construction is upon the ground and
work win proceed rapidly from now
until the great enterprise is completed.
Few pssple have anything like an
adequate idea of the magnitude of the
undertaking which is going on. or Of
the splendid mechanical equipment
the contractors have provided for its
accomplishment When the work is
fully launched the scene at the reser-
voir will be a busy one and can hardly
fail to enlist the attention of people
interested in Industrial achievement.
Two Aetionary engines, each OF $50
horse power, have been erected and
are used In conjunction with the un-
dertaking. They are located about a
thousand feet apart and represent the
extremes OF the reservoir. The Fresno
excayators are used in the digging
process and they each scoop out three
cubic yards of material at . time.
Long steel cables with q tensile
strength Of SO! 900 pounds are employ
ed and are an essential feature of the
equipment By an ingenious system

previously recorded much to the graf

been unremitting in her efforts to
make the institute success.
In addition to the reception for the
teachers on the occasion of the visit
of Miss Katherine l. Craig here last
week there was an excursion for them
over the Skyline drive and the scenic
road into the Royal Gorge Wednesday
afternoon, which was greatly enjoyed
by those who took advantage OF 1t.
Forty-one teachers made the trip
and partook of a picnic supper at the
convict camp In the gorge.

A carriage drive over the recently
constructed road from Sand Greek val
ley to the site of the proposed reser-
voir OF the new waterworks system
on the eastern slopes Of Fremont's
peak was made by the Daily Record
reporter Tuesday afternoon and was
found to be an attractive and pictur-
esque trip.
Although built primarily for the pur-
pose of affording the waterworks con-
tractors opportunity for hauling ma
chinery and material up the hillside
at an easy gradient, the road is a per
manent one and will be open to the
public at all times, indeed, 1t is the
intention of the authorities to connect
It with the scenic driveway into the
Royal Gorge and thus make it an inn
portant link in the system Of pleasure
driveways that is destined to make
Canon City famous.
1t leads on from Canal street near
Kenley's gardens and winds about the
hill in spiral fashion, the ascent at

heavy.
