Yesterday being Sunday an excursion flooded the island, with men, women and six or seven hundred of them baskets, knapsacks, pocket cameras and beach pajamas, all over the place. We met one of the excursion crowds while motoring back to our hotel, it was like motoring through a band of sheep only worse, for sheep have some excursionists haven't. It took through one block of them. The CCC boys have done a where else. They have put the roads in excellent condition and constructed numerous trails all over the island. Their main camp near one of the little fresh water lakes, is a model of neatness and attractiveness and librnry being one of the best in a CCC camp. Certainly an on the edge of a lake with a boats; salt water breezes sifting through the thick forest of pine and fir and madrona, at night ; good food, plenty of useful outdoor work certainly if these lean citizens, and in later life ment has done for them, the sponsibility for the failure on no One of the improved highways leads to Mt. Constitution, the highest point of the island, 2400 sound. We motored there just distance to the top where the observation tower. With the in the west and the full moon, was certainly something worth suspended high in the air, for from the observation point there is a sheer drop to the tops of the firs and pines below, through which the surfaces of little lakes shimmered like pewter discs, while far to tho right, the snowy slopes of Mt. linker pierced the hazy horizon, the edges tipped with rose, from the rays of the setting Bun. One couldn't believe the water below had anything to do with the Pacific ocean. There are so many islands, large, small and medium, of all shapes and sizes, the water so still and quiet between, that it gave the effect of rivers and lakes scattered over a heavily wooMed land. We have never had it explained but there is no doubt, of this the perfect time to view scenery of any kind is at sunset, not at sunrise or when the sun is well up in the sky. There is a softness and depth of beauty not reached at any other time. As the darkness increased, the lights of Dellingham came out along the shore line far to the east, liko a sparkling set-piece of jewels and far off in the haze in the other flashed on and off, either an airway beacon or more likely a light-house, off the shore of Vancouver Island. There were others enjoying the view, as we climbed up. One group of three ladies had an aged cocker spaniel dog, that resented our intrusion for lie growled ominously and yapped also. "Don't be rude, Major, don't be rude" eluded the more elderly of tho three in a very Knplish voice. We don't believe the pup was disturbed by us, no doubt the view was affecting him, particularly tho full moon, which was rapidly changing from a lemon yellow to a deep mellow, gold. That moon was enough to stir any dog's emotions. Wo wouldn't recommend the trip down in the dark to any one nervously inclined. The road is steep, twisty, and there arc many sharp turns, free from all obstructions, where the tempta tion to get another view, is hard to resist, but if you are at the wheel better be. Tho CCC boys have just started to place stone and log railings along the curves, tho journey in the dark will be much more enjoyable when this has been done. . . One marvels that so few of these beautiful wooded islands are inhabited, but the answer of course is the two or three hour boat trip from the mainland. There are so many attractive places in this Puget Sound country which can be reached by motor, and time is such nn important factor in modern life. However as the population of this northwest increases, travel by air and hydro-piano become more common, no doubt summer homes and summer resorts, will in time be scattered all over these islands, which will be rather a pity, when one comes to think of it. The hotels on Oreas Island interested us they are so early 90, in short so simple, unassuming and unchanged. The food was good at the hotel whero we stayed, the landlady extremely nice and accommodating, but we were placed in a cottage, with out, heat, light (except kerosene lamps) or running water nor did the windows have screens, a fact long ago discovered by the native mosquitoes. When we came to pay our bill however, the rate was $3 per day for everything food, lodging and a pail of hot water on tho front stoop, left by the boy in the early morning. What are a few mosquito bites, when one can eat threo meals a day, sleep in a comfortable bed, and enjoy un equalled scenery, for three dollars per diem. It broke our budget balancing heart to leave I R. W. R. (Continued from Page One) and not without cause.

THE RIGHT AND WRONG WAY TO BREATHE Schafer, who devised and gave to the world the prone -pressure method, of artificial respiration, which Is now universally employed in resuscitation, described the method In the Jour. A. M. A. in 1908 (51.801). He Included two pic turei, which show the proper position of the subject's arms. The Amer loan Red Cross and numerous other o r g a n I z a- tlona teach a wrong . method. The Boy Scouts are generally taught the wrong method. In the correct method both of the subjects arm? are extended well above the head, palms on the ground. This position la better than the position taught by the organisations mentioned, because it not only gets the subject's arms out of the operator's way but It places the subject's thorax In the position most favorable for Inspiration, chat Is, it raises the ribs and expands the ohest, and this Insures a greater flow of air Into the lungs when the opera tor releases pressure and the thorax elaatlcally expands, Show me a Red Cross representative, a Boy Scout ex ecutive, a doctor, a life saver or any body else who can offer a sound reas on for placing one of the subject's arms under the head.

It's reputed to be where she wrote the "My candle burns at both ends" clas sic and much that was included In Figs and Thistles." The number of the house Is 15 and what looks to be a front door Is a sham. The real entrance Is the rear door by the way of Cherry Lane Garden. The structure Is of brick, three stories high and Just nine feet six Inches wide. It was niched In an alley that once tumbled from Bedford street to the garden. Despite the size it has a doll house charm and some of the greatest figures In literature have been visitors. There are fireplaces in every room and a skylit studio on the top floor Is where Miss Mlllay courted the muse. Among the furniture only the beds are regular sire.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS YOU must have noticed that Ore gon Is to get 93,038,643 for high way work and (2,334,304 for grade crossing eliminations a total of a little more than five and, a third millions. The money Is to coma from the federal government, where most 01 the money comes from these days, W1 E are grateful, of course, for tne money, and wa can use It good advantage. We stilt need some more roads, and we need quite' badly to improve a lot of the roads we already have. And we need grade crossing elimi nations every fatal accident at 1 railroad crossing gives testimony to that. If the federal government going to spend money like a drunken sailor, It can spend it In no better way than on roads, which will be 01 permanent value. UT one can't help remembering that this highway money is only a drop In the bucket. When one con aiders Bonneville, and the relief load and all the vast sums that cities and counties all over the state are hoping to get he Is forced to realise that the total will be sizeable total. And Oregon la only one of states. centuries people were taught believe that If they, or their governments, spent persistently more money than waa taken In bank ruptcy was Inevitable. So It Is in teresting to take a look at what Ore- gon CONTRIBUTES to the federal government lh return for what she receives. A table Just Issued by the treasury department at Washington give the figures for 1935 the fiscal year 1935, that Is, which ended on June 30. N the fiscal year of 1935, Oregon . contributed In taxes to the 1 tlonal government a total of $9,074,- 309.73. That is only about a third more than It Is to get back In one lump for highways and grade elimi nations. We're certainly getting a good bar gain, and probably we should follow the old advice about not looking gift horse In the mouth. But there Is the gnawing fear that spending persistently more than Is taken means bankruptcy. Oregon Is a part of the United States and If the United States goes bankrupt so will Oregon. THERE are some Interesting facts about Oregon's tax contribution to the federal government. Income taxes amounted to 92,625, 236.61. of which 1,293.013.38 was paid by corporations and $1,333,234.23 by Individuals. Miscellaneous Inter nal revenue taxes amounted to $2, 426,352.59, or almost as much as Income taxes. B UT here comes the real surprise: paid to the federal government by citizens of the state of Oregon amounted to $4,022,730.53, or almost HALF of Oregon's total tax contribu tion to the federal government. This agricultural adjustment tax program has teeth In It. W HILE we are on this subject 01 spending, here is just one more set of figures: In the first 124 years of Its exist ence, from President Washington to President Taft, the government of the United States spent a total 01 $24,531,845,000. Expenditures of the Roosevelt ad ministration actual for 1934 and estimated for 1935 and 1936; three years altogether are expected to be $24,306,653,000. THAT Is to say, we're spending in THREE years almost exactly as much as we spent In our first 134 years. We're going some, arent wev Where we are going, nobody knows.
