That torrent of words is out of harmony with the great silences and the terrible utterances of the It is inadequate to South Pole. the men whose deeds we see. few quiet comments were all that was necessary. But despite this blemish the film is a great pictorial record. The little human touches are well chosen and one is carried into the life of a band of very gal lant and, despite hardships, very happy gentlemen.
Curiously enough the film was severely criticised in the London papers. It is difficult to see the reason for this. There was a sug gestion that the memories of Scott, of Oates and Amundsen were slight- ed. There is not the least, ground for this.. On the contrary very gonerous tribute is paid throughout to those men who faced the same hardships without the equipment provided for this expedition. One can only say that Admiral Byrd, and his comrades, are in the truc succession of the gallant band of Polar explorers of all nations.

At first I thought I should never be well again, but when I heard that my brother was taking Phosferine I thought I would iry it, and in the first two or three days I began to feel better, and I sleep better, which is a blessing at my age, as I am 71 and people say I am a wonder for my age.
