When old Peter French, the founder and settler of French glen and the meadows ' and marshes of the Blitzen river val- ley, ran the store way back when, the hooks bore a heavier load. Thev sav the customers had to duck and stoop to make their way past the saddles..the ropes, the buggy wheels and whatnot suspended from the ceiling. Wes Prank, the present pro prietor and postmaster, has left tne nooks where they were, though he displays merchandise on proper shelves. "People keep asking about them and they make something to talk about, said Wes. We were in Frenchglen, some 65 miles south of Burns, on one leg of an Oregon State Mo tor association The Oregonian liiotoriog.

WIND BLOWS STRONG tt.u, til (U.PJ When the wind gets going in Illinois it really blows. A plane ku University of Illinois airport here for Chicago during a high wind. It arrived 39 minutes la ter. Without a tail wina, ui flight takes about 55 minutes. John Day foiill beds, many only a few hundrad yards from th sida of th highway and within elaar tUw, an world famous for their archeological findings. Intriguing geological formations, above: are beautifully colored and wiardly shaptd. French and the main seat of his great P ranch, was a turnaround point on an excursion through the great "beef bowl" of central Oregon. All the way south, the snow covered Steens mountains, ris ing a mile or so above the mean level of the central Oregon pla teau, were a backdrop. This is country fishermen know, for the mountain streams and lakes are well populated. The old frame Frenchglen hotel is a headquarters for anglers. This season it is under new management, Mr. and Mrs. Ken neth L. Proitt, who used to live at Grants Pass. After Frenchglen and a look at Pete French's chimney and a regret that the great round barn, whose outer circuit served as a winter hippodrome for breaking horses, is no longer standing, we lickety-s p I i 1 1 e d back to Burns in time for a late lunch. Burns is a cow town and a lumber town and of itself isn't much to see, but stick around just a little while and you'll find yourself talking to some leathery faced cowman who could have stepped right out of the pages of a western novel. Here at breakfast we had run into Lew Willard. Iowa-born. who swears there's no place in the world like the country around Burns the sagy range land and the alfalfa meadows watered by the Silvies river. He's a horn on the range man, for sure. The hurried traveler, moving across the state on U. S. 20, can't but wonder how it hap pens that at Hines, . hard by Burns, is a ereat lumber mill. one of the largest in the state. The answer is on the road from Burns to John Day, as you climb Into the Blue mountains1 and their forests of pine. You pass through an exten-, sion of the Malheur national! forest as you go up from Burns i and then into another of thai green irrigated valleys. Off the '. road a way is Silvies. The Silvies river was roaring ; as we passed through. It had; already put much of the land I around Burns awash. The prom-1 ise of the heavy snows thati caused It was for a green sum-' mer, and rich, heavier grass for the cattle. Just before Canyon creek i pours Into the John Day river1 lies Canyon City. Before you I come to it you spot along the ' canyon slopes the diggings and now and then a time-resisting' section of miner's flumes thati once made Canyon City a right- ful claimant of the second word'1 in its name. It was a roaring mining town when there was still gold in' them thar hills, but the veins and the pockets played out, and Canyon City is now politically a county seat and economically only an adjunct of thriving, ' bustling John Day a mile away. John Day, junction point of U. S. highways 395 and 26, is a trading center for a rich cattle country. It Is an In-between place on the road from Pendle ton to Burns or on U. S. 26, the east-west route increasingly traveled since the stretch over the Ochoco mountains was made modern high speed highway last year. Still more Improvements are in the works or in the books for the east-west highway and John Day Is set to tell more and more tourists and travelers of the beauties and riches of the val ley from which it takes its name.
