PROBABLY WORK OF MANY
edged as the Builder Of the
Tower Of London.

Who was the original builder of
the Tower of London? He is as un-
known as the architect of the Tower
of Babel?
Poetic license has, indeed, helped
to make confusion in this respect
worse confounded, for it seems salts
factorily proved that Caesar, whose
name has been connected with it, had
nothing whatever to do with its erec-
ton.
If there be one name that is more
closely associated than another with
London's most interesting landmark
it is that of Bishop Gundulf, who, in
1O76, was appointed by William the
Conqueror overseer and surveyor to
the building.
But the Tower is one of those land
marks which are essentially rather
the product of successive ages than
the work of one period, and it may
not be generally known that its chief
feature, the White tower, owes much
of its present appearance to Wren,
who faced its windows with stone
after the Italian fashion, and thus
gave it that almost modern character
which it wears today.

AVIAT0RS TO BE TRAINED
United States War Department Offers
to Teach Militia officers at the
Governments Expense.

Secretary of War Garrison has ad-
viscd ihe Aero Club of America that
militia officers may be trained in mil
;tary aeronautics at the United
States army aviation school at San
Diego. Cal, at the expense of the
r.r dcDartment.
Tee is an enormous amount of
- jrk to be done in order to develop
a. atlon corps for the 48 states, and
as the sums collected through the ma
'1nal aeroplane fund could be used
f"r ne general expenses of developing
aviGtion corps in the militia, this
proposal on the part of Secretary
Clyrison is Of particular importance.
Sixteen states have become inter-
csteG through the Aero clubs efforts
and are now ready to take up the
work of developing aviation corps for
the militia as soon as they can get
frHds for aeroplanes and for the up
keep of the corps. The states are
arizona, California, Illinois, Iowa,
Florida, Maine, Missouri, Nebraska,
New Jersey. New York, Ohio, Okla

ACCOUNTING FOR SALT LAKE
Fact That Well-known Body of Water
Has No Outlet Is Reason
Why II Is Saline.

Great Salt Lake has no outlet.
Jordan river, which enters it from
the south, is the outlet of Utah lake.
Bear river, coming from the north,
carries the outflow from Bear lake.
The waters of Utah and Bear lakes
and of Jordan and Bear river are
fresh, and so is the water of Weber
river, the third great tributary of
Great Salt lake, but the lake into
which the three rivers flow is saline.
1t is saline because it has no outlet.
The fresh waters of the rivers con-
tain some saline matter, but the
quantity is too small to be discovered
by taste.
As stated by the chemist, in parts
per million, the quantity seems mi
mute, but when account is taken of
the total volume of water brought by
the streams to the lake in a year their
burden of saline matter is found to
be really great, amounting annually
to more than five hundred thousand
tons.
Year by year and century by CEN
tury the water which they pour into
the lake is evapo1ated, but the dis
solved solids cannot escape in that
way and therefore remain.
They have accumulated until the
lake water is approximately satu-
rated, holding nearly as much min
eral matter as it can retain in solu-
ton. The lake contains over five
billion tons Of crmnon salt and nine
hundred million tons of Glauber
salt (sodium sIlphate) as well as
other mineral mat' y.
