Health and Right Living
BY ROYAL q. COPELAN0, NJ. ID.
Former Commissioner of Health

Somewhere I saw this quotation
from Southey:
Il marvel not, O Sun that unto thee
In alteration, man should bow the
knee,
And pour the prayer Of mingled
awe and love.
For like a God thou art, and on the
way.
or glory sheddest. with benignant
ray,
Beauty and life and joyousness
from above"
Nothing that poet. mailman or
doctor can say In praise Of the sun
light Is too eXtravagant to be true.
To the sun we owe everything for
the health we enjoy.
You cannot be we'll. strong. vigor-
Gus. alert and magnetic without alb
Sorbing what sunlight can give.
There are qualities in light that
stimulate the circulation, enrich the
blood and add to length OF DAYS.
I never see a white livered. putty
c~omplexioned person without being
forced to restrain myself. ! Just long
20 read him a lecture about the inn
portance or light.
Not everybody can have sunshine
in the home. Many city houses ~
er get a ray. But. fortunately for us.
"skyshine" carries the ultraviolet
rays. From the sky and tbs clouds.
even though there Is no sunshine.
will come the helpful and health
giving rays.
I fear that the average person
fails 70 appreciate the important
part the skin plays in the battle Of
life. Unless the covering OF the body
Is kept clean. Is thoroughly aired
and exposed to light, its q is
robbed of one of the chief agencies
Of health promotion.
When cold weather comes many
Of us will shiver and complain OF
the temperature. III the skin be given
daily exposure. as ID should be, II
will grow strong and resistant. II
will be less violently affected by
extremes Of weather.
There Is a fad just now for sun
baths. 1t is the most sensible fad Of
recent years. II is to be hoped II
will not be short-lived.
Take advantage Of the summer
and fall months TO accumulate a
good coat Of tan. Then do not let II
fade out as winter comes. You will
be better now and all through the
year If your skin Is burned.

By Prof. A. F. BuddingtOn

The northern tributaries of Chickamin Glacier h e a d against those of Salmon Glac- fer. Ohickamin Glacier is about IT miles long, and about 10 miles of it lies in Alaska. The upper part flows south and the lower part in a general westerly direction.
 At the heads of the valley glaciers and in the high mount ain ridges and peaks there are great basins and ampitheatres, which have been eXcavated by processes connected with the presence or activities of the glaciers that have occupied them ill the past or are now oc- cupying them and with the snow fields that partly cover their steep back walls and side slopes. These basins, known as cirques, are found as low as 4,10O feet and are still locally in process of formation at alti- tudes of 4,500 feet or higher. The area south of the West Fork and west of Salmon River is a "fretted upland" whose rib-like ridges have been pro- duced by the backward and sideward erosion of the cir ques. The lateral ridges be- tween adjoining glacier basins have been worn away near their heads until many of them are not more than 100 feet wide. Locally they are covered with snow and are in process of being reduced to co.'s or low divides. A few isolated mount ain peaks have been left with one or more radiating short, narrow ridges. Narrow as are the ridges between the glac- iers, some of them afford good

NEW DISTRICT MAP
 NOW AVAILABLE

The new map of the Hyder mineral district compiled by Frank A. Metcalf, U. s. Miner al Surveyor, is now on sale in the local stores.
 The map is by far the most complete and servicable that has ever appeared, being based on the splendid contour map of the lower Salmon and Texas Creek sections prepared sever- al years ago by the U. s. Geo. logical Survey, to which MT. Metcalf has added the location and boundaries of all surveyed mineral lands, as we'll as the general location of numerous others as yet unsurveyed. In addition the map also displays the location of practically all the more prominent mining properties on the Canadian side of the boundary line be- tween the Bayview and the Sil- yer Tip. The location and boun- daries of the Canadian proper ties are based on official sur veys made by Dalby B. Mork- ill, B. c. Land Surveyor. The map is about as complete as can be achieved at the pres ent time and will meet pract- ically all ordinary require ments and MT. Metcalf is en- titled to the utmost praise for his effort to supply the long, felt need for a really servicable map of the Hyder district.

leys were completely filled, but such cirques must have been obliterated by the valley glaciers during the time of maximum ice flooding.
 In the West Fork valley op- posite Ferguson Glacier steep bluff faces below and a marked smoothing of slope and rounding of shoulders above indicate that the ice here filled the valley to an al- titude of 4,4O0 feet for a con- siderable time. On the north side of the West Fork glacial striae parallel to the valley were noted up to attitudes of 4,000 feet, and this altitude corresponds to a line above which there is a marked de- crease in the steepness of the slope.

travelling. Unusually fine ex- amples are the ridges at the head of Hummel Glacier, the ridge between the glacier above the Keno group of claims and the first small glac- fer west of Ferguson Glacier, and the higher part of the ridge on the east side of Ferg- uson Glacier on which the Sun set claims are located, These ridges are, to a considerable extent, coated with rock spalls. There is relatively little evil dence of the formation of cir ques either in the past or in the present in the Bear River or in the ridges north of the West Fork.
 Most of the valley glaciers can be easily travelled up to al- titudes of $500 to 4.200 feet, where crevasses usually make further progress difficult or impossible.
 The we'll rounded form of the mountain ridges up to and To- cally above 5000 feet and the glacially grooved and striated walls of the valleys indicate that the whole district has in the past been flooded with ice as high as 5000 feet. The ice must have flooded the valleys to a height of about 4,100 feet until a relatively recent time and then melted away very rapidly to a condition approx imately like that of the present time. This conclusion is based upon the fact that below 4,100 feet there is little or no evi- dence of the cirques that must certainly have been formed to some extent had the valleys not been filled with ice, which later withdrew too quickly to permit the excavation of cir ques at the lower attitudes. It is probable that in the Salmon River district cirques were formed at low levels during the first part of the last glacial epoch, while the snow line was descending and before the val

 Hidden Glacier occupies a hanging valley whose edge is 700 feet above the bottom of the valley of the West Fork. The glacier is fed by two great ice cascades, which descend at a gradient of about 2,000 feet to the mile. The glacier is readily traversed to an altitude of about 4,200 feet, at the foot of the ice cascades. Hidden Creek has cut a gorge 20 to 50 feet deep in the morainal ma terial and the bedrock at the foot of the glacier.
 Casey Glacier, like Hidden Glacier, occupies a hanging valley which, at the foot of the glacier, is about 500 feet above the bottom of the valley of the West Fork. Casey Glacier is easily traversed up to the foot of the ice cascades at its head, at about 4,O00 feet. The peaks above may be reached with difficulty by way of the south east arm, which affords access also to Thumb Creek by way of Gray Glacier.
 Ferguson Glacier is about 4 miles long. The head of Thumb Creek may be reached by going up Ferguson Glacier to the divide at about 4,600 feet and over the snow field and down steep snow-filled gulch which opens on the low CT slope of Thumb Glacier. From this point it is possible to travel up Thumb Glacier and over the divide at it's head to Greenpoint Glacier, a tributary of Chickamin Glacier.

Gas Is Necessity
For Comfort And
Real Convenience

Although Imperial Valley is
known to people living outside it's
confines as possessing a rather warm
climate, yet there are times when
the warmth of a radiant gas heater
is more than welcome. This is the
opinion of II. W. Barkhart, local
manager of the Inland Empire Gas
company. whose company installed
rhe gas. stoves in the California hc-
tel cafe and pipcd, the entire hotel
for room and hot water heaters.
"This remodeled hotel is .unqucs.
,ionably a great Improvement to tile
city" Burkhart stated. He addcd
that it is surprising how large !:
number of people are forced to pat
ronize auto camps and other hous-
.ng facilities because Of the lack of
hotel room.
The Inland Empire company has
been operating little over two
years in the valley and has dohc

Plenty OF Color
At California

With the present era dema uding

apparel and automobiles, the painter
has come into his own and is able
to give vent to his desires which
we're suppressed by the modes in
fashion during the last part Of the
nineteenth century and the first
quarter of the present one.
Homes arc no longer permitted TO
be drab affairs, and neither are ho-
tels. Rooms in which persons spend
their time while away from nome
demand a consideration for cheer.
t,llness and this has been achieved
in the California hotel by Walter
d. Pollard of this city, painting
contractor.
Pollard has succeeded in giving
pleasing tone to the walls and
ceilings Of the new addition, max
ing them artistic without being
harsh or glaring. Delicate shades
carefully blended into each other,
give an air of restfulness which is
a delight to the tired traveller and
TO those who make their permanent!
home at the hotel.
"Whether it be a backyard fence
OR the highly decorated home Of the
~ealthy, Americans demand colol
these days." says Pollard, "and the
painters of the country are cheer
fully giving it to them and getting
plenty of fun and satisfaction out
of it, too"
