(RA. lrnifad PrnccA

GENEVA, Jain. THE protracted
drought which obtained for the past
two months in Switzerland caused

Gus Rhine falls at Schaffhousen have
dwindled down to mere trinkle and

to steam power. Barges, cargo boats
ard other river craft were strung

miles unable to reach Basle.

M uE Law OPPOSITION

Ant blue law legislation will be on
the program of IA lumber of state leg
islatures this session. Efforts To bring
about an enforcement OF these old laws
has awakened the people and the law
makers to a realization of the neces-
sity Of repeating all dead laws, lest
they he revived " some smart officers
or overzealous churchmen who fail to
realize that the world Is progressing
and that the laws which governed the
colonies OF America are not all fitted
TO serve the interests of the people of
today.
1t il doubtless true that something
should be- done to turn the minds OF
certain people from sport TO something
more seriors and TO make church At
tendance more general. but II CANNOT
be done by compulsion. 1t must pe
done by attraction.
The country has so changed since
those laws were made that the ma
jority of the people are decidedly
against them. Even the clergy, except
in isolated cases. are not strong TOT
their enforcement. They do. of course
believe In keeping the SABBATH holy, III
not commercializing Sunday. but they
do not believe In making 1t such a day
as some of the extreme radicals de-
mnnd.

ods-The Forms Of Mountains and
Valleys as They Now Exist Have
Been Largely Carved Out by Erosion
During Last Era of Geologic Time.

Tens of millions of years ago, IN the
Archeozoic era, which is the most re-
mote age known in the history of the
earth, there were no Adirondack
mountains, according TO William ].
Miller, professor OF geology at Smith
college, in tracing the history Of the
mountains. Ocean water spread over
the whole region, rs well as much Of
Southeastern Canada. On that sea
bottom layers Of sands, muds and
lines We're deposited, the strata ac-
cumulating through long ages until
the pile was thousands of feet thick.
The sands and muds were formed
by the wearing away of lands which
have left nc known records while the
lines represent the remains of shells
of organisms that inhabited that
ancient ocean.
Through the agency of heat and
crystalllzation,' says Prof. Miller,
writing In the Conservationist, the
strata became altered into rocks
known as quantities., schists and crys-
talline lime stones OF marbles. These
rocks comprise what is known as the
G~reenville series of strata-the old
est of all Adirondack rocks. These
traces Of a forgotten world, which
still mostly preserve their arrange
ment In layers, may be observed In
numerous areas throughout the Adj
rondack region today, particularly In
the vicinity of Port Henry, Paradox
Lake, keene and Minerva, In Essex
county; Blue Mountain Lake and
Indian Lake Village, in Hamilton
county; Graphite. North Creek and
Chestertown, in Warren county and

that great masses of molten rock
were forced upward into the Grenville
strata, lifting, fitting, or breaking
them TO pieces. There were at least
two such invaslons by molten masses
the first Of which Is represented by a
rock known as anorthosite. Much Of
this rock Is dark blush gray and
coarse grained. but some of 1t Is light
gray and medium grained. 1t is the
principal rock throughout an area OF
about 1900 square miles, mostly In
Essex and Franklin counties. The
dark variety forms the main bulk OF
rock In the Marcy-McIntyre range, the
Sentinel range, and the mountains
just west of Lake Placid. The light
gray anorthosite is finely exhibited in
the northern half of Mount White
Face. including its summit.
Action Of Weather and Streams.
The other molten mass, forced up.
ward somewhat later than the an
orthosite, Is now represented by gran
tie. varying 10 a rock called syenite.
On weathered surfaces these rocks
range In color from brown and green
ish gray to pink. Outside of the an.
orthosite area, the granite and syenite
make up far greatest bulk of the
Adirondack rocks now visible. and
constitute nearly all of the more
prominent ridges and peaks.
