A Vacatien 'Trip
After a short vacation trip we are
again back at our post of duty ready
to assume the various duties of the
service.
My family ami myself had a very
interesting and pleasant ami rather
extended trip. We did not suffer from
the heat during the entire trip.
Many places of interest were visit-
ed during our vacation, including Na
tional Bridge, Virginia, the Norris
Dam in Tennessee, and the many
places of interest in ami near Wash
ington. Constitution Hall in Philadei
phia. Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, the
famous pleasure resort at Atlantic
fity, and a trip across the entire Old
South.
Space would not permit a detailed
account of th** many places of his-
toric. economic and scenic beauty ex-
perieneed « n this trip. We will say a
word about th*' system of dams being
constructed in the Tennessee River
water basin of which Hie Norris dam
is on** unit and the Wilson dam is an-
ot he r.
When this system has been complet-
<•<1, it will provide one of the largest
systems of inland water transporta-
tion and flood control system in
America.
The valley is more than eleven hun-
dred miles long and from two hundred
and fifty to three miles wide.
Remember the primary purpose is
flood control, and the generation of
electricity is rather incident to the
project. They are prepared, he wever,
to supply large quantities of elec-
