THE NORTH POLE, « WHO GOT THERE FIRST? The latest cable advice to hand up to going to press indicates the intense feeling which is being felt by the rival eupporters of Cook and Peary. After all. it won't affect the man in the street if they both got there first, he has just to pay as much for his bread and butter and more for his gas. Had these explorers reduced the cost of living or shown New Zealanders how to save money in the same practical way thet a well-known tailor has done, they would have earned the gratitude of every man. PEARY OFFERS THE POLE TO PRESIDENT and ho doesn't know what to do with it; had he offered him one of Mr Owen' 6 famous suits Mr Taft would have accepted it with open hands, end known what to do with it. We are also quite sure that Mr Owen's tailoring success is without a precedent in the country, and. he deserves the support of every man for the reel benefits h« has conferred on hundreds of men/ and long may he hold the proud position he now holds at the top of tho pole, with the best always for the Iβ*** money. 0470S
