All the boys came back in perfect physical condition and all singing the praise of Swift's products."

Club News Keber, Phono 82 Miss Lord Tells of Hike In Islands Miss Elizabeth Lord, who left her home in Salem last fall to spend two years in the Orient, has written recently to Mies Mabel Robertson of an extremely inter esting hike she took recently with Miss Lillian Auld of Eugene through the mountainous districts of tho Philippine islands. Ex tracts from her letter follow: My lest letter to you announc ed my intended trip thru the Igo rot country. I must toll you a bit about it, tho' we have been home a week. In the finst place. It turn ed out to be a walking trip. That I was not so keen about for I dearly love to ride, but as the others thought it would be an easy amble and good horses dif ficult to procure, besides taking a boy along to take care of them, I joined the other three and knew I could do it if they could. Lil lian had never walked more than five miles at a stretch In her life, I bad done a bit more as you know, and the Gardeners were strangers to me and 1 knew noth ing of their ability of stepping. The government has built rest houscs'every 30 to 40 kilometers (5-S of a milo,) where a fair bed and tolerable food can be had at a very moderate price. There is no other place to remain, so it means one must make the house every day, or sleep on the moan tains, or under -a tree fern. We drove up by car as far as possi ble and so far it was a nerve rack ing ride, I had never been on a more dangerous road, more hair pin turns, narrow and the most percipitious walls of earth ever made by God. We had 10 kilo meters to finish the first place, elevation 8003 feet the highest en route. From that point we gradually go down to 2000 feet, tho' not so steep that the walk is uncomfortable. As for mountain views and mountain foliage, I have never seen anything more beautiful. The wholo ridge is so rugged and altho' the peaks are not as high as Mt. Hood, the very great number of them ranging from S to 9000 feet, make It seem as tho' the wholo country were in the THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON mountainous. As for vegetation, I could not make nif eyes behave. Every day was different. Some times we would pass thru pine forests and then turn our way thru paths of. moss and ferns, cas cades and moisture eking out of every crevice. I cannot begin to tell you of all the variety of veg etation. It was tropical at times and again semi-tropical, and again as much like our woods to make me think I was at home and not in the P. I. Life on the road was scarce the first three day-j, but tho 17 kilometers before we came to the town of Bontoc was a constant stream of humanity, men wore only a gee string, wo men a skirt, no waist. So many old and decrepit women, it was very heartrendering to me. Old age at home is bad enough, but among the wild people, there. Is no means of taking care and the women seem to get the hardest lot in life as usual. We left Baguio Sunday morn ing and arrived in Bontoc Thurs daythe farthcrest point north and the turning back place. So far you have heard the beautiful part of the trip, there Is an amusing side that I know you will enjoy. Our first walk was 30 kilometers, that docs not sound very much, but to walk about 20 miles off the bat without any previous In struction, it is not o easy as it sounds even to an oltfrwar horse like me. L. and I kept together, the other two seemed to walk so much faster, tho' gave out long before we did and wo reached acMillan Arctic the rest house two hours before they. Dy the time I Ket there, tny teet were so blistered. I ambled in limping. Of course, we were sore the tiret day, but after the r.rst day, physical tired bothered me little. But, my dear, my feet. You should have seen them. : 1 thought of you as I sat on the edge of the rlco paddy and let my blisters dangle lu the goey water. so blessed It did feel. You would never have allowed me to do it, but I did not care if I died right there, the cool muddy water felt so good and the blisters really felt better after they had been removed of their bags of water. The fourth day, they were so bad I had to take a pony Into Bontoc. Went to tho hospital there and had the Igorot doctor dress them. Remained off one day and walked 30 miles the next. We were mak ing the return back then, going through the rice terrace country, eo beautiful yet 60 painful. Be fore reaching the Ifaguo rice ter raco mountains we paescd thru the loveliest woods I've ever seen 15 miles of it. Banawe the prin cipal atop in this district, Is nestled in the valley and we ap proached over tho mountain top, looking down upon the valley. which was the loveliest green ever made by God and man. When in Bontoc we met a bunch of sev en women goin0 In our direction and It meant poor accommoda tions and food on the entiro trip Mothers Now Smile At that "Sitmmer Breakfast" problem "r Quick Quaker cooks in 3 to 5 minutes Needed vigor food No hot kitchens Cook la aaaaa aTT,i cT V iTaf iTk Floor Lamp, Bridge Lamp ami Table Jyl P IjamP Pedestals as low as Ml P $575 6J J. s5fll Without Shades H if l 1 Shades of Silk, Parchment and 'Aeroplane jj lfj $3.75 f 'ir . i U Come early if you want one of these lamps.

Our horses proved to be fair, sure little beasts, tho' slow, even the cargadore was so slow and Indifferent about our advancement of the journey, we becamo dreadfully put out with him. We got to the first rest house by noon and had to wait an hour before our man caught up (Continued on Pago Six) Clear Your Skid Of Disfiguring!
