The Chinainat L. named In memory
OF a Celestial who Is said to have estab-
Iished laundry in the park and who
put clothes and soap into the geyser's
pool and was annihilated according to
the story, by the violent eruption. II
is a remarkable fact, however. that a
bar or two of soap will cause practical
ly any geyser to play in few min
utes. The practice of causing erup-
lions in this manner became SO COM
mon q few years ago that the Gov
eminent put stop to 1t al It was
feared that some Of the best geysers
would be ruined. This whole basin
with the weird Wilderness Of its floor,
the gaunt trunks of pine trees killed
by the hot waters, the myriads of
steaming crystal pools and the spout
ing geysers, Is scene never to be
forgotten
In Norris Basin the geysers steam
directly out Of the rocks, having no
mounds whatever. Several are what
are known as mud spouters, shooting
up hot masses of wet pasty earth OF
blueish color. The Black Grower
/ Is q steam vent only, and all day and
all night there Is continual roar and
hiss OF steam from this opening in tho
rocks. Tho earth IS SO hot at this
point that 1t is deemed unsafe to step
directly upon It. A walk has been
built across the entire basin and tour
lists are forbidden to step off of IT.
A United States soldier always accom-
panies them to see that the rule is
obeyed. Each geyser has It's own In
dividuaity and beauty and no two are
alike. and weeks are sometimes spent
by travellers In studying the moods OF
these marvellous natural wonders

In Belgium the work Is done almost
entirely by women. Even at Charieroi
the girls have taken the places of their
fathers and brothers IN the coal pits,
ekeing out a meager livelihood In hard

In Germany the women are equally
strenuous. for they work Ia the fields
and carry the heavy sheavas of wheat
to the granary and great loads of po-
tatoes to the warehouses. Practically
an of the work horses and oxen have
been Communicated for service In the
army. so the women have become the
beasts of burden as well as the labor

I built a raft with will low things. and pushed into the wild erness of running ice with only pole to steer. The poles of the raft kept slipping and rolling. and I had to lie rrone on the raft, and became soaking wet.
