Birds and animal pets which for years have brought Joy to the hearts of literally thousands upon thousands of men, women and children will be sold at auction at the zoo on that day. Among the zoo creatures which are slated to be sold are 12 elk, 6 Japanese deer, 3 native deer. 4 bears, 2 coyotes, 3 monkeys 100 guinea pigs 100 canaries and 18 ducks. For a while It looked as though the big lion would be among the missing after the auction but it was finally de termined not to sell him, so the public will find him at his usual stampink grounds. The reason for the sale is that the quarters are cramped and the funds for support of the feature are not ade quate, hence to economize and at the same time make things more comfort able for whatever is left in the park the City Council ordered the sale.

BEAUTIES OF CASGADIA RIVAL ' FAMOUS PLACES OF EUROPE Emil Enna Accompanies Charles South, Violinist-Mountaineer, on Trip to Cascades and Recounts Joys of Ideal Vacation Passed in Mountains. and no doubt would bo enthusiastic .about preserving the wonderful for ests. If not, they have no business in the woods. "We met a party of state road com missioners who were inspecting a route Ufor a highway through Santiam Pass, l am sure such a road would be of vast benefit to Oregon. I am going to boost for it. for that is the least I can do in the way of compensation for the de lightful time I had. BY EM II ENNA. THE proposal of a mountain trip In Oregon, just a few miles from Portland, my home city, struck me as unique, but the invitation coming from Charles South, violinist, and well known as a mountaineer both at home and abroad, carried with it in ducements not at all commonplace. So one sunny day in early July we start ed for a beautiful place called Cas-, cadia, 30 miles from Lebanon, and made the beginning of a hunting and fishing trip in the Cascade Mountains. Our equipment consisted of & pack horse, two well-filled El Forkasses, Bleeping bags and necessities in gen eral for camp life, not forgetting our kodaks. Our travel took us directly into the heart of the Cascade Moun tains. We traveled leisurely, as it was our aim not to miss even the smallest of nature's beauties. Those who have tra'eled in other countries often boast of foreign wonders, forgetting oar home attractions, so it gives me pleas ure to add that the mountain scenery In this section is unsurpassed in any part of the world. Mountain climbing is sometimes haz ardous and tiring, but the climber is well repaid when the summit of several thousand feet is reached. The trip took us from Cascadia along the San tiam River to the foothills of the ev-cn-Mile Mountains, continuing up these mountains to the summit, an altitude of 4500 feet. We made camp a short dis tance below the summit in what is called Indian or Tombstone Prairie, a tombstone having been erected there to the memory of a person who rtiet death by accident. On the first part of our trip we saw various mountain peaks, many covered with snow, the most interesting being "Nigger Baby Rock," the rormation of the peak being similar to a negro baby doll. Beauty Is I'nequaled. The Indian Prairie has an unequaled beauty. It can well be compared with a magnificent amphitheater, and was in early days the Summer playground of the Indians. A few feet back of camp we had the pleasure of snowballing after our supper. Continuing on the following day through this wonderful forest we reached' Fish Lake about noon. Fish Ike is a radiating point for many side trips, such as "Clear Lake," one of the most beautiful spots in the state, which derives its name from the clearness of the water. You can readily distinguish srtlcles on the bottom at a depth of 80 or 40 feet. It is a peculiar and an almost uncanny feeling to see the hadow of your own boat at the bot tom. At this place you have a beauti ful view of the Three Bisters Mountain nd the head of the Mackenzie River. Among the other interesting things you find is a spring coming out -of the lava, the water drifting through what la called perpetual ice. making it two degrees cooler than freezing temper ature. Other side trips from Fish Lake are to Sand. Crescent and Carpenter Moan tain or following the Big Meadow trail to Marion Lake and to Detroit and lso Lava Lake. At Lava Lake vou Sret a beautiful sight of Mount Jeffer on, Three-Finger Jack and Crescent Mountain. At Fish Lake you have a beautiful view of Sand Mountain and the ragged edges of the peak of Mount Washington. Fish are found In abundance on the n-hole trip. Game also is plentiful. In the deer season it must be a wonderful place for bunting .and. as I am con templating a hunting trip soon, I shall later relate you the trip. VentlonIst Help With Harvest. Returning to Cascadia we made our way up to the W. T. Nichols ranch at Moss Butte, where we passed a few delightful days. Mr. Xichols is a well known musician of Linn County who spends part of his time on his ranch. Before returning to the city we spent a couple -of days assisting with the harvesting by raking, bundling and shocking. The novelty of the beautiful scenery was wonderful, but the novelty of the outdoor sleeping appealed to us more. The United States Government has in many places erected camps with little tables and fireplaces. The Forestry Service also allows you to use its tele phone wires, which are strung all through the mountains. All that is asked is that you be careful with fires. Anyone who takes a trip like we had could think of nothing but precaution ENTRIES TO CLOSE EARLY Cattle Exhibited at Grcshara Fair Must Be Tuberculin-Tesl'ed. GRESHAM, Or., Aug. 18. In con formity with the other fairs the Mult nomah County Fair will close its live stock entries on September 2. 10 days before the fair commences. Heretofore the livestock entries have not been closed until the opening day of the fair. It is expected that some confusion may be caused by the change this year, but after this year none is looked for. All cattle for exhibition will haVe to have -a certificate showing that they have been tested for tuberculosis, and any not having a certificate will be barred from the barns. A state law alo requires exhibition cattle to be tuberculin-tested now. fi. r'P -Till Si. i Brass Beds Reduced We show the largest stock of fine brass beds in the city.

Just to keep in season, the Willis O. West Musical Extravaganza Com pany will present this week at the Oaks a breezy seaside playlet of music and mirth under the title, "The Water Nymph."

West when he gets down to the beach In such a company of mermaids as the Ginger Girls. AIbo you can Imagine what a lot of fon the members of this cr,wd of funsters get out of the situations that develop.

In addition to these two free attrac tions, the park has placed some new features around on the grounds, which have been visited by great numbers. The bathing pool In the river is more popular than ever because of the ex cellent late-season conditions at this place. RURAL SCHOOLS POPULAR Many of 2 00 Normal Graduates - Will Teacli in Country.
