They were gone seven . weeks and were as far east as New York? city, were in 28 states besides Ontario, Canada, and still found no place as lovely as the Willamette valley: i r ' . "I had never been -farther east than YellowstonoT said Mrs. Mor- - ley, a trne Oregoniaa. "We found the roads good and. the' only trouble we . experienced ;was a : couple of punctures. ,We enjoyed the trip immensely and saw many beautiful things, but as for a home I wouldn't trade the Wil lamette .valley for all of, itI : - . , ',The; group. left Oregon by. way ef the. John. Day . trail, . going ; through to Salt Lake, City where they visited, the Moriaan buildings of historical " value.
