May it be a beacon to light the way of
weary searchers after TRUTH.
One hemisphere of Mars showing the North Polar Cap and the main
Canal System covering the planet. The many thousands of small
lateral canals, radiating from the larger waterways, and which
form an important part of the general plan, have been purposely
omitted from the above to avoid confusion. The circular spots
and dots are the principal reservoirs used for impounding water
for use during the long Martian summer. The dark areas shown in
the drawing are Mars ancient sea bottoms now covered with
vegetation. It will be observed that most of the canals are
double, paralleling each other at a distance of about
seventy-five miles. Centers of population are not shown for the
reason that space is not available on so small a drawing. The
City of Urid is situated adjacent to the reservoir in the center
of drawing, just north of the equator.
