The Roosevelt, Commander Peary's new ship only awaits the propitious season to begin her quest of the Pole. Peary hopes to photograph his vessel moored to the Pole her bulwarks festooned with polar bears shot by his daring crew and will take along a camera as the best means of proving the truth of his discovery. He may save some good negatives if the Esquimau girls don't butt in. Up there they wear pants the same as men only a little more so.
