Airplanes Will Be Means in Future to Explore North
W. Elmer Ekbaw Tells of Northern Expedition Organized by McMillan
That all further successful exploration of the northland will be done by airplane was the Friday conference revived this year. The conference was his speech Friday afternoon, in Room 203. Geology building, on the subject of "Geological Explorations in North Zealand."
Mr. Ekblaw was the geologist on the first McMillan polar expedition, which lasted from 1913 to 1917. This party was sent out by the National Geographic Society to do research work and provide advice to the man who had been a lieutenant with Penny at the time of the discovery or the North Pole, in 1909.
Greenland Scenery Unquenched "The whole of Greenland is a plateau from 3050 to 9000 feet high." Mr. Ekhinoorn, a Korean official of the country, "It is the most picturesque region in the world. All the plateau is covered with ice, sometimes 100 feet thick. There are many great plains across Greenland," he added. The Eskimos in the summer time, when the sea ice has melted. The Northern Lights, which are always associated with northern regions are no brighter than those on the Antarctic Islands, owing to the fact that this portion of Greenland is so far north;
Mr. Ekblak went on to say there is very little chemical diagenesis of the soil and soil is practically unknown. There may be seen once upon terrace of saturated rock. The precipitation is very slight, but consequently it is white except in a few cases, where it is a clear blue. Icebergs extend above the water to a distance of 120 feet, five or six times as deep at it.

"The Eskimo," said Mr. Ekblaw, "has no conception of time—no schedule whatever." 'Start when you get ready' is his attitude about every day; he says he can only any expedition for a certain day, but aside from this he is an admirable character indeed. He is hospitable to a fault, hard physically and just as alert mentally, because white teeth are covered by beard he be knowledge of how to lie.'
The Eskimos are extremely busy people. Just making a living keeps them busy, but they are the happiest people in the world." Mr. Ekbaw
