By Marshall B. Dase . The forest service has demanded the increase of accommodations at Cloud Cap inn on the "north slope of Mount Hood, first, as the condition of building an Vasy grade branch from the Mount Hood loop road to the inn. . Elliott glacier and Cooper's spur, and second, as the price of r-newing rthe MOU m HOUS r lease held by the Jdount Hood Trail & Wagon PU4. company. .The ultimatum. ; name December 1 as the last date on ; which' to' meet the requirement of the , forest service. . ,A week ago the writer drove to Cloud ; Cap in order to test by first hand ei '. periesce the report that the present : mountain road is almost Impassably , and the criticism that the present facil ities at the Inn fall biow the neces sities of comfort. The? extreme desirability of balanc ing our invitation to tourists with the mearia; of suitable entertainment when they arrive furnished the motive for th trip. We;, left Portland a little after 5 o'clock on Saturday evening, and-driving along the Columbia highway were agair impressed with its miraculous quality of presenting its thrillingly beautiful views always as if new re gardless of the number of times the same eye may have been delighted by ; them 'bef ore. Mount Hood lodge was reached short- 'ly .after 10 o'clock. Throughout we ;did not drive faster" than 25 miles an hoJSr and with an interval for picnic ' supper in Benson park at Wah-kee-nah : falls." "; The road through Hood river valley was fair except where It fol lows the new and unfinished grade, of the loop route. The night was spent at. the lodge in order that the drive tofthe inn might be made with full : opportunity for observation by day light We were comfortably sheltered outside the main building in a tent hotrse, a fantastically curved little little stream babbling outside t!uj door and Mount Hood's formidable, - shadowy bulk lit by tfte stars in the background. ;TO CjLOUB CAP IS This distance from the lodiie to Cloud Cap nn la six miles. The climb is fromjan elevation of 500 feet to 6250 feet, jf The drive required 40 minutes. There1 were some bumps. There was some-tdust. One used either interme diate or low gear. But compared to a road on the middle fork o the South Fsnfiam where three weeks agol made iess than seven miles in; two hours and .five minutes driving as fast as 1 could. Jhe ascent to the inn was strangely devoid of excitement or unrertanty. One has the satisfaction of realizing that he has attained one of the highest oiiits in Oregon which may be reached by an autcmobile. and that he Is con siderably higher tha.n Paradise inn in Rainier National park. A .otORiors view : All the value of the climb is in the Viftwi. Cloud Cap Inn Us a, watch, tower of' beauty. With the. naked eye we eoold; see a party of fife people pass ing; splderwlse over snow and ice to disappear among the almost perpen dicular rocks that must be surmounted before gaining the summit of Hood, The glacial system of ; the mountain was spread before' our- eyes. A few mftiutes' walk brought us to th snout of 1 KHiott glacfer, where a , piece of talus covered ice was broken orl which might' have spent a thousand years or more reaching the point where a roar ing str.-am plunged downward. To the rnortliwestwflrd and far below. Lost lake glimmered, the apparent Jewel of a green meadow, but the green was jor towering forests oi nr. in me eajt, in magical tones 'of brown and gold, -were tlie boundless grain fields of Eastern Oregon. Toward the evening hour some frag ments of cloud fluttered out of the west Upon them the Sun poured its refracted light and oyer on the nor thern horizon Adams, Kalnier and St. Helens lost their connection with earth and became crystal ships in a sea of iroSe petals. Always recurrent in mem- pry and in d reams must, oe in spec iaeular beauty of this outlook. A LOG STBX'CTTJBB Cloud Cap inn is a log building rith high pitched roof, cable-braced against the .weight of winters snows. The toll road which reaches It and the building itself. e evidence of almost the earliest efforts to please the . tourist. The road was first. made years ago, and the. building 33 years ago. The latter is still well preserved, pictur esqely consistent with tts rugged en- vironment. The several cabins around the main building furnish supplemen tary sleeping quarters and seemed to be tight against the weather. Cloud Cap inn is within the Oregon national forest and is maintained by permit Issued from year to year by the forest service. After noting the com plaint that the present buildings are inadequate. 1 was surprised to find that the capacity is i approxtmately eyen times ine pr?w" r tVijt meals firood. .:'--" DlFICrtTIEft OALOKE More than two-years ago-the pioneer ritlsens that had built aind maintained . Cloud Cap inn at rrooootooously re peated loss were about to abandon the place for lack of patronage. Then Homer Roger, who. for some years, had been operating Mount Hood lodge. . took over the place. The Mount Hood, loop road, which ty the way. he rigin slly suggested was at that time proj ected, and it was easy ttQ believe that with the -loop route completed, P tro nacre would support tJie two places jointly administered. In bttildingthe loop road thero have been the inevit able delays and patronage 'has not produced profits. Yet one wonders what capitalist will take up the ven ture if the lessee be ousted. , vfneh the loop road is finished and the branch road on easy grade is built, th spectacular qualities of the Cloud Cap Jan location should make it a val uable tourist property.! But should that value inhere solely to those mho come in at the eleventh hour or those who have toilsomely held on through the lean years' ' ' DANCE TONIGHT ! ' Boat SWAN EAST MOBRISOX PRXTKJEV Sit?

The Confidential Exchange, which is now an integral part of the Portland Community Chest, is an office contain ing card indexes on which are listed the names of individuals or families registered by the various social agen cies of the city through which It is possible to learn in the shortest possi ble time wiiat other agencies are in-, (v-rtf-i n the same families that have appealed to them. T i.c c:,esl reeks to avoid a dupli- cation in the solicitation of funds while the Exchange seeks to Avoid duplication in service. "The exchange has been referred to aa a social service encyclopedia. It Is in reality a very necessary index to encyclopedic Information which Is rto be found in the offices of the vari ous societies consulting the exchange," said Miss Margaret D. Creech," secre tary. "Do you fan the leaves of your encyclopedia in a hit or miss effort to locate the information you seek or do you go directly to the index and let it guide you at once to the page on which the desired knowledge Is to be found? If one is of the latter type of mind they will sense the purpose of (he Confidential Exchange. SATES FT2CDS AKD TIME - " "Participation in the exchange saves1 funds, saves the time of work ers And promotes the best service to needy and unfortunate families. It saves the families from being pau perised by being able to receive funds from all available sources. The story of one Portland family receiving 14 turkeys on Christmas a few years ago and entertaining IS relatives for a week, is one well known to Portland social workers. The exchange ; brings better service to -needy families by bringing about cooperation on the part of agencies. "A case 1 point is that of a tuber cular mother who was nursing her baby. The tuberculosis nurse visiting- hen told her she must not nurse the child. -!The child -welfare worker, not knowing'' the tubercular condi tion, was Admonishing her to continue nursing the -child. One day the nurses met on ths doorstep and explanations and an TjanderstAnding followed. The agency worker, who; is Interested in children, the worker who Is interested In the health of the family and the WOrker'Sfho seeks to prevent poverty,, ach AV different viewpoint. It is hy the erglntf of these viewpoints that tto- best service Is given. Full use of the- exchange prevents families from being confused by contrary Ad vic. from the various Agencies by bringing About intelligent cooperation on the prt of participating Agencies. A local - worker tell of visiting a mother And - five children and of Ad vising on the best course to persue, as nothing was done after several visits, she Asked the mother why she had net done - as she requested And she said four ether workers had visited her and she didn't know what to do.

It is not sn-fhjury to a family to list mm Lit, in the exchange. Sometimes the-fExchange objection Is raised : This is such a nice familv that I would not care to register it." s This' is founded entirely Upon a misconception of the function of the exchange." During the past year inquiries were received from SS agencies, the total number of inquiries received being 12.C0O. The exchange carried a totaj of SO, 000 cards on which were no te3 from one to It persons. Detroit, with a population of more than 990,000, re oelved Inquiries from only 57 Agencies during- the pAst year, showing Port land's cooperation to be considerably greater than that of the Eastern city. These Portland figures are exclusive Of the special holiday clearance main tained at Thanksgiving and Christmas time, separate cards being made out at that time with designations of gifts of food, toys and clothing, these to be checked off as they are supplied, thus insuring a lack of duplication while others go without anything.) During the holiday season inquiries were re ceived from 75 agencies. . j The Community Chest and ithe Con fidential Exchange are desirous of the participation of all churches, lodpes, schools and other bodies which have any interest in the welfare of Individuals or families.

INDIVIDUAL EXHIBITS Aside from the county .exhibit there will be individual farm lexhibits, which will be made up from products of in dividual farms, display tr be crown by Whatever theme you seek to express in your home, you are invited to make use of the; services of Jenning's advisory staff; and, in mak ing selections, it is well to remember that greater freedom of choice is allowed by the vast stocks of ; the Northwest's largest house of home furnishings where distinctive character in home interiors is possible at moderate cost. Because Jennmg's displays among the very complete stocks the most exclusive and the finest conceptions of the home-maker's art, does not imply that Jenning's caters alone to the patronage of those who are interested only in the finer and more expensive appointments. Jenning's is not so much in the business of selling furniture as in the business of creating better homes by fostering the spirit of home love through the creation of home beauty. To Jenning's the modest home is just as much a home, ahd as worthy of the same careful thought and Interest, as' the mansion on the hill, The one point upon which Jenning's, insists, is that every furniture piece, whether the most costly for .the least expensive, must bear artistic beauty in the creation of la real home. ! - . - : v. - Such beauty is the least expensive of qualities, as a visit to Jenning's aha a comparison of values will demonstrate v And because Jenning's takes a keen pleasue in contributing, toward the creation of an artistic home and realizes that such a home need not be expensively furnished, the patronage of those whose price limitations, are modest is also -eagerly sought and swill be gladly. enry Jenniiig & Sons 'The Home of Good Furniture Washington at Fifth th exhibitor.'
