we just decided to find out for
ourselves whenever e could, ,' It
wasl ots of: fun, but: somethlmes
bard work. Wasn't It, Betty?
She said turning toward the other
girl
Yes,.' grinnedlBetty," but some
time ft was harder when they

so 'Vith . that xea cents wer started

new; experience on the way. We
$oj "ridea quit? Often; so we made
gopd. time over the sand hills.' But
we were-worried about the ferry
We didn't know what the charge
wa. "but were very, surJt wsf
more, than five cents apiece. Be
fore we got there, though, a man
and' bis"; wife who ; were going :to
Portland : picked ns up and we
just stayed Jn hlst car. I didn't
cost him anything extra and it
saved our faces
On the way ds'wn from Takima
some one had told the girls there
waa lots of trork at Hood River,
so they stopped there.
"It was Sunday noon . when we
got to Hood River; Anne said
and we went out west of town and

a pasture all afternoon trying, to
. think: what to do. .We;.bad been
expecting money, but our mail bad

''Finally Betty went to a store
and speaf .that precious dime for
something to eat; We ate it and
some. -sweet apples that, were on
' the ground under a tree. ' '
"At first we bad thought of
sleeping there in the pasture, but
! as it grew later we began to think
t Tom Murray and his pals who
were out of prison. ' We didn't
like the idea of a possible Tisit

clock, the only think of any value
we had with us, and went down

we went to Portland.
'There we stayed for a week,
Anne went on. "We got my type

up to pick hops near St. Paul and

Stirred. The j first ride ? offered
us- was by two young Japs. We
rode and were stared at by all
tne people we saw along the road,
but wb were never treated nicer
by any white folks not so nicely
by some," she added with a wry
smile. - ; . :
Yes, Betty, the very next ride
was with a white man who was
ratherArude," AQne remembered.
'Uh-hub,' Betty nodded. "Tnt.
the one who had been married a
week Once. The oho who said
he'd been around a good deal-
mostly 'round home."
They both laughed at the re
membrance.
He wasn't very nice, but" 1
think he'd been drinking," said
Anne. "He was awfully afraid
Betty was going to sit on his pie
and in that case he'd have no
supper." r
"We spent that night at Sunny-
aide. said Betty. .
And slept in the kitchen," said
Anne. "
"Had to wait till they'd all got
through with their suppers," put
in Betty. . . 1
'We didn't mind," 'Anne con
tinued "because they didn't charge
us anything, and if they had we'd
have bad to wait up all night". :
"That's once we were glad they
had no cabins in the camp," Betty
added
Then she went on: "We got
our mail and our money while we
were picking - hops, so we con
tinued our hike. But we , had
learned something; from that work
as we had never seen a hop field
before."
They went on to tell how -good
people have been to them since
they've been west.
On of them said, . "One man
where we stopped for ,a drink told
us that no one. out Jiero wouia
trust any one till he'd known him
five -years. .But 'they certainly
haven't acted that way toward us.
They have treated us like we be
longed to the family wherever: we
have been."
; I askd them what other work
they had done that was a new to
them
We've, worked in the cannery.
they told me. and showed me their
hands. They had.
."We picked evergreen black
befries," Anne said. "Our poor
hands and arms and ankles! We
picked four days."
.'And have never been able . to

we could see how the work went
in the dryer," Betty boasted.
It 'was all so new and exciting
to them.
"We are getting lots of thrills
as well as lots of muscle," they
told me. "And we do like Oregon
and its people. We hope we can
get work here in Salem so we can
stay all winter.. It's a nice city."
"Maybe we wont like the rainy
season," Betty said. "But we are
anxious to find out. You see we
are used to winters with lots of
snow and real weather."
LEADS TO ILLS
Attention Is, Called by" Road
Master Culver to Silver
Falls District
The five-year . market road pro
gram of the county court includes
high, grade road within four
miles of the main south falls in
the Silver Falls district, and with
in six miles of the north falls,
near the bridge, traveling by way
Of Macleay and the Waldo. Hills,
according to J. W. Culver, county
roadmaster. - ,
As five or six sawmills are now
operating in this district, Mr. Cul
ver said it would be useless this
year to begin construction of good
roads in the immediate , Silvr
Falls district. It is thought that
within a year or two several of the
mills will hare cut their timber
and then the roads will not be
cut up by so much heavy iauling,
From Silverton, the road to the
falls Is in fine shape, having been
completed this past summer. The
falls at the bridge are known as
North Falls, 146 feet, and Upper
North Falls, 65 feet.
Next summer a crusher will be
located on the road to the falls
lust north of the Union Hill school
house. The road to the falls will
be greatly improved to within four
miles of the main south falls, with
a fall of 184 feet.
It; is understood that the road
district In which the falls are lo
cated appreciate the value of trav
el to the falls and will from year
to year levy a small millage tax
to complete the road, connecting
the south falls with' the iain
north falls near the bridge. This
will enable tourists to travel to
the falls by way of Macleay and
return by way of Silverton.
. i Within a few years there will
then be a fine market road to the
falls, and travelers may make the
loop, feeing the fine farming lands
in the Central Howell district and
the rolling hill lands in the fertile
Waldo Hills district.
yThe proposed market road pro
gram, recently adopted by the
cqunty court; means the construc
tion of roads. wherebyT the road
bed is drained and graded of the
proper width, just'the same as if
prepared for a paved roadJ The
road is then covered with crushed
rock and gravel to the depth pf
eignv incnes bound tpgether with
a clay filler. The road is then
dragged and kept; 1q tine condi-
Hoa, making travel over it as com
lof table. as over paved roads. As
an . illustration of. the proposed
roads included in the market road
program, -Mr. Culver says such a
road, will be similar to the road
from Sheridan to Tillamook, main
tained by the state. yy
In years to come, roads that
come under the, market road pro
grant, win be paved. The county
Program otroad building will fol
low the. plan of less paved; reads
each year, but more market roads,
leading, out . into the outlying districts.-
.From eight to ten miles
of roads will be paved next year;
according to the program of the
county court. .. y y ; v- - ;
As soon as good roads are built
Into the i Silver .Creek Falls dii
trict, .whereby t raveles may make
the loop, it is estimated that from
8.000 to 10,000 visitors will .Visi
the falls annually;yThese are the
figures ot the Salem Chamber of
Commerce. ,
Kf .'.Marion .county now, has 138
miles of payed roads bntlt by the
county, 3 8 'miles of paved roads
built by, thetstatc. nd : then In
addition the paved " roads in the
cities. In Salem there are 53 miles
of paved roads.

fendants guilty. If you are re-
nilse In your duty yott will be say-Un
i;r t th' dfndartt nd in
other. convicts Confined in the
Oregon .penitentiary - that they
can commit just such a crime as
took the life of John Sweeney
and suffer no punishment other
than to bo returned, to the prison
from whicb they escaped. ,
"The defense has .painted for
you the picture of a prison they
declare is a living death for those
confined, in it. , Yet counsel for
the . defense is pleading with you
to return these defendants to that
living death. If you rturn these
living death. If you-retum these
life sentences it will be simply be
giving them the opportunity to
commit the same crime over
again."
The prosecutor attacked the
plea of the defense that neither
Willos or Kelley .participated in
the actual killing of. , Sweeney,
pointing out that the law requires
that all parties to a criminal con
spiracy in which murder is Com
mltted are equally guilty and bus
ceptible to the same penalties.
"Should these two defendants
escape the death penalty meted
to Murray simply because they
held back and allowed bim to
commit the act which opened the
way to their liberty?" . Carson
asked. "There is no evidence of
either of them holding back and
refusing to take advantage of the
deed he Committed. The responsi
bility of upholding the officers
who have sworn to serve your in
terests rests with you in this case,
ladles and gentlemen of the jury,
and I trust that you will not be
found delinquent in your duty."
