The party had reached the summit of the mountain with exclamations of king- drawn out "Ohs !" and ?Ahs" at the view across the Columbia, when Leader R. W. Ayer hurried them on, since they only had an hour to reach Prindle before train time, and must buck the brush most of the way." In "bucking- the brush," Leader Ayer took his followers too far down and they soon found themselves on the jumping- off place of a perpendicular cliff. Since progress forward was impossible, scratched and perspiring-. trie party painfully began to creep upward again. When they reached a point where descent was possible. It was 20 minutes until train time, and long before they were down the steep and rocky mountainside, the whistl3 of the engine was heard. Long Walt - Esdnred No other train stopped at Prindle that evening. After consultations and inquiries, a fisherman was found, who made a tidy little sum by ferrying- tha party across the river for 60 cents a person.- No automobiles could be found at Multnomah falls, where they landed, to haul the hikers back to Portland. Mr. Ayer then telephoned and had tha promise of two cars about 9 :30. Then came the long wait. They buUt a fire as tha darkness came on. and waited. Nine-thirty arrived, but no automobiles. Sweaters were thin and. the circle about the fire became smaller. Finally, about 10 o'clock one car came Another was on tne way. It was said. The driver sug-gested that they -all ride In- the one car until tbey met the second car. They oiled in 12 of them and the driver made 13. "II" Hot TJalueky He hesitated when he learned the unlucky number. He might have a blowout. Then some decided to wait for the other car. But it might have had an accident and would not get there at all. So they finally decided to start with the load of IS and go very slowly and carefully, keeping a close lookout for the tardy car. A light ahead I If was only the reflec tion from a dinner bucket carried by a pedestrian. Another light! This time it was the Vista house. Then came a sure enough car. The driver stopped. He got out and hailed the automobile, but it passed him by without a glance. The car started again. Another light and another automobile with the same process repeated. Finally, with the third light and the third car, the missing auto mobile was found and the party was divided. Most of them got home by 1 o'clock Monday morning. But as the Maza mas say, not often do they get a train ride, a hike, a boat ride, a visit to Multnomah falls and an auto mobile ride on the Columbia highway all In one day. War S. S.

Twenty-one years ago. Octover 17, 1W7, Mrs. Jennie L. Wheeler, 471 Killings worth avenue, began working m the general delivery department of the Portland postoffice. At that time there were two other women in the employ of the postal department in Portland, but they have left the work for other fields, and Mrs. Wheeler, now time keeper, remains as the oldest employe in point of service. ' Today there are 65 women employed in the Portland postoffice, 13 as letter carriers and 52 as clerks. Of those en gaged as clerkb 2 are stenographers, 14 work in the money order, postal savings and cashier's offices. 23 are engaged in hxiiidilng mail In the general delivery and box sections. 2 are In the registry division and 3 sell stamps. Eight women are also employed in various stations throughout the city. According to Postmaster Frank S. Myer. applications are being received constantly from women, particularly those engaged in school teaching during the winter months, to enter the govern ment's service as mall carriers or clerks. Many of these applications are turned down because the women do not have the physical qualifications consll ered si'lflclent for one who must cavry heavy packs of mail and tramp the hot streets when delivering. A weight of 135 pounds is believed necessary for ef ficient .work unless the applicant has particular strength and hardiness to overbalence the lack In weight. "Ji-.nvay 1, 1918. only 11 women were employed In the Portland postoffice." said Mr. Myers, "and, without the help of the women to take the place of men wo could not have maintained the serv ice In recent . months. Within another year a larger number of women will have taken the places of men taken into military service and, as soon as we go Into the new postoffice, which may be within 60 days, women will be emploved in segregation and distribution of mail, which has heretofore been done only by men." Mr. Myers pays a high compli ment to the intelligence and efficiency of the women. Fifty-six employes of the- Portland postoffice are fn the army and naval service of tha 'country and others are leaving constantly. For 35 years Newton L. Gilham has been carrying mall out of the Portland postoffice and, la point of service, la the oldest employe la the office. Since Hay It, 1S83, Mr. Gilhaaa haa been employed continuously in the postal delivery work and Is now carrying out of the main of fice to downtown points of delivery. Postal savings now aggregate $1,652. $11, as compared with $1,488,550 one year ago and $890,052 on June 40. 1911. Postmaster Myers attributes this' tn crease to general growth of the country, increased prosperity and the greater use made of the department by foreigners, who formerly sent their money abroad. Postal receipts for the year ending June 30. If IS. approximate $1,142.(91.40, as against $1,249,104.45 for June 30, mt Postmaster Myers states that the Port land postoffice. through the mala affice and branch statlocuu.hae aold U50O4 worth ef War 'Savings and : Thrift Stamps, or about one-third of aU that have been sold in the entire state. . , but w. a. a, . ; : v Two is Navy Are Dreeraed :;v Washington,.
