WINS HIGH PRAISE
"The Guardians of the Colum
' bia," by John H. Williams, :
Lauded, in Review.
EASTERN PAPERS', LAVISH
Oregon Metropolis Is Commended' ns
City Beautiful, and Scenic Moun
tains of Pacific Northwest
Called Inspiring.
High praise for Portland and a note
worthy appreciation, by a famous trav-
ler and Alpinist, of the snow-peaks
seen from this city are expressed by
the New York Evening Fost in review.
ing a new Portland book. Oregon and
Washington mountain scenery, says the
New York newspaper, is "unsurpassed
unvwhere": It Ik destined to yield a
vast and profitable tourist crop.
The Kvening Post's comments were
called forth by "The Guardians of the
rvilumbia." the Illustrated volume
ivhl.-h John H. Williams has written
and published on the great scenery of
the Columbia-Cascade region. Calling
special attention to some of the book's
fine illustrations, the reviewer oe
rlares "Oreeon's metropolis one of the
most superbly placed cities in the
world."
As promoters of tourist travel to the
Northwest the Kvenlng Tost discusses
the now volume and its companion,
"The Mountain That Was 'God.'." by the
same author. In a review which Is re
markable alike for Its 'cordiality and
its acquaintance with the districts de
scribed in these books. The review is
from the pen of the well-known author
and traveler, Henry T. Finrk, one of
the editors of the paper. Mr. Finck,
who has many friends in Portland, has
himself described the Northwestern
fountains in one of his best known
books. "The Taclfic Coast Scenic Tour."
He spent the last Summer in Switzer
land.
Kxperl's Irnlie t.lvm.
Fresh from the glacial wonders of
the Alps, Mr. Finck nevertheless con
fesses that he is "awed and thrilled"
by the views of Mt. Hood and tne other
peaks shown in the Williams books.
His discussion of their value for tourists
follows:
By Issuing those two handsomely Illus
trated volumes on the mountains and for
ests of our Northwest, Mr. Williams has
rendered a service of great value to the
.States of Washington and Oregon, and to all
Nature-loving Americans. It Is possible, as
the writer of this review can attest, to be
fresh from a fortnight's sojourn at the Rlf
felalp, above Zermatt, In face of the Mat
terhorn and the giacial wonders of the
Gorner Grat. acknowledged the climax of
scenic Switzerland, and still bo awed and
thrilled at the mere sight or tne piciurrs
of Mount Tacoma (Rainier) and the three
guardians of the Columbia River Mounts
Hood, Adams and St. Helens Included In
these books. To enjoy the "Playground of
Europe." Americans are helping the Euro
peans to spend JI50.00O.00O a . year. It M
safe to predict that some day Oregon and
Washington will harvest as many millions
from the visitors to their mountain and for
est playground as they now do from their
bountiful fruit crops; and Mr. Williams' pic
tures and descriptions will greatly accelerate
the advent of that date. Hla books are per
haps the strongest argument ever brought
forward In favor of the exhortation. "See
America Too." More than B0 photographer?,
professional and amateur, contributed their
best to make "The Guardians of the Co
lumbia" a pictorial monument to the Pa
cific Coast; and so well are their contribu
tions reproduced that one needs a reading
glass to get all their Impressive details.
The number of these illustrations exceeds
2tx. Many are full page, some in colors. A
glance at them will convince any Alpinist
that we have picturesque peaks, snowfields,
glaciers and rugged Ice formations unsur
passed anywhere; and so cast are the four
mountains named that not only do they
dwarf the Cascade Range near by. but all
along the Oregon and Washington coasts,
at a distance of 50 miles and more, one
may say of them In astonishment, "Thou
art so far and yet so near."
City Heantlful.
No one, surely, can look at the picture
of Portland on page 61. with Mount Hood
towering In the background, without con-ft-ssing
that Oregon's metropolis Is one of
the most superbly placed cities In the world.
The Impression Is strengthened by another
telrphotopraphlc view, on page US. of the
city with another stupendous snow peak.
St Helens, as the background. From the
heights, in the residential district, four more
snow mountains are. visible. Mr. Williams'
text lis devoted chiefly to Hood. St. Helens
and 'Adams. He tells the story of their
career as volcanoes so far as geologists
have laid It bare; he relates the legends the
Indians inventd about them: gives accounts
of flrst ascents; of present facilities for
reaching and climbing them: of automobile
roads and mountain clubs and hotels, and
so on; while Harold Douglas Langllle
contributes a chapter on the vast forests
which hold about one-third of the timber In
our country.
Other leading Eastern newspapers
have found "The Guardians of the
Columbia" a compelling invitation to
Americans to know their own country
better. "Here." says the New .York
World, "are glaciers and grandeurs
more than rivaling. those which thous
ands go to the Alps to see." The New
York Sun says: "In 'Ths Guardians of
the Columbia,' Mr. John H. Williams
continues with his mission of making
knownthe natural beauties of the Pa
cific Northwest, with the help of
superb photographs. The book should
divert tourists to scenes 83 well worth
seeing as the Yosemite."
Itoxton Pnper Prple.
"In this picturesque description of
Western mountain scenery," the
Christian Science Monitor, of Boston,
declares, "the author succeeds admira
bly in making his presentation 'a call
to better appreciation of the splendor
and worth of our own land. Without
any attempt at exaggeration, he pre
sents his subject simply and sym
pathetically, making it an appeal not
only to the lover of magnificent scenery
and Indian legends, but also to the
geologist, the economist and the
climber." - -
The Louisville Courier-Journal in a
column review pays the following en
thusiastic tribute to the author's text:
In John H. Williams', fascinating -new
book of pictures and text about the ma
jestic Western mountains, the author's de
scriptive power rises equal to his task of
painting on a grand scale what the hand
of Ood has so magnificently laid out. But
the. eve and hand of a word-painter are
not his sole possessions. He s.es the geo
logical ages at work, uptitlting herc an
ocean bed. here an island. folding the
earth's crust, molding colossal mountain
barriers, planting the forests. Nor does he
forbear to nole -those earliest human as
sociations which have invested the scene
with the poetry of myth and legend. Fasci
nating are the Indan legends whereby the
bronxe aborigines attempted to account for
the marvels that thrilled their primitive
imagination. . . . Especially interesting
I Is the story of the birth of the great moun.
I tains, told In the author's eloquent and
graphic text.
The Springfield Republican has this
to say about the third section of the
book. The Forests,"-by Harold Doug
las Langllle:
The Interest and value of the book are
much Increased by the chapter which deals
with the forests vividly and yet with sci
entific accuracy of detail. The forests of
Oregon and Washington are second only as
natural wonders to the Sequoyas of Cali
fornia, and in the depth of the Northern
forests there arc revelations of natural
beauty which even the big trees of Cali
fornia may not rival. In Washington and
Oregon together there Is estimated to be no
less than a third of the standing merchant
able timber In the entire country, a state
ment esflly to be believed as one looks at
the remarkable photographs here, which
.how beside the puny rigures of the lumber
men the Immense -.trunks of the various
species. It may be doubted whether the
forests of the Northern I'aclfic, Slates have
ever been pictured between the covers of
a book In the manner approaching the excel
lence of the present volume.

even provided Morris with spending
money. - ,

standing her husband Is a big, strong
man, he had not worked more than
five or six days a year during tho past
six years. She told the court that 30
