Editor Glacier: 1 have just finished reading an editorial in your issue of September 11, entitled "Lost Lake Hoad." In the past two years I have read several editorials on that subject, and news articles, and at one time, 1 recall, it looked as though your efforts were to be crowned with success. Not boastfully, but in order to qual ify in your estimation, for an opinion, I will state that I have seen most of the beauty spots of the earth, insofar as mountain and lake scenery is con cerned. 1 have traveled through the mountains of Japan, and there is much beautiful scenery there. 1 have been in some of the coast cities of China, in cluding Hongkong. 1 have visited in and around Jerusalem, Aden, Cairo, and have, of course, seen the Nile. I have climbed Vesuvius, and wit nessed some of the pretty -seenery in and around Naples, ;Rome, Venice and Milan. The Alps are beautiful, as are also the Italian and Swiss lake dis tricts, Lake Como and Ltike Lucerne, and the picturesque Swiss mountains. 1 have "excursioned" a hundred miles on the Rhine, traveled by rail through England, ana ridden in tallv-lio through some of Scotland's mountain and lake districts, including Loch Lom ond and Loch Katrine, made more fa mous by Sir Walter Scott. 1 have lived in the Philippines 12 years and have hiked over the moutains of sev eral islands. I have lived in Baguio, the wonderful summer capital in the mountains of Benguet, P. ' I. , I have traveled through the majority of the states in the "good old U. S. A." I could qualify further if you desired and space permitted, but we'll let it go at that. Having seen some msny of the principale cities of the world, I will put myself on record by stating that I regard Portland as one of the most beauftiul cities on the face of the globe not only beautiful, but, next to New York City, the most bigoted. New York state and Oregon are to thorn nothing but a suburb, a vast rural dis trict. 1 have lived in Portland and the Hood Hiver valley, and 1 feel sorry for Portland. She overlooked a beautiful bet when she located in that misty, murky lowland instesd of along the palisades of the Columbia where Hood Kiver town now sits serene but that s getting poetical, and away from the main point. 1 have ridden up the Columbia on the Bailey Gatzert, and, britlly speaking, for scenery the Columbia haB the Nile, Yang-Bte-kiang, the Jordon, Tiber, Seine, Rhine, Thames or Hudson, "skinned a mile." tot grandeur of scenery, grandeur, mark you, the mountains, forests and snow capped peaks of Oregon surpass them all, and say this without desire or intention to exaggerate. 1 have hiked from .Dee. n the Hood Kiver valley, up to Lost Lake and return in a sinlca day, and while this lake is beautiful, a valuable asset with its stage settings, to be candid and fair to other lake districts, I should say, In my opinion, there are more beautiful lakes in Italy, Switzer land and Scotland, with Switzerland in the lead And now to the main point. About that Lost Lake road, from Portland to Hood Kiver, those Portland ostriches certainly have their heads in the sand I have heretofore assumed that the road was to run through the Bull Run reserve, which might pcnibly tend to contaminate the city water supply But in your issue above referred to it is Btnted, "the proposed highway does not pass through the watershed of Bull Kun lake ana there is no eartniy rea son why tne nignway snouia not ue constructed." ' Of the many memorable days in my "vagabond" career, the trip J made from Dee to Lost Lake stands out in bold relief in my memory. The grand eur of the scenery through the forest reserve, the majestic hrs, the decora thins, excels anything 1 have ever wit nessed. If the scenery is as beautiful on the Portland side of Lost Lake as it is on the Hood River side, Portland, by its obstinacy, is depriving the world of one of the most wonderful scenic high ways imaginable. Even if it did run through the Bull Run reserve, contam ination could be prevented oy legisla tion. in tny travels I have, as a mat ter of course, seen a great many valleys. I wish to add that all things' considered, scenery, climate and nat ural resource development, I have seen no valley that will compare equally with Hood Kiver. I might expatiate at length on this Ml ood River subject on the relative or compara tive merits of other features and cum munities, of Fujiama, Japan, and Nikko; of Mount Mayon, 1. I., the most perfect cone ; of the Trossaehs, in Scotland and it might or might not interest you. Hut 1 simply want to add my opinion to the believe which seems to exist in Hood River, and that is that the road from Hood Hiver to Portland should be built, and your gov ernor should see to it that it is done without further delay. Very truly yours, C. 1!. Cumpton. Thanksgiving at (he Old Home The old farm house by the road, With vim s running up to the eaves, Where the summer long there were bursts of song. And a flutter of wings in the leaves; Oh, the old farm house was merry In the days that used to be, When the boys and gitls, with their sunny curls, Were close to Mother's knee. But the old farm house by the road Is lonely now and still, For Robin is dead, and Mary is wed, And Harry must bide on the hill ; Father is gray and silent, And Mother's foot is slow. I And you hear the clock, with its faint I Lcktock s ou cuu,d n()l '(n8 ago. The old farm house by the road From the swift river rushing by. 1 watch it stand in the quiet land, Under the quiet sky, From the time of the golden duisics To the hour of the fulling leaves, Prom the time of seed to the waving mead, And the Hiifh of the ripened sheaves, The old farm house by the road When I pane(i it yestere'tn, Sudden and sweot it laughed to greet, My eyes with a dazzling sheen. There were lamps in the twinkling windows, I knew as I rattled past, That the fire was bright on the henrth alight. And the children home at lust. To the old farm house by the road Mad come lhanksgiving any. And the wintry air, if they felt it there, Had the tender warmth of May. The Father's tongue was loosened, And Mother s laugh was clear, For the chrism of love was poured hove The home in the waning year. The old farm house hy the road; Oh, Mother, old and gray, Honest and true they return to you. The children who went away. And Jay, v ho is orf in the army, And Walter, afar in the sea, Never forget the tanks they were set At home by the Mother's knee. From old farm home by the roRd The strength of our land is brought, Paying their way from day to day. Simple and pure in thought. The chord of a grand Thanksgiving From a home like this ascends To the glory of One beyond the sun. Whose kingdom never ends. H. L. Dean. Saved Ills Foot II. r.

It is true that some vears ago a very belligerent gentleman was credited with tears because there were no more worlds to conquer, and that since his day sueh incidents as the discovery of North and South Amercia, and other tilsces, have transpired, llowveer, it looks as though the geographers real ly were right this time, for however much we explore the little known wilds of Africa, South America, Asia and Australia, our increasing knowledge of those places cunnot enlarge the boun dary line thut sepuratcs the lund from the sea. Jules Verne was a scientific man, and many regard his fiction stories of sub marine and aerial flight which at the time they were published seemed wild dreams is a serious prediction of what he believed would be accomplished. As a matter of fact he did live to see the submarine an accepted arm of two navies, and the Wrights were well ad vanced toward success before he died. There remains hia "Trip to the Moon" which seems absolutely impossible or accomplishment. Nevertheless there are scientific men who are to reach out into space and chart a pathway to other worlds. One of these, M. Ernest Archdeacon, who ranks amongthe fore most authorities in France on aviation, diets our present aviation mrchines, which at best could not encircle the earth in less than eight days, will be abandoned for air craft which will gir dle the globe in fid minutes. "All the peoples of the earth will then form a sola and sincle nation." Man, insurable in his ambition, is contemnlutina interplanetary flight and M. Ksnault J'elterie believes tne vehicle will bo a self propelled rocket (Verne again) with a speed of seven miles a second, which is estimated to bi suiliripnt velocity to carrv tho pro jectile beovnd the none of terrestrial attrsetioir. At this rate the moon would be reached in less than ten hours assuming, of course, the vehicle was not melted lone before by the heat generated in its terrific flight. Radium is suggested as a possible motive power. The idea of interplanetary flight, from our present viewpoint seems of course impossible. However, the submarine was 4(10 years in devel niiino.
