AERIAL ROUTE OVER ANDES ADVOCATED
 BY BRITISH FLYER

LONDON, May ablshment of an aerial route from the Pacific to the Amazon as means of sur mounting difficulties or road travel among the Andes, is advocated by G. M Dyott, until recently squad ron commander of the British Royal Naval Air Service.
 There are no serious difficulties
 in the way. so far as the schemes practicability is concerned" Mr by ott told the Royal Geographical So ciety. We have heard of the great height of the Andes, but there are low attitudes at which they may be crossed. One of the Andes ridges can be negotiated at height Of : .o00 feet, but there is another ris- ing to 15,60O feet.
 Peru" he continued, ''is occult arly suited to aerial traffic. Aerial highways will undoubtedly play a large part in the future development of that country. It is of importance that rapid communication should be established between the interior and the coast, and in order to do.a this. the arplane must come to the res. cue"
 Discussing the difficulty of travel ling by road, Mr Dyott said that 1t | took him five days to travel from one part in the Andes to another, 1 whereas the airplane would cover l the distance in fifteen minutes, and
 in another stage of the journey 1t l took him exactly a week to travel
 a. distance which would be negotiated 1 by the airplane in 30 minutes.

Los ANGELES, Cal, Mar, Is
/ An auti-parking ordinance, barring
automobiles from n large scctlan OF
the downtown business district here
during seven and half hours zach
Weekday, has created teapot tent
/ pest here in municipal circles. and
has arrayod patrons Of the street car
companies against those who use
automobiles aud trucks
The new ordinance, effective April
10, has been attacked with rereron-
dun petition, and It is stated that
nearly all of the 5000 signatures
necessary to force a special election
on the question have been obtained.
The referendum was started by GER
tain towel supply companies. which
said that the limits placed on de-
liveries would put them out of busi-
ness.
The ordinance was passed at the
recommendation of the state railroad
dtNlStu tue
Gil that il such step was not taken
to relieve congestion down town,
where $4,000 autcs are parked on
the streets daily, it would have to
authorize the local street car COM
panies to increase their fares from
five to probably seven cents.
The ordinance provides time
limit of two minutes for passenger
automobiles stopping at stores.

It makes exceptions for ambulances
and some other classes of vehicles.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
+ GRAY HAIR NOW
DRUGGIST SAYS LADIES ARE
USING RECIPE OF SAGE TEA
AND SULPHUR

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when 1t fades turns gray, dull and
lifeless, Is caused by lack of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmothers
made up mixture Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful. and thousands of women
and men who value that even color,
that beautiful dark shade OF hair
which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture, improved by the addition of 9TH
.er ingredients by asking at any drug
store for 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" which
darkens the hair so naturally, SO
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
1t has been applied. You Just damp
en- sponge or soft brush with Il ana
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. BY morn
Ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound Is that,
besides beautifully darkening the
hair after few applications 1t also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives 1t an appearance of abundance.

FEW WANT TO BE
MEXICAN CITIZENS

JUAREZ, Mex, Mar. 1S.--Eight
japanese, two Chinese, one Ameri-
can and one Turk have formally ex-
pressed their desire to become citi-
zens of Mexico by means of applica-
tions filed at the city hall here,
according to. a summary of the muni-
cipal activities of Juarez during
1919. The applications were for
warded to Mexico City for action.
During the same period, 32,579
persons, chiefly Mexicans, passed
through this port into the United
States, the report sets forth In
this connection praise is given by the
compiler of the document, Mayor ].
Trinidad Remero, to the American
consulate here for its "considerate
attitude toward the (Mexican) au-
thorities and public in general"
On an average, about 10 persons
were arrested in Juarez daily during
1919, Mayor Romero's figures show
ing total of 1866 for. the year.
Considerable space is given in the
report to the improvement of the
police force, one of the innovations
being the Introduction, now under
contemplation, of telephones directly
connected with the police station. A
police patrol automobile truck was
added during the year..
The city's fire department is still
a thing of the future. Large fires in
Juarez are now handled by the Ell
Paso fire department, while small
blazes are extinguished by the use
of buckets, tubs and similar methods.
The purchase of $4,000 fire engine
is being considered by the municipal

forth as being the achievements of

SALMON DEPLETED
BY MUCH FISHING

OLYMPIA, Wash. Mar. is
Washington's salmon industry. once
among the leaders In the states nc
tivitles. has been almost depleted by
the intensive fishing OF tho past six
years. l.. II. Darwin, state fish com
missioner, declared in his annual re-
port filed with Governor Louis +.
Hart.
Creation by the Legislature OF n
fisheries commission to take full
charge OF fishing operations In Wash
ington waters was recommended by
Mr.. Darwin.
He urged that foreigners be bar.
red from fishing In the state waters,
because, he said, tho destruction, In
n large part. has been accomplished
by persons not citizens of the United
States. During the war. he said, for
eign fishermen banded themselves
together. took the lead in the indus
try and increased the prices.
Sockeye salmon runs OF the Puget
Sound have almost been wiped out
by the heavy fishing. the report stat
ed. The Silverside and Chum or Dog
salmon have also been reduced in
number. The Humpback salmon runs
probably will be attacked by the fish
ermen next and. in n few years, the
commissioner predicted they. too.
probably will be depleted.
Columbia River. Grnys Harbor and
Harbor waters OF Washing
ton. have not suffered to the extent
of Puget Sound Mr.. Darwin said,
largely because of the greatly in
creased hatchery work. But as the
fishermen are beginning to take Inn
mature salmon and are preventing
the fish from reaching their spawn
Ing grounds, It is probable these wat.
ers will suffer more soon.
