On a recent Monday afternoon, says
the Burns News, while C. w. Comegys
and folks were ln the house on the
Wagontire ranch during a thunder
shower, the lightning struck the stove
pipe on the root, followed the pipe Into
the room, melting and breaking the
beating stove until one could not tell
what it was, then tearing up the floor
adjacent to the stove spent its force

HOSE persons who think that they
have "done" Mount Hood by. the
mere climbing of it, have in no
way exhausted the scenic possibilities
of Oregon's most famous peak. This
is the opinion of Thomas Henry Boyd, a
young attorney of this city, and the son
of the pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church. Mr. Boyd, accompanied by Colin
LlvinK3tone. Alan Kussel and Robert
Livingstone. Jr.. of this city, and Rob
ert M. Adams, of Chicago, recently re
turned from a trip that Included
climb to the top of Hood from Govern
ment Camp and the descent to Cloud
Cap. Inn the ume cay and a circuit
Of the mountain to Government camp
along the proposed route of the new
highway.
This trip is considered unusual be
cause of the fact that the entire trip
occuDied only two days and was taken
over a trail that was unknown to the
hikers."
Leaving this city by automobile, the
party arrived at Government Camp five
hours later, and immediately left for
the snow line to prepare for the morn-
ng's climb. Two hours were consumed
n the climb to the snow line, and after
a three hours' nap the four young men
started for the summit. An easy climb
was reported owing to the fact that no
new snow had fallen, ami upon reach
ing the top they passed three "delight
ful" hours -with Elijah Coalman, the
ranger in control of the .station on the
summit. .
70-Mile Wind Lashes Summit.
Mr. Boyd "reported that there was a
70-mile gale blowing on top, but in
side the specially constructed tent of
Mr. Coalman they forgot the breeze
when they discovered that Mr. Coalman
was frying a steak on a gasoline stove.
This fact and the presence of a tele
phone that offered outside communica-
tion modernized almost
much.
thought Mr. Boyd Mount Hood's sum
mit. After three hours with Mr. Coalman,
the party began the descent to Cloud
Cap Inn. A number of Easterners, who
had climbed from the north side, ac
companied the four "hikers" and all
reached the Inn in time for dinner.
Early the next morning, Mr. Boyd
and his companions started from Cloud
Cap Inn for Government Camp over the
new forest rangers' trail that was fol
lowed by T. Warren Allen, of the United
States Forestry office, and his party
that covered it on horseback to deter
mine the possible location of the new
highway.
Mr. Boyd's party went from Cloud
Cap Inn to Cooper's spur and kept at
the foot of the glaciers, crossing many
hogbacks and streams. When the mem
bers of the, party came in view of
Steel's Cliff they left the open country
and struck Into the timber. Mr. Boyd
reported' that some of the timber In
this region is unusual and that game
of all kinds seems to be plentiful.
View Is Declared Remarkable.
Soon after reaching the timber they
crossed a long hogback known as Ar
nold Spur, and there found a large herd
of sheep grazing, although their herder
was not in sight. According to Mr.
Boyd, the view from Arnold spur is one
of the most inspiring from any angle,
and it appears similar to Shasta from
the south or Rainer'as seen from Ad
ams. Mr. Boyd said that the .view of
the mountain from this point was re
markable because of the impression of
its size was so vivid.
From Arnold sp'jr. the party took the
ranger trail and followed it to its junc
tion with the old Barlow road that is
now nothing but a trail because of its
long disuse. One of the most inter
esting and instructive of the places
along the trail is the old bed of the
White River glacier, reported Mr. Boyd.
"Where the trail crosses the bed is a
mile wide and presents an interesting
study for the physical geography stu
dent. ' The bed is void of vegetation,
the old lateral morains are easily
picked out and the terminal morain
shows the effects of centuries of river
wear and ice gouging.
"The sides of these morains are heav
ily timbered and with the mountain in
the background the picture is beyond
description." In the opinion of the
members of Mr. Boyd's party the White
River glacial bed will present the most
difficulty that the engineers will en
counter in the building of the highway.
From tbo White itlver the trail winds
through Bennet's Pass to the old Bar
low road. -.
Mr. Boyd's party made the trip from
Cloud Cap Inn to Government Camp in
eight hours and he says that the trail
is easily traced, especially if taken from
the Government Camp end. All the
members of the party were enthusiastic
over the scenic possibilities of the new
highway and declared that there would
be few places in this or any other coun
try that would of fer more varied scenic
wonders than the new link around the.
base of the mountain.

Austin Moody, a farmer of Delight
Valley near Saginaw, has a thorough
bred O. L C sow with. a. litter of 1
pigs, . seven females and six males,
which is proving a big money-maker to
its owner, according to an item In the
Cottage Grove, Sentinel. Mr. Moody says
he is selling the female pigs very readi
ly at $5 'each and says he wishes he
had about 100 more as- he could get
rid of about that many. .The . litter
originally contained 14 pigs, but one of
tne pigs died about the second day and

Miss Keith 1 Van , Winkle,' daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. .Van Winkle, of
this . city, has been elected to teach
school at cott's Mills next year, says
the Albany Herald. An unusual co
incidence in this connection - is that
she will teach her first term of school
at. the same place where' her mother
taught her first term of school. -Mrs.
Van Wlnklo was. a former. 611-
verton girl and after completing her
education was elected to teach school
at Scott's Mills although the place was
not as thickly populated then as it is
now nor were the school houses ot
such . modern.1 construction.
Miss Keith has just graduated from
Willamette University and was im
mediately selected by the school board
at Scott's Mills for ono of the teachers
in the school there.
M. D. Zwight, of Glendale, has had
