of an escape from the palace where

Princess Cecelle called in Prince
Oscar, who has many friends among
the noble Russian emigres, and he

Hince Princess Cecelle waa on Inti

than two years before the outbreak
of the war. her acceptance virtually

the young visitor .waa accepted and

Baffin Island: North America's Mystery
WASHINGTON,'!). C, July Baf
fin island, which U. 8. navy planes
of the .YeeMlllan Arctic- expedition
will explore, la one of the least
known regions :Of - North America,
according to the following bulletin
from the National Geographic: So
ciety, the society under whose aus
pices the expedition will work:
"Froblshere discovered the south
ern point of Baffin Island 349 years
ago." says the bulletin. "North
America in, those three and a half
centuries, 'has - acquired civilization
and 120,000,000 people, but scarcely
anything -more m known -of .Baffin
Island than -what the old aea .cap
iat ' nhlmself ' "discovered.
..'v..,-- -'-A Quaint Description.'
" 'Mountayncs, In most parts cov
ered with, snow,' p Froblsher de
scribes the . southern extremlty, " Mod.
ern discovery .confirms .this and hie
further belief (hat. 'the -norther lands
have lesse a'tore of. snow, more.grasa
and more playne countreys.'. His de
scriptions of the birds and Jealn and
ot the .Eskimos, their -character.
Implements ,end boats, fits precisely
with our 1825 estimate. ,.
"Vot Froblsher touched only one
corner or this vast Island and his
successors scarcely more than : the
shore, so a vast virgin field awaits
the .ejcpedltlon'a cameras.
"Baffin Island is the third largest
Island in the world, Australia and
Greenland surpassing It. Resolution
Island, ' off the southern point ot
Baffin Island, Is about on a lati
tude of the southern shpre line of
Alaska and of Oslo, capital ,of Nor
way and .Leningrad. . But Baffin
Islajid Is more than one thousand
miles in length, so Its northern lati
tude la five hundred miles north of
both : Mammertejit, at tho top of
qrandlnavla, and Point Barrow, ' Alas
ka. .Baffin Island has .resisted thor
ough exploration by virtue of ' Its'
vastness. It is larger than anv state
of the United Slates except Texas
and would -moke .almost -four New
EPgiands. .
Jtolan of tiGrent lakes;"
"A luke nearly . large as Ontnrlo
is one of the Island's features. Ans.
mojkjuak, "the great water' In Es
kimo language, is 120 miles lone-
and 40 miles wide. It Is, however.
only one of the 'Great Lakes' of
Baffin Island. -There are also Tea-
aeyoakjuak Lake and Lake Netsellk.
The latter -may be larger than-Ang-makjunk.
"These lakes offer one of tho few
places for safe water landinaa for
planes to be found anywhere In the
Arctic. ..Floating Ice Is an ever pres
ent annger In the sea but the high
temperatures of the warmed ' lake
water eliminate this hazard. : .
Fish TlirouKh Igloo Floor.
"South Sea Islnnda are aunnosed
to afford a llfo of magnificent case
In contrast with the Arctic, since
there a family can live on the fruit
of three, trues. Baffin Island Eski
mos, however, have improved on this
handy commissary. In the winter
they build their igloos on the lnkes,
cut a hole through the parlor floor
and fish far their dinner. The Es
kimo papulation is placed at 670.
Illvers and lnkes of the island
are woll slocked with fish, notahly
sea trout and speckled trout. Tho
Arctic hare, wolves, and white and
niue foxes are found. The foxes
apparently live on mlco ,of .various
kinds. Kelndeer nro numerous nnd
a few enusk .oxen are believed to In.
nniut the northern section.
"Commnncler Mac.MUlnn believes
that Baffin Island may contain tho
mysterious home of the blue goose.
It is known that, the trumpeter swan
and the common elder breed on
.Nottingham Island, at the mouth of
Hudson Bay, but tho breedlnir around
of the blue geese, whose flying
weugea, hooting across the snrlna
Hy art to 'amtllar to North Anier
lea, " has never been " discovered.
Should this home be discovered, it
I will open up a virgin field for an
mportant ornithological study. ' No
danger .of the planes colliding with
great flocks of frightened . birds Is
anticipated, since similar geese
breeding in Islands north .of Siberia
lose their power ot flight because of
molting during the nesting season.
Mowers and Butterflies Abound.
"For delightful summer climate a
person would not go to the seashore
of Baffin Island, but Inland. Cur
rents bearing icebergs and chilled
by melting ice make the coast. .coot
and .damp. Inland, within the she!
ter ot the rocks.' the sun beats down
for long hours of the- Arctic day.
Brilliant flowers -blossom, butterflies
enliven the warmed rockB, and even
the pestiferous summer files irritate
modern explorers just as much as
tbey did Froblsher,
.."Like the Americas, Baffin Ieland
takes Its - name, not from Ita dis
coverer, but from ,a later explorer,
William Baffin. Buffln. never led
an expedition to Its shores, but his
scientific observations made aa. pilot
on three important ventures into the
'northwest' , earned him the honor
of havln ethe '-great island, as Well
as the big bay between north Green
land rand Baffin Island, numed after
him. His most remarkable .voyage
was with Robert Bylot, sljlp master,,
through Davis strait, now the high.
road to north, Greenland, nnd into
Baffin bay, which had never been
seen by white men before.
'"At the top of the bay. ..Baffin"!
polea down the great declination of
the compass, -the greatest discovery
up to that time. Three' merchant
adventurers of London's rlalto, who
sent this expedition and .many others
to plant the- British flag In new .soli,
are memorialized .fn guide posts to
tho Arctic left by this expedition:
Lancaster Sound for sir James Lan
caster, boundary to Baffin Island on
the .northwest; Jones Sound, farther
north, for Sir Francis Jones, and
Smith 8ound..on which Etali lies,
for Sir Thomas Smith.
A Land of Many Parts.
"Uatrin island Is .virtually a land
of ninny lands. Within its chores
are .-Penny Lnnd Cumberland, Hop
pner Land, Greenwood Land, Cock
burn Land .Fox Land, Prince Wil
liam Land, Milne Land and Meta In
cognita. Soflprnwled out -is the
island with points and promontories
that a succession of explorers dis.
covered vnrlous parts Independently.
With the wish father to the thought,
they .christened their find a -'land.'
Luter exploration has tied all these
diverse 'lands' Into one island, Baf
fin Island.
"it Is easy to guess that Mota , In
cognita, tho ..odd name -for southern
most Baffin Island is tho little Joke
of Queen Elisabeth, for she - be
stowed it. Discoveries were as com
mon as rnln ,ln ther ago when clvl.
liuttlon was first going into high
gear. Ijind bodies sprang up on
maps like mushrooms. 'Queen Bess'
was bored, perhaps, when tho capari
soned and .courtly Froblsher sought
audience to lay his latest find at
her feet.
" 'What manner of lnnd Is thlsj'
she probably asked.
"With an explorer's pride ot dis
covery he undoubtedly told with
fervor of the 'mountnynes ,in most
parts covered with snow.' the absence
of trees, nnd the handful of Eaklmo
Inhabitants. Would her.' gracious
mn4esty choose to iive a nam to
this new found land? Her majesty
would. Thero must hava been a
twinkle In the royal eyea as she
named it Mota Incognita, meaning
'beyond the unkVown.'
"Hut Queen Ellraboth's joke Is still
good nnd not. until Ihe II. 8. navy
airplanes have surveyed it, will Baf
fin jslans be .'beyond the unknown,' "
