F.ve.rest. enith's loftiest pcakf Will the thin ether of such an alti tude forever keep this awesome pin unele inviolate against man? Dr. Frederick A.

' They plaifttn, penetrate to the bne of KvereHtflhioiigh northern India, across thoNeiml iuncles and thence To"tfie hfftiler of Tibet, where the un- climbed "monarch of tho Himalaya pierces the Asiatic Skies. "I am not certain that man cnu live nt that altitude," declared Dr. Cook, just before his departure, "but wo nre going to make u patient and system atic effort to scale the mountain, nevertheless. "It hns never before been nttempt cd, standing today as the last gient gco"rnphio prize of modern discovery, although ascents of some 20,000 feet have several limes been made in the neighboring Himalayas. 'The extremely light nlinnspherifi pressure at 20,000 feet is undoubted ly the greatest obstacle. What other problems we shall encounter I ean only guess. "Possibly tho conquest of Mt. F.v crest will approximate in difficulty and hazards n polar expedition. It should not, however, consume more than three or four months, if the as cent can bo made at all. "Certainly it is a regal prize to try for, and wo nre confident of success." In the Nepal jungles, which must be traversed to reach Fverest, the Cook parly expect to shoot and pho tograph elephant, rhinoceros, tiger, leopard, wolf and monkey, ns well as rare tropical birds mid reptiles. Mo tion picture records of the entire trip will be brought buck, if plans are realized. "It is strange," commented Dr. Cook, "that the 'roof of the world.' where, in the dawn of history, was rocked the cradle of the human race, should be the last of eaithV invxtcr ies o challenge discovery and explor ntion." Tho return to New York will li made by way of northern Africa and the Mediterranean, nntiire study and scientific research being planned along the entire route.
