or
When an early
North American
Indian wished to
conveyhis
thoughts to an
other by meam
of the w r. I t t e n
language. He
found that his
writing methods
were very labori-
' out;, and did not permit of much detail
" : or fullness. Consequently, in his pic
torlal writing, he selected the most
"prominent or important features of
his subject for representation, and leit
" details to be supplied by the reader's
Imagination.
For example, the figure below
was once carved In the bark of a tree
en the shore of a river.. The first
figure Is a conoe, anj denotes that ttij
; men are fishermen. The second, a
, : man with extended arms, signifies
empty handedness" or "nothing." The
third, with hand raised to mouth,
signifies "to eat." The last is a wig
wam. The message can easily be
translated: "Fishermen have nothing
to eat in the wigwam"; or less literal
ly, "We fishermen are starving. Our
- supply of provisions is cxhnusted."
'- There is one particular locality in
"what is now western Oregon that the
Indians frequently found occasion to
mention or describe in their writings.
Many of them made an annual pil
grimage to this locality, and a writ
ten description of it was necessary
as a message to leave at their villages
to show Where they had gone, to place
at various points along the way as
guide posts, or to send to friends as
an invitation to join themtn the trip..
They selected the most impressive
features of the locality, drew a char
after to represent each and assembled
these characters. Into the picture
Mown In the heading of this article.
The character at the top with the
three points represents the Three Sis
ters, the trio of adjoining snow capped
- mountain DeakH that tower over the
locality. The second represents a tree
' and signifies that the locality has for
, ests that attract attention. The-third
' represents a turbulent stream of water.
fThe fourth is a fish. If one Indian
received one of these pictures from an
t other he undoubtedly read It as fol-
lows: "We are going to make a trip
.! to the country with the three great
: mountains, fine forests, mighty river
i and good fishing. Come with us."
j Description Easily Recognised.
- -No one familiar with Oregon's great
outdoor sport regions would fail to
; recognize in the Indian description the
Vallev of the McKenxle river, ".for the
features represented are undoubtedly
4 it distinguishing characteristics.
This magnificent valley w4ilch the
white man adopted as his pleasure
I ground after the days of the Indian
, had passed lies in the Cascade moun
tains of the western Oregon. The Mc.
Kenxle river, which drains the valley,
, has its source in the glaciers and snow
fields of the Three Sisters and other
peaks on the summit of the Cascades,
and after tumbling over the rapids and
; plunging over the falls with an lnces
sant roar for 60 miles, it smooths out
Into a deep, clear, idling stream, which
. It maintains for 20 miles and then
empties into the Willamette river near
: Eugene.
The automobile road through the val
ley starts from Eugene, parallels, the
: ' McKenzie river almost to its source
; and then crosses the crest of the Cas
cades Into central Oregon. At Eugene
'the road joins the Pacific highway,
that important thoroughfare which

highway running easterly from Port
land into Idaho. The fact that the
number of good roads across the sum
mit of .the Cascade mountains is ex
tremely'' limited makes the McKenzie
highwayman important link In the road
system of the west and this feature,
combined with the attractions of the
McKenrle valley, give this region a
large tourist population from distant
states.
But by far the greater number of
the thousands who visit the valley
annually, are from Oregon cities, and
are people well acquainted with the
valley, who return again and again to
spend their outings In the locality of
fering so many recreational features.
Valley Becomes XTarrower.
Leaving Eugene ty automobile, the
wide, level plains flanking the lower
section of the McKenzie river are en
tered and are traveled for 20 miles
through a prosperous farming, dairy
ing and fruit growing community.
Farther along the valley gradually re
duces in width and the mountains on
either side increase in height. At 23
miles distance the valley becomes so
restricted that only long, narrow
"shoe-string" ranches are found, the
river is a series of noisy rapids, and
deep pools, and the mountain scenery
begins to be interesting. ' At 30 miles
from Eugene, is located the McKenzie
state fish hatchery, a most interest
ing state activity.
Screen dams are thrown across the
river and thousands of salmon on their
way from the Pacific ocean to the
spawning beds at the headwaters of
the river, are trapped during the sum
mer and early fall.
To one unfamiliar wtth salmon, ex
cept as served on the table, the sight
of hundreds of these large, strong
fish disporting themselves in the wa
ter and leaping into the air Is not
soon to be forgotten. The eggs are
taken from these fish in the fall and
artificially hatched.
The young salmon are fed and
cared for until one year old and then
turned loose In the McKenzie river.
I Waning in the MceKnUe river is' all
' ' ' ' "'
Millions of these young salmon are
raised here to- replenish the commer
cial fisheries of the Pacific north
west. Rainbow trout are raised as a side
issue but in large ' numbers, so that
sport as well as commercial fishing
benefits from the hatchery. Sixty
thou nd young rainbows were placed
in the McKenzie river and its tribu
taries last fall.
Continuing eastward from the fislt
hatchery the highway parallels and Is
adjacent to the river, giving a con
stantly changing and magnllicent view
of river and mountain scenery; densely
forested mountains rise abruptly front
the water's edge for two and three
thousand feet.
Numerous pretty summer homes on
the river banks and fishing parties ir.
boats lying idly on the pools or stren-
ously shooting the rapids add to the
Interesting sights of the Journey.
At 45 miles from Eugene, Blue river.
a very picturesque spot, is reached.
The village takes its name from a
tributary entering' the McKenzie river
at this point. The Blue river mining
district which bids fair to have a goo J
gold output when cheaper transports
tion is available lies a few miles to
the north of the highway at this point.
Blue rfver is the "head of tide" so far
as boat fishing is concerned on the
McKenzie. Above this point the river
is too wild and treacherous for even
the most Intrepid boatman
. The practice in boat fishing is to
nire boat and boatman at Blue river
or points farther down stream and
drift with the current, no effort be
ing made to row upstream.
Near the mouth of the river the
boat is taken from the water and re
turned to Its up-river station on a
two wheeled cart trailed behind aa
automobile.
Trout Friadpal Game visa,
Dolly Varden and Rainbow trout are
the principal game fish on the Mc
Kenzie. Everyone who has the least
Interest in fishing as a sport has heard
of the gaminess of these .two species
of trout. Both attain a large size and
never submit to being landed without
a battle.
At Blue river as at many other
points is the McKenxle valley, a hotel
provides good accommodations. .
Five miles above Blue river is the
'Cascade national forest, one of the
largest and most Important of tffe
federal owned timbered areas, designed
to prepetuate tne country's timber sup
ply and to provide outing grounds for
the people. The entrance to the forest!
is marked with a large shield bearing
a tree, the official seal of the United
States forest service, suspended over
the highway..
This particular forest contains
1,000,000 acres and is Important from
the fact that it contains the enor
mous stand of 20,000.000,000 feet of
merchantable timber and offers un
usual recreational features. .The mag
nificent firs along the highway are
characteristic of those covering thou
sands of acres of Uncle Sam's wood
lot.

The next point reached in the val

of the northern section of the Cas
cadft forest and the center of the out
ing? region. It is the headquarters of

all of the improvements which they
have made to develop the country and

Chicago, Feb. 24. (U. P.) Dissem

in Chicago and other portions of Illi
nois, under certain limitations, is legal.
Attorney General Brundage gave this
as his private opinion today to Ruth W.
Porter, secretary of the citizens com

'Mothers may be advised of methods
of birth control," the attorney general
said, "in cases where the bearing of
children would endanger the life of
either mother or child, or both. How
ever, unless the condition of the moth-
er warrants giving such advice it
would be a violation of the law."
It is anticipated that a "birth con

The following letter in regard to the

In the district to be assessed:
Port rand. Or., Feb. 24. 117. J
To the Editor of The Journal':
More than a hundred home owners
of the Rose City Park district have
Joined in a remonstrance against the
construction of tthe proposed viaduct
at East Thirty-seventh and Sandy
boulevard, and have petitioned the
commissioners' to refrain from pro
ceeding with the Improvement. If the
commissioners want to perform a gen
uine service they will heed the petition
of these home owners.
When t!he people voted to give the
commissioners power to eliminate
grade crossings. It was with the ex
pectations that the most dangerous
crossings would be first eliminated.
When the crossing at East Thirty
seventh and Sandy boulevard was se
lected for elimination and without
considering other grade crossings far
more dangerous the desires of the peo
ple were disregarded. Relatively the
crossing at East Thirty-seventh street
is the least dangerous of any in the
city. The crossing at East Morrison
and Water streets, for Instance, is
far more dangerous owing to heavier
traffic of trains and streetcars over

clear the tracks. By so doing a safe

When we consider that there are 3793

seem that the owners should not be

for an Improvement that is utterly un
necessary and of no benefit to the
home owners of that district.
Tax Burden Heavy.
Financial conditions are not such as
to Justify large expenditures for im
provements of doubtful merit. Dunns
1910 and 111. when times were good,
property owners were loaded down
with improvement assessments with
out complaint, bat things have chang

city so heavily assessed for improve
ments that no one would accept them
as a gift and undertake to pay the as
sessments. Then why impose addition
al assessments 7 Let the little-home
owner be given an opportunity to pay
for improvements already made before
undertaking new ones that are not nec
essary, and I submit that the construc
tion of a viaduct at East Thirty-seventh
street and Sandy boulevard is ill
advised, unnecessary and extravagant
at this time. . ,
Says Crossing' Wot Dangerous.
There Is a derail in the streetcar
tracks on either side of the railroad
crossing. There is but a single rail
road track, and only passenger trains
us it, as all freight trains t.re routeu
by way of East St. Johns. There is a
clear view of the railroad for five
blocks in either direction from tin
crossing. If there is any considerable
demand for this viaduct it comes frtin
other than a popular source, or from
joyriders, and they can avoid any dan
ger that might be due to carelessness

Search fox Solution to ruxzle.
If you walked into the police sta
tion any time last week and saw
lot of policemen with their tongues In
their cheeks and pencils, grasped tight
in hands, working studiously over an
intricate design on a paper, you prob-
aDiy thought they were all cramming
to pass a civil service exam.
The chances are that you waited at
the desk several minutes for service.
and were then growled at in a forbid
ding manner. The policeman probably -answered
you as quickly as possible -or
not at all, then eagerly returned to ':
his task.
But the police are not working at
this thing because they have to. The
truth Is that some fiend slipped the
poor bluecoats a puzzle, so amazingly
difficult of solution that the questions
of how old is Anne and who hit Billy
r-atterson are like A B Ci in compari
son.
Janitors are working overtime carry
ing away waste paper baskets contain
ing discarded attempts at solution and
the city is threatened with a famine
in blank paper as a result of the un
tiring efforts of the 2(0 patrolmen
and their superiors.
Diabolical Tatar Appears.
A week ago last Friday night some-
one hung over the Information desk
and Introduced this diabolic mystery
to the police. Here's the thing they
are working on: .
An oblong is drawn. The oblon ij
subdivided Into five smaller rec
tangular areas. The probhm Is to
draw a line that crosses every section
of straight line in this design. Nv
section of line Is to be crossed twice
nnd the drawn line must not intersect
use ii.
The thing proved so ellurinr an
tantalising that it spread like will
fire. For 24 hours of the day of the
last eight days there has not been a
minute when somewhere in the city a
policeman was not working on the
puzzle. .
It spread to the detective burear.
It went to the jail and the Jailers in
troduced it to the trustees. It went
to the municipal court and Judge
LangUth and Clerk Neal Crounse
work on it surreptitiously when they're
supposed to be working on a case. '
B3ffcer Mathematics Besotted to.
Every once in a while someone
exclaims out loud and shouts "I've got
it." A second later a pained expres
sion sweeps over the countenance of
the contestant as he discovers a lino
that his sector has not crossed.
Policemen on the beats scratch the
oblongs in the snow with their number
twelves and then attempt to finish It.
Exhausting all the stationary at head
quarters, patrolmen forget their oaths
and sneak to the reporters' room to
steal copy paper for further experi
ments.
Some policeman last night estimated
that a million attempts had been made
to solve it last week. They were still
roinr at it strong Saturdsy at mid
nlarht. but were no nearer a solution
than on the first day.
