Today Cedar C'ty is ti e key to the mystic Wonderland that Utah. characterizes southern an .1 rit:-iIf you want a tl : T., if ycu like mountain roads, and want to test your nerves and your car's p: formance, take the road that leads directly east from Cedar City. The bus route is so arranged that this tortuous stretch of road mey be taken down hill, for Cedar Breaks is a full 4,500 feet higher ts-- n C:dar City only 23 miles away a climb or nearly 200 feet every m.le. Immediately tabt of t'.ie town the road enters rugged Cedar. Canyon, its slopes covered with fine forests of conifers and aspens. The walls assume imrr"cive rcstellated forms that are especially striking at the mouth of Asudown Gorge, eight miles distant. Ashdown Gorge tortuous and precipitous rift in the plateau, is an extremL.y na: down which rushes a spr.rkling stream from the vast furrows of Breaks. About a mile from the mouth and high up the precipice is arch of about sixty feet and a span of about a natural brUe with seventy feet. Following Conl Creek, ever upward, the road presently occupies a shelf upon t!i3 shoulder of Makagunt, Plateau. The whole sweep of the Terraced riaU-- a country to the' south' is visible. Some twenty-fivmiles directly south, slashed into the green of Kolob Plateau, are the temples and towers of Zion, the Grand West Temple mazy white-toppedominating the sone. Several extinct volcanic' peaks are In the foreground. This Immense range of visibility is one of the strong attractions of tin Tnrraced Plateau country; one sees, again and again in aew and startling: aspects, the salient features of hundreds of miles of territory and Its geologic structure. At Midway the road turns northward for three miles through stately pines, furr, end spruces, and comes without warning to the abyss named Cedar Breaks. Your car takes you to the very brink of this series of vast amphitheatres 2,000 feet deep and 10,400 feet above at tha rim. This great chasm, eroded 2,000 feet into Pink Cliff formation covering sixty square miles in Sevier National Forest, is splashed with nature's finest array of coloi" buttes, cliffs, pillars of and snow white. The blunted volcanio pale pink, flaming crest of Brian Head rises 800 feet higher affording a panorama of practically all of southern Utah, Nevada, and northern Arizona. Along the rims are easily reached viewpoints among them Point Supreme, Point Perfection, and Point Lookout. Here nature has worked a miracle not only of color, but of sculpture. Men have been known to weep at the grandeur nature here re-veals. Unlike Zion Canyon Cedar Breaks Is first seen from the top. In this gigantic amphitheatre many softer colors are subtly blended, and the formations are most striking. In recognition of its high scenic values It was made a National Monument by Presidential Proclamation late In 1933 and dedicated as such on July 4, 1934. The Indian name is fairly descriptive. It is "circle of painted cliffs". But Cedar Breaks Is more than that It Is a series of broken circles with the ends joined, each part of a circle breaking down from the high plateau Into yawning chasms. Within the amphitheatres of Cedar Breaks, the sloping side walls are furrowed and corroded, broken Into massive ridges which radiated from the center like the spokes of a wheel, all overlaid with a sen of bright colors. Red Is the color most frequently found here, a sort of pinkish-rethat sometimes deepen into orange. But along with the green of the scattered pines, there are also shades of chocolate, yellow, lavender, purple, and white.

P I'i v Si an American admiral's nose! In that year Admiral I'erry landed ob the Island empire and gave the sons of Nippon their first Introduction to, American practices and habits. The MJtsiiI, which was then as now the Japanese family which represents to their business Morgan, Rockefeller and Ford all rolled into one, sent an artist, who might be compared to the photographer of today, to sketch a portrait of Admiral Perry. The portrait is still on exhibition at the Mitsui museum Fall of Meteor Despite the estimate that 21,000 tons of meteors fall on the earth's surface annually, it would require some 20,000,000,000 years at this rate for meteor "rains" to increase the radius of the earth as much as an inch, according to Dr. C. C. Wylie of the University of Iowa. ) in Tokyo. THISWEEK'SPR Each year on July 4th we feci anew a patriotic arc to be loyal, true eitizrni of But each day there are opportunities for citizens of thia intirranon-tai- n country to prove their loyalty te it our country. An Admiral's Nose. The artist accentuated the admiral's sharp features and gave him an extremely long and ridiculous nose. It looked much like one of our caricatures of the present day, but It was not a caricature. The artist was simply so auihzed at an ordinary occidental nose that he drew It all out of proportion. Admiral Perry's nose immediately became the sensation of Japan. It provoked an Insatiable curiosity regarding people who could have noses like that. The artist was hurried down to the ship to make a sketch of that, and of the tools and other belongings of the Americans. The Imitative ability of the Japanese Immediately began to make itself apparent, as the islanders began making things like those of the admiral and his companions for themselves. These few American ideas became so popular that it was not long before wealthy Japanese were sending the young hopefuls of their families to the United States, clad at first In kimonos, to study at American universities. They brought home with them the American banking system and scores of revolutionary ideas from American Industrial institutions. Today Japanese industry is a model of the "endless chain" system developed to so high a degree here by llenry Ford. Employed In the now great Japanese industrial plants are workers, both men and women, who have learned to practice an economy that would put the Scots to shame; They live in flimsy houses to a standard that seems unbelievable. Workers Are Skilled. It must not be supposed that because 'the average worker's income' is about $9 to $50 a month he Is a poor worker.. He is more likely to be highly intelligent, very fast and with a hunger for education seldom matched on this earth. And has a vastly greater purchasing power than it would appear to have. His production is always up to the utmost because the entire Japanese industrial system- - works on a bonus basis that allows extra pay for high efficiency, economy, safety and' production. The food the Japanese worker's family eats would look sorry, indeed, tdhthe American appetite. But the lowly Japanese Is not discontented, for his more; brothers and Weir 'families eat much the same menu as he does. Japanese housowives :feed a family of five for only about fitj cenf s. a day. For breakfast they have rice, bean soup and pickles';' for lunch; rice, salt salmon and boiled vegetables, and for dinner, rice, pofiTand cabbage, er vegetables. Dairy products acdjptjithe ese doos want and does dot like. The very lowest class of .coarse does-xno- t eat quite the menu outlined here, but subsists mainly on rice and tea.

Zebras' Stripes Animal experts have found that ordinary zebras have but 90 to 99 discernible stripes from nose to tail tip. An African zebra born in Fleishhacker zoo, San Francisco, has been found to have 100 stripes.
