MR.. CHALONER'S BUCKBOARD
EQUIPPED LIKE MOTOR CAR
Author Of Who's Looney Now" Adopts Novel
Scheme to Demand Respect From Will
JoY Riders in A]bemarle

TO the author Of that terse tele-
graphic query, who's looney now?"'
belongs the distinction Of having
whipped the reckless automobile driv-
ers a thousand miles from the middle
and of having coppered all bets when
it comes to getting his whole share OF
the road Now, to that class Of JOY
riders who can conceive OF nothing
more humorous than an overturned
carriage and runaway horse. the
roads of Albemarle county are spoken
of with bated breath and foot on
the brake clutch. For John Armstrong
Chaloner has the matter settled.
For long time Mr.. Chaloner's
Young Thoroughbred has been having
trouble with automobiles. The auto
drivers refused to see that he had any
right to the road, and he has been
startled and endangered numbers OF
times. During the last session OF the
Legislature Mr.. Chaloner came to Rlch.
mond to urge legislation In regard 20
auto driving, but the Solons would
have nothing to do with the proposi-
ton.
Early last spring Mr.. chaloner be-
gan to use heroic measures. On meet
ing one automobile which refused to
see that he had any rights in the mat
ter, he held up the chauffeur with 9
revolver and made him stop. Since
that he has been treated with great
deal more respect.
A short while ago Mr.. Chaloner came
to decision. He observed that the
auto drivers treateds each other with
the greatest respect and that nothing
would make a driver slow up more
quickly than the sght of pair OF
automobile headlights coming toward
him.
SO Mr.. cha1oner purchased pair OF

oceans-the northern continental divide
Deep in the canyons are roaring streams, COM
ing from the melting ice and snow and flowing
into placid mountain lakes below. Between the
canyons the long fngerke ridges rise to consid-
cradle heights, the Undiscovered slopes ascend
ing steeply until region of brush-grown broken
rock is reached which in turn leads to the base
of precipitous cliffs The canyons at the head
usually terminate in great amphtheaters, rising
cliff over cliff in a stairway of tremendous pro-
portions. Many of the steps of these giants
starways retain ice masses which slowly flow
across them, each fed from large ice mass
above until region of huge snow banks is
reached.
The main Rocky mountain mass is actually
made up of two principal parallel ridges, the
Lewis and the Livingston ranges, which run ap-
proximate1y through the center of the proposed
park. These ranges are the remnants of what
was once a much wider plateau-like region Of
rock, which, however, has been nightly carved
and shattered by the forces of erosion, prnci-
pally those Of the great ancient glaciers Resting
upon this great mass are the higher peaks huge
pyramids and blocks with cliffs and precipices
Of hundreds and sometimes thousands of feet
plunging away down to the roaring streams of
the canyons or ending in the great crevasse at
the head of some glacier.
To the westward the mountains break pre-
cpitousy, and from the foot of the steep, long,
Undiscovered ridges reach out toward the valley
of the Flathead river. Between these ridges and
extending up the canyons of the higher range
are many miles of lakes, Joined by rushing
streams similar to those the eastern side.
The whole park is inhabited by wild animals
and birds and the streams abound in many kinds
of fish, In the higher barren rock areas the white
goat is found in great numbers, while on the
slightly lower ridges, where some protection is
afforded by stunted timber growth and brush
and jagged slopes the Rocky mountain sheep, or
"bighorn," has his haunts In the valleys and on
the lower spurs are many Whitehall and back-tail
