-SIGHT-SEEING ́IN- SEA'S DEPTHS
(Continued from Paje 6.) some of the tiny finial shreds of bone, or else they are too small tu be found in that way, but under this new process the entire struc ture energes.
The question on ovory visitor's lips is: What is the importanco of 'all this effort? Why should Dr. Beobe forsake his New York studio, through which famous folk are continually coming and going? Why all the risk and research? Why try to open up these sub- terranean waters which may for some time still be their own possession before tourists are able to buy tickets for the ocean floor?
Ask members of the expedition and you are apt to be as wise after as before. "No value whatever," xeems to be their stock reply to what they plainly regard as useless question No. 997,463,497. If the world cannot understand the scientist's search for abstract truth, his enthusiastic probing for facts, his hellof in evolution, then the scientist has no time to bother. The exact task which the Beeber expedition has set itself is to study the fish of a volcanic island Ilke Bermuda, from the little' follows which wiggle their fins in tide pools up to those grent dark shadows in the depths which have not yet been wholly revealed by the bright beam from the bathysphere.
If he had all the money for svilentile research which he want. ed, Dr. Beebe thinks he would never write another book, never, give another lecture. The whole expedition is fascinated by their efforts in this particular place. It is their zest for their work which enables the scientists to curl up, two at a time, In the four-and-a-half fout dimensions of the bathya- phere, to endure one position for hours at a time, to take bangs, and to face danger. At all times, Dr. Beebe says it is like sitting the wrong way of Д side anddle, scrunching along, but never mind. Ing the bangs because otherwise, "one would be ait of a jitter over little whatnots."
One of my visits happened to take place the day after a descemi had bech made under difficulties. 1 was told that the local reporters had only had "a skim of the truth." that no one ever will be told just) what happened," and that "already we have forgotten it." A very wholesome attitude for other folk as well as for explorers.
