Hackensack, N.J., March 25. -- Margaret Fox, 17 years old, a steno- grapher, employed in a Newark lawyer's office, and Loretta Daion, 17, a stenographer at the Newark Technical' School, met two young men in an automobile in Broad street, Newark, about 8 o'clock Fri- day night. Margaret thought she knew one of the men as "Eddie", a youth employed in the bullging where she worked. An hour and a half later Harvey Paps, Westwood, walking along a lonely road back of that town, found both girls lying by the roadside. Mar- garet was unconscious. Loretta was attempting to revive her. She instst- ed there had been an automobile ac- cident. The Westwood police and the state constabulary soon reached the scene. Both girls were taken to Hackensack hospital. Margaret was seriously injured. Loretta was afs- ent activity of transforming a wild- erness into a garden. eaux Lake to the International Boun- . The nertherly part of the settlement is 22 miles from Pentic- fon. Water for the irrigation is sup- plied from the Okanagan river which, at point of diversion, is about three-quarters of a mile below Vaseaux Lake and has a width of 200 feet. A concrete dam raises the surface of the water 8 feet. The system has been built in a very per- manent way with concrete lined ditches which prevent seepage losses, concentration of mineral- salts and water logging. The canal is 18 feet wide on top, five and a half feet deep and capacious enough to run a boat with a flow of 170 cubic feet per second. Eleven miles of the project ds finished, 5 miles partly done and when fimished, 22 miles of canal will be built to the Boundary. From the Frying SiS posisian of the SBpo- , many engineering problems or dlteicalties arose--problems that 'were unique in engineering in Am- erica. Various ments had to be resorted to which included the use of great wood stave pipes and rivet- 'ed steel pipes, some 80 inches in 'diameter. i An example of the immensity of the task as well as of the engineer- fing skill required is the construction of thirteen flumes in the nine miles from the Intake to the cement pipe works.

Miss Fox and the short man were in the rear. We kept repeating that we had' to be at home at 10 o'clock. The driv- er said we were in Rutherford ana that they would turn back to Newark. "Then we stopped in front or a garage and one of the men asked the men in charge for some water. I ask- ed thé girage man where we were and the tall man whispered "Tell them they are in Rutherford.'

A plant for the manufacture of concrete pipes is one of the ex- tensive industries of the settlement. Twelve miles of pipe will be built this seasen by 26 men, with an out- put of 650 feet of piping a day. A Jortion of the land was put on sale last spring and about 600 acres sold. The first orchard was planted by Perley Simpson, a returned sol. dier, belonging to the construction camp. The town of Oliver will be the ad- ministrative centre of the district. It is one of the few planned towns in Canada and is not being de- veloped in a haphazard way with speculation in sub-divisions.
