Winter Snow 25 Feet at Crater Rim Just how deep the snow Is in Cra ter Lake park and how deep it was this winter, is shown by a "snowj marker," a tall pole erected near the I engineer's office near the lake rim. j Crossbars, with dates and figures, have been placed on this pole show- j ing the winter snow depth. This! winter the depth was greater than) ever before. The highest snow level I is shown to have been more than 25 feet. Though cars can now get all the way up the road to the lake, there Is still much snow on the highway. The bigger drifts are under the hemlocks, where the sun does not strike direct ly, through which narrow passages have been cut. Many of the big drifts will not melt this summer. The entire park is snow covered, making the days cool and the nights too cold for comfort for campers. Most of the tourists who visit the lake go down to some of the warmer camps on the lower altitudes, Union creek being a favored place. The record of visitors kept at headquarters camp, in the park, show that less than one-fourth the number of cars entered the park during July than during the same month last year. It Is believed that last year's record of over 11,000 vis itors will not be reached this season. Tonight is Night Of Band Dance Tonight at the Bungalow will be staged the biggest dance of the sum mer, when (for the financial outlay of 50 cents for the entire evening, or 10 cents a dance) a big crowd will trip the light fantastic and help the band boys in their efforts toward raising a fund for the purchase of a new horn. Dancing begins at 9 o'clock, with a five-piece orchestra. Everyone is urged to come. Will Ask Bids For New Sewer At the Tuesday evening council meeting the recorder was authorized to prepare specifications and ask for bids tor the construction of the sewer which is to be built in the district north of the railroad track and be tween Laurel and Hilman streets.

Hart, greatest of west ern actors, comes to the Vining screen Thursday night (tonight) In "The Aryan." Hart plays the part of a rugged man of the desert, who, having been fleeced of his fortune by "the degraded women of a lawless town, turns against the feminine sex. He be comes the ruler of renegades in a self-built mining camp, utterly de spising women for ensuing years, un til he Is awakened to the code of his race by a gentle, fearless girl, who trusts him. "The Aryan" was produced, almost In its entirety, on the sands of the Mojave Desert in California, where the blistering sun Is almost unbear able. For three weeks Hart and his company camped on this Darren tract, filming the story., Other scenes were made in the mountains of Inceville. Friday. "The Heart of Paula," which will be shown at the Vining Theatre Fri day night, combines a number of phases which should make it one of the biggest attractions of the sum mer for Ashland movie fans. The play is wonderful in its photography, setting and plot. The scenes are laid in Mexico, and a rare insight given into Mexican life as It is today. Leon ore Ulrlch, of "Bird of Paradise" fame, stars in the play. The atmosphere of warm, flower scented nights, of tinkling music, of deeds of daring to win a lady's glance, scenes of intense hate and strong pas sion, are all blended in a fascination that entrances. This story of the burning love of a Spanish maid for a handsome Ameri can, stars Leonore Ulrlch, who is en tranclngly beautiful as the high-born Castillan made poor by the unsettled times. An added attraction for Friday will be the first of the series of Sellg athletic feature series, this feature showing all the famous boxers In ac tion. Saturday. Saturday night's offerings at the Vining round out the week with fea tures which equal if not excel the previous attractions. "Green Stock ings," a unique Vltagraph feature, will present something new in the line of motion picture attractions. The plot is so refreshingly original and spicy that it is sure to "get across" better than any of the old stereotyped plots which have been hashed and rehashed and offered with the guarantee of a star's nanv. The story Is but, then, it Is such an entertaining thing that it will not do to spoil your enjoyment by telling it before hand. With "Green Stockings" comes an other unusual novelty entitled "Wild Beasts at Large." This is a two-reel comedy which is a scream. BELLEVIEW ITEMS.

The past month has been one of the most equitable in the history of weather observations in Ashland. August is starting out in a like manner and ideal days and nights are following one after the other. While the east has suffered from a hot wave and Portland ball games have been post poned day after day because of rain, the weather here has been delightful, with Just enough rain to suit the farmers without spoiling the picnics. During the month there were but four days, which were entered as cloudy in Co-operative Observer Louis Dodge's report. One and twenty-four hundredths inches of Tain fell, which was enough to give the crops a big impetus without ruin ing the hay completely. The thermometer registered above 90 degrees on only one day, the 11th. when 93 was recorded. For the rest j of the month it ranged along with a! maximum never above 87 and aver aging about 80 degrees. The mini mum temperature was 40 on the 5th, but the fact that every night was cool is evident from the average minimum of 47 and the fact that the highest minimum was 59. Anyone who can not sleep when the night tempera ture is below 60, needs fixing. One remarkable fact was that the prevailing wind was northwest on every day of the month.
