JACKSON MERICAN outdoor women, who are always looking for new worlds of sport to con- quer, have been afforded a new and thrilling form of en- tertainment in Glacier National park, which Uncle Sam has thrown open for the benefit of those who like to climb | glaciers. This glacial wonderland, which was only created by act of congress in 1910, has been practically unknown. Americans have spent many thousands of dollars visiting Switzerland and the Canadian rockies, in the belief that America had no glaciers worth the atternpt to conquer. Yet in Glacler National park there are more than 6U glaclers within an area of five square miles, not to mention snow-capped peaks without number, rising to an ai- titude of from 7,000 to 10,000 feet above sea level. The principal gla- ciers in the new park are Blackfoot, Harrison, Pumpelly, Red Eagle, Sper- ry and Chaney. In these great ice flelds there are many wide and deep crevasses. Ice avalanches come thun. dering down the slopes in warm weath- er, iid ander the chill coverings trick- le chill waters, which form hundreds of beautitul cataracts at the head- waters of rollicking mountain streams where trout are to be found in abund ance. Adventurous Trips. The summer of 1911 was the first “geason” of Glacier National park, but the fame of the land of glaciers had spread, and hundreds of pleasure- geekers turned to the new national playground which Uncle Sam will keep unspoiled through the years to ccme. Many women visited the park, and most of them refused to be left behind when parties were organized to scale the nearest glaciers. It is strenuous work climbing even the most accessible of the glaciers, and some of the women were compelled to give up before the ice slopes were reached, but most of them gained the ice in safety and .returned so enthu- slastic over the new sport that more adventurous trips to the outlying gla- clers were planned. “I have climbed glaciers in Swit- gerland and the Canadian Rockies,” said one tired but enthusiastic wom- an who had spent most of the season in Glacier park, “but nowhere is there finer sport than right here. There is such a variety of glaciers, and the sur- roundings are so beautiful that any active woman will find a whole sum- mer of inspiration right here in Gla- cler park—and in addition she will Denefit her health past all computa- tion, for there is nothing else quite 80 beneficial as mountain climbing, in particular.” The woman who resolves to explore this land of glaciers should be pre- pared to “rough it.” There are good hotel and cottage accommodations at Lake McDonald, a few miles from Bel- ton, the entrance to the park, but when one strikes toward the moun- tains she is plunging into a wilder- ness, with few trails and entirely in- rocent of wagon roads. It is thi- pri- meval aspect of the new park that proves one of the greatest charms. Generally partles of climbers are formed and horses and guides are en- gaged, the individual expense thus be- ing reduced to a minimum. The trip to €perry glacier, nearest the hotel, can be made comfortably in two days. Camp is made at the foot of the gla- cier the first night. Here the saddle horses are abandened, and the climb to the glacier is made on foot. All supplies for the 1r'» have to be pack- ed on the backs of It requires about 20 hor.c: 1 average party and the = led.

Sometimes the trail | leads around crevasses half a mile: long and hundreds of feet deep, or skirts huge holes in the ice, down which one can look and observe the water from nature's huge ice-storage plant starting on its long journey to | the sea. Several days could be spent with profit exploring the slopes of Sperry glacier, and when one considers that, | within an area of five square miles there are 60 more glacicrs, great and small, to be explored, it is realized that the glacier climber cannot ex- haust the resources of this American | Switzerland in many seasons. In addition to the pleasure of gla- cier climbing for its own sake, there ! 8 the satisfaction of knowing that one is, in a sense, a pioneer Gla cler National paik has been little ex- plored. It is a primeval wilderness today, almost as it was when the In- | dians roamed across it. Many of the glaciers have nvever been thoroughly explored. There are new trails to be made everywhere, and countless places where the climber will have the satisfaction of knowing that he or she fs first to cross an alluring ice fleld. or first to catch an inspiring view { from some high point. The park is from 50 to G0 miles in length and con- tains 915,000 acres. { Besides its glaciers and peaks, this | wonderland that has been epened by | Uncle Sam contains countlcss water- falls. In Avalanche busin, a remark ! able U-shaped valley about 12 miles north of Lake McDonald, are dozens ot cascades and cataracts, which dash from a great height into Avalanche | lake. From almost any spot in the park, innumerable waterfalls are seen like silver threads against the dark background of pine. Wandered Thirty Hours in Mine. Wandering for 30 hours in a col | lery near Cardiff, Wales, an elderly miner named William Davies was found the other day by a rescue party safe but greatly exhausted, in a part of the disused workings two miles | away from the spot where he had | been last seen by his son. Davies told an interesting story of how he missed his way and got into a dis- used working place. “My light went out,” he said, “and I was left in dark- ness and in ignorance of my where abouts. Most of the time I Ilay | stretched out on the ground listening | for any sound of my comrades coming | to look for me. I was hungry and | thirsty. As the hours passed the hun- ger seemed to grow less, but the | Jraving for something to drink was ! terrible. 1 had no food of any kingd | with me, and no tea or water, but ' {In my tea-can I had some molst tea | { leaves, and from these 1 sucked the mofsture and kept on chewing the leaves. I had my watch with me, and by opening the glass case and feeling the hands I could pretty well guess | how the time was going, but uuror-‘ | tunately I accidentally broke the | hands when feeling them, and the watch became useless. Several times | T knocked on the sides of the pit, but | could get no answer. I did not shout .until T saw the light carried by the men who brought me out.” Well Countered. | Andre de Fouquieres, the cotill leader of Paris, is, like most co:m?»l!:l | leaders, very gentle and mild of man. , ner. | | During M. de Fouquieres’ vigit (03 n, after | r fifteen er well- | i New York a well-known matro talking to him for some teq o ; minutes at a dance, said in h | known way: { “Now trot g | You're altos he yo swered: “I'm sorry I can't you, mad: / VT Bt - “Security Abstract & Title G FHMEEEOLT I ETSUO NS CIOIDSS SISO i PURE ICE F0 {L.
