arrests win follow the violation of the

Notice to this effect will be sent to the

Notes for Women
A Plea for Moderation

College life in many of our great in
stitutions is becoming as overburdened
with subjects and pleasures as the
child's life is. The democracy and
simplicity and calm which are Of such
infinite Importance at the period a
young man or young woman is usually
taking the college course are given
away to class distinctions founded on
money-spendng, to luxury and elabor-
alton of quarters, and to the excite
ments of the sporting field and the au-
tomobile. We cannot manufacture,
buy or hire any educational substitute
for the family circle. the forest, the
field, the natural simple life of old
fashioned work and play. We cannot
make a great college with anything
but study, reflection. aspiration.

. GREAT CULEBRA CUT.
Biggest Piece Of Digging Ever Under
taken-A Huge Mexican Drainage
Cut.

The huge excavations for the Pana-
ma Canal across the Culebra divide
will be by far the greatest furrow in
the earth's surface ever made by
human agency. This statement is made
by the Engineering News, in COM
prehensive discussion Of the great
excavation projects of the world. The
big Panama cut is so large that the
mind fails to grasp it's real magnitude,
and 1t can only be appreciated by
comparison with some familiar object.
A question of considerable interest re-
Gently raised by correspondent re-
lates to the largest existing artificial
excavation which is at all comparable
with the Culebra cut. Great amounts
of excavation were done, Of course,
on such works as the North Sea Canal,
the Manchester Canal and the Suez
Canal; but all these were built through
comparatively level country.
So far as it has been able to dis
cover, the only deep cut at all COM
parable with that to be made through
the Cuelbra divide is the great Nochi-
stongo cut through the hills which
surround the Valley of Mexico. This
huge excavation was begun in 1910,
for the purpose of affording an outlet
to the flood waters which had inun-
dated the City of Mexico and destroyed
a great part of the city and its in
habitants. For more than hundred
and forty years labor on this great
work was the chief task of the Mex
ican nation, and it was not until the
year 1883 that it was finally completed.
The total length of the Nochistongo
cut Is twelve and one-half miles. Its
greatest depth is 1877 fest. and its great
est width is 361 feet. The total amount
of material excavated was about 54,-
100000 cubic yards. In comparison
with this the cut at Culebra will have
a considerably greater maximum
depth and width, even for the project
with the eighty-five-foot summit level.
The total cube of excavation at the
Cu1ebra divide was estimated by En-
gineer Wallace as 1S6,0O0,000 cubic
yards for the sea-level canal and ILL.,
O00, 600 cubic yards for a canal with
sixty-foot summit level.
While in mere size Of excavation
the cut through the Panama divide is
by far the larger, the fact that the
Nochistongo cut was made with abso-
lutely no aid from machinery or me-
chanical power, but wholly with hui
man muscle, makes our task on the
isthmus seem like mere child's play
in comparison with that accomplished
by those>patient toilers under the tor
rid sun of Mexico two centuries ago.
When one recalls that this deep, arti-
fetal valley, more than twelve miles
long, was all dug by the labor of In
dians, who excavated the material
with the crudest hand tools and car
ried it in baskets on their heads to the
place of final deposit, the great cut of
Nochistongo is entitled to rank, with
the Pyramids of Egypt. among the
worlds greatest wonders.
