JOHN DAY VALLEY IS SECOND GRAND CANYON Dazzling- Beauties of Kusteiii Oregon District Impresses Univer sity Scientists. University of Oregon, Eugene, Aug. j. The Grand Canyon of the Color .do is duplicated, on a somewliui. mailer scale, in the John Day val ey, in the opinion of Dr. Warren D. .niitli, professor of geology in the J'nivtrsity of Oregon, who, with Dr. j. L. Packard, his associate in the Jejai'.muut, recently spent a monlli .n that region on a scientific exploi ,ng expedition. "One of the new post roads pro posed for central Oregon is to run .liiuugh this most interesting re iion," said Dr. Smith. "When tha. .lard-sun'actd highway is completed, tourists will flock into that country, and they will be rewarded with scen ery which, in my judgment, surpasses even ti.-. ...c fanuus Columbia Highway. "It will be expensive construction, owing to the nature of the country, where cloudbursts, or w.aterspouts, are not infrequent during the sum mer. "Picture gorge cuts through fifteen different flows of Columbia basalt, tilted at an angle. One thousand feet of cliff is all in columns. The stream goes through the gorge along a cut not more than 150 feet wide. The resemblance to the Grand Canyon comes in the vastness of section ex posed and the wonderful colors ex hibited by these great beds. The Co lumbia basalt of the region overlies one thousand feet of variegated tuff volcanic ash beds. The top of these beds is pink; below that, the shade is buff; then come green and blue; next a whitish color, and finally I at tlie bottom, a dark red series of! beds. All these are eroded in fan-1 tastic shapes, like the Bad Lands of' Dakota. I "At the southern entrance of Pic-' ture gorge are found the Indian writ-1 ings from which the place takes Its name. The picture-writing is in red paint, probably more of some mineral coloring-matter, and it lias stood the. test of many years without the least apparent fading. These figures ante date the memory of anyone now liv ing in the region. They are proba bly fairly modern, of course, repre senting a period during the early set tlement of Oregon. The most com mon of the pictures appears to be the figure of a bug, and another resem bles a pair of shears. An old Indian of the region told a neighboring ran cher that the writing was probably the work of sheep-stealing Indians, done with the purpose of warning agaiust shtep-shcaicrs and against ticks carrying spotted fever. These writings have defied the sun and snow and wind and rain of many decades." Telephone Company Inau- " garates Promotion Plan Over three million telephone calls are handled by The Pacific Telephoue and Telegraph Company. This ser vice is rendered to the users of six hundred thousand telephones. Pa trons naturally come into closest re lations with the telephone operators who respond to their calls. .Occa sionally, iu matters of contract, col lections, adjustments, etc., they meet with the business representatives of the company who form what is known as the commercial depart ment of the company. . a But the public may not realize the existence of a large force of trained employees whom they never see, but upon whose efficiency depend in a great measure the promptness and quality of the service rendered. This force is known as the Plant Depart ment and with the Pacific Company numbers over four thousand men scattered throughout its territory. These are the men who Install and maintain pole lines, switchboards, ca bles, conduits and the material in strumentalities of service. They may be found upon the cross-arms of the long distance lines, in the man holes beneath the traffic of crowded city streets, behind the" switchboards ad justing their delicate mechanism or in the draughting room. They are called upon for the labor of heavy construction and the technical skill required in the installation and ad justment of complicated apparatus. The executives of the telephone cimpany reallzez that its plant de partment must be kept in a high state of efficiency both for routine work and emergencies' constantly occur ring. With this object i" view, the Pacific Company has recently inaug urated a routine which it calls a "Plan for Examination for Promo lion and Increased Compensation for Plant Department Employees." This plan provides for detailed but practical examinations to be con ducted under the direction of exam iners chosen from plant supervisory forces such as district superintend ents, wire chiefs and foremen. All employees are eligible who can show a preliminary service of one year. No deductions are made in the com pensation of applicants for time re quired by examinations, and even the cost of transportation is allowed to and from the places where such ex aminations are held. The wages and standing of applicants not passing are not accepted, and liberal privi leges as to further examinations are provided for. In general, examina tion questions are directed to the ef i'ort to ascertain the abilities of the applicant bearing upon his particular knowledge of the work in which he ias been employed, his familiarity with other lines of telephone work associated with his own, his know ledge of "safety first" measures and ules, and of public regulations ap plicable to construction and his re sponsibilities in his particular terrl ;ory. A utility is as eager to obtain com jetent men for its responsible posi ions as are its employees for "the job ahead," and the telephone com pany is endeavoring in this fair and equitable manner to find those who are deserving of promotion. The Company has met w ith a grat ifying response from its employees, many of whom have already present ed themselves for examination. The Company management realizes that the increased efficiency of the individ ual in its ranks means added success in its operations. For the public it is a guaranty of a plant well estab lished and maintained, In other words, prompt and dependable tele phon service. Taken Out One Man Harvester.
