part, both In swelling the toll of

and on the west coast that most of
the drownings were reported. In

of the heat and two more were prostrated.
New Record Is Made In
Ascent Of Mountain By
Portland-Salem Party
Establishing a new record in mountain climbing, a party
of four, including one woman, ascended the North Sister Sat
urday and scaled the pinnacle over a month earlier than any
previously known ucent. - The re-
EXIT
(Continued from Page 6)
ftlr of selfishness that provoked the
villagers to wonder "what the child
would come to."
In the years of their childhood,
Tony and his little girl neighbor
were often together, but she was
no more to him than his other boy
and girl playmates. He did not
become ronsclous of her until tile
year before they graduated from
the public school. Tony was 14;
Harriet was two years younger.
She had been a grade behind him
but that year she caught up with
his class so that thry would gradu
ate together.
One evening when we were sit
ting In the summer twilight the old
gentleman said, "It la strange how
that part of my life when I was an
actor, seems to me, now, to be only
a dream." And then he continued
aa 'though he had forgotten my
presence: "But my childhood and
youth which I spent here In Or
chard Hill with Harriet those
years of my life are very real."
They who pride themselves upon
being too sophisticated and worldly-wise
to Indulge In sentiment will
laugh with hard laughter at this
old man's me.norlea They will say
that Antonio Latour's story Is senti
mental bosh.
Well, of this I am convinced:
All normal men and women who
have truly lived do have such emo
tional mrmorie,. And I believe, too.
that If the truth were known, the
heart experiences which these
world-hardened critics so carefully
hide are the dearest treasures of
their years.
As for what are termed the
realities of Ufe do not fear. Be
fore Antonio Latour's story Is fin
ished you shall hear enough of be
trayals, and robberies, and mur
ders, and tragic death.
(To be Contuaatd)
glster on top of the pinnacle r;
vealed that the earliest previous
ascent of the mountain In any year
was on July 6.
In the party making the ascent
Saturday were Robert Donaldson
and Dr. Richard 8trahl of Portland
and Miss Augusta Notdurf and
Richard Upjohn of Salem.
Seven hours were consumed In
Saturday's climb for the party to
reach the peak of the pinnacle from
tlmberllne. Start was made at 3:10
In the morning. A wonderful moon
which appeared as giant disc to
the climbers, Illuminated the moun
tainside and gave them assistance,
although at times flashlights were
necessary. The base of the pinnacle
was not reached until 6 o'clock. Go
ing around the base of the pinnacle
a very steep snowfleld was encoun
tered and use of the rope was re
quired as well as considerable step
cutting.
The chimney of the pinnacle was
ft mass of Ice and members of the
party literally cut their way to the
top with steps cut In the Ice being
necessary nearly every foot of the
way. As a result uiree hours were re
quired In the ascent of the pinnacle
Itself, a task which some members
of the same party accomplished In
about 30 minutes at a later date last
year.
The party could not linger long
at the summit as It was necessary
to get down before the sun had
made Its way around the pinnacle
and started to loosen the Ice. In
fact, when the party had returned
to the base of the pinnacle they were
being sprayed by bits or Ice shat
tering from falling chunks.
On the way down after leaving the
base of the pinnacle It was neces
sary to follow along the rldgc, or a
series of little pinnacles and while
so engaged they saw one of the most
spectacular sights of the trip. when.
below them, an enormous avalanche
broke away, carrying thousands of
tons of snow down the mountainside.
While all the members of the party
have ascended many peaks thev
stated they had before seen no sight
quite equivalent to that avalanche.
ine moon also afforded some
marvelous spectacles The giant disc. 1
like silver, presented ft wonderful
sight as It made Its way over the
pinnacle, but as it was disappearing
before the sun. It afforded some of
the most beautiful pictures they
have seen, reported the mountain
climbers. It descended through
banks of clouds and half submerged
In them converted the clouds Into
the appearance of ft vast silvery and
fleecy lake. The scene was one of
indescribable beauty, they stated.
The party reported that while
camped about two and a halt miles
above the snow line before the start
of the ascent, and snow lay In deep
banks all around them, nevertheless
It was quite warm during the night
before their early morning start.
They returned to Salem about mid
night Saturday.
Donaldson and vpjonn are mem
bers of both the Maiamas and the
Chemeketans. Dr. Strahl Is mem
ber of the Maiamas and Miss Not
durf of trie Chemeketans. Upjohn
and Donaldson expect to lead ft
group of college students and ft few
