TOUCH OF SNOW GIVES LAKE VISITORS A TREAT Six Inches of snow has fallen at Crater national park since last Sun- oay, most of which melted away rap idly, including the fresh snow that fell yesterday wheih, while It lasted, transformed the lake and park Into a veritable fairyland, and was much apperclated by the tourists and other visitors. The tourists, especially those from southern California, were enraptured at the sight. Even the regular force of park em ployes , and those of the concessions, and laborers on the rim road, en Joyed the novel wintry sight. The weather conditions at Crater national park, following the rain and snow of earlier in the week, Which cleared the atmosphere and made wonderful visibility, are now condu cive to making the scenery all the more attractive. TourlBts and others continue visit the national park dally, and local people who wish to enjoy the lake and surroundings in fall setting, before the season comes to an of ficial close on September 20, have only a little over a week to do so. The cafeteria Is still open, although the lodge closed about two weeks ago, and the roads are in good condl tlon. The park improvement work and the work of constructing the first section of the new rim road are still in progress and will be as long as the weather permits, perhaps into late fall. As in past seasons, even after ' concessions close on September 20, hundreds will continue to visit the national park until the coming of winter prevents. : Brill Sheet Metal Works does ex pert repairing, fender and auto body repairing. Fall is the Best Time To Make a Lawn Experienced Growers Know That Fall is the Best Time to Make New Lawns and to Reseed Old Ones. In the cool, moist autumn weather gr&nt seed germi nates quickly and steadily, sustained growth takes plate. Weeds are not so troublesome in fall-sown lawns, for most weed seeds germinate in the spring and summer. That is why it is easier and more eco nomical to make your new lawn and build up the weak spots in the old turf at this time.

According to information furnished to District Attorney George A. Cod ding, Williams will return to this city of his own free will from Phila delphia where he has been under arrest since July, for alleged fraudu lent stock transactions. A Pennsyl vania court nolle prossed Indictments against him, so he could return to Oregon. Expense a (actor Heavy expense entailed In return ing Williams here was given as one reason for decision to take no official action. It would require two men to escort .him across the country and if he chose to fight extradition, the cost would be higher. Another factor was the feeling that the governor would be reluctant to issue requisition pa pers. Williams is specifically charged with selling mortgaged furniture be longing to "Your Office Boy," to a man by the name of Griffin. eH Is also alleged to have civil actions pending, in which steps for adjust ment .have been made. Williams Is well known throughout the state. eH first appeared In this city 18 months ago and leased min eral land In the Gold Hill area, for development by a secret process. He shipped In machinery, which was never removed from the cars, while the demurrage bills of the Southern Pacffic mounted.

Plans were drawn for the structure but none of his plans' materialized. When the schemes collapsed Wil Hams, in a paid advertisement. threatened to move his general of fices to Grants Pass and blamed the Mail Tribune for his failure. A few weeks later Williams went to Los Angeles and was next heard of In Philadelphia.

"I was thinking about this while I was enjoy ing a CHESTERFIELD cigarette. You know, I have been smoking CHESTERFIELDS quite a long time, and they are not like some of our friends one thing today and another thing tomorrow. They are always the same always mild always so pleasing in taste. They just satisfy all the time. "By the way, that reminds me of something. I was playing bridge recently with a girl friend of mine and two men, and after we finished the game they tagan lambasting a whole lot of things and folks. Some of the talk was right funny, you couldn't help laughing; but, really, they pulled down a whole lot of things, and didn't build up anything. "And that reminded me of a salesman who called to see me the other day to tell me some thing about CHESTERFIELD. The thing that pleased me more than anything else was that he didn't lambast and cuss out any other cigarette; but, of course,- he thought that CHESTER FIELD was the best . . .
