BY CHARLKS K. WARREN.
IKE all mountains. Larch is a
never-ending surprise. One may
plan to one's own satisfaction just
what kind of weather the old dome is
going to serve and whether it will be
served hot or cold. One may telephone
to the logging camps and consult thej
weather bureau and try. any and all
methods of prognostication, but in the
end he will find that the only certainty
about mountain weather is that stated
so tersely abojt women by "Chimmle
Fadden that you "never know what
a woman's going to do till after it don't
do you no good to know."
As seen from Portland. Larch Moun
tain Is one of the most unobtruxive
objects on the landscape. Apparently
it slopes gently in all directions and
it has nothing about it to attract at-
ention to its he. .t or importance as
center of observation or of weather
condition. Kvfn the cltmb of 410O feet 1
is gradual, except for a few steep
places which can be measured in hun
dreds of feet and the full significance
of the mountain breaks upon one sud
denly. Just as we sometimes discover
striking charms In a person, who, at
first acquaintance, seemed dull and un
attractive. The five of us, Willis W. Ross, Wal
ter Boychuck, Harry C. Libby, Harry
M. Krebs and myself, wre the survivors
of a large party of Mazamas who had
planned the trip to Larch for the last
Sunday of 1918. All the girls and
most of the men had their enthusiasm
dampened by the rain of Saturday and
we five were much disappointed at
learning of this fact when we met at
the 11 o'clock train, Saturday night.
We quickly decided not to worry about
the others, but to go ahead and have a
good hike, anyway.
We reached Multnomah Falls to find
the weather had cleared. We left at
15:15 A. M., Sunday, and went up to
ward the falls, across the Benson
bridge and along the switch-back trail.
We passed through several showers,
but mostly the midnight hours were
clear. We found much ice across the
trail, which necessitated care, as the
slope down toward the creek is steep
in some places. The big falls and the
lesser ones up the creek were all boom
ing- loudly, owing: to the recent rain.
Fresh Snow Encountered.
About two and a half miles up we
found snow and three miles from Mult
nomah the party began to "break
trail" through fresh snow. As we
crossed the creek the last time and
began the long climb up along the
west side of the canyon, trail breaking
became harder and we took turns, the
lead man dropping to the rear after
bucking the snow for a quarter of a
mile or so. In this way, we plunged
along to the spring at 3000 feet, which
is the last water and ts about one
and a Quarter miles from the summit
cabin.
We did not stop long at the spring,
for it was getting quite cold and there
Is no shelter there. One of the most
important things that could be done
next Summer, by the way, is to ar
range for a shelter at this point.
Shortly after leaving the spring we
began to feel the full force of a driv
ing snow storm which had enveloped
the upper portion of Larch. The cold
increased and the snow got deeper. By
the time we reached the last steep pull
we were all glad to see the familiar
landmarks that indicated our ap
proach to shelter. We picked up some
dry branches that stuck out through
the snow and took them with us for
firewood.
Boychuck had brought some small
pitch sticks and with these the fire was
started from matches without any de
lay. We soon had the sheet iron stove
in the cabin roaring and were warm
in spite of the fact that some vandal
specimens of humanity had burned the
door, the wood frame of a window and
one short top log from the north wall,
Later we covered one of these openings
with fir boughs, banked with snow,
Our indignation at this violation of
a mountain shelter by its former bene
ficiaries was the only unpleasant fea
ture of our trip. How human beings
could commit such an act, with wood
a few hundred feet away, is hard to
understand, and even if some extremity
made it seem to them justifiable, how
could anyone fail to make good the
damage, afterward? These mountain
shelters should be held inviolate, for
their destruction might easily cause In
tense suffering or loss of life to people
seeking their shelter.
we went out and gathered more
wood, and cooked breakfast, which we
ate with true mountain appetites.
Scene la Enchanting.
As day broke, the snow storm con
tinued. It was cold, dry snow, and as
the rain of Saturday cooled on the
branches, the snow formed a white,
powdery coating on each branchlet and
needle, so the trees were rarely beauti
ful.
We relaxed and rested awhile. About
10 o'clock the clouds shifted and the
sun shone through. We hurried out to
the pinnacle and were rewarded with
one of the two perfect views which
I have seen from there during the past
five years.
St. Helens and Rainier showed up their
peaks, intermittently, th.ough chang
ing clouds; Mount Adams stood out,
clear and white; Mount Hood, 20 miles
away, was almost dark blue in the com
bination of light and shade and as we
gaz. ' white streak of sulphur
smoke curled upward from the crater
and drifted off to the south. Before
we could more than grasp the reality
of this enchanting scene, the clouds en
veloped us and we were left alone with
our white trees and frosted crags.
After a hearty lunch we left at 12.
returning via the Multnomah trail and
Benson Park to Wahkeena Falls.
Multnomah Creek, up to about two
miles above the big falls, is particularly
attractive just now, for its combines the
green moss and ferns with ice fringes
along the banks and around the various
falls, over which the creek plunges on
its way to the big drop.
The return to Portland on the 4:15
train completed one of the finest of J
many fine Mazama outings.

Mme. Schumann-Heink arrived in
New Tork from Chicago durincr the
last days of the liberty loan and with
haraeteristic patriotism offered her
services at once for the closing days
f the drive. Realizing the great per
sonal popularity of "Mother" Schumann
Heink, besides her drawing power as
singer, the liberty loan committee
immediately took advantage of this of
fer and enrolled her for the two most
important places in the city the Sub
Treasury steps and the Little Theater
on the steps of the Public Library.
On Friday at the Sub-Treasury,
where she shared the programme with
Governor Whitman, of New Yolk; Gov
ernor Edee, of New Jersey; ex-Ambassador
Gerard and Rabbi Stephen
Wise, Mme. Schumann Heink thrilled
th4 great crowd with her wonderful
rendition of "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner" and "When the Boys Come Home."
On Saturday, the last day of the drive,
Schumann Heink started early and fin- .
iwhed late and the result was over
JL'00,000 worth of bonds credited to her
personal sal for that day.
