I know a spot In the foothills
of the mountains where the road
elopes down the hill to the turn
lor the bridge. Between the road
and the bridge great fir trees
stood that have been growing
there since long before the white
roan came. They shaded deep
pools where the salmon layand
overhung the riffles where fisher
men for1 years have cast their
' flies. The grove has been some
thing of a common, easily acces
sible from the road, long popular
for picnic parties and camps for
fishermen. '
But within the-spaee of a few
days the trees have been felled.
Caterpillar tractors have gouged
out roads, Log trucks have churn
ed up the earth, and the once
well-loved picnic spot has been
destroyed. Nature, beautiful vir
gin, has been raped.
It is-not Just one spot like that.
It is many spots. Some are in the
foothills, others are on the hills
that dot the floor of the valley.
You all recall them, the wooded
tracts which shaded the highways
and gave dots of dark green color
to the landscape. One by one they
are going, victims of the woods

Modern logging is brutal It
leaves mostly desolation in its
wake the; skinny, weak trees,

By Llllle L. Madsen
Garden Editor, The Statesman
Judged the most perfect bloom
entered in the annual Chrysanthe
mum show of the, Little Garden
club of Salem Heights, was a
huge eight-inch Bronze Wait,
grown and entered by Mrs. R. W.
Wyatt. Sweepstakes in the hor

and Mrs. Joe VanCIeve tied for

E. McWain, using Bells of Ireland

Oregon Council of Churches, said
the plan was started by several
members of the Oregon council
after it was discovered that all
of Washington's and most of Ore
gon's contributions to the "Friend
ship Train" could not be carried
east on the train, i . " ' i
The "Friendship Train left Los
Angeles Friday 'night for . New
York, and will stop along the route
to pick up contributions of food
and grain for European relief. Dr.
Hamblin said Oregon sent two cars
of grain to Ogden, Utah, where
it was linked with the relief train;
but that numerous other contri
butions had to be left because
transportation was not available.
Many Not Represented
"Many persons in the northwest
were not represented on the
friendship train," Dr. Hamblin
said. "Therefore, the Oregon Coun
cil of Churches is endeavoring to
arrange for a Christmas ship that
will carry grain and food for Eur
opean and Asiatic relief."
Hamblin said the ship would
sail either from Portland or Se
attle, but that complete plans have
not yet been worked out by the
Washington and Oregon councils.
The Oregon council has been as
sured of the cooperation of the
Washington group which already
has 10 carloads of grain to load
abfcard the ship, Hamblin explain
ed. Another two carloads of grain
have been offered from Gilliam
county, the pastor said.
Transportation Costs Paid
Persons Interested' In making
contributions to the relief ship
may do so by contacting the Rev.
Gilbert Christian, Portland, ex
ecutive secretary of the Oregon
Council of Churches, or Dr. Ham
blin in Salem. Transportation
costs from any point to the ship
will be paid by the government
and railroads, Dr. Hamblin said.
