KcprescntatiTe of Portland's Cham
ber of Commerce Sees Visions of
, Great Summer Resort Around
, , Extinct Volcano.
Sent to Crater Lake as the repre
sentative of tne bureau of publicity
and conventions of the Chamber of
Commerce and instructed to report
actual conditions as they would be en
countered by tourists. Secretary Mark
Woodruff yesterday presented a pre
liminary report. In it Mr. Woodruff
tees visions of a great Summer resort
around the rim of the extinct volcano,
in the center of which lies the lake
of marvelous beauty and charm.
Mr. Wodruff also says that Califor
Tiians have beaten him to the vision,
and that unless Oregonians get imme
diately busy the lake will be operated
more as. an asset of California than
of Oregon.
The report points out that two Cal
ifornians are visiting the lake to one
Oregonian. and that Californians are
being routed to Crater Lake as their
farthest northern point of visit.
Lake Hat Marvelous Henuty.
"Of the marvelous beauty of Crater
Lake, its spooky atmosphere, its deep
blue coloring, there is no necessity for
me to report." said Mr. Wodruff. "?o
visitor has ever dared to dispute its
standing as the third sister in the
trinity of which the Grand Canyon and
Yellowstone Park are the other parts.
"But the practice of most visitor's
has been to dash, up to the rim of
the crater, peek over at the blue
waters, take one squint at the variegat
ed walls and then . crank up . for the
. trip out.
"The Lodge at the lake should -not
be confused with ideas of an elabo
rate hotel of the Summer resort va
riety. ' -No claim is made that the
Lodge Is in that class. The Lodge is
a building of stone and wood, con
taining 54 rooms, a large lounging
room with a big fireplace, a good
dining-room and with bathrooms avail
able. Hot and cold water is piped to
ome of the rooms. Every visitor can
depend upon a good place to sleep and
eubstantial food.
lload a m "Whole In Good.
' "The road between. Medford and the
lake is good as a whole. A. 15-mile
section about the center of the dis
tance is rough, but not by any means
Impassable. This bad road lies along
the first 10 miles west of Prospect
and five miles east of that place. East
of Prospect the road enters the Crater
National Forest and I have no hesita
tion in saying that from there in to
the lake it is a wonderful trip. The
road winds through a forest of big
trees, many of them eight or nine feet
in diameter, while at the right tht
canyon of the Rogue River gets deeper
and more rugged as the road reaches
for the higher altitudes.
"Around the rim of the crater fhe
Government is building one of ' the
finest drives in the world. The
road will circumscribe the crater, giv-ine-
views of the lake at numerous
nnint
"it i Tiow possible for the autoist
to drive around the larger portion of
the lake. The road gives tremendous
views of the surrounding country. Be
ing over 7000 feet high and above most
of the mountains of the range
"The Government is also building a
new trail between the hotel and the
water of the lake. Next ; ear a garage
will be erected at the rim by Lessee
A L. Parkhurst. and the Government
will put in a plant that win supply
water for all purposes. it wiu
pumped from Anna Spring."

SIMPLICITY- IN TAILORING
THE TREND FOR FALL
1918.
Ray Barkhurst, Portland's Leading
Tailor, as Usual, Ahead of the
- Times, ' Adopts .Advance Fashions
for This Fall.
Here is another case in which Ore
gon home industry is enabled to "nose
out" Eastern competition. :
It has been decreed by designers of
men's fashions in Chicago, the cloth
ing center of America, that simplicity
will be the keynote in styles for
Spring, 1918. -
Cuffs on coat sleeves and trousers
have been tabooed. "Gingerbread"
flaps have been censured. Even belts,
pleats, tucks and patch pockets will
be very scarce but not until Spring,
1918, because it takes time for large
tailoring establishments to place their
new styles and systems into effect.
Ray Barkhurst, Portland's leading
tailor, however, is ready to give you
any of the Spring, 1918, styles right
now in your suit for this coming Fall.
His shop, though the largest in the
Pacific Northwest, is not too large for
utility. If you specify some one par
ticular fashion, no matter what it is, '
Ray is able to give it to you now. You
don't have to wait until 1918 for it.
Moral Patronize home industry
and be ahead of the times.
The Millionaire Might Take a
Chance on Dressing Poorly
but the man who wants to "arrive"
can't afford to be careless about his
appearance. - If you'll leave your
clothes problem to Ray Barkhurst,
Portland's leading tailor, hell solve it
by making clothes that give you char
acter,, service and that pleasing tinge
of being in absolute fashion without
charging you a big price. Only $22 up.
'Bill" B: . . .y Wore a Smile
and no wonder a new suit just- re
ceived from Ray Barkhurst's tailor
shop, built to order on Ray's princi
ples of a personal fit, has completely
changed his view of life. He now
goes about with an air of. confidence
that he never had before, and he feels
like meeting people. Good clothes
make the mind feel at ease, as well as
the body. .. .

First Papers filed by I. re . Helfond, '
Who Say. He Repents First Ef
fort to Avoid Army Doty.
An awakened conscience will give
the new American Army one more re
cruit.
This was made certain yesterday
when Lee Helfond, 22-year-old subject
of Russia, took out his first citizenship
papers and gave formal notice tha't he
would withdraw his claims for exemp
tion which had been filed several days
ago with a loal examining board.
Helfond s case was drawn to tne at
tention of county and Federal officials
when he put in a claim for exemption
from Army duty on the ground of be
ing an alien. . At that time it was
brought to light that he had previously
made known his desire to become an
American citizen, but when he learned
that he would be subject to the draft
by taking out his first papers, he
turned back his citizenship blanks unsigned.
Three, days of retrospection, however.
convinced the young Russian that he
had acted too hastily. He was a con
trite young man who appeared at the
naturalization bureau yesterday and
eagerly signed the paper which starts
him .on his road t'o American citizen
ship.
"I am mighty sorry that I did not do
this at first," he told the clerk, "and
I am ready for any duty that my coun
try may ask of me. I am going to take
steps at once to withdraw my claims
for exemption and will gladly Join the
Army and do my part in this war."
