Stefansson Tells Edmonton Audience of Rich Agricultural Lands Within Arctic Circle. A new conception of the pos- sibilities of the far north has come to about two hundred and seventy-five Edmonton men as a result of an interesting address by Viljahmur Stefansson, the fa- mous explorer, at a joint luncheon of the Kiwanis and Rotary Club, at the Macdonald hotel, Edmonton Mr. Stefansson, whom Col, Gorn wall described as the greatest living authority on the north, punctured the belief entertained y most people that the northern fringe of Canada is a land of per- petual ice and snow and stated that he had experienced six weeks of unclouded skies, and this sev- eral hundred miles north of the Arctie Circle. Mr. Stefansson’s message was one of practical interest to busi- ness men because it was a plea for the development of the agri- cultural resources of this country. He held the belief that while the north is undoubtedly rich in min- vral resources the development of that form of wealth may well wait until the agricultural possibilities are developed. The northern por- tion of Canada, in the opinion of the speaker, is the greatest graz- ing country in the world, the pre- vailing grass being the famed Kentucky blue grass, the value of which for pasturage is well known. Reindeer Industry. He cited the case of a Lapland- er, Mr. Lindenberg, who in Alaska had originated the reindeer in- dustry on a commercial basis, and 'who is now selling reindeer meat in the big cities of the States at an average of 10 cents a pound higher than beef, as typical of what may be accomplished in Canada, where there are 1,000,0 square miles of grazing land, as compared with 100,000 in Alaska. Reindeer meat could be shipped to London from Baflin’'s Land as easily and with as short.a haul as from to Seattle, and he urged his hearers to give serious consideration to the possibilities of developing this very important industry and expressed the hope that the government would take dhe matter up vigorously and at an early date, before the Ameri- cans had secured control of the markets. Nome No Heroics. Mr. Stefansson disclaimed any heroic exploits by reason of his ten years’ experience in the north, where, for the most part, he lived as comfortably as those in the so-called centres of civilization, remarking humorously that con- trary to general belief, the long period of darkness does not pro- duce depression, and said he could prove it if anyone cared to visit him at his home near the corner of 42nd street and Broadway at one o'clock any morning. es es et ere BE ~~ we ; Sport Briefs tre E eGC7"__oo tnough considerable merit was shown by the girls playing in the Publie School vs. the High Schoo! last Monday night, still their; play could stand a lot of improvement The youngsters are to be credited with the excellence they did show as it was the result of their own initiative and self-acquired train- ing. If some of the seniors would step in and give them some coach- ing they would soon be whipped into a first-rate team that would be able to play under the full rules and penalties of the game. . . Jim Driscoll, world’s champion feather-weight boxer from 1909 till 1913, when he retired, was beaten by Chas. Ledoux France in a 20-round battle at Covent Garden, London, a short time ago. Driscoll’s seconds threw up the sponge in the 16th round, al- though Jem had the fight all his own way up till the opening of the 15th. In that round he re- ceived a heavy righthanded punch on the jaw which seemed to com- pletely weaken him, It was a memorable fight and a eredit to the loser, who received a tremen- dous ovation at the end of the bout. * * * While in Salt Lake City on Monday Jack Dempsey personally confirmed his $175,000 contract with Dominick Tortorich, the New Orleans promoter, to meet the winner of the Carpentier-Beckett — = er edhe dade tata ee ae coe Cae es paar fight which takes place abroad December 4. The fight will take place at New Orleans on March 17th. The meeting of the moguls i the Pacific Coast Hockey Associa- tion takes place today. At |! meeting the winter schedule will be arranged and the line-ups an-| nounced. It is expected that the | Christmas and New Year. The, outlook is that all the teams wil be stronger than they were last year and there is no doubt but that the race will be a tight orfe. Reports from Hazelton, Smit’ ers and Alice Arm say that skat- ing is already being enjoyed at these pots. If the frost strikes Rupert this place will also have the ice sport and local hockey en- thusiasts are already making plans for games, > * > If “Babe” Ruth, the American League home run king, does not get his demand of $20,000 for next season from the Boston Red Sox, he says that he will go on a tour, including Australia and Honolulu. Evidently the sensa- tional pellet puncher can afford to be independent. We put pep into our printing usiness at The News Print Shop. MINERAL ACT. Certificate of improvements.
