PAGE TWO ’ : *“Perry Claims It Is Rich in := Minerals, Gold, Silver z and Copper ==" Moose and Deer “Square With Fat” =F pdmonton, Alta., July 22—Out of “the great mysterious and unmapped: :@anadian northwest comes a tale of zn almost tropical valley in the sub- retie region where boiling springs your from the ground and abnormal egetation, attracting thousands cof me animals, make a veritable hun- ’s Paradise. dacs he story of this paradoxical val- fey, which rivals the creation of the -fietion writer, was brought here by =:Rrank Perry, a mining enginecr of “Vancouver, B. C., who recent; “gurned from a 17-year prospecting ip into the (mmense unknown ter~ S:xitory in far nothern British Col- “mbia, near the Yukon boundary. ct location of his wonder valley, "but said that it is somewhere near the Yukon border. He said the place “Was rich in minerals, gold, silver antl copper being found close togeth- “er, with great outcroppings of coal and iron ore. -~One- coal seam, tic prospector “said, was 800 feet across the strike while an iron ore seam ran about 200 feet thick as far as he could = judge by a cursory examination. ‘2 Perry is now on his way back te the country where the valley is lo- cated, und, before his departure said, he expected to rettrn in about a year with news that would aston- ish the continent. The valley, Perry said, was about 200- miles long and about 40 miles wide, and through it ran wide rivers :. of hot water fed by hundreds of ““folting springs. The vicinity, dank with vegetation of abnormal growth; abounds with animal life, he said, and many of the moose, deer and fur bearing animals were so tame that he was able to walk among them as they fe Due to the exceptiontly good grazing, Perry said, the moose and deet looked like old Norman pictures of horses—almost square with fat. The valley is never visited by In- diatis, ke said, their superstitious nature keeping them away because they believe huge prehistoric mon- sters. whose three-toed imprints are found in the standstone and shale, still roam that. country. Describing the remarkable growth of. vegetable life in the valley, Per- ry said ordinary wild rose bushes were like trees with stems-as thick as a man’s forearm and so dense that it was impossible to force a way “through them, while marsh willows . grow.to tree size, with some of the > --trufks a foot and a half in diam- eter. 3 ‘Birch trees, the engineer said, grew to a height of 700 feet, and for somie unexplained reason bent over and almost touched thd ground, while the grasses and shrubs com- mon to the north country were of unusual size. There is no frost in the valley during the severe northern winters, the engineer said, because of the boiling springs. Remarkable aside from the natural wonders reported . by Perry is the story of his 17 years of wandering in the fastness of the barren. north witH only two-sled dogs°as companions.

A double driveway would make the crossing }muchymore safe since the roads lead- ‘ing to the viaduct are curved and do not allow a driver to see another “car approaching.
