Mrs. II. A. Lawson, who lives at

"Nature's Remedy hasn't failed us

Results like that are what make
Nature's Remedy (NR Tablets) so

you suffer from biliousness, sick
headache, Indigestion, rheumatic

BLUE STAR OINTMENT
New York.—A giant Iceberg, its
Bleek sides glinting ghostlike in the
fog, is riding the swells in the North
Atlantic steamship track southeast of
the Grand Banks. Born of a glacier
In the realm of Ice on the western
coast of Greenland, it had Irifted, un-
seasonably early, at high speed for a
berg, down the frigid Labrador cur-
rent past the eastern shelf of the
Banks.
Sharp lookouts on the North Ger-
man Lloyd liner Muenchen, passing
the Banks on its last westward Jour-
ney before it burned and sank at its
North River pier, spied the menace
and knew what it portended. It was
the advance guard of those threats to
navigation which each winter divert
the North Atlantic liners to more
southerly courses on the edge of the
Gulf stream as they plow their way
to and from Europe.
Ice in the steamship lanes is a
menace at any time, but so early in
the season as this, with the crews
of the coast guard cutters which main-
tain the International ice patrol still
In their quarters at Boston, the threat
is two-edged. Word of the sighting
of the iceberg, therefore, was (lashed
to the hydrographic office of the Navy
department at Washington, says the
New York Times.
For a week experts in the vagaries
of drifting ice had been keeping their
attention upon the southern opening
of Davis straits, between Labrador
and Greenland.
Keeping Track of Icebergs.
To them the brief report from the
Muenchen's radio told volumes. It
meant for one th!rg that the Ice
patrol, maintained by three coast
guard cutters, relieving each other
at intervals on the Banks, must hasten
to their stations and protect shipping.
Capt O. S. Kempff, naval h.vdro-
grapher; Commander H. G. Shonerd
and A. B. McMantis of the Maritime
Safety division had had other reports
and had noted them on charts.
Two were sighted by the Hellig Olav
of the Norwegian-American line east
of Newfoundland. Two others had
been seen by lookouts of- the Ber-
gensfjord of the Scandinavian-Ameri-
can line off the east shelf of' the
Banks. Other vessels had sighted ice
fields further north. Ice in the steam-
ship lanes, as radioed by the Muen-
chen, six weeks earlier than antici-
pated, indicated this might turn out
the worst year for ice In the North
Atlantic since 1012, when the Titanic
on its maiden voyage to New York
split her keel on a berg and carried
1,100 persons to their deaths.
Information was flashed by Captain
Kempff to Rear Admiral F. C. Bll-
lard, commandant of the Coast Guard,
and in turn to Capt. Stanley V. Par-
ker of the cutter Tampa, lying at Bos-
ton, who was ordered to get under
way and undertake a general survey
of ice conditions. After a quick ap-
praisal of conditions near the steam-
ship lanes she Is to swing north to ob-
serve vhat Ice masses may be on their
way southward and If necessary take
up an Immediate patrol of the lanes.
Steamship Courses Altered.
Other mensures were taken for as-
suring safety to thousands of persons
traveling the North Atlantic. The
steamship operators comprising the
North Atlantic t ack agreement were
Immediately notified of the berg
threat in the winter track, the most
northerly of the three lanes between
New York and Channel ports. "This
body of operators ii. represented by
the Cunard line and In this country
by A. p. Wright. Its New York agent.
Wright, on being advised, commu-
nicated the news to London. The
steamship operators conferred, nnd
forthwith the ransatlantlc liners shift-
ed their courses t-> the next southerly
steamship lane. 00 miles further south
of Cape Race and 120 miles further
east, or approximately 100 miles fur-
ther southeast from the tip of the
banks.
This action moved their courses
close to the waters of the Gulf Stream,
away from the dangers of bergs. From
now on their courses past the fog of
the banks will be determined by the
dally radio reports from the Tampa
and the Modoc, of the Coast Guard,
engaged in the International Ice pa-
trol.
If the assumption of the experts of
the hydrographic office are confirmed
by the Tampa's observations, the ice
patrol will begin at once, and until
nearly midsummer the three cutters
will alternate at cruising off the edge
of the Ice and between the ice and
the steamship lanes.
The Nine-Year Cycle.
Similar ice conditions in the Ant-
arctic have been reported by Rear Ad-
miral Byrd, whose aides found the
worst pack in years north of the Ross
sea. Conditions now being reported
point to, but do not yet conclusively
prove, the existence of a nine-year
cycle in the presence of heavy ice
this early in the 3easoti on and north
of the Grand Banks. The first year
of which the hydrographic office has
definite evidence of similar conditions
was in the late winter of 190!!. The
next year such conditions existed was
in 1012, when charts show the pres-
ence of a veritable nest of bergs south-
east of the banks, Into one of which
the Titanic ripped its way. Again in
1021 heavy Ice appeared early in the
season In northern steamship lanes.
The nine-year cycle appears to have
been completed this year again.

years have been studying the Ice
movements In the North Atlantic have
so far failed to establish the factors
which govern the surge and recession
of the Ice fields und the Icebergs from
their nests in the cold regions to their
graves in the warm waters of the Gulf
Stream, data from which these secrets
may yet be wrung have been compiled
since 1013 by the men who maintain
the ice patrol, and by the scientists
in Washington who chart and corre-
late their findings.
New knowledge of the currents
which control the movements of the
bergs was obtained from the ch'.Jl wa-
ters north of Newfoundland by the
Coast Guard expedition In the cutter
Marion In the summer of 1028. Now
each day new bits of knowledge are
being Hashed to the hydrographla
office by 4,"i00 vessels of all nationali-
ties. They report the presence and
movements not only of bergs and ice
fields but also of every other threat
to navigation.
Where Icebergs Are Born.
The scientists know now that tho
warm waters of the Gulf Stream, as
they swing northeastward toward Eu-
rope, eddy past Greenland, a current
swinging to the west around Its south-
ern tip and coursing north along the
blenk Greenland coast past the birth-
place of the bergs in Disko bay. The
surge of the warm current blasts the
bergs from the glaciers at the ocean
edge and they swing out into the
stream.
Apparently, the current continues
northerly for some distance, but
eventually it swings first to the west
and then south again along the coast
of Baffin land and Labrador, con-
tinuing southward off Newfoundland
to the east shelf of the banks. There
the course of the currents vary. Soma
years they eddy west around the tip of
Newfoundland and at other times their
eddies are in the contrary direction.
Whatever their direction, however, the
result is the same. At some period
of the late winter the bergs ride into
the steamship lanes and eventually are
dissipated, sometimes within four or
five days, in the warm waters of the
Gulf Stream.
But from the day the bergs appear
off Newfoundland they are tagged by
the cutters of the Ice patrol and their
movements watched so that ample
warning of the movements may be
sent to the near-by vessels.
The ice patrol is the outgrowth of
the demands for additional protection
to sea voyagers subsequent to the
Titanic tragedy.
The cost of maintaining the patrol
Is shared among the nations whose
shipping uses the North Atlantic ac-
cording to the tonnage operated over
these routes.
Each coast guard cutter maintains
a 15-day patrol on its station, and then
is relieved by its successor. Clenr of
the banks nnd free of responsibility
the cutters head Into Halifax for shore
leave for their crews nnd to stock pro-
visions against the next patrol.
