What vacation would be more restful, safer, and fruitful of serenity of the mind than a trip up and down the river on a barge?

COPGLAND EVKHY now and then during the summer mouths, my thoughts go out to the vacationist. think of the thousands who are somewiieie pleasure bent, of those w ho seek rest and recuperation from strenuous city life. 1 give thought to those who expect to build for health against the stress anil strain of the rest of the year.

IIl-'IiF in Oregon we have spent more than JIHO.UOO.OOO In build ing a fine system of highways. One of our purposes iu expending this large sum was to attract tour ists to our stale, because tourist? bring money with thein and SPEND It here.

( Thai is why nearly every slate in the Cnion Is trying to attract Ibe tourist and his dollar. THIO states that are most sue- cessful in at t raiding tourists and their dollars do not rely upon highways and scenery alone. They add historical interest to their oili er attractions.

A survey oi the 48 states amounted, in essence, to the simple grammatical job of compar ing an adjective hot. hotter tint. West. Columbus, O., with an official 1 112 degrees, rated the superlative. Virginia, Maryland and West Vir ginia saw red in their thermome ters at 106 or better. Official readings of 100 degrees or higher were taken In the slates of Ohio, Michigan, Maryland, West Virginia, Kansas, Wisconsin, Cali fornia and in the District of Co lumbia. If readings of 98 were in cluded, it would add the states of Pennsyvania, Texas, Tennessee, and Oklahoma. Deaths were reported from wide ly separated sections. There were many drownings, as the na tion's swimming pools and beaches swarmed with holiday millions. Prostrations, too, were numerous. Rains In Northwest The northwest, which has had its fill of hot weather this season, gained relief yesterday when se vere wind and rain storms swept sections of that country. The for tunate few in Michigan's upper peninsula, sandwiched between lakes ' Superior and Michigan, en joyed temperatures In the upper sixties. The heat wave will be broken late today or tonight in a large part of the norm central states. the Chicago forecaster prophesied. rreiiictions tor Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas, Wisconsin and Illi nois carried such encouraging phrases as "somewhat cooler," and "seasonable temperatures." The break in heat had penetrated into western Iowa last night. Iowa Corn Periled The double damage of heat and drought was noted in many grain slates. In Iowa, particularly, the fired corn threatened serious loss to fanners unless benevolent rains fell soon. An unofficial observer in iowa reported finding top soil in corn fields at a temperature of 144 degrees. The Iowa corn loss, some agri culturists estimated, already amounts to one bushel an acre, and if the drought extends much long er the estimated loss will be doubled, they said. William Clapper, president of a corporation operating five can neries in Iowa, said the state's crop for canning, including sweet corn, has been damaged 20 t o 50 per cent. Ohio and Kansas, as well && sev eral southern states, face crop loss unless showers soon supplant the sun. ' Harvest of Death BALTIMORE. July 21. Three deaths-'and a score of prostrations in MaTyland were blamed on the heat today as thermometers early gave Indications that yesterday's record breaking temperatures of above the century mark would be surpassed during the day. A clerk ou his way to work this morning dropped dead as the mer cury at 9 o'clock had passed the 90 degree mark. Another man died from a broken back received yes terday while he was swimming and a third man, apparently crazed by the 96 degree heat of Hagers- town, jumped fully clothed into the Potomac river and w- a s drowned. Cf.nital Swelters WASHINGTON, July 21. The capital today began another lap of its endurance contest with the heat, the thermometer registering 91 at 9 o'clock this morning. That was six degrees warmer than S o'clock vesterdav when the mercury soared to a record high of 105.6. The forecast for the District of Columbia predicted "continued warm weather" tonight. Some re lief was promised tomorrow. So intense was the heat today Secretary Stimson ordered the state department closed this after noon to give everyone who could be spared a temporary vacation. The mercury had climbed lo 100 by noon.

Roy, Faith's brother, and Dan'l Tobey, who loves Faiih, are among the crew. Noll's strength Is failing from age and drink. Seeking to discredit Noll iu Faith s eyes, Dan'l causes a quarrel be tween Noll and Mauger, one of the crew, during which Noll kicks out Mauger's eye. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VII Noll went into Uie after-cabin and found Faith there. Her back was turned, she was looking out of the stern windows. He wished she would look at him, but she did not. So he said, his voice thick with auger and at the same time plaintive with hunger for a reassuring word. "That, damned rat won't try that again!" Then Faith turned and told him: "That was a cowardly thing to do, Noll, my husband." He had come for comfort, he was ready to humble himself, he was a prey to the instinct of wrong doing man which bids him confess and be forgiven. But Faith's eyes accused him. When a man's wife turns against him he said, bit ter with rage: "Keep your mouth shut, child. This is not a piuk tea aboard the Sally Sims. You know nothing of what s necessary to handle rough men." Faith smiled a little wistfully. "I know It is never necessary to kick au unconscious man In the face," she said. He was so helpless with fury and shame and misery that he raised his great fist as though he would have struck even Faith. "Mind your own mat hers," be bade her harshly. "The dog struck me. Where would the ship be if I let that go? I should have killed him." "Did you not?" Faith asked gently. "I thought he would be dead." "No: hell, no!" Noll blustered "You can't kill a snake. He'll be poisonous as ever in a day." "I saw," said Faith ; she shud dered faintly. "I think his eye is gone. . "Eye?" Noll echoed. "What's an eye? He's lucky to , live. There's skippers that would have killed him where he stood. For what he did ' Faith shook her head. "He's only a little man, weak. found Its thermometers crawling above 89 at 11 a. m., today. Meanwhile tho threat of drought became more acute throughout-the district. Both in, Pittsburgh and lartinsburgh, W.

The heat wave in the south has brought, among other things, a story of pop corn popping on the stalk In a garden baked by the sun's tor rid rays.

There was no need of kicking nmi. The man filing Himself tnen into insane burst of anger at her. Ho haled the whole world, baled Kailh most of all because she would not soothe him and tell him never lo mind. He raved at her, gripped her round shoulders and shook her, flung her away from him. He was mad. And Kaith, steadfastly watching him, though hur soul trembled, prayed 111 her heart that she might find the way to bring Noll back lo manhood again; she endured his curses: she endured his harsh grip upon her shoulders. She waited, wnne lie xiooueu nt-i wim uue. And at the end, when he was quiet for lack of wolds to say, she went to him and touched his arm. "Noll," she said. He Jerked away from her. "What?" "Noll look at me." He obeyed, in spite of himself; and there were such dentils of ten derness and sorrow in her eyes that the man's heart melted iu him. "It's not Mauger I'm sorry for," she told him. "It's you. Noll. That you should be so cowardly, Noll" His rage broke then; he fell to fretting, whining. She sat down; he slumped like a child beside her. He told her he was tired, weary; that he was worried; that hi.? nerves had betrayed him; that thi-JI drink was in him. "They're all trying to stir me," he complained. "They take a Joy in doing the thing wrong. They're helpless, slithering fools. I lOBt myself, Faith." Ho pleaded with her, desperately anxious to make her understand; and Faith understood from tho be ginning, with the full wisdom of women, yet let him talk out all his unhappiuess and remorse. And because she loved him, her arms were about him and his great head was drawn against her breast long before he was done. She com forted him with touches of her light hands upon his head; she soothed him with murmurs that were no words at all. The man reveled iu this orgy of self-abasement.
