ROAD BUILT THROUGH
MOUNTAIN. OF GLASS

Ever hear of mountain. of glass?
Or glass road? No, xhis isn't a
yarn about a gE,ss pyramid in the
rear If somebody's bottle factory, nor
story of broken-bottls road police
trap for speeders.
A mountain of solid glass was the
biggest problem confronting the con-
struction engineers who built the
magnificent road system which is one
of the finest artificial features of the
Yellowstone National Park.
How they solved the problem by
methods hitherto unheard Of in road
construction is one Of the most inter-
esting freaR stories in the history Of
roadmakng.
When the special geological report
of the scientists attached 10 the Unit
ed States Geological Survey was sub
mitted 10 the U. S. Government En-
gineers, before construction work
was started, nothing very remarka-
BILE was noted, except the statement
that, for three+quarters of mile
along the proposed river route, there
was a seemingly impenetrable noun
tain of glass running sheer down to
the river.
Road construction was started in
other parts of the immense domain,
while the engineers prepared TO at
tack the mountain, which was really
a survival of the Cretaceous and sub
sequent Tertiary Periods might have
been yesterday in the history of yell
lowstone, whose story goes back to
the first cooling of the earth's sur
face.
Giant blasting powders and heavy
charges of dynamite were used, with
as little effect on the adamant glass
wall as a wooden mallet. Finally,
when ell the usual methods had fail
cd, IA surveyor with the engineering
party, who had formerly been a glass
blower suggested heating the noun
tain. and spraying II afterwards with
water to make II disintegrate.
Since the standard methods had
proved unsuccessful the engineers
were inclined to think this idea might

of Indiana: "A gentleman who felt
that he owed the U. S. shipping board
100000 and who wanted to get the
thing behind him came down here
TO make settlement with them. They
had to resort to more than 21O
sources to search and find out the
condition of the account existing be-
tween this man and the shipping
board As a result of the investiga7
ton they determined that instead of
the man owing them 100000 they
owed him $500, 900"

terms OF the will without chopping
up IL elephants, and thereby serious
ly impairing their value. Finally
they applied to a wise neighbor,
Seun-punk, for ADVICE. Seun-punk
had an elephant OF his own. He drove
It into the yard with the II. and
said:
Now we will suppose that your
father left these Is elephants. Fuen-
huen, take your half and depart" So
Fu'n-huen too knine elephants and
went his way.
Now, Nu-pin," said the wise man,
take your third and go" SO Nu-pin
took his six elephants and travelled.
Now Ding-bat," said the wise
man, take your ninth and begone."
So Dingbat took two elephants and
vamocsed. Then Seun-punk took
his own elephant and drove it home
again.

logs were hauled and piled along the
base of the mountain, and fires start
ed along the three-quarter mile sec

Energetic crews piled logs on the
fire for several days, and after the
desired heat had besu registered, the
intrepid engineers directed the spray
ing of the mountain face with water

with the smaller pieces on top. The
temperature changes in the park
cause continual clipping Of tn noun
tain, resulting in the surface of the
road being covered with small pieces
of this glass-likN material, which
ground down by constant traffic
make a very durable roadbed.
This short three-quarter mile
stretch of road, while wonderfully
constructed and built to last for CEN
turtles, is unequallad anywhere in
the world for its ability to innict
punishment on automobile tires Be-
cause of the. abrasive forces en-
countered, tire tires must lrave a very

A NEW TALE OF THE YUKON

Out of the frozen North comes the

mans terra firma in order to drink in
the seductive melodies of jazz band.
One evening while the denizens of

band concert, the sea lion crawled up
the beach, and along the street and
finally settled himself down on the
porch of house near the band-stand.
Thers he stayed until the concert was
over. when he hied himself back on
his hom ward journey. But before
he reached the beach he was shot to
death by some heartless pedestrian.

do not believe the sea lion was at

but that he was chased out by black
fish, many of which had been seen in
