H, NEWLAND ADDRESSES BOY SCOUTS Troop 6 Hears Interesting Talk on Yellowstone Park. Troop 6 of the Boy Scouts enjoyed an interesting lecture Friday evening on the Yellowstone National Park given by Rev. J. H. Newland. The talk was illustrated with stereopticon views of the park. The views were exceptionally clear and brought out the grandeur of the scenes in almost realistic ilkeness. The stereopticon machine was In charge of Scouts Ives and Walden. Rev. Mr. Newland sald in_part: The Yellowstone Park les in the northwestern part of Wyoming over- lapping slightly into both Idaho and Montana. It does not look very large on the map but it is in fact larger than all the other national parks rol- ed into one. Tt Is 54 ~iles across from east 10 west and 62 miles from north 10 south. The park and the adjacer game and_forest reserve has an area of over 17,000 square mil Thi more than the combined arca of Con necticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Delaware. We can lock at but 2 few of the great number of interesting points, but we shall see why it is famed the world around and t!sited by travelers from every land. It was an old time Scout by the name of Jim Bridzer whose picturc we have here, who probably discovered this region. He was for 40 years a scout_traversinz thé land from Ka sas City to the Pacific and f Canadian line to Chih Merico. He saw the Grea: as early as 1524 and it is found this country as early Later when he was an old man government paid him $10 a dav :> 2.+ as chief scout in the Indfan campaisn later hc was a chief scout under Ge eral Dodge at the time of the con struction of the Union Pacific railroac He was a great story teller and h stories still form a part of the lore o that land though he is gone from the | trail of the scout for ever The man to whom the world is most indebted for its first knowledge of the park is Nathaniel P, Lancford. He was the guiding spirit of an expeditior Through the park in 1870, and late at his own expense he went to the na- tion’s capitol and led in efforts to the enactment of a law setting the whoie region aside as a national park. TIn 1872 President Grant signed the bil but Langford was the father of the movement. e was then appointed superintendent of the pary, and for five years he tofled without a cent's salary or pay, not even receiving his expenses, protecting the people’s new- Iv acquired and valuable treasura from the Jocal vandals and from the zreat ompanics that were organized to ox- ploit its valiable features Langford is the father of the national park. An especial feature of the pictures shown to the boys was the coloring which reproduced the wonderful tints of the original. Mr. Newland said In the section of the park called Hot Springs there are fifty hot springs in 170 acres. There is a travertine accumulation of a thousand feet displayed in »eautiful tinted terraces of incrustation. oSme the springs deposit lime, some silica and some sulphur and some all of the ingredients. Through unnum- bered vears this depcsit has beer building up the terraces, over the 200 acres where it ocet There once was a like formation in the North land of New Zealand and it was the wonder of the world. Iroude. the his- torian, describes its pink and white terraces way that mizht easily be applied to the Yellowstone terraces ome years ago the terraces of New Zealand were destroyed by an earth- quake, leaving the American terraces without a counterpart in the world The: beauty of this unique formation is very wonderful. The hot water which "vou see in the overhanaing bowls, rising to ite very lip, has come up throuzh a stratum of 2,000 feet ) lime rock, It is an interesting, fact to note t each of these terrdces accomplishes its own destruction after awhile, com- mits suicide as it were. As they build igher and higher there comes when the top of the terrace is to a point above the source of the wa ter supply or is raised so high that the subterraneous pressure cannot Iift the water. As a result the water for sakes the spring and seeks a new su face outlet, there to commence anew the construction of another terrace Take for an example Juniper Terrace. dered by many to be the most beautiful single piece of nature-craft in the park. It towers eighty feet above the roadway, and on fop has two hot springs of ‘indescribable bluc which has only been matched by th color of burning sulphur. In the park are two herds of Buf falo, one that is enclosed in a place set apart for them. The pictures here are of these. The other herd is stil wild, having never been in restraint The wild herd had 25 or 30 in num- bers while the herd that ls in restraint had 147 animals in 1911. That vear nine calves were born. This shows you how carefully the government keeps track of these animals that are in_danger of becoming extinct. The Upper Geyser Basin is the ver: heart of this wonderland. It is about four square miles in area and i< fair studded with geyser craters, hot poois, steam venN, rumaroles so that which ever way you look vou see clouds of steam silhouetted against the sombre backsround of the fore: d slopes of the mountains. Only in Iceland and New Zealand are there to be found such scenes and there the gevsers are much smaller, less numerous and less sting. foliowed pictures of the Morn- orv pool.

Long ago it was so broken off as to look like the stump of a broken Svcamore tree. It sometimes spouts to an elevation of 250 feet. The crater of Oid Faithful was shown in this picture. It is estimated that 5,000 vears have been consumed in building this crater. Once in 42| minutes the waters leap from the lips | of this crater in a great boiling jet to the heighth of 150 feet to fall back in a blistering shower. Each eruption it sends up 1,509,000 gallons of water or 31,000,000 og %oiling water a day A diagram showing the way these geysers were formed under the earth was an interesting part of the lecturs The lecturer then turned to the can vons of the Yellowstone river and to others of the marvalous formations of the place, showinz some of the wild | animals in their habitat. ending the lecture with views of the falls and other views along the Canvon trail FIFTH CO.
