ALASKAN PEAKS GIVE UP CLAIM TO HIGHMARKS Science Disproves Fable of Twin Mounts Being Highest. Bi/ Time * Special JASPER PARK, Alberta, May 11. —Today it is a matter of common knowledge to every school child that the highest peak in America, excluding Alaska and the Yukon, is Mount Whitney, 14,501 feet, In California. Twenty years ago when their elders were going to school It was equally certain that the highest altitude on the continent was attained by either Mount Brown of Mount Hooker, high above Athabaska pass, in what today is Jasper National Park, Alberta, but In what at that time was but a dimly known north country. Fable Draws Attention So much can fable do, even for the height of a mountain. These twin peaks which stood guard over the pass that was the gateway between the valleys of the Columbia river and the prairies to the east of the mountains became endowed with marvelous proportions by the early travelers, unaccustomed to the spectacle of height, who passed beneath their shadows. David Thompson, noted explorer and geographer of the West, estimated their altitude to be about eighteen thousand feet. In 1836 James Renwick, professor of chemistry and physics at Columbia College. communicated his belief to Wasihngton Irving, the writer, that these mountains compared in height with the Himalayas. Named for Botanists David Douglas, distinguished botanist from whom the Douglas fir of the western coast receives its name, when making the overland journey about 1825, placed the height of these peaks at close to seventeen thousand feet. He named them Booker and Brown after two botanists he had admired. And so the legend persisted until close on twenty years ago. It was dissipated by expeditions taken by Professor Coleman of Toronto which settled the altitude at something close to that given by the InterProvincial Boundary Survey in 1920, namely Mount Brown 9,156 feet; Mount Hooker 10,872 feet. Man’s zeal for precision had toppled another fond illusion persisting through the years. ( FATHERS 37 CHILDREN 32 Are Ills Own; Calls Roll at Meal Time.
