Disappointment '
SILVERTON, July 12. -1 Mr:
And Mrs. Stanley; Hannaford and
Mr. and Mm. Roy Morley (Gert
rnde Estelle Morley, sons-writer),
- hare Just returned from an 8000
mil trip. 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. The f uneral
of a daughter of-Brigham Young
' was held while the '.group "was at
Salt Lake. From Salt Lake the
four, driving two cars, went down
to Denver, to , Colorado Springs
and In through Kansas to Kansas
j City and St. Louis In Kansas Mrs.
Morley said, they encountered
their first flreflier. which they
enjoyed Immensely. '; : :
Fair Sight Visited ;
l From : SL Louis they .traveled
, east through, Illinois; Indiana and
Ohio, and to Washington, D. C,
where they T visited the White
House '. and -' other " government
buildings and also attended the
senate in session." They went out
to" 'Arlington cemetery and to
Mount Vernon, then to New York,
city. On up the Hudson they went,
visiting Sing Sing and-West Point,
and ; later (.Niagara falls- They
drove along. Lake Ontario In On
tario,: and on to Detroit, - where
they went through the Ford plant.
At Chicago they spent five days,
chiefly at the - Century of Prog
ress.' exposition! "Mrs. .Morley ad
mitted had they gone east chiefly
to- sea the fair the group would
have been disappointed. The light
ing, she said, was ' particularly
wonderful and the setting itself
was worth seeing. The electrical
display was far beyond 'the nov
ice, she said. Chicago, itself, the
party found fascinating. And the
trees of the east; and middlewest
the group ' found particularly
beautiful, but the shrubs, they
said, were not as lovely as in
Oregon. ; . . :
"Grasshopper'? Pavement
The return trip was made
through Illinois and Iowa, out in
to the Dakotas where heat and
grasshoppers had taken their toll
of the crops. It .was necessary to
place mosquito bar over the radia
tor of the cars in order to keep
It from becoming clogged with
the pests, and the road Itself, Mrs.
Morley said, was actually ' pared
with the grasshoppers. Washing
ton, D..C-. and the Dakotas furn
ished the hottest! days for the en
tire seven weeks. In the Dakotas
they encountered -heat running
steadily at 108 degrees in the
shade. . The . group meandered
through the Bad Lands) the Black
hills into Wyoming, over the Big
Horn mountains. ' through . Cody,
and followed the Shoshone Can
yon highway into' Yellowstone
park,- returning;, to. .Silverton ' by
way of the Old Oregon' trail.

Rooster and
SnakeBattle
But no Draw
SCIO, July 12. This U the
season for .fish stories and snake
stories. This is going to be a snake
story; in fact it is a snake story.;
But there is also a pugnacious
and venturesome male fowl of the
domestic barnyard poultry type
a rooster that doesn't know when
he's In real danger and cares- much'
less. A. L, Plummer, native and
member of the town council here.
Is the owner of the fighting roos
ter. Plummer Is also author of the
statements from which the story
is gleaned.
While haying a few days ago,
Plummer unknowingly hauled is
a garter snake, about 18 inches
long. When he observed the snske
while unloading the hay he tossed
it out several feet with a pitch
fork, v -
The big rooster riveted his
peepers on the reptile for a few
seconds, and then made a dive for
it. The fight was on. The snake
fought. With ..more science .than
sense the chicken would, attempt
to work on the snake's, head.
which was positively its business
end. .':
The snake was finally stunned
into temporary insensibility. The '
rooster availed itself of the op
portunity. With one gulp it seiz
ed the snake's head and proceed
ed to treat it like a man eating
doughnuts without coffee.
The last Plummer saw of the
pair, about three Inches of the
snake's tail was flagging a fond
farewell to things earthly.
