ANOTHER NATIONAL PRESERVE
Mountain Scenes of Exceptional
Beauty are Found in Estes National
Park

A few years ago the Appalachian
Mountain Club brought out book
called Mountaineering in Colorado"
The region which this book described
was Estes Park and the surrounding
mountain section of northern Colo
RADIO. 1t is now proposed to make this
region into the Estes National Park
and Game Preserve In this area are
mountain scenes of exceptional beauty
and grandeur. The greater portion of
the proposed park lies above the alti-
tude of 1000 feet. Within its bounds
is the most rugged section of the Con-
ttnental Divide of the Rocky Noun
tans. There are more than a dozen
peaks which. rise higher than 13.00D
feet; one of these is Longs Peak-the
king of the Rocky Mountains. Sew
eral streams rise in these mountain
heights and with many white cas-
eade they make their eager starts
for the two oceans. There are num-
erous lakes, and the region is rent
with many wild gorges and canons.
Three glaciers still linger in these
heights, and on most moorlands lie
fields of ever present snow, From
the heights there extends far below
series of strange, gigantic old NOR
aines Timberland is at an altitude
of 1,000 feet and below this the
ridged mountain slopes are ROBBED with
forests of spruce. fir pine and aspen.
Each year more than a thousand
varieties of wild flowers enliven this
grandly terraced wild garden. over

are occasionally seen. Here the beav

CONSCIENCE FUNDS.
New Works Has Had Slump Since
the 1907 Panic.

Father sKnickerbocker' conscience
fund has suffered slump in the last
five wears that has puzzled the clerks
in the Comptroller's office. Since 1906.
when The very large sum of s2S.165.60
was contributed to the fund by per-
sons who felt they had done the city
out of money, there has not been a
really large amount received.
In fact. in 1907 the contributions oy
honest citizens fell from the s2Sooo
mark to only s92.64 and the city
Chamberlain has lamented the tact
that our good citizens have not been
SO easily moved by their consclences
since 1906.
Up to the end of July only SS2f6
has been received from anonymous
persons for the conscience fund tins
year.
The statistics in the Comptfoiler's
office show that around Easter IL
usually harvest time for the conscience
fund. This. according to men III the
hnance department. is because 50 many
people go to confession at that sea-
son and their spiritual advisers tell
them to return ILL., begotten money to
the city. Last year a priest took SOU
to the Comptroller in one lump which
he turned over without revealing his
own name or that of the sender. who
was probably a tax dodger.

This check was turned over to the

The old Italian nethod of singing

possible. In this way a correct speak

Nasal, throaty and harsh voices are
all caused by the tone being produced
in either the nose, throat or chest. A

FOOD ANIMAL Is NEW

trail Texas has been raising Virginia
deer for the past four or five years,
and has made something of a success
OF the breeding. The venison finds a
ready sale. and the skins have little
difficulty in finding a market. AL
though this animal is somewhat larger
than the n | have in mind, it ought
also to be developed in the state. This
Virginia deer is also known as the
white TAIL and is able to live in prac.
tically any part of the country, if In
the colder climates it is given a GER
tain amount of attention in winter.
The breed is unusually prolific, and
the doe, | understand, nearly always
produces twins. This breed will eat
cotton seed. and will subsist upon
practically anything with the keep
ton of wild hay.

the muntjac. and as the Punjaub is due

Head Of Musical Department Of Los
Angeles High School Has New
Method of Harmony.

Los Angeles, Cas-Los Angeles
eventually will be a paradise Of per-
feet linguistics ii the plans Of those
at the head Of the music department
of the public schools can carry out
their modern ideas OF voice using.
The system lately introduced aims to
make conversation a continuous har-
mony delight and to free it from many
of the everyday defects Of enuncia-
ton.
Children are to be taught to form
words and sentences as they would
the phrases of a song and to have a
mellifluous effect always in mind in
speaking.
Miss Katherine D. Stone, head OF
the musical department of the public
schools here, has started on a tour
of all the principal cities in the coun-
try with the purpose of giving and
accepting suggestions as to the sue
cessful working out of the new method
of voice culture.
Each voice has a different dominant
note. that is, a note upon which all the
speaking sounds are based. From this
note every meditation and infection
of the voice should be regulated.
Usually in an ordinary sentence, un.
less the emotion is violent, the domi-
nant note is used at the commence
ment and different tones are afterward
employed through the different colors
Of a sentence.
Grief, hatred and enmity all have
distinct and varied rules for correct
intoning. Grief and deep emotion are
expressed in the minor key entirely.
just as a song of sorrowful cast is
written in a minor strain. In the ex-
clamation, "Oh, N.Y." said sadly, the
whole cromatic scale is employed for
q complete octave.
On the other hand, Joy and convic-
ton are shown by the major key and
an ejaculation such as "Hurrah!" will
in complicated order cover all but
one major octave fro ma low note to
q high one.
In a question the high note should
come at the point in the sentence
when the query is most pronounced;
