It is doubtful if many however can say they have seen more than the main falls, either the falls on the south fork or on the north fork of the creek,, both of which are easily accessible from the v road. Besides these two major falls however there are num erous others whose beauty rivals, and in some respects sur passes either North or South falls. They have been made easily accessible by trail from the highway, the work havnfe been done since the area was made into a state park. The writer joined the Chemeketan party Sunday for a tour of the falls, the first visit there in several years, and the first time to view the more remote falls. It was winter when the party reached the parking place at North falls. Snow covered the ground. Along the road a field of daffodils was passed with yellow blooms protruding through a quilt of pure white. The winter dress of the hill and canyon added to the beauty of the scene; and suggested that Silver creek falls might be made into a winter playground as well as a refresh ing spot in midsummer. The best route is to pick up the trail at the parking f place, just a short distance from the bridge, on the south side of the creek. The new bridge of artistic rustic design has been completed and will be put into use as soon as the approaches are built The trail takes one down to the North falls. At this season there is an abundance of water. A unique feature of this falls is the deep gallery that extends back of the falling stream. Overhead is the great basaltic arch from a narrow crevice of which the creek waters make their leap of 146 feet The trail works on down to the level of the stream. Twin falls occur in a short distance, and Drake falls. Perhaps the most beautiful falls of all are Middle North falls. The water does not shoot out in a com pact stream but falls as though over the rim of a bowl, and drops like ft curtain, very evenly. Lower North falls is some what the same except that the drop is not sheer, more like cascades. A tributary to North Silver Creek has the inter esting Double falls, something like Multnomah falls, and are 189 feet higfc. - Farther down the trail crosses over the point to South Silver creek, and goes up to Lower South falls and then to South falls, which is familiar to many people. The state, since taking over the land, is improving it for park purposes. Much work remains to be done; but a good start has been made. . , At nrmr. ttiA hetfor marl to the falls is throuch Sllver- tnn and nn Silver creelc ranvon. More work needs to be done on the south road. As soon as this is finished the loop trip will be one of the finest drives in the state, outside of vnnria ftnnri marls anrl imnrovements at the Dark will make Silver creek falls one of the most popular outing places to be found. The trip Sunday proved delightful and in ntimnlata interest in the falls, and Vt ig A ts V" Hit Mivunsvea v w w - r particularly to suggest the falls as good objectives for win ter outings.

He was in nb sense a par tisan, did his own thinking, and possessed great patience to wait on others to see the light also. His labor on the board was constructive; and his term should, not end without ap propriate recognition of the service he has rendered. Two new men come to the baard, C. A. Brand of Rose burg, succeeding Albert Burch of Medford; and George Mc ' Leod, Portland lumberman. The former is a well-educated man, who served many years on the old board of higher cur ricula. This experience should be helpful unless it has given him fixed ideas which subsequent alterations in the schools have made obsolete. Mr. McLeod is manager of the exten ' sive Hammond Lumber company interests in the state.

With the white light of na tional and international attention focused on Alabama the jurors no doubt felt they were ballotting not on the fate of the colored boy but on the tradition of "white supremacy in the south. The typical mental reaction of southerners would be; turn the niggers loose and the effect will be disastrous. no keeping them in their place. ; , Add to this fear parochialism of the south, specifically a resentment against; white Alabamans of social standing. and the chance for acquittal became slight The prosecutor in his speech to the jury said: "Show them that Alabama Jostleo cannot b bought and old with Jew money la New Tork". This was an obvious appeal to prejudice. -Regarding the evidence the judge went about as far as he dared in his Instructions when he pointed out that "at one time or another both Ruby Bates and Victoria Price perjured themselves . Again he said: "Remember both these women were of the underworld". The Bates woman repu diated her testimony in the first trial and admitted the col ored boys had not molested her or, to her knowledge, the other woman. Yet the jury found the colored boy guilty and eight other boys face the same kind of "justice" on the same evidence. Here of course is the material for another cause cele- bre, another Sacco and Vanzetti affair, though with greater indication of the miscarriage of justice. Is there not greater danger to white supremacy in the south through such a ver dict than if the colored boys were duly acquitted ?

It Is not the first evidence of such an attitude. There has been no evi dence of proflt-eharing among the nop men. Hop prices are at the flood; hop workers' wages aro at low ebb.

His fur-collared overcoat was oa the hall table, and be was turning and twisting his hat ia his hands as he watched her come dowa the last flight of steps. Her heart seemed to be beating aU over her body and there was a singing in her ears; but she greeted him casually as if she had been see ing him every night for months. "Hello, Kfan." "Get your coat" he said. "Get your hat and coat I want you to go for a drive. Her wraps hung on the hall rack where she had put them before din ner while Miss Halperin was using her room.
