abode Of some patient European worker
rather than that of a progressive Ameri-
can. ON the walls hangs a splendid re-
lief map Of the Isthmus OF Panama. The
original is al the White House. where 1t
was placed al the request of President
Taft. II cost several thousand dollars
and required eight months to construct.
The visitor who looked incredulous at
such statement was promptly shown a
map of the United States. with every de-
preston and elevation In IL carefully en-
phaszed. and informed that a. niece or
Mr.. Howells had worked on IL steadily
for a year.
Yet" he added. smilingly, II once
made map OF this same great land i'm
day. Ii was for an artist who desired Ii
as a setting for statuettes, and modelled
ii from memory without a measured
scale This last is really what takes most
Of the time. Once a model has been COM
rleted the rest Is easy-so far as time Is
concerned. although, of course. in some
the coloring is exceptionally tedious
But getting the extreme accuracy Is
what eats up the days and months, for
the artist who was satisfied with a vague
suggestion of the United States had moth
ing in common with the strategic gentle
men who ordered the other model For 1t
maps of different scales had to be used,
and often local maps worked In because
the larger model did not clearly enough
reveal the smaller rivers and ranges of
hills. Reducing all this TO common
scale Is a gigantic task, and at exposition
times. when demands for such maps in
crease nightly. Mr.. Howell has a force
of girls employed to do much of the sole
~ mechanical jig-saw and FASTING work.
AA
To begin At the beginning. in this relief
map-making one starts in a room where
1t seems all the pasteboard OF all the
hat boxes in the world has been piled.
Ranged along one side Of II are cutting
tables and in front Of them are spaces
where the model maps. o. blue prints.
are placed. This Is not always done,
however. for when q map is ordered OF
a locality with which Mr.. Howell is sup
posed to be familiar no such guide is fur
nished. Also, in weather maps where
rainfall is to be depicted. and various
tones Of green tell how heavy it is or
how dry the conditions. mere suggestions
accompany the order.
But always extreme accuracy is the
fetish. The heights are obtained by the
contours. and because one usually gets
bird's-eye view of the map and the effect
is TO foreshorten heights these have at
times to be almost ridiculous.y exag-
eerated until II Is noted that they still
conform to the scale. Then the jgsaw
comes into service. as with II the noun
tains Of card board are cut out TO rep
resent these contours. Sometimes a sin
gle layer of the cardboard placed On the
surface represents an insignificant height;
sometimes IL stands for a great altitude.
For instance. in the model CT q golf
course now under completion, and which
is the most unique of all OF Mr.. Howelis
efforts, layer indicates a foot; in a map
OF Mount Shasta, lending dignity to one
