Sfcope of Fine Country.
r BI CHESTER A. MOORE8.
Automobile and good roads history
was made Sunday, when Henry Wag
ner, Jr., on a pathnndins trip for The
Oregonian. drove his Packard "48" the
full lengrth of the Columbia River
Highway from Portland to The Dalles,
south through Central Oregon to Tygh
Valley and Waplnitia, and, completing
the circuit of Mount Hood, drove over
the old Barlow trail past Government
Camp and Rhododendron Tavern into
"Portland.
The start was made at 6:30 Sunday
morning and the loop of 235.7 miles
was concluded before dark. Authorities
all along the route agree that yester
day's trip is the first to be made by
automobile around Mount Hood and
the flrat combination of the famous Co
lumbia River Highway and Mount Hood
trips.
Four on History-SI skins; Trip.
In the car with "Heinle" "Wagner, the
pilot, were his father, Henry Wagner,
Sr.. owner of the car: E. J. Clark, vice
president of the Frank C. Bisss Com
pany, and the writer.
"After touring across the continent
several times. 1 am convinced that the
loop around Mount Hood is .the greatest
trip that is offered in the entire coun
try, if not the entire world." said Mr.
Wagner last night. "This trip In
volves every conceivable variety of
scenery and every variety of road, be
ing, in fact, a miniature transconti
nental tour."
While traveling over the Columbia
Highway we viewed what is regarded
by experts as being the scenic highway"
of the world; then in the Hood River
and Mosier territory we had a full view
of the world-famous orchards in a
beautiful valley that is framed by three
snow-capped peaks. Hood, Adams and
Jefferson: later we passed through the
yellow wheat lands of Wasco County
and got a touch of real sage-brush
country, a land that is so desolate that
it fascinates; then, with Mount Hood,
as a pivot for many miles, we swung
through a picturesque mountain coun
try over a road that was used by the
Oregon pioneers with their ox teams
more than a half century ago. The en
trance was made to Portland through
Marmot. Bull Run, Gresham and the
Powell Valley road.
Raasing Time 11 Honrs.
The total elapsed time of the entire
trip was considerably less than 16 hours
and- the actual running time was ap
proximately 11 hours. The latter fig
ure will not be determined definitely
until the first log of the trip is made
today from the notes taken by the
writer on the trip. Suffice it to say
here that more than an hour was taken
out for luncheon, a half hour for a
stop at The Dalles, another half hour
delay necessitated in Tygh, Valley
Canyon, when eight wagonloads of
gypsles were tied up with us on a nar
row grade, over a half hour for two
blowouts, and two hours or more for
taking pictures for The Oregonian and
for incidentals. The mere fact that
Mr. Wagner took 40 pictures on the
trip Indicates how many short stops
were made along the route.
We arrived at The Dalles, 93 miles
out of Portland, at 5 minutes before
10 o'clock. By computing our stops
roughly we figured that the actual
running time to Hood River, 69 miles
from Portland, was three hours and
the time to The Dalles four hours. At
Waplnitia, on the other side of Mount
Hood, our speedometer registered 140.6
miles for the trip that far. Our only
meal on the trip was eaten along Bear
Creek In the heart of the Cascade
Mountains back of Mount Hood, short
ly before 2 o'clock. At Government
Camp the speedometer showed 177.7
miles for the day and the clock 10
minutes past 5. When the pathfind
ing car pulled up at the door of The
g Oregonian building last night a few
minutes after 9 o'clock the mileage
register stood at 235.7 miles!
Trip Not for Amateurs.
Although an experienced driver with
a dependable machine could possibly
duplicate Mr. Wagner's performance of
yesterday, the feat is not recommended
for the trial of amateur or mediocre
drivers. The trip, particularly if it is
to be made in the seemingly impossible
space of one day, requires a driver of
transcontinental class and experience.
For the most part the Columbia River
Highway was found in fine condition,
although there are some difficult
grades, especially the pull around
Mitchells Point.
Now rfVat the way has been blazed
by -Mr. "Avagner, however, many will
want to attempt the trip, and for that
reason The Oregonian .will publish a
detailed report of the trip, together
with a. log of the loop, in the automo
bile section next Sunday.
ASSAULT VERSIONS. DIFFER
Jealous Husband Admits Chastising
MeMinnville Rancher.
With a black eye, a bruised jaw,
several teeth knocked out. minor abra
sions and scalp wounds. A. H. Adams,
aged 48. of MeMinnville. was found on
the 'street near the Southern Hotel
early Sunday morning.
"I've been beaten and robbed." he
told- the police, and was removed to
the Good Samaritan Hospital for treat
ment. Robert P. Moran, of the Southern
Hotel, was arrested yesterday, charged
with committing assault and battery
upon Adams. He told Detectives
Tichenor and Howell, who made the
arrest, a different story. He said he
had come home late Saturday night
and had found Adams in Mrs. Moran's
apatt merits.
Confronted by this, Adams admitted
that-he had been ir a room with Mrs.
If or an. but was only talking with her
regarding her employment as a house
keeper for himself - and child on a
ranch near MeMinnville, if Moran
would not object.
Moran did not deny beating Adams
in a jealous rage. ...
ANOTHER EARLE ACCUSED
Wife Says Mate Has Affinities, as
Did His Brother.
VEW TORK. July 6. Ferdinand
Pinney Karle, the artist of "affinity"
fame, will now have an opportunity of
defending his brother, William P. 8.
Earle. the Fifth avenue photographer,
as William defended him in" some of
Ferdinand's matrimonial entangle
ments. Guggenheimeh, Vntermyer Sc.
Marshall today brought suit in the Su
preme Court against the photographer
on the part of Mrs. Valerie Damon de
Bloise Karle, asking for a divorce from
William on the ground that he has had
two unnamed affinities.
William P. 8. Karle was married in
1905 to Miss Valerie Damon de Blola.
daughter of Mrs. Julia de Blois. of
Brooklyn. The event was especially
noticeable from the fact that, while
the guests were getting ready to show
er the departing pair with rice and old
shoes, .and trying to attach to their
carriage a sign reading "We're Just
married." Mr. and Mrs. Karle climbed
out of the skylight and slipped out an
other way.
Later, when Ferdinand Pinney Karle's
propensity for affinities attracted pub
lic attention. William P. 3. Karle de
fended his brother in the following
manner:
"Many men have married as many
times as my brother and other men
have married more times than he, and
yet nobody said anything about it.
Who has a right to say exactly how
many times a man may wed with pro
priety? It is all on account of the use
of the word 'affinity.' If it had not
been for that unfortunate word the
newspapers would never have made
any such fuss over my brother's per
sonal affairs."
DR. ROBERG TO ACCEPT
FHYSICI.l.X, BACK FROM CHINA, TO
SUCCEED DR. WHITE.
Announcement Is Made Duties as State
Health Officer Likely Will Be
Taken Ip Late In September, f
Dr. David X. Roberg, who arrived in
Portland Saturday from China, where
he has been doing research work for
the state the past two years, announced
Sunday night that he would accept the
place of State Health Officer, to which
he was elected. . Dr. Roberg was chosen
by the State Board of Health several
months ago to succeed Dr. Calvin S.
White.
Dr. Roberg said that he probably
would assume the duties of his new
office late in September or the first
of October. - He said that there was no
specified time for the change and that
the matter would probably be decided
by the inclinations of himself and Dr.
White.
The health officer-elect said that-he
was not prepared to announce what his
policy would be or whether there would
be any radical changes in the conduct
of the office after he has assumed
control. He said that his first duty
would be to get into working order
the new system of registering vital
statistics, which was provided for by
a bill passed by the last Legislature.
This bill provides for the registering
of the statistics by deputies who are
directly under the control of the state
health officer instead of by the county
health officers as heretofore.

Madam, Allow Me
To Introduce the
New
Post Toasties
You may have eaten "corn flakes" but
you have never tasted any that equal the
New Post Toasties.
These new flakes, madam, are crisp and
flakey, and have a substance and toastie
flavour, a snap and zest that make them
distinctive.
Dainty to be sure in their sweetness, the New Post Toasties have a body
and firmness that don't mush down when cream or milk is added; and a tine
ripe-corn flavour that makes one feel that here, at last, is something really
new and good to eat.
New Post Toasties selected Indian corn, prepared for the table as it was
never prepared before.
Your grocer has them now.
