OPENS WONDER PLACE.
Automobile Road to Span Ten
| Thousand Smokes.
!Will Give Tourists Access to Territory
Where Nature Freaks
Are Seen.

COrdova, Alaska.--Co of a
projected automobile road of Is miles
up the beds of painted streams is
expected to open to tourists from all
parts OF, the world the valley of Ten
Thousand Smokes, in the Mount Kat
mai region of Alaska, about eighty
miles north of Kodiak island.
Enterprising motion picture produc-
ers, following scientific expeditions in
TO the strange valley, have returned
here with films Of the myriad smokes"
and with reports of shorter and cas-
Ter route into the district.
When the Katmai volcano erupted
in 1912 and covered thousands Of
square miles with ash and pumice,
killing all vegetation and game and
wiping out more than one settlement,
it was regarded as "a great calamity.
: But the eruption uncovered strange
formation which is declared to be one
of the wonders of the world.
The smokes" literally thousands of
them, are clouds or Jets, of Steam under
various pressures, emitted from holes
and remarkably colored caverns in the
solidified volcanic clay. The entire val
ley, which is shaped somewhat like
clover leaf, seems to be gradually So
lidifying. The Indian who recently
guided a motion picture party said
many square miles, covered with semi
liquid hot mud year ago, are now
crossed without difficulty.
In one of the three arms Of the val
ley is a alive" glacier. at the foot Of
which is beautiful cObalt-blue lake
of hot water. In another arm is the
Falling mountain, down whose face
roll continually huge bOulders broken
off near the snOw-capped peaks by va
rlations of temperature.
Besides the scenic possibilities the
valley is said to possess vast deposits
of virtually pure sulphur. arsenic and
other chemicals. Black sand was found
in the many streams indicating posi-
bilities of gold.

No candidate can take the course
until he has first passed mental and

placed on probation for six months,
three months of which is spent in
school. Aside from bodily training the
men are given intensive courses in first

This is an incentive for them to do
