Juvenile Officials Claim 80
Per Cent Are Due to
Free Rides

H'Don't help boys and girls to run
away from home by giving them free
auto rides. -
Sorrow is caused in hundreds Of
Southern California homes by thought
less motorists who give children lifts
along the roads and streets, according
to Automobile Club of Southern Cali
fornia officials.
County juvenile authorities through
out the southern and central sections OF
California have prepared figures to
show that 90 per cent of all runaways
are caused by free auto rides given TO
boys and girls by motorists. .
1t is also pointed ont by the Auto
club legal department that motorists
who pick up strangers in their ears
liable for heavy damages if the strang-
er is injured due to the careessness of
the drver-and an accident may hap
pen any time.
Besides the actual danger of getting
hit over the head by one of these
youths who often do not hesitate to
use piece of lead pipe if the oppor-
tunity presents itself, is the encourage
ment given to the boys to leave their
mothers, often penniless, and start out
to see the world for themselves, soon
becoming hOboes.
Southern California, it is pointed
out, is the most heavily motorized
section of country in the world, and
motorists must use more discretion here
than elsewhere to withstand the pleas

half a section. The dips away from
the summit are about 25 per cent,
but the shale is faulted SO that its
outcrops are repeated several times,
and the whole outcrop covers a larger
area than it would if not faulted. The
faults are all small, having a displace-
ment of less than 100 feet, and they
probably have not permitted the
escape of oil from the Kooteuai
sands. A well to@test this dome prop
erly should be drilled in the NE. u

nearly flat. Such a well would reach
the Cat Creek &? sand at a depth
Of about 800 feet and the large per
sistent sandstone OF the kootenai AZ
about 1000 feet.
The report of other observers and
meager observations of the writers in

domes more or less concealed by the
gravel that covers the terraces south

In most places where the bases of

would preclude the presence of oil Is
more than 60 per cent, the kootenal
formation in the vicinity of these Goals
has evidently not been metamorphosed
sufficiently to drive off any oil that
may have accumulated in it.
AS the rocks dip away from the
mountains and as the Bearpaw shale
is exposed in the Missouri river canyon
Is miles south of the mountains, the
domes probably have a large collecting
area for oil. The most promising sands
in the domes can be tested with rather
light drilling rigs. All the possible oil

Purer limestones, such as occur in the
Madison, bend sharply without break
ing and in this case upward migration
of oil should practically cease under
meath the Madison as there are no
displacements of more than a few feet
to be found at the surface.
THE lower Paleozoic strata are rich
in organic matter and the gathering
ground will probably exceed 100 square
miles. As yet no decisive test has
been made of the older Paleozoic rocks
in this state, although production is
obtained from Cambrian and younger
Paleozoic rocks in many North Amer
lean fields.
1T does not seem probable to judge
from the shape of the anticline that
this folding is closely related to lac
colithic agencies. Further no igneous
material can be found within a radius
of 10 miles"

Automobile Carries
More Passengers Than
Railroads of i. S.

The automobile is today the lead
ing passenger transportation agency
in the United States.
There are today $3.50 railroad
passenger coaches in use, having a
seating capacity of 2,270,0OO pas
sengers. The seating capacity of
$500, 900 automobiles now in use is
Al, 000.
Based on records for the last
five years, there should be 1900. 0OO.-
900 passenger miles to the credit
of rail facilities in 1929. The aver
age number of passengers per auto
mobile is two, and the average an
nual mileage is 5000. Hence the
automobile must be credited with
ia 00, 00o, 1000 passenger miles this
year.
The automobile business is the
most stable of the great industrial
enterprises.

Not Bad Cook But Bad stomach.

The word dyspepsia means literally
bad cook, but it will not be fair for
many people to lay the blame on the
cook if they begin the Christmas din
ner with little appetite and end it with
distress or nausea.
1t may not be fair for any to do that
let us hope so for the sake of the
cook!
The disease, dyspepsia, indicates a
bad stomach, that is a weak stomach,
rather than a bad cook, and for a weak
stomach we know of nothing else
equal to Hoods Sarsaparlla. This di-
gestive and tonic medicine helps the
stomach, gives it vigor and tone re-
lieves dyspepsia, creates an appetite,
and makes eating the pleasure it
should be.
The biliousness and constipation
found in SO many cases of dyspepsia
are gently and thoroughly relieved by
Hoods Pills, which act in perfect
harmony with Hoods Sarsaparilla.

mands, and run the entire plant, con-
slstlng of its three water wheels.
whereas under present conditions
put one wheel can be satisfactorily
run. In previous years it has been
necessary at various intervals to
greatly reduce the output of the Ellis
worth power house on account of the
shortage of water.
For the purpose of log-sluicing
there are to be two sluiceways con-
structed at different elevations thus

when desired. There is to be also
one submerged sluice gate. which
may be opened or closed, according
TO the requirements of the power
station. In past years there has
peen quite extensive numbering
operations carried on several miles
back of this dam and the logs have
been fioated down the Union river in
the spring drive. That there shall be
no interruption of any such future
operations these sluices have been
provided for
Aside from the construction of the
dam itself, it has been necessary, be-
cause of the land to be flooded, to do
considerable work on the highways
for several miles back in the country
on either side of the proposed reser-
volr. The dam when finished will
cause the water to flow back about
thirteen miles and to widen the
flowed area to the extent of two and
three quarters miles, at it's greatest
width, thereby making it necessary
to make fills at six different places
on the public roads, to keep the lat
ter from being submerged. Two Of
these fills are to be made in the town
of Mariaville, on the west side of
Union river, and four are to be made
in the town of Waltham on the east
side thereof. Goodwin's bridge,
Rankin's brook, Day brook, Hap
worth brook and Reeds brook, the
latter being the outlet of Green lake,
are the designated places for these
fills, and the work is being done un-
der a special contract with a we'll
known road builder, Mamie Rogers,
of Bangor, who is employing at this
time thirty men and twenty teams.
An Erie steam shovel loads the dump
carts in approximately twenty-five
seconds, with the best grade of
gravel which can be found in the To-
cality.
Two of the fills in the town of
Waltham are to be fourteen feet
high, or nearly to the top of the tele-
phone poles, as they now stand, with
relation to the present highway. AT
Little Meadow brook, where one OF
these fourteen foot fills will be made
the base will have width of sixty
three feet and the surface, twenty
one feet. Concrete culverts will be
installed to take care of the surplus
water.
1t is a coincidence that the amount
of filling to be used on the high
ways, namely $1,000 cubic yards, IL
the same amount that it will bt
necessary to use in the filing for the
dam.
Another fact worthy of mention il
that practically the whole crew OF
