Bad From Boreas-land; Donald B. MacMillan, Explorer, Returns From Frozen North Photo from Wide World Photo*. Greeted as a conquering hero, Donald B. MaeMillan, the Arctic explorer, returned to his native land and to his state, Maine. The crowd which wel comed him at Wiscasset was vastly larger than any previous one, and the enthusiasm far exceeded that of any of the similar occasions. The expedition will also go down in history as one of the most notable te the Frozen North, due principally te the fact that for the first time radio played a supreme part and made it possible for the little schooner Bowdoin to keep in constant touch with the affairs of civilization during the entire 15 months that it was ?way. Photo shows the "Bowdoin" at Wiscasset, Maine. - ? Honeymoon The tradition of keeping a "honeymoon" 1? *f ancient origin.

EVANS had been born In New York Hud had lived there all his Ufe. lie whs about as provincial as most people who have been reared In a large city ami who think ttiey have seen the world. His first view of Ne braska as his train rolled slowly along the valley of the i'latte was not a very alluring one. The level farms stretch ing parched and treeless to apparently limitless distances, the low, bare, un pulnted farmhouses in the midst of the linystacks and cattle sheds, the absence of everything beautiful or comfortable, seemed to him to make life there hideously Impossible. "Do men and women choose to live In such a place?" he asked me. "How do they spend their leisure time If they have any? Nothing to do, noth ing to see, nothtng to go to! With all this level ground, I haven't seen a tennis court since I left New York." Evans had played tennis ever since he was a boy la "prep" school, and be could not understand how with such wonderful opportunities for the sport no one seemed Inclined to take advan tage of them. "They have their booaebold duties," I answered, "very laborious ones at times, ami they have tbetr children " "1 should think they'd go Insane," he continued. "Well, some of them do," I an swered, "as women do In the city, worn out by society and too moch lei sure; but In general they work as reg ularly and as hard as their husband* " "It seems bell to me," Evans said. On our way back from Denver busl nesa required that we visit one of the deepLsed farmhouses. The man of the bouse was gone, but his young wife was able to transact the baslness for which we came. She was an attrac tive yoong^woman with a Shy tittle youngster hiding behind her skirts. Both she and her husband had been to college, we dlsctrvcred ; tUetj had traveled some, and, much to Evans* surprise, they had even been to New York. "How do yoo ttre In soch a placof '?vans asked. "It Isnt so bad." aba replied Umpty. "We have each other, we are going to have a home, and we bra htm," she said tenderly, laying her hand an Om <sa Id's head. T* vary Tmpcy." (O.
