ed since the renewal of the siege of the South Pole. Shackleton will attempt no land excursion, but will circam navigate the Southern Continent in a vast, irregular circle, picking up in his cruise B series of diminutive islets which hold the key to the geological connection between the ocean beds and the environ- ing masses of Africa, America, and Australia. Most of these tiny islands are mere specks set in the midst of turbulent seas. It may be that land. ings are impossible, but if the scien- tists of the expedition can be pat jashore. their investigations into the structure and the fauna and flora of those isolated patches of dry land should vidd information of the high- est value and interest to the world of science.

A more examing test of the qualities of the Quest" will come when the little „Empress of]Russin | ship beads southward for the Antarctic Circle in an attempt to uncover the great segment of the Southern Con- tinent between Queen Mary Land and the Weddell Sea. Of the Enderby" "Quadrant," as it was named by the) late Sir Clements Markham, little or nothing is known In an area some 13,000 miles long, only one speck of

fand has been seen. It was sighted: some ninety years ago by the intrepid John Biscoe, shipmaster in the employ of Enderby Brothers, shipowners, of London, a firm who encouraged their captaine to combine the duty of ex- ploration with the basiness of sealing. Shackleton will endeavour to unveil the whole extent of the Quadrant by a skilful working of the "Quest"among the pack ice that guards its coasts. It is a bold endeavour, replete with possibilities of sudden danger from bergs, icefields, and blizzarde.
