The following tribute to the
grandeur of Mt. Hood was writ­
ten by J. Crawford Morris, of
Harrisville, Ohio, who recently
visited Dr. and Mrs. O. A. Hess
and with them visited Mt. Hood
Mr. Morris is on an extensive
tour through this country and
Canada and the letter was writ­
ten at Montreal, Quebec:
Mount Hood, what a feeling
of awe you inspired as I stood
upon your rocky side six thou­
sand feet above sea level, and
gazed in wonder at your snow­
capped peak, peering out above
thexclouds hundreds of feet
above me. How insignificant
mere man seems in the pres­
ence of such evidence of the
mighty work of the Great
Architect of the Universe.
What an almighty force it
must have been to raise this
gigantic mountain so far above
the bosom of Mother Earth,
that its sides are mantled with
perpetual snows. How incom­
parable she stands in her silent
beauty, and how terrible a men­
ace she would be should her
internal fires become lighted
through volcanic action of her
internal organization. May her
activity never be aroused to
mar the face of her beautiful
sides and disturb the happy in­
habitants at her feet. What a
wonderland she is to the bot­
anist who finds unusual beauty
in her plant life, and to the ge­
ologist who knows that ndr'bug
life is so different from any
east of the Rockies. And let
us not forget the manVith the
microscope who discovers her
hidden beauties in depths that
the human eye cannot pene­
trate unaided; and still the hid­
den wonders of Mt. Hood are
not all revealed. What a god­
send are her melted snow wat­
ers to the country below, and
what a force is within the
grasp of man when her dash­
ing, tumbling and running
streams are harnessed and util­
ized.
The mountains of our coun­
try are all beautiful, each in its
own way; but any person is
fully justified in a trip across
the continent for one sight of
Mount Hood, not considering
the fascination of spending a
night in the open on her grassy
slopes, and lulled to sleep by
one of her little cascades and
the soothing odor from her pine
scented, ozonated, health giving
air, and to be awakened in the
morning by a choir of insect
and bird life, just as the sun’s
warm rays penetrate the woods,
and all Nature is astir with the
dawn of a new day, and you
feel that life is surely worth
living.
John Brooks and Mrs. Mae
Jesse, both of Eighty-fourth
street, were quietly married at
Vancouver, Wash., September
27. But not so quietly but
that a large number of friends
gathered on Monday evening
and gave them a good, old-time
charivari, to which the happy
couple responded with a liberal
treat. We understand they will
make their home with Mr.
Brook’s mother, Mrs. Flora, of
Eighty-fourth street, for the
present.
Mr. and Mrs. George Hamil­
