AERIAL SURVEY TO OPEN VIRGIN LAND Much Expected of Air-Map ping of Alaska, Ketchikan, Alaska.— Flying two miles high to map 40,000 square miles of Alaskan territory, much of which seldom before has been seen by man, ii a task that furnishes plenty of thrills, according to Lieut. Ben H. Wyatt, officer in charge of the navy air-mapping expedition which started operations out of Ketchikan. It is by far the largest survey in square miles attempted by the air service of any nation and from the standpoint of the ruggedness of the terrain surveyed it haa no equal, the lieutenant said. Writing In the Chronicle, Lieuten ant Wyatt declared that "the rapidity with which an aerial survey can be Why Atlanta Has 2,000,000 Square Yards o 0 Concrete Streets Atlanta, Georgia, laid its first concrete street pavement in 1915* I It now has 2,ooo,ooosquare yardfc Four-fifths of this total was bulk because property owners askea for concrete. And they asked for it becausQ they had learned that concrete pavement requires little maixp tenance. People in Atlanta like concrete pavement also because its pleas* ing, light gray color dresses up any street. They know, too, that this rigid, unyielding pavement always remains true and even and it*B safe to drive on, rain or shine. No wonder more than 1,000 cities and towns laid concrete streets in 1925.

In making the survey a camera Is mounted In the bottom of the plane and pictures are taken at periodic In tervals. The developed photographs are matched into a complete "mosaic picture, which shows the entire terri tory under survey. It is possible to scale this picture as accurately as any chart or blue print. In this map all details, such as trails, trees, streams, mountains, cultivated and uncultivated land clearly are seen.” The mapping of Alaska offers many difficulties that seem almost insur mountable. Lieutenant Wyatt declared that the task “Is and will be a severe test on the servicabllity of aircraft, its ability to operate for long periods Concrete pavement gives greater value per doUatt than any other type THE TRUE CITIZEN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1926 of time away from the home 1 e in the face of many and 'severe dh.icul ties.

We are told that the brown bear of Alaska Is particularly ferocious. This would be a consoling thought to the pilot and photographer, as they were plodding their way homeward after having landed on one of the snow-capped peaks a hundred or so miles away from their base.” 'Natives Praise Work. Alaskans generally are enthusiastic In their praise of the good which is being done by the air-mappers. Much territory heretofore barely known has been discovered to contain im* mense possibilities for future Indus* tiy. Telling of this phase of the work, Lieutenant Wyatt said: "We have dis covered lakej? on the Island of Ite villaigedo (on which Ketchikan is sit uated) that eventually will produce tremendous, power to turn the wheels of Industry.

St. Swilhin’s Day. July 15 Is St. Swithin’s day. Ac cording -to an old superstition, if It rains on St. Swi t hin's nay it will rain on the forty succeeding days. The legend says JJiat St. Swithin. bishop of Y\ inchester, who died in 802, de sired to bo buried in the churchyard in order that “the sweet rain of heaven might fall upon his grave.” When he was canonized the monks thought they would honor St. Swithin by removing Ids body into the‘choir, and they set July 15 us (lie day for the ceremony. But it rained on that day and continued to rain every succeed ing day for forty days, which die monks interpreted as disapproved 0 I their project by the saint ', and accord ingly abandoned it. The story is mythical, at least in part,- for St Swithin was never actually canonized by the church. TERRIBLE PAIN Mrs. Cox Quite Well Now And Pleased With Cardui. Mrs.. W. L.

I was so pleased with the way I improved that I kept on taking it until I felt quite well.
