A journey on the C.P.R. reveals to the observer the relics of the most ancient times to Archeogric and Posterogrie. It also in- roduces him to the names of the formations as Arcetian, Algoma, Ludburg, Laur- etica etc. 20 blown by the winds I can say a good thing on the present time, the movement; which is that of my own experience: down in America. Or ancient times, the movement coming under the influence of a modern color, caused to the country in which he dwelt. and his own hands and feet.

December 23 -1926 Started in California at one P.M. Left Penn. Station in Cincinnati at 4:05 P. M., the Cincinnati Limited Cost New Haven to Cincinnati $ 35.62 Extra fare 3.60 but as he train was run one hour late was retailed 1.20 Dec 24-1926 Had lunch at Bilton House with Albert and then spent the afternoon at Philo. At 6:30 we are in Norwood at Albert home. Found all about as well as could be expected. Found light rain one day. Got my ticket to Chicago $ 14.25 Dec 25 -1926 Left Norwood at 10:30 A.M. and at 11:30 came a family reunion of the Johnuchets at Philo house in Price Hill. Had a good time talking all sorts of things. Rain slut and finally snow all the day. Was to leave at 9 P. M. in Chicago, but did not get started until 9:45 P.M. = had over time.

Chicago Dec 26 - 1976. Sunday. In spite of starting ten minutes late our arrival in town out Chicago = 7:05 A.M. & at my studio to Madison this (462), sent a telegram to Toratchfield, had breakfast at the station. This is the new "Union" station, a very large and sumptuous affair, no money was saved anywhere in building it. Out to Madison on the Milwaukee - St Paul. Left Chicago on M. St. Paul R.R. for Madison at 8 A.M. and got to Madison at 12:30. Toratchfield with Lawson was at station, but we failed to see each other. Torcha cat me to Toratch Field house at half an hour later he arrived. In the afternoon Toratchfield, Lawson, Drinker and I counted the ballots of the C. S. A. As usual my men was elected. Rybee got 13 maps. Lots of ice on the ground and fog for cars and in fact a bad. Found the Toratchfields are well.

Madison Dec 27-28-29-1926. For three days attended two meetings of the G.S.O. The novel program was nothing of a striking new order, Chamberlain address fine done in the Planetarium by others was remarkable. All well done for anyone and all the more so for a man over 80 years old. His mind was bright as ever. Saw many people and enjoyed the meeting. The banquet was fine and Leib was track master. He was a right good and humorous time. It was all over at 10.30; began about 7.30 P.M. Wednesday evening Tom helped took me out Downtown to the Madison Club to dinner and hear Prof. Leroy who later in spoke on the Serbi Desert. He spoke to the Seton Gray Club of 18 men. Tuesday was cold and down to zero. A light snow Monday night. Wednesday was stuck cold.

Madison - Chicago Dec 30 - 1926 With Dunbar started at 9:05 for Chicago. when we arrived at 1:30 P.M. A bright warm winter day. Had a good talk trip there. Bought a ticket and berth to Little Rock, Arkansas (29 3/4) and received my baggage. We then spent 2 hours at the Field Museum, and at 6:15 P.M. Jane left on the Chicago and Alton for St. Louis and Little Rock; at St. Louis we from Missouri Pacific Line. December 31 - 1926 Enroute to Little Rock. A little snow and ice and much mud down to Shawport, Ark. A clouded cool day, and the swamps every- where reflect with water. At Poplar Bluff we leave the Ozarkian - Beebe mountain chain and turn southward and go on the flat Mississippi bottoms with their hard woods and small groves from trees. Our train in two hours later. Put up at La. Fayette Hotel, a new one.

December 31-1926 Little Rock Called at the Second Presbyterian Church and found them Rev. Hoy Dratton Smith, but he was out. Then walked to Capitol Hill to see the Capitol Building, built in the conventional style of capitol's patterned after Washington. Built of Indiana white outside, and inside of Vermont marble which gives a somberness and dead appearance. A big flag, painting or any color to relieve the gray-whiteness. The House and Senate Chambers are small and equally unimpressive. Then wrote two letters. Little Rock has 45,000 people. Later walked on Main Street and out on one of the bridges across the Arkansas River, which is crossed by two stone-arched and three iron bridges. The river is deep red and at this time I found a rather impressive river. Mountain ridges some hundreds of feet high cross the river to the other side of the city. Rock formations are rising tellies of dark blue in color. At eight P.M., Rev. Hoy Dratton Smith called to see me. He talked a while.

and [illegible] asked me to his study in the Second Presbyterian church. The grand cost $25,000 and the two buildings $200,000. Built fve years ago. His study is a splendid room with all of the walls covered with book shelves stuck full; he must have 5000 books all catalogued by his wife, and loaned to members of the church. Smith is a North Carolina man of Scotch and German ancestry. Edu- cated in a small college of the state with one year at Clemson. A liberal church man all through, holding that the Bible is not inerrant. Regards the Fundamentalists and them holding that the Bible is inerrant and the divine word of God, as desperately wrong and at least 50 years behind the time of the Post- test Christians. He respects the Arkansas Legislature to join an anti-evolution law. This winter. Lots of noise last night and shooting out of the old farm.

"Little Rock, Arkansas January first, 1927. Rev'd Smith called on his closed car at 10:30 to show me the city. Out to Country Club on the upper plateau where I had a good view of the environment. (coming this life too far away from home) The plateau is much dissected. The County Club is slightly "Big Rock" which he told first stood and now the U.S. Barnard's Little Rock is farther down the Arkansas river. My train is late 45 minutes. The day is beautiful, balmy and sunny. The average winter temperature is about 72 degrees here at Little Rock. One gets off at Benton to go to Hot Springs. Rev'd Roy Watson Smith, Pastor of Second Presbyterian church corner of Third and Gaines street. Home at 819 West Fourth st. Left for Texarcana at 3:45 and had to wait until 6:45 for train to Shreveport. Drivell around in Triston Landing Town for an hour. of 6:30 p.m./ Got to Shreveport about on time. Mrs Teas and Mr. Spruner met me and put me up at the Washington Hotel built two years ago.

Shreveport, La. Jan 2-1927 Last night talked for an hour with Tress and Sprouse who is working for himself. Mr. Tress is with the Shremble Co. Both are Eastern- ers Texas from New Jersey and Sprouse from Baltimore. Spent all the morning with Sprouse and Tress in the former's office, talking on my crops Harriss and the geology of Guatemala and Belize visited by Sprouse about a year ago. Learn't a good deal about the leading domes of Harriss. In the afternoon and evening worked on my crops and correcting the things learned in the morning. Then Sprouse took me in his car for a drive for 1/2 hours. In the evening worked on my crops again.

HEAR LECTURE BY YALE MAN Dr. Charles S. Schuchert Ad- dresses Geological Society Monday Dr. Charles S. Schuchert, emeritus professor of paleontology at Yale university, noted geologist and strat- igrapher and foremost authority on the paleogeography of North Amer- ica, addressed a large gathering of gelogists and men interested in the oil industry here Monday night at a meeting of the Shreveport Geographi- cal society. Doctor Schurchert outlined the trend on modern thought relating to the origin of petroleum deposits. He emphasized the importance of micro- organisms as a source of oil. Doctor Schurchert traced the de- velopment of the paleogeography of North America from earliest times to the present, emphasizing Llanoris, a huge ancient land mass which up to Cretaceous times, he said, occu- pied a large part of Mississippi, Lou- isiana and Texas. He pointed out how the denudation of this great mountain region supplied the great thickesses of materials that now make up the Ouachita and Arbuckle mountains of Oklahoma and Arkan- sas. He brought out the probable origin and age of the Louisiana salt deposits and the influence of Llanor-is upon the structural features now found in the oil fields of Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. Dr. Schurchert has consented to deliver another address tonight in which he will discuss the fallacies of Wegener's continental displac- ment theory. This theory which has recently been widely discussed by gelogists, postulates the westward migration of the continents whereby the Americas have been separated from Europe and Africa and drifted westward to their present positions. In this theory Wegener endeavors to explain the origin of the Rocky mountains and the Andes mountains and many other features of the earth's geologic history. This meeting will be held tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the city hall.

CE FIVE CENTS PER COPY SELF POISON BOOZE FIGHT RAGES IN CONGRESS Personal Observance of Dry Law by Members Under Attack in Talks Washington, Jan. 3 (AP).—The con- troversy over deaths during the holi- day season from drinking poisoned alcohol reached both the senate and house floors Monday as soon as con- gress reconvened. At both ends of the capitol the personal conduct of members in the observance of the dry law was questioned, and before sunset the discussion had reached the treasury, where both Secretary Mel- lon and Lincoln C. Andrews, the pro- hibition enforcement chief, issued statements. Caustic Speeches Made. While Representative Celler, Demo- crat of New York, was accusing his colleagues in the house of “drinking to excess,” Senator Edwards, Demo- crat of New Jersey, in a lengthy speech in the senate was condemning the “hypocrisy of some representa- tives of the people who vote dry and drink wet.”

Alexandria, La., Jan 3 - Monday. Read various reports of the geology of A-W. La and applied the information to my maps. At noon had lunch with about 25 gologists and oil co. men who dine regularly at the Washington Hotel each Monday mom. At 7.30 P.M. Staged my address on the Evolution of Llanosin and its environs seen liven in Chamber of Commerce Hall, a small me. hung up 22 maps. Had an audience of about 35 men. Talked about one a half hours and then discussed some questions for a half hour longer. At the hotel talked for nearly another hour with Mr Moody, a graduate of Univ of California where I first met him in 1916 during the meeting of the G. A. O. S. Retired at 11 P.M. tired.

Shreveport, La Jan 4 Tuesday After breakfast packed up, and then called on Mr. J.L. Dry of the Palmer Corporation. Recites on separate sheet. Had lunch with Spooner, Teas, and others. C.L. Moody of Ohio City was present, is a graduate of Univ. of Cal. and a critic of work in geology. Then visited my home with Spooner, when I went back to the hotel to get ready for the evening lecture. At 9:30 P.M. lectured in City Hall in a small room to about 40 school girls in the Desert Day. Everyone was deeply interested, and about ten came forward to thank me for the lecture. Finished at 9:30 P.M. All my expenses and railway to Houston are paid for. At 10 P.M. I am in the sleeper and at 11 the train comes on to Houston, Texas.

Houston, Texas June 5 Wednesday bided on time at 7:30 A.M. Put up as usual at Rice Hotel. At ten o'clock called on Ray Baker and talked shop until noon hours. Is strongly of the opinion that the San Andreas = Capitan and that Jess = Delaware. The transition northward appears to be un- mistakable. The Chupadera of Harton is too broad a term and includes all of the above. Had lunch with Baker. Spent the afternoon with Miss Ellison talking paleogeography. She does not at all believe that the Cahuachina is spreading last turns south into Gulf trump La; she ends the sea in a cul de sac as I used to have it. Then he ground that marine faunas occur north changing south into haeliik ocean and apparently salt water deposits. Spent the evening at Bakers home.

Houston - Austin, Texas January 6 - 1927. Left Houston for Austin at 8:50 A.M. Got to Austin at 2.45 P.M. a bright and a fine day. Put up again at Badlers Hotel. Took a little walk, bought a New York Times of last Sunday Jan 2 and the Review of Reviews. Wrote a letter to Torahsfel and Le Vene. Spent the evening at Lellards home and got back to the hotel at 10.30 P.M. Of the four visiting Professors at Texas University - Schuchart, Keith, Davis and Harris - I had by far the most students. Towards the last Davis had but a single student, but he made up by giving a lecture on Evolution to least five times before the towns people.

"Austin, Friday Jan. 7 - 1927 A bright and early day, Packed the two different so that Donald take but one suite case on the Geological Excurs- sion starting this afternoon for the Marble Falls area and San Angelo. Mr. Plummer is to bed. Had lunch at Dellands home and to meet Professor Harris and his wife, Started away at 1:30 P.M. in a Ford car for San Saba where we arrived at 6 P.M. and camped. The private house I stood at six years ago is to entertain about 90 geologists. Of course all must be uncomfortable. Dellands and I am welcomed at the Judge's home. Plummer too sick during his autopsy 5: pm. Fort Worth and had to give up the trip. Ac- cordingly Dellands is to lead the first day,

Dan Data, Saturday Jun 8 1927 Left of at 6:30 and at 7.40 we an M 3 gails cont to a fault into a trim if atleast 80 fath. Ellensburg warlany 2 fat y Brase descent by Grandy Girt, Dan about 10-15 fm y Barnes - the Division had Gastirrenas, The Barnes is in fault relation, upended, against the Grattle Falls. Then drove back to Dan Data and to the various localities visited one years ago. In the Barnes over the agulation points. Then to Royal Graft to see the Granite Falls; here the basal strata redded chief lie under Granite Falls. [B2549] Then mtr the Smithsoni Shale, localit he- side the river, got a lot y good points here. Le thru little tops on fm Beede, Dan to label them and return me half 5 km. Then trips to Ellensburg an Upper Contrie roting on Peck Daddle schist. Left to Brady at 6.30 P.M. The Chamber y Commerce gave us a Banquet = a pm dinner.

San Angelo, Jan 9. Sunday. Arose at Brade at 6 A.M. and had break-fa at 6.45. At 7.30 we are off to spend today seeing the Permian. Iron ore had a flow out and fell into the procession of about 60 cars and 135 people. When we caught up with the crowd it was on the banks of the Colorado river. Here near the top of the little bluff is the top of the Cisco during a room of crushed Oeitzas and small Seminale. On top of it rests the basal Drichita in which I saw no fossils. The Craig Beede runs the expedition and describes the Permian. Got nothing out of the days train. The Drichita is not red. Saw the top line at Ralliff on the little Clear Fork is of red shales with a few gray of a Hurst-white dolomite in thickness of 250 feet. Fossils scarce, one gave ours Ordiliceras about 3 1/2 inches across. Stopped at the Diploid place where Drake collected the nautilids described by Hyatt. San Angelo Finally saw the Oondotus and shales (Coral deposits) and conglomerate north of Bronte.

"Then back to Bonito when we left the exp- edition. Then on direct to San Angelo where we arrived at 5:30 P.M. Was put in a room with two beds, sharing Mr Johnson who has a quarry somewhere. The day was aimless, dirty and unsa- tisfactory, San Angelo - Austin Jan 10. Monday. It was 9 A.M. before we started for Brady, 86 miles N.E. of San Angelo. We arrived at 11:45. Riding in the front seat of the car was much better goin than yesterday. Between these places the country is almost a continuation table; it is one of the last flat miles coming into Brady that the land is undulating 30 miles. Left Brady at 12:30 to get to Mason. Coming within 2 miles of the San Saba river came upon three herded cattle that turned out to be the Dillburns - Jeff Cantrian, how many tributary streams and Billingsville Andrews. Five cliffs along San Saba river.

gray south to mason Record of the river valley we saw the next lowa thin ?li bedded at shale=Hyper Cambrian and finds the hard sticky ^ and argillaceous. further SE. sandstone. Then came red granite and finally schist. In place near to N.[?] Mason saw sticky sandstone and finally that the town is built on sticky sandstone. The state map is all wrong in this matter. From Mason to Austin it is 120 miles. Left Mason 2:30 P.M. Ten miles S. of Mason we are again in hard sticky = Hyper C. mostly gneiss and schist. At 13 mile S. once sticky, bare sticky at 16 and SE. Between schist and greens. The schist and greens continues to 25 miles S of Mason where the Comanchian rests directly on these ancient complexes. Left to Fredericksburg in due time. Thirteen miles east of Fred. in the Pedernales river bottom saw the Ellenstrugen exposed. It continues exposed far to the NE of Houston City. See State Map. Comanchian overlies it. Left to the hotel at Austin at 7:30 P.M. Great crowd here; tomorrow the state Legislature meets.

Austin, Texas, Jan 11 - Tuesday. Wrote letters until 11 A.M. Then went to the Capitol to see the beginning of the Texas Legislature. Promptly at noon the session was called to order. First prayer, then the call of all the counties, when they came sworn in. The Legislature was then in orderly order. Then roll call, when five speeches were made in the campaign for some speaker were made. Election of Speaker announced, when the Temporary Chairman (a good looking and well dressed middle aged and well set lady) swore in the Speaker who then addressed the Legislature. I left at 1.25, but the session soon came to an end. In the afternoon worked on the Glen Art paper and adjusted the mistakes made by Philip King. Had P. King to dinner and talked on Glen Mt land his word until 10.30 P.M. Nothing new came out of this discussion. He is to turn up at sale this fall, and to work in his degree.

Austin, Texas Jan 12 - Wednesday Packed up to go to mass to San- Antonio, and Tucson, Arizona. Had lunch with the Texas Legislators. Then came ten Jews. Prof. Simmons was about. Spent the afternoon talking with Alertois Whitney and Aldine, also Lords dale. At the evening called on Mrs. Lellars. Austin, Texas Jan 13 - Thursday. Purchased ticket to Tucson, and then walked around the city for an hour. Had to lunch at the hotel Mrs. Lellards and Mr. and Mrs. Lords dale. Left Austin 4.30 P. M. (45 minutes late) for San Antonio. The day is bright but decidedly cool. Will get to S. A. at 7 P. M. Was transferred to S.P.R.R. and then walked into the center of San Antonio to have dinner at the Beaten Hotel. There met Horton only my student of seven years ago who is just out of Mexico where he has been

doing geology for the last six months. He says he has seen in Craterilla as much as 1000 foot in depth of artine - with large granite boul- ders. Age probably Jurassic. The granite was made of an ancient granitic land to the east = any Llanoire. Dart Le had also seen Trianic but I much doubt this. It seemed to me that he had but little of his geology in final dated order. at the depot For an hour showed Horton my Geoger- graphic maps and explained to him Llanoire and the Mexican Paleopic geosynclines. Got into the sleeper at 10 O. M. Hand an upentart. The train moved out at 3 A.M.

En Route to Tucson, Jan 14. Friday. Got up at 7 A.M. near Del Rio and in the dinner saw the Devils River crossing and shortly after roads the high bridge over the Pecos River. At 11.30 A.M. are on at San Bernardo. The train moves as regularly and the various stations are passed in time. Set to El Paso at 8.45 P.M. and here one get warm. Jan. 17th = 7.45 P.M. It is cold and windy here. Had my fourth view of the Marathon Basin and the Gran Mts - a glorious view it was to Tucson 1 and 2 P.M. Retired early as I got off at 4 A.M. at Tucson. Tucson, Arizona, Jan 15- Saturday- Bothered at 4 A.M. in a moonlight warm early morning. Could not get a room at the Santa Rita. Or went across the street to the Hotel Postroffe, Then went over to the University, and in the grounds met LeSorett who is visiting here at Tucson. Then called on Dean Butler and Dr. T.

Ransome, Drtn Styanms but none were m. Finally met Drddcle who showed me his Mississippian fauna collected at Jerome. Says he has nearly 100 forms, many new and that the type appears to be mainly Redwall. What seems of the finds lead me rather to think of late Kinderhook - Burlington. Says there are also St Genevieve suggestions, but I doubt if any of those are other than my varying forms. All in all the type is Redwall and apparently = Madison. Then Dr was shown a lot of peculiar gastropods from near Jerome, and which Styanams was calling Advisian because he thought he sees gastropod percula. Then Lawson walked in and it soon became apparent that he differed from Styanams saying they are in an undisturbed section underlain by Upper Devonian and overlain by the Mississippian. I then looked more carefully at the "perculs" and saw that they are Hiralos and possibly of Mytilacra and Lucina. Clearly the fauna is Upper Devonian. A tuberculate gastropod is common that Whitecars describes from the.

Maclonge County. Mr. Ormer Ransom, who was much agitated and soon told me that Emma Hunt is expected to fire President Marvin; pretty all in the faculty standing by Marvin and dare to leave. The situation is very bad. In the evening called on Mr. and Mrs. Ransom. Heard none of the University affair. Write Berkey a letter saying that Ransom may soon tent up place.

Tuesday Jan 16 - Sunday. Near ten in the morning trot a walk out to the University and some met Professor Stiga- nar who was to let me up. Together we then walked over to his office and he showed me a lot of his own recent collections. The Devonian fish fauna is far more regular- tion Loring Cruell one. Considerably higher comes in the post-prod-Mysticarea fauna. In the San Catalina Out town also Devonian-dure reaps with Oceroularia and Pachyphyllum, each in several varieties, & these Orgamms wants to see all sorts of strange things but to one he simply has a gradual range of specific forms of the four fauna mentioned. The Mississippian fauna of J.E. Origina Stig- cannar resembles as if Meramecian - say Okatse time. With the numerous Archimedes I wonder if it's or said maybe. It probably is not Morgan as I see through. Over the regularation Pennsylvanian comes the Indiana River fauna- that's older than Karibot

"at which is partly still Pennsylvania in times. Then comes the Kaibata fauna of the Grand Canyon and D.E. Arizona. Strjanne is now a full Professor. Last summer he worked in Mexico for two months for the Orbeitz Co and was paid $1000. The only interesting thing he told me that the Jurassic of the Las Delicias area began with a conglomerate that directly overlies the granite. Learned to think that the Orbeitz Co, were not anxious to learn much of the gelogy, but rather was mainly in display for his friend Cilles. Martin was also in the same area doing all this work from a hotel, reading his Alaskan Crustacean reports and trying to apply it to the Out. of Mexico. The Orbeitz Co are said to have had 20 cars in northern Mexico and as many geologists. Strj- anne thinks the whole northern area of Central Mexico has little chance for oil.

On wheeling my large suite case found a large corner completely torn away leaving off the entire left lining. Called the attention of the baggage master [illegible] and he gave me a slip to get back at the Tucson depot office. The latter made write on my address as follows: Professor Charles Churchet, Yale University New Haven, Conn. The case was in good order at Austin when wheeled it, accordingly it was done from Austin to San Antonio, or the transfer in San Antonio, or on the S.P.R.R. from San Antonio to Tucson. The ticket got hand in my complaint and said the railway would write me to my home address. He al- did when I buy a new case to take a receipt for it and to send it to the companies office. But ready to leave Tucson and at 7.45 (20 mins late) be back in [illegible] for San Diego and Los Angeles. Have a large sleeper, I go via Canto, Calexico, El Centro to San diego.

TUCSON, ARIZONA, SUND ANTI-EVOLUTION LAW SUSTAINED IN SCOPES CASE But Court Refuses to Confirm Conviction, Due to Ille- gal Sentence. CHARGES DISMISSED Judges Unanimously Advise Against Continued Prosecution. NASHVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 15 (By The Associated Press)—Tennessee’s supreme court today proclaimed the fundamental soundness of the state's famous law against teaching the theory of evolution in state- supported schools. At the same time it reversed the verdict of guilt against John T. Scopes, whose case was on appeal, and then barred recourse to the United States supreme court by recommending that the case be nolle prossed instead of re-tried. This was done late today and the case dismissed. Without a dissenting vote, court recommended to L. D. Smith, state attorney-general, that the “peace and dignity” of the state would best be served by a nolle prosse, thus ending what the court termed “this bizarre case,” once and for all. Mr. Smith announced he would follow the recommenda- tion and not seek a re-trial. Says Act Uncertain The opinion declaring the law constitutional was delivered by Chief Justice Green and concurred in by two other justices, but Jus- tice McKinney dissented on the ground that the act’s “uncertainty of meaning,” rendered it invalid. The conviction of Scopes, who was a science teacher in Dayton high school, was reversed because Judge John T. Raulston, presiding, fined him $100, when the jury failed to fix a fine. The high court held that only a jury may fix a fine of more than $50 under Tennessee law. While obviously disappointed over the action of the court, counsel for Scopes pointed to certain features as indicating a partial victory for the opponents of the law. Express- ings satisfaction with the dissenting opinion of Justice McKinney, they viewed as favorable also a part of Justice Chambliss’ opinion, which differed in one phase from the majority decision. Agrees Law Is Sound Justice Chambliss, while agree- ing with Chief Justice Green and Justice Cook, as to the organic soundness of the act, declared his belief that the act “only prohibits teaching of the materialistic theory of evolution, which denies the hand of God in the creation of man.” Commenting on this opinion, Henry E. Cotton, attorney for the Tennessee Academy of Science, and an associate in Scopes’ counsel, asserted that this view was not op- p

Cotton, attorney for the Tennessee Academy of Science, and an associate in Scopes' counsel, asserted that this view was not opposed to the known position of many recognized scientists everywhere. SCOPES EXPRESSES DISAPPOINTMENT CHICAGO, Jan. 15 (P)—Disappointment tempered with belief that the Tennessee supreme court's decision did not end the case was expressed by John Thomas Scopes, first violator of the Tennessee anti-evolution law which was upheld today as constitutional. Scopes studying at the University of Chicago under a 2-year scholarship given him by scientists who observed him at the Dayton trial, disappeared from the college campus shortly after he made his brief statement. DECISION A SUBTERFUGE MALONE DECLARES NEW YORK, Jan. 15 (P)—The decision of the Tennessee supreme court to reduce the fine of John T. Scopes to $50 and the recommendation that the case be nolle prossed rather than retried, seems to Dudley Field Malone, one of the defense counsel, a subterfuge typical of a "country court," he said today. "It rests with the Tennessee counsel in the case to decide on the significance of the recommendation that the case be nolle prossed," Mr. Malone said.

Wolvfile, the mythical cow camp made famous by Alfred Henry Lewis in his "Wolvfile Days," the right attraction during the rodeo last year, will again be a feature this year's cowboy festival. The union Central Trades council will have entire charge of the affair and has secured the services of George Pound, originator of last year's successful show, to direct and manage the affair. All of the features of last year's show will be retained, together with hundred and one new attractions and cowboy stunts that will fit in with a typical western cow camp. President Fred Steger of the trades council says that members of the council will operate the entire show and that there will be no "high-pressure" concession men and artists allowed on the grounds. "We are going to operate the show from an educational and amusement standpoint. The 1927 edition of 'Wolvfile' will be held from February 17 to the 22d, and will be better, bigger and grander "every way than last year's famous show," he said. The fourwing members of the trades council acting as an executive committee will have entire charge of the project: J. W. Hopkins, chairman; W. C. Milsap, Fred Steger, Harry DeFord, Tom Scott and L. E. Brewer.

Another movement was getting under way to ask the present legislature to repeal the famous statute. This coup of the defense, executed by agreement with L. D. Smith, state attorney general, was made possible because actual dismissal of the case, although requested by the attorney general and agreed to by the state supreme court, had not been placed formally on the minutes of the tribu- nal at Knoxville, from which grand division point the case was trans- ferred.

He gets the children about him and tells them ghost stories, blood curdling ghost stories. "And a long bony arm without body or even the shadow of body reached out of the darkness and clutched him. He couldn't push it off. His hand slipped right through it, yet it clutched with icy fingers on his throat. Slowly, slowly." "Bill," calls mother half laughing, half protesting, "Don't frighten those children with your awful stories. You know there's not a word of truth in them. They're awful." "He isn't scaring us, mom.

San Diego and Arizona Railway INFORMATION SHORTEST LINE---FASTEST TIME EAST 1. The San Diego and Arizona Railway, completed December 1, 1919, forms in connection with the Southern Pacific and its eastern connections, a new transcontinental route between San Diego and the East. Through Pullman cars are operated between San Diego and Chicago on Golden State Limited in connection with the Southern Pacific and Rock Island Lines, and between San Diego and New Orleans on Sunset Limited in connection with Southern Pacific. It is the terminal railroad of the shortest line between Kansas City and the Pacific Ocean and between New Orleans and the Pacific Ocean. 2. Distance between San Diego and El Centro, 148 miles; (Between San Diego and Yuma, 220 miles). 3. Elevation at Hipass, highest point on line, 3,660 feet; at El Centro, lowest point on line, 49 feet below sea level. 4. Grades: Maximum grade Westbound, 2.2%; Eastbound, 1.4%. 5. Cost of San Diego and Arizona Railway, $19,000,000, and is owned one-half by the J. D. and A. B. Spreckels Securities Company, and one-half by the Southern Pacific Company. 6. Railroad crosses United States-Mexico International Boundary Line at Tijuana and Lindero. Boundary at Lindero is crossed in Tunnel No. 4, 26 feet from the west end. Runs 44 miles through Mexico, known as Lower California. Ten miles is the greatest distance into Mexico from the International Boundary line. 7. There are 21 tunnels on the San Diego and Arizona Railway, one partly in Mexico and partly in the United States. Cost of tunnels, $1,760,200. The longest tunnel, No.14, is 2,597 feet, and the shortest tunnel, No. 1, is 187 feet. The total length of all tunnels is 2.98 miles. When passing through the tunnels, notice that you are not bothered with objectionable fumes and smoke from locomotives, as is usual when trains are operated through tunnels. This is due to the large bore of tunnels, exceptionally light atmosphere, and a slight draft continually passing through Carriso Gorge. 8. Distance through Carriso Gorge is 11 miles, and cost for construction, $3,939,000.00. Depth of Gorge from railroad, 900 feet. Carriso Gorge takes its name from the grass in its depths, which is used by Indians in basket work. Mountains are southerly extension of the Sierra Nevada Range. Notice the 22 fan leaf palms and spring at bottom of Gorge between Tunnels 20 and 21. 9. Campo Creek Viaduct, 77 miles from San Diego. Length, 600 feet. Height, 185 feet. Cost, $115,700.00. 10. The San Diego and Arizona Railway is the only railroad that received permission from the United States Government to continue construction during the entire period of the world war because of the importance of reaching the port of San Diego, where the United States Government maintains an extensive Naval Base. 11. One feature of importance, from the viewpoint of our Government, is that the completion of the San Diego and Arizona forms, in connection with the Southern Pacific, a railroad direct along the Mexican Boundary from the Pacific Coast to the Gulf of Mexico. 12. Tijuana is noted as a Mexican sight-seeing place for tourists. The Lower California Jockey Club holds a 100-day or longer racing meet at Tijuana once each year, which has a large attendance from all over the world. Opening date, Thanksgiving Day. 13. Notice when approaching Redondo westbound or leaving Redondo eastbound, the horseshoe curve where the track can be seen on the mountain side, three different locations at one time. 14. IMPERIAL VALLEY: A desert waste in 1900. Today is an agricultural empire of 531,674 acres under irrigation on the American side, with more than 200,000 acres on the Mexican side. Population, 50,000 in 1923. Shipped in 1923 about 50,000 carloads of products by freight of a value of nearly $50,000,000, including 14,000 carloads of canteloupes and melons, 8,000 carloads of lettuce and vegetables, 125,000 bales of cotton, and 7,000,000 pounds of dairy products. The valley is irrigated from Colorado River, and is perhaps the richest producing farm area in the world. 15. DESERT PLANT LIFE: After leaving Coyote Wells westbound, and continuing up through Carriso Gorge, the desert is covered with many species of desert plants, including many varieties of cacti. In the spring of the year many of these plants are in full bloom, which adds to their beauty. Pictures, together with the names of some of the principal plants, are shown on the reverse side of this sheet. 16. JACUMBA HOT SPRINGS: Summer and winter resort 92 miles from San Diego. Altitude, 2,835 feet; hot and cold artesian mineral water; large outdoor swimming pool; hotel, tent houses, cottages and auditorium. 17. On the "Golden State Route," between San Diego and Yuma, the Inter-California Railway, a part of the Southern Pacific System, is used between Mexicali and Algodones, operating a distance of 52 miles through Mexico. 18. YUMA, on Southern Pacific: Near Yuma is located the Laguna Dam for diverting water from the Colorado River for irrigating purposes. There are 50,000 acres in Arizona irrigated from the Laguna Diversion Dam at this time. Project under way to irrigate 6,400 additional acres of Mesa land within the next year, and eventually there will be 120,000 acres of land under irrigation in the vicinity of Yuma. Climatic conditions provide for the growing of some of the most delicious fruits that are grown anywhere in the world. 19. Ask the conductor, brakeman or observation porter for time that train crosses the International border and passes points of interest. Additional copies of this circular may be had upon application to porter.

San Diego, Cal. Jan. 17. Monday The train lost some time during the night and at day-break we are four hours late, leaving in the Imperial Valley to the east of Yuma. Some from 30,000 acres are under cultivation being irrigated by Colorado water. The land is a fine silt, below sea-level and as flat as a table. Of beauty there is none, neither the jagged ranges (tiny affairs) nor the thick trees of the city. Still truly the frontier in a state of settlement. As the train gets to about three miles of the cut the silt begins to have patches, and the land filled with many small mounds bearing cactus plants that blocks the wind from salt and sand. Near the cut all irrigation fails away, the lands is rife with vultures and dupl pullies and many scurves. Everywhere the tajadas hit into the cut and slope gra- dually into the Imperial Valley. Recently there have been heavy rains and the harvest rushed but in many places. At Christmas time there

saw no train for two days As are yet near the mts, does it like a fault escarp of volcanic rocks, then ochre and rapidly whitish granite. The latter con- tinues for great many miles -- to about the station Redondo. Rapidly the R.R. goes across the fault face and [illegible] several short tunnels and then a long one when we are in the Carrio Sarge [illegible] up ending the them climbs to the railway divide at Whi-forn at 3660 foot above the sea. All has long been granite and it goes W. to about Redondo. Here the granite has exceedingly many dark inclusions. Everywhere the granite crystallizes readily and the whole scenery is one of white boulders. The eastern aspect is rather quiet and the scree slopes are a long settle me, To the west of the high granite cuts one down mes of lava flows, and part-ally of much younger age. As we come out to the Pacific craft and

East of Tijuana the out crops show distinct sea cut cliffs, one level after another rising inland. The coastal shelf appealed to me my manner. From Tuma it is 220 miles to San Diego - across the Imperial Valley and the Mts - extensions of the Sierra Nevada. Put up at Hotel Maryland. Drove over to the California Building in Balboa Park to see the Ogden Library. The lady Librarian - a college graduate - showed me the three large shelves, and to choose I got to model. Just how complete the library is in regard to West Coast geology did not appear clear. The Librarian is Mrs Barlow. Lorling E. from Balboa Park we saw fan to the E. high Mt's fan far in the S. (Mexico) to fan in the N. The out crops formed on the San Diego-Canyon R.R. are the same Mts. All in M peaks, there is no flat dry-line.

San Diego, Tuesday Jan. 18. Worked all day in the Popes Library of the Natural History Museum. Looked through Cal. Reports but got little that was stirring now. Wednesday Jan 19 Continued the work of yesterday. Read many Fairbanks on Coast Ranges, and with the criticisms by Turner made some progress towards a better Paleography. At night fried up some of the crops. Thursday Jan. 20. Continued reading California geology. Cloudy and rainy in the N.W. to E. Friday, Jan 21. Once a little stiff with a cold contracted the first day in the Museum, beside a radia- tor and fat on a cement floor. Continued reading monstroses, but there was no spirit in it at all.

Saturday Jan 22. San Diego Read all day the various U.S.G.S. Folios of California. &t considerations obscured knowledge and especially about a land in Nevada during Paleogic time. Lindpen appears to have originated this idea and it is followed by Turner, Ransome and Keller. On looking the matter up in my maps found that I had most of it but not as it should be. In the present I am holding that the Base was Compley of the Coast Ranges is rather Pre- Paleogic than Paleogic. Even if Paleogic it will not cause much change in my maps. The amount of volcanics in the Paleogic formations of N. Cal. is extraordinary. What it all means. depending onogeny is not plain. But is also much of it in the Older-Mesozonic. Was glad to learn of a time of origeny at the line of te Paleogic or at least Sepul Upper Triassic time. The movement appears to have been in Cascadia, i.e.: N.-E. Cal. and Central Oregon and so on N.W.

Sunday Jan 23, San Dieg Was sick all day. At ten concluded trip to La Jolla. The bus talked about 40 minutes to traverse the 7 miles to the N.W. La Jolla is a beautiful sea-side r- sort. The day was bright and warm and I enjoyed the air, sea waves and the seashore. The Scripps Institute is about 3 miles to the N., but find it an get buses every hour from Dieg to the Institute. Rest for or-anther day. Monday Jan 24-1927 Reading all day California geology. Tuesday - Wed. - Thursday Jan 25-26-27 Finished reading most coast geology. Professor Fairchild was at the Museum on Tuesday and called to see me. He and his wife are wintering here.

San Diego, Jan 28 - Friday Took the nine A.M. bus for Los Angeles and got off at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography about two miles on west of La Jolla, or 16 miles north west of San Diego. Intended to see Payham but he had gone to Los Angeles. Looked a little over the Institute. There are two large building sheds and a rough besides about two dozen small houses used as residences. There is also a little aquarium, a museum and a good library. Lots of land around the place, believe 640 acres. Then called on Professor Cre who is ordinarily in arms down at the Institute, and other living in house 29. Later he took me to Coronado Point just off Pacific Beach to see the ?Pliocene Pleistocene shell bed that in places is full of sand dollars. Got a few loose ones and then Cre dug out from a large slab which he will send me to scale. In the afternoon he took me to the top of the gravel Mesa and to "Grand Canyon" hanging place about two New Paris Tonguaro sizes. This mesa is some

"miles wide, pretty 30 to 40 of this but is consider- ably dissected. Further inland is another mesa once remains of foothills and beyond begin the deep valleys. From Pacific coast it is 60 miles by air line to the edge of the Salton desert and 100 miles more to the sea or lake. All of the Eucalyptus trees about here are in- troduced from Australia where they are about 4 to 5 inches; here we had of about 100 kinds have been introduced. On the mesas one sees no trees, mostly Chaparral among which are dry bushes. The roots of some of these are dug up for fire wood. Andlee if there was a terrible storm here, but the usual they may carry very destructive. At those times the whole hill sides wash down when the roads become impassable. Everywhere trace evidence of wild cat real estate speculation. Great excitement is produced and many dry lots to hold for the future auction. It is a good same to watch those that believe Cal. is Paradise.

San Diego, Jan 29, Saturday. Spent the morning at Mission gardens on the top of the city area and the edge of Mission Canyon that heads into Mission Bay. There was a splendid view not only of the area but also of the Mt. The little dry river in the canyon could never have cut this mile wide valley. It must have come or other time once more water. It was the same view I had yesterday, only one spot and better. In the afternoon collected Pleistocene shells and sand dollars at Crown Point of Mission Bay. The variety is not at all large, and 90% of the fauna is made up of open [illegible] . All are washed together in the sand that has flowed from Mt. San, the rest are sand dollars, four three small gastropods, and species of two large ones. One small Dentalium, some sand filling of corals tubes, but not a sign of Byssus.

San Diego, Jan 30 Sunday Spent the greater part of the day on the beach at La Jolla, bathing in the sea and seeing the great waves breaking in the shore. La Jolla is a fine sea-side resort, but little bathing is done here except only by the very young. San Diego, Jan '31 Monday Spent the day at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography with Lincoln Paykan. First talked at her Boundlands of California Tropical Geogied. Devoted only the time to discussing the prospective lands in the Antillean region during the Paleozoic. See two large pages elsewhere. Informal me agreed my belief that he would write Florida to the Bahamas with a geographical line between them and the greater Antilles. Will now journey to go to Los Angeles tomorrow.

San Diego, Feb 1 - Tuesday Packed up and shipped a small box of films by Parcel Post. Then said good-bye to the people at the Museum Library. Left at 2 P.M. for Los Angeles. Got here at 6 P.M. Put up at Hotel Stovell. Los Angeles Feb 2 - Wednesday. At 9:15 took the electric cars for Pomona College at Claremont to see Dr. Alfred Donald Dorrford, a geologist. It is 33 miles to the east of Los Angeles. Found Dr. Dorrford in his Laboratory in the basement of the Chemical Bldg. Talked Botuland Geology and he gave me a copy of the paper treating of it. Had Lunch with him in the College Inn, and then talked over the maps. Returned at 3:48 and got to the hotel at 5:30 P.M. What I learned from Dorrford is stated elsewhere.

Los Angeles, Feb 3, Thursday Before 9 A.M. I was on my way by electric car to Pasadena to see Dr. Bernalda of the Cal. Inst. of Technology. At 12:10 Bernalda asked Prof. Millikan to lunch at the College commons and to take me to visit students. Then at 3:40 P.M. I spoke for 20 minutes to Bernalda as close on the object of my visit to California. All the morning Bernalda and I talked over the stratigraphy of a Bordenland of the Pacificshore and the age of the Basement Complex. On very little to known of these problems that are in uncertain and growing. In general Bernalda believes with J.B. Smith that the Basement Complex is of late Paleozoic age. What evidence there is favors this assumption. The Franciscan series appear to be a formal term embracing Jurassic strata and maybe also Triassic. The granites here appear to be of Jurassic and of late Paleozoic age. Bernalda took me to the Seismologic station of the Carnegie Inst. and Cal. Inst. of Technology. The machines are six in number all set in

granite mechanisms under ground during a uniform Temperature throughout the year. Three instruments re- cord minor and three major earthquakes, and each instrument registers any movement either vertically or laterally. The record is made by a beam of light falling on a self recording drum having a sensit- ized paper. It is within working order to be the largest seismological station in the world. Also visited the workshops and computing offices of the Promont Delorme Observatory. There 50 men are working making apparatus, and the astronomers stop during their office meal. All live in Pasadena. By auto they go up to the Observatory to make their observations. Learn our Observatory or well equipped as this one. Pasadena is an immense place of pretty homes of the wealthy of the U.S. who have made their piles and retired to this balmy climate. For the most, it is surrounded thereby the San Gabriel Mt and all in somewhat filled with homes, and down up the mt. aids.

Los Angeles, Feb 4th Friday It rained all the night and very hard all the morning. Remained in my room and worked on my telegraphic maps. In the afternoon hunted up the Denis of Cal, Southern Branch and landed pretty near the Denis of Southern Cal. Had to get back to the center of the city and then go out north to the Denis of Cal, Southern Branch. They are now between terms and the second one begins on next Monday. After a little while found the office of his best. deps, and first C.H. Crick- may, and then Dr. J. Miller. The latter told me what he is doing (see elsewhere for notes), and also Crickmay did so. Of the latter got or little that I asked him to dinner on Sunday at his hotel at 12:30 P.M. Spent the evening reading.

Los Angeles, Saturday, Feb 5 Spent most of the day with Bernalda showing him my Paleogeographic maps. After changes were made, but upon the whole he had little to object to or correct. Back of the Cetaceans, he had little at first hand. Had lunch at his home, and then drove around Pasadena. Los Angeles, Sunday, Feb 6. A splendid day. Went out in the morning to Exhibition ground and walked around the Museum. Had C. H. Giffney to dinner at the Stowell Hotel and then we talked Paleogeo- graphy until 5:30 P.M. He made changes in my maps of Jurassic and Cretaceous Time. Also gave me the faunal zones based mainly on mammals, Taymia and Aucella. He has two or three papers of the Lower Crust which he had. I urged him to get at a preliminary statement for publication, and to send it to me in April. Corrected my maps as far as I could for.

At 6.27 P.M. while I was sitting studying my maps, I heard a rumble and then a sharp short knock followed by a slighter one that one couldn't hear as my bureau flew across the room from N. and S. Getting near to it, but just once decided it was an earthquake shock. The next day the papers said nothing about it once, but the elevator man asked me if I felt it, and when I asked him how often they occur he said one in about say two weeks. This shows plain that Coastal California is in constant motion. Burwolda told me last week that recently the Chairman of the Board of Commerce of Pasadena called on Amelia Orilliana and granted all funds for earthquakes to the physicists of the University of California, and Stroll now called and the three then gave the Chairman a stiff talk and said it was their duty to keep on talking so that the proper precaution can be taken in building the houses in the proper manner.

Los Angeles, Monday Feb 7. Walked around the city, and then visited the very large City Library just finished. Curious archi- tecture, all in concrete, broad spaces more for show than for books. Was not impressed at all with the value of the Library. It takes up an entire square and is set terrace like atop a hill surrounded by a very large gardens. If they have a book stack I did not see it. The idea appears to be to put every single library together on the shelves and pick out what impresses you. All the books I saw are arranged flat against the walls. No aisles anywhere. The budgeted skeleton may have held 100,000 books, but there some main Economic Zoology and Petrology. Then visited the Los Angeles Art and Nat. Hist. Museum in the old Exposition grounds. Their Ranch La Brea collection of course wonderful. Also the Grammes (king) of Africa and North America. Decoy arts elsewhere.

In the afternoon took electric car to Santa Anica, Oceanside, and Sanier. Saw little of interest, and no one talking. My fear in the beach. On the pier fishing is the most popular past time. R.T. Hill called to see me but I avoided him. Los Angeles, Tuesday Feb 8. Hill telephoned me before breakfast and about six he called and we talked old times for a half hour. Then went out to Pasadena to get my mail. The book contracts had arrived, and in the afternoon returned them to Le Mene with my comments. Some parts I did not like, and one clause I rejected, namely that I would not write a similar book. The other clauses I left to Le Mene to accept or reject since they could tell write the royalties.

Had dinner with Hill at the University Club, a rather small club. Hill told me of his gologic work he is doing in California, and some of his archeologic studies. Thinks not that the Maya civilization came to America from India, probably by way of the Pacific. Thinks America was found probably three times before Columbus. Once by the Pacific, then Letteris - Alvarado, Paul P. Goudkoff, Ph. D., who has specialized in foraminifera work, after three years with the Hammond interests in California, has opened consulting of- offices at 635 Petroleum Securities Bldg., Los Angeles, for mining and oil exam- inations and the microscopic correlation of oil formations. Nearly all of the large oil companies have been carrying on extensive experi- ments of microscopic correlation of oil formations, and many special departments for this work have been established through which remarkable results have been attained. Mr. Koupkoff was professor of Eco- nomic Geology since 1907 at Tomsk In- stitute of Technology, Siberia, and was also director of the Siberian Geology Committee, which corresponds to the' U. S. G. S.

Los Angeles, Wednesday Feb 9 Felt tired all the morning. Read a while at the City Library, sat in the park, and then read in my room. In the afternoon called to see Mr. J. E. Eaton, 628 Petroleum Building, and talked Pliocene and Pleistocene local geology. Then called on Dr. E. F. Davis, chief party of the Hell Cr. of Cal., Higgins Building, on Second and Main St. See notes elsewhere. In the evening called on R.T. Hill, and showed him my paleographic maps. What I learned from Eaton and Davis is recorded in separate sheets.

Los Angeles, Thursday Feb 10 Took the 9 A.M. electric car to go to the Mount Lowe Tram. The cars go throp Pasa- dera, and Altaadena and stop at Rubio Canyon where the altitude is about 14465 feet. Then up an inclined plane 123 ft higher when one takes another electric car that winds and winds around the mountain side up to the Mt Lowe Tramsn that stands at 4420 feet. It took about 2 1/2 hours to get here. Then walked N.E. 1/2 mile to Inspiration Point and back to the hotel when had lunch. Then tried to ascend by walking to the top of Mt Lowe along a bridle path. I took 1 1/2 hours to climb up to 5650; but the general view was not good in account of the haze and clouds. Could hardly see Pasa- dera other 10 miles south. Still the trip was worth while. All of the rocks are a white diorite very light that in places almost seems a pink granite. Has many schist including and then great bedded masses of schist throught worked in the diorite. Our plan is the building of the Observatory

on Mt Wilson that is six miles by path to the N.E., but as the crow flies is not more than two miles. Mount Lowe is one of the peaks of the San Gabriel Range, and it rises sharply out of the valley onto Caltadena near the fault trace. To the S.W. are the Santa Monica granitic outcrops and between lies the dilly plain made up of Pliocene-Pleistocene strata. To the east of the Santa Monica Mts lies the Los Angeles Plain of the same strata but of another seaway. These E-W Mts are all fault blocks that arose (later?) in the Oligocene and made the two sea ways mentioned. Most of the elevation appears to have taken place during the Pleistocene but may have begun during the Pliocene. Some of the peaks in the San Bernardino Mts must be more than 9000 feet high. While on the top of Mount Lowe it cleared a little. Quickly the crowd changed for the east, and the skies began to cloud up once and once.

Los Angeles, Friday Feb 11- It rained a little during the night. Racked up preparatory to leaving for Santa Barbara. Then spent two hours at the Library reading Johnstone on Oceans. Both of his books are quite interesting reading. This "The Study of the Oceans" I must buy from library loan though there is much of a palaeo-graphic nature that I object to. Left on the Southern Pacific at 3.15 P. M. for Santa Barbara, left here at 6.30 P.M. Los Angeles in the business part of the city is almost as crowded as in New York City. Hotels and Restaurants galore. The buildings have a sky- line and more are allowed beyond 13 to 14 stories. The most conspicuous feature of L.A. is adven-tisement and unlimited (on the surface) faith in temselves. Best in hotels for great numbers of old people, chiefly men. It is the climate that draws and if certain cave had (Colorado River) L.A.

out become a second New York City. Fruit and petroleum are its chief natural resources. Put up at the Carrillo Hotel. Santa Barbara, Saturday Feb 12. This town of 37,000 people is 3/5 in Spanish Mission style of architecture. One and two story houses predominate and all in light bright colors — white, yellow and orange in lighter tints. With the intro- duced plants of palms, palmettos, canes, we get the impression of foreign land—oil Mexico to cause all is once left, but I suppose rather the better parts of Spain. However all is rather appear- ance done in concrete and cement and there's any of it in substantial stone. There is to be had downtown hard Mission sometime of a light yellow brick color. One sees almost no effect of the last earthquake. Here and there one sees cracks along the sides of the arcades that maybe of the earthquake or settling. The hotel from what suffered very little from it.

at one store lift. walked down to the ocean front and just at the corner of the Bath House (Cig?) there are off Colemen (?) [illegible] sandstone reflects with trypora and tiny orthoceras. I felt a small lift. Hidden up are sandstones with zones, if well rounded boulders up to 2 feet across; occasi- onally has a outcropped me. The sand is dry. fine. At the corner of the beach [a little headland] there's a curious sandstone with layers as if flowed not horizontally. I can interpret this way as a small delta, and on either side of it is sandstone over the day, grows. The shore must have been close by. All the mount anywhere about are folded rock, and all appear to be folded. There's also some faulting but does align the shore nor evidence of faults. Then took the street cars out to the local Chat Hill. Queen and Bury Junction. It's a small affair in Romanist style, one stop ride.

many kind and small museum, beautiful arrangements and great mounted. This all done by Mr. Stuart, a self made Museum Curator former architect. His whole life is devoted to the museum mounting. Santa Barbara, Sunday Feb 13 Set out to the Clements home at 10.30 A.M. and was there until 9 P.M. Talked all day about small biologic problems. Clements is an inde- pendent thinker and holds that a positive answer cannot be given until experimented with. Has a mine of information, but because of his classical knowledge has a decided tendency to draw ones own conclusions from conclusions. Is therefore exceedingly difficult to follow. Talked to him about my difficulties and urged he getting out a Popular Account / of his results and conclusions. He could do it in three months, and said he would consider

the suggestion. I'm glad it all be once because he should become a teacher of teachers - a much older audience than Eerlygists in whom he is writing. He dislikes being on our job because he has so many experiences gone in many places that he hardly has the time to talk on such a book. The attaches I'm glad his doing this work since it's better way he could do to make his work count more. Read all day and night. In the evening he gave me a dinner and invited in a retired surgeon having a draft from and his wife, and architect Mr. [illegible] and his wife. The latter have a son at Jale who graduates this year. She ought to be at Commencement. The Clermont's expect to visit Jale via train auto next autumn, when I must look after them.

Santa Barbara, Monday Feb 14 Raining hard this morning and all the steam mudde in flord. We leare at 11.30 A.M. to go to Palo Alto or Stanford University. Got to Ramona Hotel at 10.15 P.M. At San Luis Obispo the railway climbs from about sea-level to over 1000 feet, and soon one begins to see highly metamorphic rocks -- layers of serpentine and volcanic ones -- and they continue for a long distance to the north. Evi- dently these are the San Franciscan series of Jurassic times. The hills are not high here, not- ally less than 2000 feet. South of Obispo the railway goes along the sea-shore, but northwards one goes inland and follows for a long time a river that flows into Monterey Bay, or this valley to the south of San Miguel one sees fine alluvial terraces.

Palo Alto, Tuesday Feb. 15 About 9.45 called on Professor James P. Smith Adams waiting for me. Iron began to talk Paleography and later in this discussion we were joined by Prof. Tillman and Herbert Johansen. Lots of great detail, some yardstick's cited climatic and other facts marked directly on map. Tillman knew the Coast Ranges Far and Baja California, Johansen northern California and southern Oregon, while Smith had the paleontology all the formations well in hand - has a big memory. Smith was joined at noon by the Swl. Faculty and together we had lunch at the Student Union, a rather large and good lousy place. Then talked Paleography until 3.30 P.M., when one finished. Got back to the hotel at 4.15 P.M. Jan to lecture tomorrow at 2 P.M. on the Degree Theory of Continental Displacement. Adjusted any maps and maps at the hotel.

Pal Alto, Wednesday, Feb 16. Studied all morning my notes for the lecture at 2 P.M. Then went home and on Jefferson way. It seemed to take very well. Then visited Prof. Blackwells office and he showed me some fine samples. I saw boren sand and flustiny granite rocks, green on which the garnet where left or pebble, another sample had the harder we standy out. He showed me a picture of granite faulted over pleiocne strata and are planed across to a general level. So pathory data done far back the present topography can be traced. It for some first back of the Andirece. Had dinner at Prof. Smith's home and met his wife and two sons. His daughter is in Europe. Then attended a lecture on the Milliken rays by the physicist Professor Brown.

Palo Alto, Thursday Feb 17. Visited the Leland Stanford Junior Museum. A little of everything and as much of anything other than things immortalizing the Stanfords. The best are the paintings, several my large ones of costume American mountain landscapes - Yosemite, Kern River and Shasta. These are wonderful pieces of realistic art. Also looked on the Arnold Collection of Cenotic mollusks of California. Often join collection and not at all what one could have been gotten by a land collector. Spent the afternoon with Prof. Smith. Had dinner in the evening at Mr. Robert Anderson's house. He used to work in Brazil with Arnold. Has traveled all over the world from Mt. Co. Is now doing private research work at the University. His father was Professor of English at Leland Stanford University, but is now retired. Rained mostly during day and nights.

San Francisco, Friday Feb 18. A bright cool morning and at 9.05 AM, I am off for San Francisco. Arrived at 10.15 and transferred to the Ferry Building where I checked my bagage so that I could see the city before going on Tuesday to Berkely. In the Ferry Building is an immense relief model [correctly like 600 ft long] of California. I walked my foot for the Coast Ranges. Tried to get a picture of it but more to be had. Then looked things the State Mining Bureau devoted to mineral and economic giology but not geology and not at all to paleon- tology. Then called at Magnard Shipley's office of the Arborist League of America but he is there only on three afternoons. Did not see him. I then visited the Post Museum, the Aquarium, and the California Academy down for 16th & Sute Park. With the latter is the Steinhart Aquarium. The collections are very fine in geology (Mammalalia and Birds). Otherwise try almost little. One long man we have in Ethnology.

San Francisco, Friday Feb 18. The Steinhart Aquarium is a building specially built for the purpose and is the second quarter one in America. Have a great array of fresh water and marine fish, but nothing of marine invertebrates. Modern speciality of little aquariums -- "tablet aquariums" -- for home use and show about all the kinds of small fish that can live in those confined quarters. All have lots of plants but just enough to supply the oxygen needed by the fishes. The Zoological (Mammals and Birds) collection of the Cal. Acad. of Sci. is very fine and is modern taxidermy at it's best. The accessories and painted back grounds are as fine as any in this work. These are all in darts alcoves around to walls and lifted artifices. The case exhibits on top floor are a little of everything and nothing in special. Rather to please than to instruct. S.A. to Berkeley at 5 P.M. Put up at the Carlton Hotel, a charming house.

Berkeley, Saturday Feb 29. Spent the great part of the day with Prof. Bruce Clark trying to talk Paleography, but he insisted to tell me if what he is doing in structural geology and tectonics. All which is detailed Hercul Mountains structure that of a specialist can understand. Dayfall I got tired out on lithology, checked her at there by fossils. It all relates to the Cretaceous and Cenozoic times. Finally I got tired out and retired to the hotel, he only seeing a single one of my maps. Said I could do this at some other day. Then he gave me arms describing mineral terms the tectonics, and in reading this I got to understand better what he tried to tell me. Had lunch with Clark at the Faculty Club and had one Lanson and Bread. Late in the afternoon send the many letters received here at Bruce Clark and answered 8 of them before retiring. Rainy as day.

Berkeley Sunday Feb 20 Dark and raining. After breakfast write a long letter to Mrs Levere, and then unpacked all my luggage. Had dinner at Bruce Clark's home. Wrote letters to Emma, Mrs Thomas, Clement Burrallu and J P Smith, in the evening. No rain in afternoon but this evening it is at it again. Berkeley Monday Feb 21. Prepared for and at 10 A.M. gave a lecture to Prof Lawson class (about 35 men, 1 girl) on Haeckel Shales and viviparization. Then prepared and 4 P.M. gave a lec- ture to Prof Bruce Clark's class of about 15 men and 1 girl in the Orionian. In the evening heard a rather saw-movie on Chawson's Trip to Antartice. He spoke 2 hours and 40 minutes. Pictures good. Choris penguins especially interesting.

Berkeley, Tuesday, Feb 22 George Washington's first day, and a bright day it is, that some mist is in the air coming in from the Pacific. Worked all day with Clark on my paleo- geographic maps. They are tallying on a changed loot and especially in the vanishing of the Bride land. Will finish tomorrow. See notes elsewhere. At 3.30 Clark took me on his Ford over the Berkeley Hills to see two of the fault valleys and several of the faults' throats. All of the shores are much folded and often crumpled in play due to movement near the fault zone. San Franciscan, Cretaceous and much of Cenozoic. The top side down of the hills is two large fault scarps. These hills are filled with dunes and many flood stream beds. Some is paying attention to the nature of the ground and many dunes are built on a fault zone that may form aggravated 17 feet. The most fascinating.

Litchi is built on my near this fault Grove. Some day there is going to be a fearful devastation here of earthquake, fire and death. It is a crime that the City Engineers do not examine the buildings who try to talk out building permits as to where the fault lies are. Then if the buildings go ahead it is their fault. Hillis and Lord are predicting a de- cided earthquake for the Los Angeles area within the next few years. Lawson says Hillis is pessimistic, and further that he can not present data predict when the major movement will take place. They come too irregularly. But Lawson is gathering the data and plotting it to see what the nature of the periodicity is. Maybe then Insurance Companies can then do business or a far more secure business.

Berkeley, Wednesday Feb 23. Worked most of the day with B. Clark on my paleographic maps. His corrections relate many to Cal. from Cretaceous time to the close of the Cenozoic. My Pliocene map must be changed to three maps of this time to bring out the changes. Better have him send me three maps of California alone, that I will publish in my book. Best Crust geology probably can enter the Pal., and certainly since the Jurassic must be interpreted in the light of Block fault structures, and what all in the light of Fold nts like the Appalachians. Probably that type of Fnts only serve to be the one for the Pacific coast of N. and S. America, and layed on the entire Pacific ocean. It will be many years get before the Cal. structures are fully understood and can be described in simple language. Bruce Clark is hardly the man to ever describe them in simple and good English, but he may be the man that will do most of the field work to elucidate them.

Mr. F.M. Anderson called on Clark and was introduced to him. He's a gentle man, about 65 years old, wealthy and only about 20 years in San Craft Mission area. His collections and most all goes into the Cal. Acad. of Sciences in Golden Gate Park. Raining again in the afternoon. Spent the evening reading Springers Crin- od text in the library rooms. Berkely, Thursday Feb 24. Spent the great part of morning with Prof. Clark. Talked on his proposed publi- cation on the Tectonics and History of the Coast Ranges. Started in on a few small matters as the case of positive and negative Hecks (=rather rising and sinking Hecks) and the use of Revolution. Then urged him not carrying these structure back to the Aradan Orogeny. He is inclined to carry them back to the

Palegrie. Finally he called me if he had made matters clear, and I practically told him that his style and enthusiasm did all present matters in the best form. He took all in good spirit, though he naturally wants objections and makes his impetuous make up drew me out all the more to talk one into his views. At noon Clark got 12 of the Geological Department together for lunch at the Faculty Club. Lawson and I were the old men, Head of middle age, and two rest young men only instructors. Lindelbach and Cecels were also present. Then went to the top of the Caponville in front of the bed. Hall (= Baem Hall). Descended down to see the Invertebrate and Vertebrate Fossil Collections. They have in the various places very large collections and especially of the Cenogric formations. Called on President Camphire the afternoon

Berkeley, Friday Feb 25. Prepared most of the day to give a lecture this afternoon on San Paloguo Graphic Maps are Made. The day is dark but without rain, At 4 P. M. gave the lecture to about 40 men (2 ladies). Went to the Morris after supper. Berkeley, Saturday Feb 26. A cold clear sunny morning. The first fine day in two weeks. And not! To my railway ticket and then out of the Campasillo to see me once more to environs of San Francisco - Oakland- Berkeley. A vast field of houses around a very shallow bay - a drained lagoon. car thump to a number of large and active factory goes. The people are offi- or my automatic cial of their day, but one that comes but once or twice in a lifetime.

At 3.30 attended the meeting of the Lo Conte Geological Club of Berkeley and Stanford Univ. Rogers spoke on the Canyon Chatter near Circula trench and concluded its origin as primarily due to a plumed in of a great meteorite. Then Chavez spoke of the climatic change during the Pleis- tocene of the West Coast. Back at the Pliocene time was a wide spread Redwood flora that was then restricted to a narrow strip of about 60 miles only the Pacific slope. It forms wider distri- bution (about 200 miles wide) primarily took place in Pleiocene time for drier climate flora of landwoods and willows that grew along stream courses. Cause the rise of the Cascade Mts. This history is unlike that of the Gulf of Mexico and the Great Plains. Then Monson spoke on his peculiar ring of paleoclimates. It was a poor presentation, and his ideas were guided by by C.A. Bowie of the Geothin Bureau (D.T.). He is a brother of Bowie of forestry fame. At 6.30 P.M. we all sat down to a

dinner at the Faculty Club. Then as word Janes called me to speak, I spoke for two minutes on the Paleographic world and drag along the West Coast. Then a brief presentation of the Dinosaur Theory and why falem trigins object decided to it. The meeting adjourned at 8:30 P.M. Wade called me at the hotel at about 9 and stayed on home, talked Phili- gins etc.

Berkeley, Sunday Feb. 27. At 9 A.M. Oretu Castle called at the hotel with he and Mr. Fry, and we are off to see the structure between here and Mt. Diablo. He has been working about this region for 15 years and has it fairly in hand. The faults mapped by Lawson through his students is in parts quite wrong. There is a major thrust of the Mt. Diablo over Franciscan rocks with outlying parts of Chier and Cengric, from the N.E. to the N.W. It has an intricate or simple structure and is in part still in motion. The movement started later the Pleiocene. It includes "closed rally structures", i.e. as strain attempt on and areas thinned and broadend, the whole rally was closed the eastern masses close up to the western end at the same swinging around to the north. That the fold is still folding is seen in that the alluvium onto the under- lying strata are thrown into slight and decided folds. All around the whole area to the N.E.

Berkely is a most difficult area to unravel. Difficult not because of the faultly and thrusty ad folding, but all the more so because the moments have continued all things Pleisto. Cere time of to now. During this time erasin has cut out much and waste means closed tydller tge thr. Dava basal Pasting layer of congl. repite with broken shells of Ostrea titana. The pottles, ranged up to a fair miles acrom, all well arm ded, ma comm of coarse sand. This layer was harder for fur therst, and the oysters did not oc- cur higher. Among how much try are restricted to the shallower water of the shore. This layer lays disconformably on the Olijrene. Out side of the Pasting shells and of the shores are dark fine to pulvory muddy coarse sandstones repite with mica. Conglomerate layers are common. All is dry shallow water de- position. Set back & hotel at 5 P.M.

Berkeley, Feb 28 - Monday At 9 A.M. started out to see once more the great city of San Francisco. Crossed on the Southern Pacific Ferry and then on by trolley to Cliff House on southern side of the Golden Gate, demanded an entrance to San Francisco Lagoon. Had some sand clubs at the Cliff House. Have a great deal of the San Fran- ciscan series in the seen. It is a highly folded and crumpled series, much jointed marbles and some less metamorphosed. Its not altered enough to be Portuguese marble, but parts of it may well be Paleozoic marble. However for present needs it will be best to regard it as Jurassic and Triassic. The Luther Museum near Cliff House is an antiquated museum and if no price. Is connected with Luther Baths. Then walked through part of Chinatown and bought two driles for 3 1/2 cents. Rode back to Berkeley and the Carlton Hotel at 4 P.M. Packed up and then read until lawn time. Left at 8,19 P.M. for Oregon,

Eugene, Oregon Tuesday March 1 Left Berkeley, Cal., last night at 8:19 on the Southern Pacific for Eugene, Oregon. Got up at 7:15 A.M. and am still in California, near Lagelle in the Klamtha Valley at an elevation of about 2700 feet. All of the Emu types are white under a new snow. A little further north it comes down to 3000' above the sea. All is now snow covered and we are in fine conifer forests. At 10 A.M. we are at the summit of Dial, Oregon, at 4100'. The strata are hardly metamorphosed mostly dark blue shales with grey (?) thin bedded sandstones. They lie at low angles, and appear to be Paleogene. Lagelle is I believe Heilum's type locality for Eocenean. There is very much igneous material. The rocks go up maybe to 6000' Then we go down the outcrops to Oakland at 1872 feet. There is no rain here, but up in the rocks there was a light rain and perhaps some snow. But it is raining at Medford further north. Here we are in a wide valley at 1400' above sea. South of Glen Dale we are again climbing the

mrs and the nros look like francsican, sweet sepertive names in crumpled shoes. A light pain all the way, Dr to Eugene, Oregan about me home late at 7.30 P.M. Put up at he new hotel Eugene, Eugene is a town of 18,000 and the ships dark windows dream in the most progressive style. That it is a university town is noticeable in the number of young people about the theaters and ice-cream parlors. The latter are elaborate affairs here. Eugene, Oregan Wednesday March 2, Papus say that Oregan has had mae-rain by far than is usual. Hot again cloud today. Talked teleography most of the day with Professors Packard and Dodge. Had lunch with them and Prof. Smith. Spent the evening at dinner at Packards home with Mr and Mrs Smith and Dodge. Retired at 10 P.M.

Eugene, Oregon March 3, Thursday First part of the morning correcting my pholo- graphic maps. Cashed my check for $270. Spend a fair part of the afternoon with Pachel and Dodge talking over Julorography. Phil Smith gave me a lot of pamphlets mostly on Physiography and Geography of Oregon and those I looked through during the evening. Eugene Oregon March 4, Friday. The geology of Oregon is still very little known, but what is known shows that its structure so far as Hood faultty is con- cerned is not at all like California. All earthquakes in Oregon are of a minor order showing that the vibrations come from else- where. Made some changes on my maps and at 11:10 A.M. started on the D.P.R.R. for Portland.

The day is bright and I had a good sunny trip north through the Willamette valley to Portland. Arrived out of Eugene and about half way north the rainy in middle and pleasant till. To the east are the Crater butts and to the west the Cascades with their coming volcanoes. May have seen the Three Sisters early Eugene, but soon one fears to see them away off. To the west of me out had a snow tops. The flatness of the Willamette and the hutting horizontally against the soft hills shows that a lake a better a sea may once in this valley as held by Cordm. If so it would be formed by the shells in the deposits above the extremely tilted older Cenozoic deposits. Put up at the Multnomah Hotel, a very large hotel but evidently one built some years ago.

Portland, Oreg., March 5, Saturday. Intended to take Rutherford can to see the mouth of the Columbia River, but it began to rain before he can started. Then walked to City Library and read a little in Cordons "Fort Island". Packed up at noon, and was transferred to the depot and I P.M. am off for Seattle. Portland is not beside the great Columbia River, but the Willamette River. It is about ten miles out to latter to the Columbia river. We first go down the Willamette about 20 miles and then through a big tunnel over low lands and then across the mighty Columbia, a river as large as the Ohio when in flood. Just now it is about as clear as the Ohio a Min. rivers. We then go north along the east side of the Columbia River and finally leave it, going through four trestles. Finally we are on Puyallup Sound and at near 6 P.M. get to Tacoma. Then am in the drawl to Seattle. Staying at the Grand Hotel.

Seattle, Washington, Sunday March 6 Dark morning but by noon the sun shone. Took a short morning walk and then read until noon. After lunch took a car to Vol- utier Park to get a broad view of the environs. Seattle is built on several hills all separated by marine crests ways. The Capitol is on one of the highest, and the State University is se- veral miles to the north of the center of Seattle. The town architecture is pleasing of peculiar high colors and considerable streets. Spent the evening at the City Library, the day spent me on the whole West Coast by far. Los Angeles has a larger building but has not the books and magazines of this library of Seattle.

Seattle, Monday March 7 It rained all day. At 9.30 A.M. called on Prof. Dean and found him with gray hair. Said it came on with his South American travels having contracted dysentery and malaria. Ever now his death is not far. He talked paleontology all day but so far I have not been able to make use of the N.W.-S.E. strata of anything. Washing ton, Dean thinks those strata are very old - maybe even Pre-Paleozoic and certainly not younger than Post Jurassic. Met his former students Mr. [illegible] and Mr. Ethington. Had lunch at the Faculty Club on the Univ. Campus.

Seattle, Tuesday March 8 Fairly bright day. Saw a little of the Olympic and some of the Cascade MS. Was with Professor Orcutt the greater part of day. Finished the paleography with him. Told me he has planned to put his collections to sale in case he leaves the Univ. of Washington which appears probable. This would mean a place to work up his collections and as his private income is about $2000 per year, he would have to have an honorarium. Despite of $1000 to 1500 like Huntington with the title of Research Associate and the rank of Professor. In this case he could also offer a course in Geologic and Cenozoic Stratigraphy. Orcutt is now 67 years old and even if I say only 3/4 serviceable for 2 years more. In the evening read Washington geology but got little of direct paleographic value.

Seattle, March 9, Wednesday For awhile in the morning read Wash. reports and then made some adjustments on my paleographic maps. Walked down town and enquired about railway return fare to New Haven. Then prepared for a lecture on the Dreyfus Trial. This I gave to about 50 men and women at 4 P.M. Spoke one hour and a half. Also prepared for a talk to some of the Faculty interested in Research. This I will give tomorrow. Had dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Bearn and talked South America and finally Yale. Bt back to the hotel at 11 P.M. Sun shine most of the day, but rained again at night.

Seattle, March 10 -- Thursday Prepared for my talk at 11 A.M. on Universites and Research. It was at the Fa- culty Club of Washington University and I finished at noon. Present about 20 Instructors only Professors and all doing research work. Then had lunch with about left of them. After lunch had Professorn Deurn tell me more of his South American work. His collections have trials with the Jurassic and Cretaceous and Upper Cretaceous. East of the Andes, except in Chile, Ur- gayini south for Honduras. All is done in de- tail and all is recorded into the actual conditions of the field that no pencil and note can match. He was seven years in doing the work, and most of the time had four field assistants all college graduates. All was paid for by the Standard Oil Co., and a detailed stratigraphic re- port is in their hands. The paleontology and its re- action on the stratigraphy is still to be done, and it may take him once than five years to do. Then he has a Cretaceous collection made.

in Honduras. These collections are in 225 standard drawers. In addition, Dearn has 170 drawers of Georgie and Georgie prints made while he was working for the State Library. This collection has about 100 type specimens. He wants to present all of this material to Peabody Museum in consideration of an adequate place to work and to use the university facilities. Of course some official title should be given him as for instance Research Associate. He has an income of $2500 a year but this is pretty not enough for him and his wife to live on. He wants me to find out what he can live on at New Haven, not in the Country or an acre or two of land. Both the Dearn's don't care for society, she will do all their domework and they want to live modestly. Apparently he does not care to teach but is willing to do a limited amount of typing, Georgie and Georgie lines. Leave him--

orarium should be paid him, and at least enough to make it possible for him to live modestly comfortably at New Haven. I wrote by hand to try him on to New Haven and have him attend in the Pea- body Museum. As both the doctors are orders I believe it will be easy possible to live with them. She seems a doctor ear but he does not like to come in and will leave it to her. His capital is what he saved out of his D.A. work. His salary was around $12,000 per year and he must have invested by his hand for him something like $50,000. But my ticket from Seattle to New Haven on C.P.R.R. It reads from Cam- brown to Montreal - Springfield to New Haven.

Friday Vancouver, British Columbia, March 11 Left Seattle on the C.P.R.R. steamer Princess Victoria at 9 A.M. for Vancouver British Columbia. It is a fine medium sized steamer used for winter travel. During the summer the travel is 10-10 times greater and then try put on a much larger steam. Arrived on time at 7.15 P.M. Had a miserable experience with the Custom Officers about my bundle of maps. They tried could not understand suspecting my architecting plans which are ductile. The Chief Officer cheered me down and said if I wanted to make a great deal of trouble for myself that he would turn me over to the inspectors. Such are the damnable laws among quitting nations. The trouble of errors was all due that I spoke angrily to the minor officer, and he looked good under he is a memo-shall. Had a splendid view of the Olympics in the clouds and all deeply snow covered. They towered up high and the view over best from the straits of Juan de Fuca.

The steamer stopped at the capital City, British Columbia at 1.15 and we had a chance to ashore for an hour. This is Victoria and here I visited the Parliament Building, another pleasing grey stone large structure standing back on a park facing the sea wards. Nearby in the C.P.R.R. laye Victoria Hotel. We walked along one of the main streets to see the stores. There are very much like our own. The Olympics an all of metamorphic rocks, and to the north of them are the upturned Cenozoic formations in fault relations to the east. To the north of these are low hills, mainly a table land of elevated horizontal sands. The redding in places is so distinct from these Pleistocene deltas must be of marine origin. Those lower hills go up 200 feet or more.

Panorama Island appears like all or many of metamorphic formations. Around Victoria the land is not rugged, but as we steamed north along its eastern side we sees quite forcibly proof for life. The near ones are gone. Had a far dard view of the high mountains of the Cascades. Too far away and too dark to make anything out of them. These cruises of Puget Sound during the delightful months of summer must be a joy to be ever remembered. Birds are plentiful and the water is clear of a dark place under the grey clouds of today. Part of the passengers trooped like Cana- dians, a plain unassuming crowd. The men are friendly canoes and gondolas. Put up at the Browne Hotel at the recommendation of Williams.

Vancouver March 12--Saturday At 9 A.M. started out for the Univ. of British Columbia and found it nearly eight miles out from the center of the city. First shut car to city limits and then bus to the University. After goin into three buildings found Prof[essor] William. Later Drcta Darfield came in and then I must call on President Klinck, for remmrs from German a Dutch Stroll. He is a bird girl interested in Agriculture. Then to the county club for lunch and finally a long drive to the east and the mainland to see the Crust Range and the high elevation Juranic batholith granodiorite. The drive was into the Capilano canyon and gorge. Upon the granodiorite rests the first water Eocene deposits with small gravel beds-- these may have an undulating dip towards Puget Sound of about 20 degrees. Informally noting these are the Pleistocene deposits now elevated about 650 feet above sea-level. Had dinner with the Williams family

Later on Dr. C. Andrews called and we Talked until eleven P. M. about the Lilliman Lecture Course. He is doing all he can and will during his travels away no time at home to prepare a page for the book or lectures. As he attended the Pan-Pacific Congress in Japan de has constantly those lectures in mind and gathering structural relationships in Japan, Philippines and the East Indies chiefly Dematra. I am somewhat fearful that his conclusions are too easily attained but upon the whole de will not be any different from the advanced knowledge of the structure of the Pacific from to the followers of Edward Sues. My work of 1906 and my Presidential Address is in a large measure his starting point as Hamel signallings around the Canal in Thailand he finds the same sort of things in the facts of the world, and clearly in India. Learned nothing directly today about Paleogeography.

Vancouver March 13 - Sunday At 10 A.M. Drtn Andrews called and then we walked nearly five miles through the Stanley Park and its principal forest of giant trees, Douglas Firs, White Cedars, some of which were about (85 feet at base) 6 far as to base and turned 200 far high. He then asked me to lunch at the C.P.R.R. hotel - Van- couver - We started at 2 P.M. At 4 P.M. Drtn Jaffield called with his car and wife and with Andrews we went to Drtn Williams' home to a reception in my honor. The President of the Univ- Clinic was there with his wife and about a dozen couples more all of the University. The reception came to an end at 6 P.M. Andrews and I remained and at 9 P.M. we had a light dinner. By this time I was so tired out and bored by the incessant talk - even if interesting - that I had to finally admit that I was tired out and wanted to retire. Started to Innisfree Hotel at 11 P.M.

Vancouver March 14 - Monday Williams called for me at 9.20 A.M. and went off to the University. He has a bad throat and finds it painful to speak. Dr D volunteered to take his class in Hist. Bot, and the subject in course was the Crustaceans. Spoke 45 min. Then Williams, Ashfield and I took up the paleographic maps. Ashfield is especially much preoccupied with the geology of British Columbia. He wanted to extend the Cordilleran physiognomic line to proceed more its western trend line to the north and then to Vancouver Island and the Queen Charlotte's. Finally showed him that there was another and independent physiognomic line to the coast, and he finally agreed to this. He holds there was all through the Pal. Mesogric and up to the Alencian a Brideland and from which the sediment of the western physiognomic line gets its clay and sediments. This is another bridleland he holds must have existed outside (South) of the Aleutian Islands and Alaska on a physiognomic inside of it. Later in the afternoon prepared to fire a

Long lecture in the evening to be given Mr. Dawson. In Geological Club. The meeting was held at Mr Kidd's home and later tea and lunch was served. Present about 20 young men and one girl, are undergraduates interested in geology. So failed to be able at 11 P.M. The first sunny day in a long time. The day is cool and during the early morning it sleeted. The Coast Range stood out majestically, all shining with fresh snow. So tried to see the highest one - Crown Butt to the south of Capilano Canyon, but the top was usually covered in clouds. The Fraser River and estuary separates the various parts of Vancouver, and on both banks there are once preserved terraces, one continuing in- craved planes that to the east rise to over 600 feet. The environment of Vancouver on sunny days is fascinating with its scenery. Had my R.R. ticket extended one day, day adjacent Also saw the towering peaks facing North Vancouver crowned by dipping the Guarding Lions of Vancouver.

Pine own March 15 - Tuesday Worked most of the morning adjusting my paleographic maps. Then walked 1 1/2 miles in Stanley Park, around about 5 miles. Spend the afternoon at the University and Dr. Annie Williams and his wife [illegible] took me to the University Club. Late on packed up so that I can make an early start in the morning. Cool but a sunny day. At 9 P.M. it's raining again.

Vancouver, March 16, Wednesday The day starts in dark and raining. I leave on the Brossena Hotel bus and the C.P. R.R. train starts promptly at 8:30 A.M. We go fourteen miles up to Burnard Inlet which is situated the city of Vancouver, and 12 miles more on the delta of the Fraser. Burnard River we come upon the river itself. This delta hereabouts is usually not higher than 50 feet and con-siderable if it is settled and farmed. All this mountain 42 feet. The Coast Range foothills and plateau is much dislocated and I must refer to early Cenozoic time. The small craters on all sides are U shaped due known, to the Pleistocene glaciation. In the first 80 miles are rise of 100 feet. Down comes down to about 1000 feet above sea. The little town of Gyassy in the Coast Ranges is on the flatly Fraser River and has a romantic surrounding of sharply ascending out, Paleozoic formations near by. At High at mid is go miles E of Vancouver we are off the delta and in marshes of the Fraser River. We are about 210 feet above the sea. The valley soon dawns.

in into a V shaped one and then takes on a gorge character betw cen vertical walls up to about 200 feet. This continues to about China Bar = 120 miles E. of Vancouver. In these canons the granite is again and vertically jointed in places and all shattering with dills. By the time one gets to North Bend, the valley of the Fraser again widens out, suggesting that here has her stream capture here. The cuts also appear to be considerably lower, but later down they turn back up again. There is no rain in the heart of the Coast Range but the days are dark and it may be snowing at higher levels. At Keelys there is a great development of coal veins, The C.P.R. is on the northern side of the river while the Great Northern R. is on the south bank and we pass a big series of the sedimentary formations. If there are any faults in these rocks, here is your chance to reveal them historical geology. The Fraser Valley opens ever more all the way to Lytton and here the C.P.R. leaves it and presses up to Thompson River. Many river terraces are

now in view, out a huddled employment of sand. The front on the east and in the river valley is formidable, and the same slim through that are approaching the semi-desert of the desert plateaus. The country the Thompson is an emerald green, and the river is duff winding in a canyon. The Fraser continues N. and the C.P.R. goes E up the Thompson. All the cuts E of Lytton are crumbling down at expected rate, and a well flows in common. These rocks are all greens of Tertiary time. The Thompson river goes through a wide valley made up of alluvium into which the river has cut itself some hundreds of feet and often crossing the Cache Creek and Cutacian rocks. The Cret. has some black argillite in flats, well seen in Black Canyon. Ashcroft is one of the largest villages of our run. Trees are few, and the ground is covered with sage bushes. We are in the desert plain, At 8.30 P.M., we have come 291 miles = 24 miles per hour.

"En Route Home, Thursday March 17\n\nWas up at day break and had breakfast before setting to Field at 8.15. The day is clear and the outs are clearing brilliantly in the snow covered dress. To the north of Field is Rynjers and St. [illegible] hour brilliant it is in the morning sun. All the out are of stratified rocks and of Cambrian and Ordovician age into the Silurian also.\n\nMt Stephen\n\nFarther east and down to the south stands grand, and the strata are lifted in an anticline or in fault relation. To the south are Mt Ogden and Cathedral Mountain, and in front the R.R. turns and rounds. (up to 8.30 A.M.)\n\nDuring the last 12 hours we have come 214 miles and have risen from 1288' to 4075' or a rise of 2787 feet. This is why we are making only about 18 miles per hour. We keep on rising to the station Panora [illegible] Stephen Kicking Horse at 3:33. Here is the continental divide and the boundary between British Columbia and Alberta. The waters for the Pacific and Hudson Bay.\n\nLake Louise station is at 5050 but the hotel further along beside the lake is at 5670'. All is in deep snow and the steam snow plows have been along clearing the track.\n\nThe scenery is very grand.

I am sitting in the Observation Car all the way (The last station on the Rockies) from Field to Radnor a distance of 114 miles and I see the Rocky Mts one after another span into the distance on my east. What a grand sight it all is to traverse these out of stratified rocks without any green masses, and away from the basal Cambrian into the Cutaceous. In places the strata are almost horizontal and elsewhere in grand arches and dolours and again almost vertical (New Face). In all my life I have never seen folded out structures so clearly revealed. It is the other extreme of the grand Canyon of the Colorado. And today the grandeur is greater because of the sunny day with all the mt coral mist snow cut off by bare my shaded spaces and the dark green of the Amifla forest. I sat for four hours enthralled, hardly able to read the gelriged guide of the Canadian Rail Express a the railway guide. The girl got other to map these out must be an alpine climber, and my Jale cannot get is to do it. But what a repetition a song - child make her in working out in detail to stratigraphic succession.

As I look back from the plain near Radnor there are an oil pipe, buried in the atmosphere con- densing against the mist. On the mist, themselves there was condensation in placeless mists above the high parts, lending charm and mystery to the high peaks. They melted away into the glory of the heavens and God, but that sky came there was revealed here as the tiny yellow spots in the rolling and slowly rising mists. And now I can seeing the arid, sun-baked plains, the evidence of aridity and poor looting lands. Along the small stream courses are some small crops! Truly here at no one would dream of the majesty immediately to the west, hidden in the distant mist. Adieu. East of Calgary the country is as level as a stone. Table. Light snow everywhere. The glare is hard to Calgary is of about 42 years old, and now a town of 75,000 people. The greatest building in the Pal- liser Hotel of the C.P.R. -- the upriser face this country. All the afternoon we see only the flat plains and the grain fields with here and there bunches of

dorsos, Or trees like seen anywhere, but there also my sage brush. Towns are few and far apart and clean very small. Farmers houses are also few Barns are a rarity at least large ones, and usually of the smallest kind. No wonder no one cares to talk to farming here, because better plugs can be had elsewhere. However it is very comfortable on board to train, the table is excellent and the white waiters are very kind. At 7 P.M. a very light snow is falling. At 8:15 P.M. one are at Medicine Hat, a town of some size and importance. Probably also a shift of train crews since one stop here 20 minutes. I retire shortly after works. All afternoon I read Daly's Report in Guide Book of the Canadian Geological Survey, 1913. There is much of great importance in it, and I must study my paleogeographic maps in the light of this report of the entire Cordillera by Daly, Allen and Crysdale.

En Route Home, Friday March 18 A bright sunny morning, but cold. My world is a plain all covered duff and snow of last week's storm, bear on in Saskatchewan and at morning in Manitoba where there is no snow. Manitoba is Canada's great wheat field. The Country is full of

(35 What's Behind Winnipeg ? 1. Manitoba stands out pre-eminently among the Provinces of Canada as a field for exploitation. Rich in undeveloped fisheries, in mineral areas, especially in agricultural wealth, it extends, not only to the aspiring and intelligent settler the means of useful independence, but to the capital- ist unlimited opportunity for economic gain. 2. Manitoba's area is 251,832 square miles. This is more than double the area of the British Isles and is greater than the area of Germany, of Spain or of France. It exceeds the combined areas of the states of North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota. The water area of the province covers 15,500 square miles and includes one of the largest inland fisheries in the world. 3. Although Manitoba is world-famed as a prairie agricultural Province, over 75% of its area is wooded. There are over 137,000 square miles of forest land in the Province. There is estimated to be 8,400,000,000 cubic feet of pulp and fuel wood in these areas, including over 28,000,- 000 cords of poplar, 20,000,000 cords of jackpine and 18,000,000 of spruce. 4. Manitoba is fast assuming the role of a min- ing Province. Her resources include antimony, cobalt, copper, gold, iron, lead, molybdenum, nickel, platinum and palladian, silver, tin, tungsten, zinc.

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Saturday March 19 The day starts in night and not very cold. After breakfast I walked around the town for about three-quarters of an hour. It is a fine impressive city and just now it is very dirty, the snow is all black. There are many large buildings but all in all the city of 200,000 is not more impressive than the average of American cities. I start at 10 A.M. for Montreal. From me cross the Assiniboine a rather large and muddy stream. Its flow is very slow, and lies received in the Lake Agony plain about 15 feet. The Lake Agony flats are said to continue to the east side of Rainy Lake, thirty-five miles E of Winnipeg the forest begins and much of it is a small mixed forest -- a few parts of birches and pines. Less than 2 hours east of Winnipeg we are in granite, a red granite in low hills, altitude about 1000 feet. Up to Kenoatim all is red, joint and fog granite, in low hills studded by innumerable small lakes. The glacial drift is very thin, barely noticeable but in places the granite boulders are common. As we get towards Kenoatim the rocks are

dwell to Hoad and heall in Hock's, Evidently these are the keveratin laros. I travel this material, Keeveratin is at 1080 eleration, Therein also schist there. beaver was at the north end of the Lake of the Woods. Then one appear to get out of the granites for I see not often cuts along the R.R. Drift is far more common, but the endless succession of lakes continues. It is fine in the Observation car to see how ore snake through two county and the front rushes off into the background. Houses are few and far between and farms there are almost none. When the train stops the town is a small one or a railroad junction. This land of the Shield is for geologists and miners and loggers to investigate, but the average man finds it hard to make a living out of it. Even the O.P.R. does not advertise it as it does all the western County. There in come over this afternoon than any other for a trip and it is near noon -- of last week. I retire at 9 P.M.

En Route Home Sunday March 20 Despite of all the crowing Hope some last night. The sun was out at day break and the sky is without clouds. In all day. The land and scenery is as of yesterday, a thin clad forested hill country (more 200 ft high) abounding in lakes, with a grand absence of farms. As we leave the north shore of Lake Lupine (altitude 682') are again nine trunks (Roman River). I am very tired of the trip. The scenery still pleasing remains the same all the way from Brinnify. All the rocks are ancient and many granites. Terrible surroundings for a galleryologist and a paleogeographer. I retire before 9 P.M.

Montreal, Quebec Monday, March 21 I get up at 7 A.M. and find the day dark and fine snow falling, which I judge to be a typical winter day in Eastern Canada. It should have all day. Had a good breakfast on the cars, and I must say that the dinners on the C.P.R. are all they are advertised to be. The train is on time and we arrive at Montreal at 8.55 A.M. I have now come 2885 miles on the C.P.R. The mileage of my entire trip is something like this: New Haven to Cincinnati, Ohio 720 cincinnati to madison, Wisconsin 310 Madison to Little Rock, Arkansas 675 Little Rock to Houston, Texas 170 Houston to Austin 250 Austin to Tucson, Arizona 920 Tucson to San Diego, California 600 San Diego to Vancouver, B.C. 1815 Vancouver to Montreal, Quebec 2895 Montreal to New Haven, Conn. 200 Total mileage 8650

Called on Mr. Norton and Mrs., 225-227 Peel St. and purchased 12 photos of the Rocky Mts. on the C.P.R.R. They are to be silver prints and will be mailed to me. I have a list of these and of others that I did not purchase. Then wrote postals to Emma, Le Vene, Phil, Albert and Wenton. At the Grand Hotel Mount Royal. Still snowing hard at Ciron. Spent the late afternoon at the Canadian Nat. R.R. station and had supper here with red wine at $1.60. The wine was poor, and the soup not much better. As usual the Canadian French are poor cooks. Oh what a come down this is from the handiwork of the Canadian Pacific. A Domini came in for supper, crossed himself before and after, and the waiters spoke to him by name and gestures in full sympathy. How nice when genuine is the system and knows no better. Montreal was different from the western Provinces as can be, and if I could give four cent

"In Quebec as a people to respect by their if the I would give 50 cents for the people of the west tying with Toronto. This is Canada, but Quebec is not - it is a dynastic France. Again I have to be same conclusion from former trips, I go aboard my train at 7:55 P.M. and at 8:15 I am off for the United States, Connecticut, Yale and home. It continues to snow up to bottom of my leaving. After my trip to Europe in 1903 this has been the next most satisfactory trip. With the various electric car trips I have traveled in the last two months at 9:00 miles. The American Revenue Inspectors inspect ed my baggage on the train. Saw nothing to disturb anyone

Home, March 22 - Tuesday Arrived on time at 6.35 A.M.
