FINISH Bic TUNNEL
UNDER THE S|ERRAS
13-MiIe Bore for Power
Project Completed in Rec
ord-Breaking Time.
ny the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
Los ANGELES, March s-The Flor
cnce Lake tunnel, IS feet high and
the same width, extending more than
J 3 miles, mostly through solid granite
in snaky line under the high Sier-
ras, is a construction feat that has
drawn the attention of the engineer
ing world. 1t has just been COM
pleted.
The tunnel is one of the most inn
portant works in the Big Creek-San
Joaquin River project of the Southern
california Edison Company. The en-
tire project will bring in 1,407, 600
horsepower, and, with it's transmits
sion lines, substations and accessor-
les, will cost s375,000,000.
SIT O.OOO Cost of Tunnel.
The tunnel itself cost S17,O00,O 900. 1t
was started in the Fall of 1920, and
since then without stop the work
mas been maintained in relief shifts.
The scene of operations is 250 miles
North of Los Angeles and 35 miles
south Of the Yosemite Valley. The
purpose of the tunnel is to convey
water from the Florence Lake water
shed, source of the South fork of the
San Joaquin River, through the bar
rier of a 10,000-foot mountain ridge
into the watershed of Huntington
Lake. Huntington Lake is the reSer-
voir of supply for the four great
units of the electric company which
supplies a large part of central and
southern California with light and
power.
World records for tunnel construc-
tion have fallen during the four
years progress in the Sierras. The
:3-mile bore was divided into three
sections, with two lateral adits cut
into granite slopes and a crew work
Ing each way from each adit. The
bore was completed a year and half
sooner than the most optimistic esti-
mates contemplated when the tunnel
was started.

Housewives Urged to
Help in the Campaign
to Eradicate Flies

Mrs. f. 3. Fuller, chairman of the
community service committee of the
Ten Thousand club, announces that
her committee goes on record as
heartily endorsing the recent move
meEt started by the city board of
health against the menace of flies.
Mrs. Fuller urges all elub women
and housewives to do all in their
power to "swat the fly now, while
the season is young, in order to
make the campaign most effective.
Garbage pals and open contain
ers without lids constitute a grave
menace in this community and act
as breeders of millions of flies, = de-
clared Mrs. Fuller today. Just
why some housewives who otherwise
are model housekeepers should be so
careless about this one particular
thing is difficult to understand, un-
less. it is that the garbage IkaI, is.
usually far removed from the house,
sitting III a back alley odt of sight.
just the same, unless it is kept COW
cred and thoroughly cleaned every
time the garbage collector visits the
premises, it becomes one of the
greatest attractions for Mr.. Fly and
His large family
Every housewife who reads this
warning and whose garbage pail is
not thoroughly protected. is urged
10 Immediately see that proper ia
cilities are afforded for the sani-
tary handling Of garbage, which al
ways accumuIatcs so much faster
this time of the year than III the
winter months.
