Prospector Tells of
Real Cold Weather
The recent news story from Alaska
about the reindeer freezing in a cold
snap of unusual severity has been
verified by naturalists, who say that
animals of the kind used by Santa
Claus before the advent of the air-
plune frequently froze to death when
feed was scarce and they lost their
protective rolls of fat, But now comes
the Seattle Times with a story of
another color, It concerns the late
Dan Patterson, famous gold musher,
who in 1900 experienced weather that
might be called really chilly. Dan's
supply of kerosene ran out one day
and be mushed into camp for a sup-
ply. On the way back to his cabin
It became so cold the kerosene froze
solid—so solid he put it in a gunny
suck and toted it home on his back.
He left the chunk outside his cabin
and during the rest of the winter
when Dan wanted a little ofl he just
went out and chopped a chunk off the
block and melted It down.

as to certain statements which he
alleged | had made in one of my
books. He took the other side and
argued fluently for ‘his points
“l don't believe what you say; 1
think. you are wrong in your con-
clusions.”
“Well, what are my conclusions?”
I inquired, for it began to dawn upon
me that Higdon was more than a lit-
tle vague as to what I had been try-
ing to elucidate. He hesitated, and
stumbled in his attempt and got
rather red in the face.
“When did you read my book?’
I asked finally, “and how carefully
did you do it?”
“I've never read it at all,” he final-
ly confessed. “I heard some of the
fellows talking about it, and 1 formed
my opinions from what they said.”
I laughed, afd Higdon’s method of
forming a snap judgment from few
data is not uncommon.
Brown makes no secret of the fact
that he doesn’t put any faith in the
Bible either as history, literature, or
as the basis of a religious faith. He
laughs when anyone cites the serip-
tures as authority for anything. He
talks flippantly about it but with an
assumption of thorough conversance
with its contents. Now the truth is
that Brown has never read the Bible.
Excepting for a desultory aequaint-
ance with its general external appear-
ance and the recollection of some
scattered verses which he learned as
golden texts during his brief acquaint-
ance with Sunday school he knows

the puzzle, which may or may

Visitors were able to detect
the slightest noise made by a
goldfish as it swam around in
its medium, which is noted for
its lack of privacy. Detection
was made possible by the prin-
ciple of radio control.
