The old evangelist said in his sermon that sunday morning: “I went in last night to listen to Fridtjof Nansen for about fifteen minutes but I had to stay till he was through.” Then with one of his peculiar outbursts of power he added that if there were twenty-five such men interested in the Christian work,We would soon See a change in the world. There is not ‘ easin found a man who more unsvervingly, almost stubbornly, follows his convictions to their utmost consequences than that arctic explorer. When in the years of ’93 and ’94 the ice west of the New Sibirian Islands did not seem to drift steadily but put his ship back one day what it had drifted the preeeed~ ing one he had his trials. 7~ Could my con- clusions be wrong?

Peary. the attic explorer of those who were supposed to know. from America. said that Nansen's plan was childish fancy. and summing it all up he callcd it a plan of self-destruction. It was utterly impossible to make it a success. These and other discouraging remarks we can read in ldun Library in one of the Forum-volumes where Nansen and Peary each have an article about the proposed arctic expedition. Nansen but overlooked it. He pushed out from shore. accomplished what he of course read it. had proposed. and when he returned in '96 Peary wrote another article in the Forum. in which he reluctantly admitted that probably it could be done anyway.

It has got It was not mere wild speculation when he went up into the po- lar regions to drift in the tight grasp of the polar ice. In the first place. he had been up there in the ice before. In 1892 he had been with a sealer and had suffered hardships in the ice east of Greenland. There he got the idea to cross the inland ice of that country which he did 1888 crossing the glaciers on skies in about a month and a half where nobody had ever traveled before. Consequently he knew something about ice and the life that must be endured in polar regions. But from what (lid he get his idea of drift- ing with the ice accross the polar basin? ()1) that very thing (lid his conviction rest. In 1877 a'ship. the "Jeanette" was caught in the polar ice. It was not 'ke "Fram", built for the ice. and it would easily be crushed when the ice should begin to press from both sides of the ship. The crew of "Jeanette" left the ship and crossed the ice to the northern coast of Asia where many of them froze to death. Only two reached their homes. Two years later it happened that an article appeared in a Scandinavian magazine in which it was stated that remnants of the wreckage of “Jeanette” had been found in the ice on the eastern coast of Greenland. Nansen at once knew where the passage through the ice was to be found. Those planks of "Jeanette" had drifted in the ice accross the polar basin in two years. On the 23th of June 1893 “Fram”. heavily loaded with provisions and equipments steared out of the harbor of Christiania. She rounded Lindesness and followed the western coast. Later in the summer the crew of "Fram" saw Vardoe. the northeastern city of their native land fade away. Eastward they followed the coast of Russia. crossed in a storm the Kara Sea between Nova Zembla and the coast of Asia. ice which pressed on from the north towards There was a heap of trouble with the the coast, but they came through. In one of the small sealing stations on the coast a pack of dogs for the sleds was taken on board. Out in September they rounded Cape Chelin- skin the northern point of Sibiria. East from there they find open sea, and for a whole night w th sail and steam they speed on to the north. The next day. 22nd of Sept. 1893 they meet with the solid polar ice. and a little west of the New Sibirian Islands. according to observ- ation on 78 degrees and 43 minutes north lat, they fasten “Fram” to a large ice»flake. From now on they submit to the ice. The facts are so well known. I wish to rc~ peat just a few. _ On March 14th. 189:). after having re- mained on board “Franl” a year and a half in the solid ice. Nansen and Johansen. one of his crew. left the ship on skies with sleds. provi- sions. two canoes made from bamboo-poles and water tight sail-cloth. and as many dogs as Thev left "Fram" on 8-1 degrees north latitude. and was necessary for pulling the sleds. for almost a month they went on northwards toward the North Pole. On 86 degrees 14 min. north latitude and about 9‘5 degrees longitude they were compelled to turn about. The ice became so rough that it was impossi- ble to proceed with the sleds. ()n the 8th of April they turned south. and the whole summer they kept on walking towards Franz Josephs land crossing over or walking around the many large openings in the ice. Some of the dogs they had to kill to feed the rest. Finally they had but two dogs left. but then in the beginning of August they reached the open sea. 011 Aug. 6th. 1895 they arrived at one of the northern islands of Franz Joseph's Land.

They are now sure that they must be on Franz Josephs Land. but that there should be anybody to help them there is improbable. So they resolve to set out for Spitsbergen where sealers yet might linger for a while even if the yacht which should wait for them there had left. ~~ Could it be done? The question does not seem even to have occurred to the leader of the expedition now. It has got to go, there is no way out of it. At this period however, on the 17th of June. 1896, they unexpectedly meet with the Eng- lish Jackson expedition on Cape Flora. the southern point of Franz Josep's Land. On the 13th of August Nansen and Johansen ar- rived to Vardoe on the English steamer “Vind— ward. On August 20th "Fram" sailed into the haven of Sjervoe if and the telegraph- offices began to clatter from slicer excitement. "Fram" had during the summer forced her way through the openings in the heavy ice and came out a few miles north of Spits- bergen on the 13th of August 1896. On the ‘Z‘lnd of September 1893 it entered the ice west of Kotelnoi. Captain Sverdrup com- manded the ship from the time Nansen left it. This is a brief outline only. The more interesting details would take too much space. They can however be found in the book "Fram over the Polar Sea" which Nan- sen himself and Captain Svcrdrup have written. The story of the Fram-Expeditiou should at least. if nothing more. teach us something in line with the old proverb. “\Vlioever risks nothing will accomplish nothing." That how- ever does not mean that we should rush into dilemmas on wild notions. All undertakings need a sound plan and a thorough preparation. Often it is on these very Preparations that the strongest convictions safely rest in spite of a whole world full of "cold—Water pourers". It is self—destruction. says they. It has got to go. says the, man of conviction. Even if it creeps along slowly it is bound to turn out right in the end. H. 911!le 0/ £170. In the happy years of childhood we had but little understanding of the responsibilities that attend human life. Being ourselves incapable of independent thought and action our princi— pal duty lay in obedience to the precepts of parents and superiors on whom then rested the sacred trust of caring for our welfare. But as time goes on our own personal account- ability increases. We begin to understand that life has its duties and that those duties and obligations are not confined alone to the little family or community of men in which we were reared, but that they extend infinitely They extend to the entire family of mankind. without any discrimination, and yet they do not end there, for unto the mighty further. and exalted Master of created things does man owe his most sacred and inviolable obli- As the great law of God is the law of love. so is also His injunction to every indi- vidual of the human family that they shall love one another. gations. Love is the great funda« mental principle in all undertakings that aim at the betterment of man and glorification of God. It alone in the course of our life is able at the same time to show us our duty and give strenght to do it. Men and women whose life-work is based upon this principle of love are the only ones of whom it can be truly said that they are fulfilling their duties of life. It is not primarily a question of position. natural gifts or the like; it is a question of loyalty to this supreme law of Heaven in all affairs and circumstances that are peculiar to the dilferent positions in life. Everyone. from the ruler of state to the lowliest peasant, from the most distinguished divine to the least conspicuous child of God is under the same obligation: love ye one another. Itgis for young people to remember that it is not by acquiring knowledge and position by which they may appear great and worthy in the eyes of their fellowmen that they are ful- filling their duty towards them, but by learn ing to love them.

Show moreAUEBEBG ECHO 75 Preparation for the competent performance ’of future pursuits constitutes an important part of our duties but it is not alone sufficient to enable us to fulfill our purpose in life. Natural gifts and attainments can aid us in this only inasmuch as they become the ready means by which the loving heart ministers to the welfare of its fellowmen. Such per- sons is what the world needs: men and women who are both willing and able to live and work for the redemption of their fallen brothers. When we look out upon a sinsick world full of unuttemble woe and misery. we realize more fully the graveness of human life. ,Sure— ly serious contemplation of such a sight ought forever to banish from our minds all light and frivolous ideas of life. A correct understand~ ing of the grave duties that attend our lives will be a greater aid to us in leading useful lives than the learning of schools. gr. Chalmers on ficnown. Dr. Chalmers was. beyond question. one of the foremost men of his time in the Scottish Church. Not only in Scotland was he famed as As a pulpit orator he was the great- est. a speaker. but. although he spoke in broad Scotch dialect, his power in the pulpit was “'hen he preached in London. men prominent in science. scarcely rivaled in all England. politics and society were in his audiences. Likewise over all England. whereever he could be heard people came in large crpwds. He wrote also works on astronomy and po- litical economy. of acknowledged merit. This to lend weight to his opinion. Of the popularity and renown which he might have won for himself. he says. that it is "a popularity which rifles home of its sweets: and by elevating a man above his fellows places him in a region of desolation. where he stands a conspicious mark for the shafts of malice, envy and detraction; a pop- ularity which with its head among storms its feet on the treacherous quicksands, has noth- ing to lull the agonies of its tottering exist- ance but the Hosannahs of a driveling gener— ation." G. 11‘ has been said: “Tell me what company you keep and I will tell you What person you are." The same may equally well apply to books" Show me the books you read and I will tell you what thoughts you have.” Books, like company, leaves an impression in the mind on the charaoter. just as deep as words spoken or actions seen. A man that sees his duty and is alive to what is right, does not look for the conse— quences or results. He considers not the prevailing sentimentiof the people, but does his duty as he sees it, and leaves the rest to Providence. One may have to suffer in performing his duty, but this suffering makes characters that will withstand the blows of the world. The performance of duty requires manly courage. A faint hearted man has never attained eminent success, and never will—Manitou Messen- ger. The last issue of “The Seminary” con- tains a well written article on “The Need of Medical Missionaries.” It dwells chiefly on the Madagascar mission, and what our missionaries have to contend with. “Just look at the situation! Our missionaries are at work, founding schools, homes for children, and hospitals in a land where climatic fevers drain the system of its vital— ity, among tribes, where many fatal de- seases are running riot—and yet there is not a physician near to render any aid.” ONLY if there is a divine element in our own souls, are we capable of understanding a divine truth. ~Felix Adler.

Here is an extract: "As to the need of the heathen. who is eloquent enough to describe it adequately? \Vhose pen is fiery enough to arouse Christendom in general, to sympa- thize with and hasten to the rescue of these who sit in darkness and the shadow of death? \Ve who are livng in a civilized state. infiu< enced by Christianity. can have but a faint idea of what it means for a people to be ruled by the devil. the sworn enemy of the human race. As the long tales of woe are related to us by the missionaries, can our hearts remain untouched? Can we turn a deaf ear to the Macedonian cry "Come over and help us?" Can we have the mind of Crist. and not shud- der at the thought of the apalling number of human beings who die, without hope and with- out God? misery is almost enough to move a stone. to The oft repeated story of heathen melt a heart. even though it were made of flint." “For a young person, ready to enter active life, the choice of a profession is a master of prime importance; upon his choice, to a great extent, it depends whether his life shall be happy and useful or a failure. If he choose well, success will await him, but if he makes a wrong selection it may be difficult or even impossible to retrieve his fortune.” —Mantou Messenger. "The kind of teacher that is needed and wanted to-day, must be well—informed on a great many subjects, and thorough in his knowledge. wide awake to the fact that the world moves. but at the same time so well balanced in his thought as not to be carried away by everything new. simply because it is new; he must be able to distinguish between facts and fads." rNormal School Echo. A cheerful temperament is a blessing as well to its owner as to those who associate with him. In the first place it makes the possessor content and happy in his lot and averse to all grumbling. This causes him to undertake all his work with a light heart and in a manner hopeful of accomplishing it suc- cessfully. Thus all obstacles are easy to overcome. and all troubles diminish so as to become almost insignificant. But through it lightens much the burden of life to bear it joyfully. still in no less a measure does it benefit our comrades to see us always in a genial mood. By showing ouselves thus we make them forget their own troubles. in short. ()n the other hand our appearance as well as our ac- make life more agreeable to them. tions betray us when we are in bad humor. \Ve give the impression that we are in trouble. at the same time as we are exceedingly much tempted to show ourselves rude and incon- siderate. yea even offensive to others. This makes everyone loathe our company and pre- sence. and we therefore not only deprieve our fellow-men of all enjoyment which we ought to furnish them. but also make life bitter to them. ’eCollege Chips.
