National Parks; pqrtund ,is, big asset Visitors Declare That This City 'and i; Its Wonderful Scenic 'Views Necessary Link in Chain : Br Marshall N, Dana Mixed with the normal words of a: conventional "lead" la the broken echo of a verse. "Men to match ray. mountains," is the way it starts. "Men with empires in their brains," Is Us close. A curious Impression persists about the Montanans who rolled Into Portland last Week In their blaTTrel- lowstone ' Park-touring- cars.' They Deemed exponents of a new order, rather than mere travelers. ' They were markers of where fine J high - ' ways ought to be placed to connect ', Uncle Sam's national parks. "They ' were.B-oing about it as the connois , seur would choose the costly cord . for the' pearls of milady's necklace. . ' '.They carried a roned-up picture. or . ieet lone, ef a tourist hotel they pur pose building1 near Helena, but I see them fitting it to our locality as the ex pert designer plans the fitting of a new ' style hat. With an Imaginativeness as vivid as reality, they were placing it upon the upper slope of Mt Hood, head to one side, eyes narrowed, studying the effect It was such an inviting vision that they created, too. ' G0VEB3MEKT INTEREST r-'The hotel was of extended length, its fnajrnlf lcent . dimensions a part of the - majesty of its scenic environment, Ua units suggesting the architectural cosi ness of the chalet, and its foreground smoothly sweeping , and green like a rare mountain park. The guarantee of comfort and pleasure lay in the very appearance of its exterior: there was golf on the '; foreground " rreen and in. aplratlonal ; mountain climbing in its 'background. i What a privilege H- would be to tell prospective travelers everywhere that ".such hotels awaited them at Mt Hood and Crater Lake, as well as Helena and Yellowstone I . The visitors represented directly the . government's interest in the develop mem 01 me .national pane to park tour The" leader was Harry W. Child, nreai. dent of the Yellowstone Park Hotel & Transportation company, and others were Thomas A. Marlow, president of .me national sank of Montana; T. B Miller, Montana mine owner; Max .

XOCAI. SCENIC POINTS VIEWED ' A diverting ; incident occurred late Tuesday afternoon. There wasn't much "time left for sightseeing, and the next day they were going east over the Co lumbia river highway, thence through . Central Oregon, bound, toward Klamath, Crater Lake, Sequoia and Yosemite. But - there was waiting proof that Portland can offer the tourist of limited time views that will be etched like steel engravings on his memory with an over print of .- the colors of beauty.

PORTLAND STRIVING AGAINST TACOMA FOR ROS E SOCIETY GARDEN Appeal for Increased Membership In Rose Society Is Part of Campaign Now On. While John A. Hays of the Metropoli tan park board of Tacoma is In the East endeavoring to Induce the Ameri can Rose society to locate its national test garden in his city, Portland is rap idly taking the steps which will save the garden for this locality. Tacomans are arguing that they have, a rose society of 300 members who are eager to affiliate with the national asso ciation, while Portland, the "Rose. City," has a society less than one-third as large. The Portland ers. in rebuttal, de clare that while the iocal organisation is small, it had affiliated with the na tional association' months ago, had done its preliminary test garden work and has added 60 members to the society In the last week with many more in pros pect , Portland la now the site of the Ameri can society's testing ground in the North west climatic zone. The test gardens at Washington park contain more than 100 bushes from 20 growers in America and England. Commissioner Piper and Park Superintendent Kayoer have stated their willingness to go ahead and complete the various features of the garden. While Tacoma urges that Portland has not kept her promise to the national organi zation and offers and desired area for test garden purposes, Portland .rose cul turUts assert that Portland has not broken her promise and will do every thing originally asked. The policy of the American Rose so ciety, adopted at its July meeting in New York, is to have but one test gar den in each climatic zone ; hence there can be but one In the Northwest Presi-, dent Robert Pyle of the society is un derstood to have taken a position In favor of Portland, saying that this city was first in the Northwest zone to take steps to establish a test garden and that its work should be recognized, provided that the Portland Rose society gains the support of a sufficient number of mem bers. A general appeal has been issued for members by the Portland Rose society to all who are interested in keeping the national test gardens here. ' The ad vantage to amateur and professional rose culturists ia that they are thereby affiliated with the national organization and receive all its publications, including its exhaustive annual report on progress in rose testa Those who wilt help the campaign have been asked to send the? annual 2 dues with name and address to H.
