Oregon's far famed acenle wonder will be eaelly ac cesalble to all travelers. Altboucb aiucti work haa been done on Xhim proj x t within the present rear. It la far from being- complete. Plfflculty In ae lurlnf financial aid with which to tarry on te work has delayed prorreaa. The campaign for the construction of this hlghwsy has been waged for tbe laat three or four years. Al the lake la a state aseet and the Nation's prop erty, the Interest In efforts to place It In oloeer touch with every lover of nature and the beautiful baa attraoted widespread attention. Several years ago tbe State Legislature appropriated Iia0.6)O for the work, but after plans tied been drawn payment waa wlth fteld oa the ground that tbe law under which the appropriation waa obtained eras unconstitutional. t'ndistnayed. Rogue River Valley peo ple who bad been Inatrumental In ob taining the state'a promise of aaela-tanf-e started a campaign for funds by private subscriptions. They succeeded In raising IJS.O". B. T.

Pumice lilll. the greatest obstacle In the way. was cut down to an excellent grade, but the 11 miles oT highway thus created waa secured at a cost of 111 coo. Part of the fundi were appropriated by the County Court, while other money waa raised by the Medford Commercial Club. Reveral firms and Individuate also subscribed to the fund, but later repudiated their prom ises to pay. Now the Medford Com mercial Club la endeavoring to collect oa these subscriptions. The total mount Involved tn these delinquent ac counts Is la excess of 115.000. More than $35,000 already has been expend ed, but half tbe work ha not been done. The proposed road Is St miles long. Everyone who has visited Crater Lake has gone Into ecstasies over Its soenlo grandeur, and all are enthust sstlo supporters of the scheme to build the road from the valley belo to Its shores. They declare that with ample facilities for reaching- this natural beauty spot. It will become as famous and aa popular aa Niagara Falls. Yel lowstone 1'ark. the Grand Canyon or any of the other well-known attrac tions of the country. The lake Itself Is one of Nature's marvels, and tbe scenery surrounding It Is unexcelled. Crater Lake cannot bo compared with any other work of nature. The eu premacy of each natural creation etaads undisputed. Crater Lake has a unique place among tbe world's won ders. Scene la Awe-Insplrins;. Crater Lake Is located on the summit and la the very heart of the Cascade ranks. Ita name describee It perfectly. Its extreme depth Is approximately l-00 feet, and Its walls rise abruptly above Its surface fully 2000 feet higher In Irregular and etrtklna-ly picturesque formstions. It Is possible to stand on top of some of these walls and drop pebbles Into the water 1309 feet below, so nearly vertical are they. Tbe crater Is slightly elliptical In shape, and Is about mllee In diameter at Its wid est point. Near the western shore Is a huge cinder cone liS feet high, with another crater. lOe feet deep. In Ita summit. It Is known as Wlaard Inland. Near the eastern shore a Jagged raek rises abruptly from the water to a height of feet and on account of Its resemblance to a sailing vessel has been named Phantom Ship. Fo far aa naturalists and explorers have been able to learn there le abso lutely n.t Inlet or outlet to the lake. Ita origin and the atrange formations which surround It never have been de termined. Most scientists accept the theory that the mountain In which the lake now rests waa at one time a mighty voloano that settled within It self, taking into the earth's Interior an Inesttmsble quantity of rocks and lava, and leaving thla depression In place of Its peak- Tbe lake was dlcovered In US! by John A. Htllmaa and a party of pros pectors. Because cf the deep Indigo 1. lm waters. It was then named Deep Blue Lake, but It has since been known sa Lake Mystery. Lake Majesty. Hole In the Cround. and Anally as Cntr Lake, which most natural name II no doubt will retain. The mountain containing this mystsrlous body of water baa been named Mount Maaama. after a mountain climbing Club of the Northwest. In the Summer of 1S W. C. Steel, a pioneer mountain climber and writer of Oregon, started a movement to se cure a Nstlonsl Park which would ln elude Crater Lake, ana in January lowing President Cleveland signed a proclamation withdrawing ten town - 3 i f i v.

Recently efforts have been made to secure additional Government aid for Improvement of the park, ao that It may receive the same share of atten tion that le given to other National acentc reserves.
