CHARTS OF

PREPARED
Special to the Daily Express.

Special to the Daily Express.
Washington, April 49, The fact that
the Panama cana! is approaching com
pletion and that large number of
vessels will undoubtedly avail them
selves of this short route from the At
lantic to the Pacific has been antici-
pated by the department Of commerce
in the publication by the United
States coast and geologic survey office
of a series Of charts of the canal and
its approaches.
The general chart of the Panama
canal and approaches, No. 954, which
has recently been issued, is on scale
1-l46,000 or one-half inch to the nauti-
cal mile, and is in colors The canal
is colored dark blue and the oceans
waters light blue; while the region
OF the Canal Zone is colored light
pink tint and the territory of Panama
is given pale buff tint. The sound
ings are given in feet The tidal data
is for mean low water springs in the
gulf and Bay of Panama and mean
low water In the Caribbean sea and
Limon bay. The mean higher high
tide at Colon is only IL feet above the
plane of reference and the lowest four
feet below it. The surveys on which
this chart are based were made by
the coast and geodetic survey in 1905
and 1912, but surveys made by the
Isthmian canal commission and in
formation obtained from other sources
have also been utilized The light
houses and buoys for the aid of nayi-
gators in the approaches to the canal
are shown and their characteristics
indication. The elevation on land are
given in feet above high water There
are two compass roses and border
scale on the chart. The magnetic de-
clination in this region is given as 4
degree 25 minutes east in 1915, with
an annual decrease Of one minute.
This chart, besides its usefulness
for the purposes Of navigators, will
also be Of interest to the large mum
bers of tourists who visit or pass
through the canal.

Three other charts, Nos. $50, S52,
and 1853, are on larger scales for spe-
cial uses Chart No. $50 of Colon har-
bor and approaches on the Atlantic
side, is on a scale OF 1-15,000. Chart
No. 952, which includes Panama har-
Dor and the Pacific end Of the canal
and its approaches is on scale Of
100000. Chart No. 96S, on a scale of
100000, also shows Panama harbor
and the Pacific end of the canal Be-
ing on smaller scale this Cart in
cludes a larger area than No. 952. The
last three charts are not colored. but
they give the same data as the gem
eral chart (No. 954) on larger scale
and for more limited area. All are
on the Mercator projection. They may
be obtained from the office of the
coast and geodetic survey in Washing
ton or from sales agents at the princi-
pal ports in the United States at the
price printed on each chart.

Washington, April 23. Baby hy-
giene," the care and bringing up of
infants. and other similar matters
were discussed today at the second
days session of the National Congress-
of Mothers and Parent Teachers as
sociation. One speaker asserted that

lected, wrongly treated child becomes
a menace to the state; that neglected
childhood exists where the principles
of successful child nature and child
treatment are not understood, and
that the future of every nation rests
on comprehensive, well considered
provisions for the care Of children.
With parental knowledge OF baby hy-
giene. it was declared, the mortality
can be reduced seventy-five per cent.
and the number of children sent to re-
formatories, pisons and similar insti-
tutions reduced to the minimum.
