The Seaforth News, 1923-04-26, Page 3TilE IESTERN.PLA:, GROUNDS OF CANADA WOODED SANCTUARIES RETAIN PRIMEVAL CHARM. The Banff-Winoderinere Motor Road to be Opened in June Forriias Part of 6,000 -Mile Tour. Each year evidences .a greater^ape preciation of the Canadian National: Parks both an the part of the Cana- dian people and visitors from other lands, and each passing season fur- ther extols' this foresight of the' men who have retained for all time these enchanting fastnesses of nature to be the playgrounds of a continent for all time. Though the final figures• are not available for the past year and the an- nual report uncompleted, it is anther!- ' tatively s'ta'ted that the parks in the 1922 season welcomed as great a vol- ume of visitoroe as they had BTU known ,at least equalling the traffic of the year 1916, which had hitbierto .stood a record. In that year a total of 166,000 holidayers, of whom 75,000 were Canadians, visited the National' Parks to revel in their wild beauties. In the year 1921 it is estimated that foreign visitors to the parks -left the 501.11 et nearly 520,000,000 in the court - 'try, or almost $2.26 per capita of Cana- da's population, and this amount must have been substantially augmented last year. It is confidently anticipated that this season the traffic to the National Parks, especially those which Ice in the ,Western and mountain regions, will be invaded by •a yet greater army of tourists. Every year the desire to spend freer, more uneonventiona1 holt days, the most striking antithesis, of the ordinary day's routine, becomes more pronounced and greater crowds seek to give expression to this urge. It is coming to be more and more ap- preaiated', too, that no area se satisfied this craving, nowhere is the realm of nature sa inviolate, as the Canadian National Parke, where the most rigor- ous precautions are taken that the beauties' of nature shall be preserved unsullied, the trammels of nature be banished as far as possible and these wooded saactuarlee. retain their im- maculate. charm. Rocky Mountains Park. The -Rocky Mountains Park has for years been the Mecca of the conti- nent's: holiday-makers bent on such a vacation, and it easily leads' all other resorts as a prune favorite for ills - porting in nature's haunts where civili- zation is lest not too far behind. In more than one vote taken among tour- ist. parties• who had hi addition tra-. veiled tlitongh many or all' of the United states' National Parks, it was elected as the moat attractive and en- tertaining. In 1915, 'of the 106;000 tourists •nt the various Canadian parka, 71,000 were visitors at Banff, the gate- way to.thls unrivalled playground. For the motor traveller who,, holiday bent, seeks to penetrate the heart of nature and has learnt to love the rug- ged, untarnished beauty of the Cana- dian Rockies, 1923 is, in one respect, a aigna1 year. The last day of June will See the official opening of the Banif- Windermere road, the last completed •sectionof the. Canadian soctor of the Grand Circle Tour which stretches up into Alberta for 6,000 miles from Cali- tornia and takes in ten National Parks. For years work has progressed stren- uously upon it, .tearing through pine forests and blasting through, mountain strongholds, until now the way lies open to what le undoubtedly the most picturesque motor trip on the cane- -neut. An Altitude of 6,000 Feet, Motorists'who pass that way, this summer will be real pioneers. The new road is built through the heart of some of the• finest scenery 10 the Rock. ies, seventy-three miles of it being through virgin mountain and forest country where many of the peaks as yet bear no name.. It crosses two' mountain passes., the main range of the Rooky. Mountains being traversed' via the Vermilion pass at an altitude. of 6,000 feet and later the Brisco range through the Sinclair pass at an eleva- tion of 4,950 feet. The grades, how- ever, are easy, the average being 3 per cent. and, the maximum 9 per resit„• which is maintained only for about 400 feet.

Miss Margaret I. -Fraser, R.R, 2, Thessalon, Ont., has proved the value of this treatment. She says: "I was very pale and weak. .My blood was poor, and S was very nervous. I Post my appetite, my feet and ankles were swollen and I was in a very mis- arable condition. A friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I got two boxes, and found before they were finished that they were helping me. I continued the pills, until I had taken a half dozen boxes, with the re- sult that I am now enjoying the beat of health, all symptoms having disap- peared. I feel confident that what Dr. Williams.' Pink Pills did for me they Will do for others, if given a fair trial."

Now that the British Government has appointed a notable committee o•f experts to aot in no -operation with American experts, in investigating the problem of wireless telephony over long distances and especially to make wireless telephony a commercial possi- bility between America and Gt. Britain, there are ,some enthusiasts here who see the day not far distant when pas- sengers on the Atlantic highway can keep yin touch with business• interests on both sides of the big pond. during the whole six days of the voyage, 8075 a London despatch. Much of the mystery of ocean travel, they argue, then will be over for the Atlantic lane will be the objective of telephonic communication from both sides. What is adding to the•onthusi- asm of veteran travelers too, le the possibility of being regaled with broad- cast concerts from both sides of the water while a ship is at sea. It Ismailia to be seen whether Brit- ish shipping lines will follow the exem- pla of having oeean•geing Follies• as planned for the Leviathan. The French already have promised to provide the- atrical troupes for some liners going to South America. What evidently is stimulating the British seriously to take up wireless telephony is the success achieved in the United States. About two months' ago attention was centred on wireless. telephonic Possibilities when the American Telephone and Telegraph Company and the Radio Corporation of New York through the Western Elec- tric Cosnpany sent a message of con- siderable -length at a pre arranged time which was clearly audible to a big audience in London. What also has centred public atten- tion on the matter of communication with America is the frequency with which broadcast concerts from Ameri- ca• are clearly heard here, including the -Yankee "twang,” 'as it was des- cribed.

We often speak of our bodies as ma- chines or engines' working upon prin- ciples similar to those employed in mechanics. The idea that the food we eat resembles in its action the fuel supplied to a furnace is familiar, and yet one can hardly avoid a little start of surprise upon learning that the'lawa of heat engines are soberly applied to explain the growth of plant and ani- mal life. This leas been done in a most inter• eating 'way by a British, scientist be- fore the Philosophical Society in Lon- don, Ile points• out, for instance, that the increase of available energy re- sulting from the building up of a plant out of inorganic. substances can only be explained, in accordance with ther- modynamic laws, by differences' of temperature during the growth of the plant, and•h'is calculations show that the difference between day and night is quite sufficient to account for the differences of temperature required. Similar principles apply to the growth of animals, Nature gives noth- ing for nothing, and demands • an exact equivalent for every expenditure of her energies, whether she is• aiding man to drive an engine, causing an oak to grow or building up the muscles, of an. athlete or the brain of a phil- osopher. And as far as her work upon the planet is concerned the source of her supplies in. all these cases is. the sun. No Repentance Now.

A story almost incredible to Euro- pean ears of the savage man's faith in human sacrifice to propitiate the weather god has just been received from Rhodesia, writes a correspondent to "The London Daily News." Following continued drought, an un- fortunate native was seized, bound and publicly burned to death as an offering to the Rain God. A tragic coincidence was the almost simultaneous tweaking of the drought, and this, of course, des- pite the fact that sixty-three mea have been arrested on a charge of murder in connection with' the affair, is the surest guarantee that a custom which has already sent some seveaty unfor- tunate men to a homed death will be continued. For SOme time past the elders of the Mtawera tribe, alarmed at the long drought and the poor crops, following a soason of famine, have.been holding councilaled by a "rain doctor." The outcome of these councils was a de- cision to offer to the Rain God Mwarl something Which had never failed to earn his favor-ea„human victim burn- ed before a suppliant people. Select a Human Victim. The elder's choice fell upon a native named Mtegedt, whose preference for one of his follow tribesmen's wives had been noted and resented.' The fact that the man was, a brother of the injured. husband and a son of the "rain doctor” did not -save him. The 'chief's approval having -been given, a number of natives were sent to secure the victim, and a sacrificial pyre was prepared. The man, Mtegedt, was captured, bound, and dragged to the pyre, around which a great crowd of natives' had assembled. ' The doomed man struggled violent- ly, but a whole people were against him, and he was thrown into the llamee. Then followed th'a strange, uncanny coincidence' referred to. Life had hardly left Mtegedt when the weather broke.

These were still in pro- gress when two police troopers from the mount Darwin Police camp,' forty miles• to the south, arrived.. • Several terrible reefs of the Sacri- fice were found, and in the end sixty three men of the tribe were arrested on a charge of murder. Some of the natives told the officers of several other • previous sacrifices, and the Paramount Chief, Ohlswiti, when brought to the police camp, de- olared that- within 1.15' own memory, seventy-two natives had been burned in this district to propitiate the spirit which is supposed to send the rain.

Intensifying the perfume of flowers ie the latest horticultural experiment in France, says a Paris despatch. Re- sults achieved by Prof. Daniel, of the University of Rennes, were presented here yesterday before the' Academy of Sciences and declared to open up a new field allowing hitherto undreamed of possibilities for .perfume makers. 'By grafting a shoot of wormwood on a chrysantheum it was found the odor of the chrysanthemum was greatly in- tensified. From the seeds of the graft splendid plants were obtained the fol- lowing year, which produced flowers. Some of the b•1'ossoms had powerful perfume, but others were entirely odorless. Although' the experimentation admit- tedly is in its infancy, St is generally agreetl this new horticultural wrinkle is capable of tremendous results Prom- s. roma commercial standpoint, and for that reason it is to be tried on a great scalp at Grasse, the centre of the per- fume industry of.
