We observe on the map great paucity
OF information shout the interior Of the
island. The reason is that the jungle
which covers it is SO dense that not even
natives have penetrated far into it, ex-
cept in two or three places where paths
extend from coast to coast.
Guam, like all the other islands Of the
Ladrones, was built up partly by out
pourings from volcanoes and partly by
the work of coral insects; but 1t has this
advantage over islands to the north.
that its volcanoes are all extinct, while
there are still eruptive mountains on
some Of the more northern islands.
Guam has some peculiarities. The
northern half Of 1t consists almost who'll

SO that the rain sinks Immediately into
1t and makes its way by underground
channels to the sea. so that there are
no springs or rivers in the northern part
Of the island.

Of Agana. the capital, is large spring
that yields copious supply Of water.
It oozes through . swamp and finds it's

themselves beneath the surface for 9

A few of the farmers in the west
ern part of Cass county are organic
ing to fight the bond issue of 5000, 900
for new court house. They want

This would not raise sufficient funds
for the building unless carried along

there would be no provision for car

Another objection raised would be
that the entire cost of the courthouse
would fall on the present taxpayers,

and refused to sign the findings. This
amount is about 500 more than was
