Byrd nnd his com? panlons today stood face to face wit)) the vast unknown of the Antarctic they set out to explore. In a wireless message to Curtis D. Wilbur, secretary of the navy, through the New York Times, the .St. Jyouu> Post Dispatch and Associated newspa pers. Commander Byrd announced the arrival of his ship, the City of Xew York, a t the great mysterious ice barrier which drives its wedge Jnto the continent of ice and snow surrounding the South Pole. At the Bay of Whales the party has challenged the towering ice cliff of the barrier that stands sentry on tlie last frontier of geographical exploration, 2,400 miles beyond the last outpost of human habitation. From this great ice-capped continent of 5,000,000 square miles. Corain nnner! Byrd and his scientists hope, with the aid of airplanes to wrest secrets which will add to mans knowledge of the globe upon which he lives. Arrival of the ship on Christmas Day brought the explorers to theocene of their adventure in what is mid* summer a t the “bottom or tne world,” when milder temperatures and less unfavorable weather offer the; most auspicious conditions for flying’ aDd scientific observation. The first task which faced the party was the landing of their planes and other equipment. This had to be sent up to the top of the ice cliff for estab lishment of a base from which air ex cursions and dog-sledge dashes will be made towards the pole- The base will assume th e aspect of a village of portable houses and workshops carried as part of the $ 1 , 0 0 0 , 0 0 0 equipment of the expedition. Storage for the tons of food and fuel and hangurs for the four-planes in the air squadron of the expedition also m u st be provided at the base. Dog teams will be used to transport supplies to a line of emergency sta tions stretching from the base toward the pole for use by tho fliers if they are forced down. Before his departure last summer, Commander Byrd said he had no in tention of m aking a 'flight across the pole merely as a spectacular \stunt” but that the- planes, equipped with special map-making cameras and other scientific instruments, would be em ployed primarily in observation and gathering data concerning the physical features of the region surrounding the South Pole- The party, which numbers Go, is equipped and provisioned to spend two years in their enterprise,* which in cludes one w inter, when their chief activity must of necessity be safe guarding thc-ir lives and supplies against the onslaughts of the furious storms which sweep the Ice wastes. Around on the South American side another expedition, headed by an aviator, is known to be looking toward a flight over the South Pole. That party is under command of Sir George Hubert Wilkins, who has joined .with Commander Byrd in declaring that neither regards the other as a rival for the first flight across the pole. Two explorers, both using dog-teams on overland trips, have reached the South Pole. They were Roald Amund sen and Capt. R o b e rt F. Scott.

Compared with 1918, this epidemic, so far, lg mild; and yet, In spite of vastly increased ca pacity, tlie Vicks laboratories, are once more operating night and day to meet ihe emergency demand for more and more Vicks VapoRub. Over 432,000 jars ure now being produced daily. b e s t t o u s e V i c k s V a p o R u b 1—AS A PREVENTIVE Several times a day, insert Vicks up the nostrils. Also melt a little night and morning in a bowl of boiling water and inhale the steaming medicated vapors. This helps to ward off germ- infection. 2—IF A COLD STARTS \ If possible, go home and go to bed. Take a laxative and a hot lemonade. Apply hot, wet towe'.s over throat and chest until the skin is thoroughly reddened. Then rub vigorously with Vicks. Spread on thickly and cover with warm flannel. Leave the bed- covering loose, so that the vapors, released by the body-warmth, may be freely inhaled. At the same time, Vicks aiso acts through the skin like a poultice. Repeat this treatment every four hours, eat lightly, and stay in bed until the cold is broken. Complete rest helps the body throw off the cold more quickly. 3—AFTER A FLU ATTACK Physicians advise that the chief danger in this epidemic is after influenza. Then, more than ever, colds, attacking the weakened system, may lead to bronchitis, sinus trouble or oneumonia. This is especially true of children or old folks. Heed even the slight est cold as a danger signal. Vicks is especially valuable here, because it is appied externally, and so can be Used freely, as often as needed, without upsetting delicate digestions, as too much “dosing” is so apt to do. 432,000 Tars Every 24 Hours!
