full The telescopes are usually good and through them one can get most comprehensive view of the summit of Pike's Peak. In fact, favorite stunt of the visitors is to watch the little train of the cog wheel road climb to the top of the peak. Thousands of visitors come to the Garden of the Gods each year. many returning again and again, fascinated by the remark able geological formations and the great beauty of scenery thereabouts.
 Geology of the Garden.
 The geology of the Garden Is almost as interesting as the formations Many noted geologists from all parts of the world have visited the Park and they agree that Pike's Peak was once an island and that the granite and pebbles found in the sedimentary rocks west of the Gateway of the Gar den were deposited in the sea along the shores of granite island which at some remote period occupied the area now covered by Pike's Peak. They also agree that the rocks are sedimentary conglomerates = sand stone, shale and limestone deposited in horizontal beds and mostly in the open sea- These rocks contain inter esting minerals and fossils. During a great upheaval the curious figures in the Garden were formed When the region West of the Mississippi River was bodily raised above the ocean some parts were elevated more than others. There were multitude of

exact as to the location, it lies four miles northwest of Colorado Springs and extends from Grand View Hill to the large rocks forming the gateway What is known as Mushroom Park ad- joins it and although this is private property it is likewise open to the pub lie free of charge. This section cov- CTS about one hundred acres.
 Entering at Grand View Hill one soon comes upon the singular forma- tions, each of which is separated from the other. First come the Mushrooms perfect types of giant mushrooms formed of red sandstone and stand ing about ten feet in height. Close by is the Dutchman, pile of rocks show ing the profile of Hollander. On the opposite side of the road is the Baggage Room where huge rocks shaped like trunks and dress suit cases are piled up with such precision that one almost doubts that their grouping is really the work of Nature. but when one remembers that each of the stones weighs several tons the fact that the formation is really the nat ural grouping of the rocks is evident.
 Curious Formations.
 Farther on is the Hounds Head. the Alligator, the Ape. the Deer Head.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-06-18

through this gateway beggars descrip- ton, for there against the turquoise sky for which Colorado is so noted stands the Queen of the Rockies Pikes Peak-crowned with snow. The green grass, yellow and purple flowers, the blue sky and red rocks combine to produce a perfect kaleidoscope of Natures beauties rarely equalled in mountain scenery. and here the visitor is sure to finger. At sunset when the sky changes to gold the scene becomes one worthy of the brush of the great est artist.
 The Balanced Rock.
 Perhaps the greatest natural won der of the Garden is what is known as the Balanced Rock-a huge boul- der about twenty feet in width and thirty feet high and as many feet in length and weighing at least five hun dred tons is balanced on a rock base of four by five feet There it has stood for ages perfectly poised on Its small base. This is the favorite spot for tourists to be photographed.
 Just opposite is a huge boulder known as the Steamboat Rock, being shaped like the bow of vessd while riding the waves. A railing has been built on the top and number of tele- scopes have been set up for the use of visitors. Tables are also set on the rock and one may have lemonade on the deck of this rock. As nearly every day is sunny in Colorado, the sun bath one receives here Is delight
