continuously at a depth of 200 feet. Such a vessel, therefore, could go snfely under an Ice float five times as large as the largest ewer seen, and come up In the water on the other aide of it. Already there has been Invented an ice-cutting device for use on sub marines. This device was to have been used on a Russian submarine prior to the war. It was capable of cutting through ice 10 feet thick, and remem ber. this was but the first Invention along this Une. Free from danger? Well, hardly, but there Is equal danger traveling on the water in navigation. In my Judgment submsrlne travel In the polar re • ns is less dnngerous than navigation with ordinary ahips. Clearly It 1* • ' ’ angerous than the suggested pi n oi u-Toplnne travel for polar ex p ira tion . As to whether such an expedition will take place I cannot say. To anyone^ however, who has made a careful study of the polar situation and also the sut» marine, the plan seems possible a f realization, at least. n \ » ! a N , Ada Roach aud Ruth Fre» man air iwo f'dk» who can entertain delightfully and have the time of their llv. » d o in g it. Their love o f the work undoubtedly accounts to quite an extent for the enviable place they bold io the entertainment world. It la doubtful If there is a more popular duo ou the platform today.
