Hood Rivers Most Scenic Spot
, i -- . .
. ..." x
In all Hood River valley or the atate
of Oregon, according to those who have
been to the forest lined body of water,
no place ia more scenic than the region
around Lost Lake, where daily the
everchanging peak of old Mount Hood
ia mirrored in the crystal depths of the
clear cold pools.
In the excitement attendant on the
action of the State Highway Commis
sion in applying for federal funds for
the construction of the Loop, the pro
posed road to Lost Lake has for the
moment been forgotten. Tbe matter,
however, will be kept alive by those
who have visited the lake.
"Tbe atatus of the road makes me
think of a story told on a prominent
Hood River man," aays Judge Derby.
"Tbe eitisen waa back in Indiana, at
tending the funeral of a noted politi
cian. Eulogiea were rendered by a
number of surviving friends. Finally
the spokesman asked if anyone else
would like to say anything.
"Tbe visiting Hood River man
grasped his opportunity. 'I would like,
since no one else baa Anything to say,
to apeak a few worda for Hood River,'
he said.
"And ao, I would like to take thia
opportunity to apeak a few worda for
the wonders the Lost Lake road, when
it is opened, will reveal."
PUBLICITY TO BE
GIVEN LOOP ROAD
A country-wide publicity will be giv
en tbe Columbia River highway and
the proposed Loop road around Mount
Hood, according to a party here Sun
day afternoon and men who toured
Monday along the latter route. Ac
companied by the general passenger
agent of the O.-W. R. A N. Co., Will
iam McMurray, and Mrs. McMurray,
Edward Hungerford, advertising man
ager of the Wells-Fargo Co., spent
Sunday afternoon touring the Hood
River Valley with Leslie Btfller. Mr.
Hungerford was collecting pictures of
the mid-Columbia to be used in his
company's publicity booklets.
Monday morning, accompaned by Mr.
Butler, the following party left by
automobile for Mount Hood Lodge:
Samuel C. Lancaster, builder of the
Columbia highway; E. J. Blanchard,
representative of the United States
Reclamation Service, and H. T. Cowl
ing, official photographer of the re
clamation service. From the Lodge
the men proceeded to Elk Meadows and
other scenic spots along the route of
the proposed Loop, taking photographs
and moving pictures. Moving pictures
of the entire length of the Columbia
highway between ttiis city and Port
land were taken by Mr. Blanchard and
party Sunday.
Expressing unstinted praise of the
scenery of the region the proposed
Loop highway will penetrate, the party
returned here Tuesday morning after a
tour aa far as tilk Meadows. The
moving picture apparatus of Mr. Cow
ling waa taken to Elk Meadows on a
couple of pack ponies. The men were
guided by Homer A. Rogers.
"The pictures we made," said Mr.
Lancaster, "will reveal to the general
public the wonderland around Mount
Hood. In addition to scenes of mag
nificent grandeur, we worked in a pas
toral view of a huge herd of sheep be
ing pastured on one of the great natur
al meadows in the national forest.
The flowers. Mount Hood lilies, lupin
and Indian Paint brushes add gaudy
bits of appealing color.
"Weather conditions were perfect
for our work, and the lights and shad
ows fell just right for Mr. Cowling to
get the best results."
WEDDINGS .

In the presence of a few members of
the family and friends, the wedding of
Miss Grace Ellen Stewart and Anton

Mrs. Lauamann left Tuesday morning

Mr. Lausmann'a beBt man was his
brother, Robert Lausmann. The bride
was accompanied by her sister. Miss
Pearl Stewart.
Mrs. Lausmann is a graduate of the
Hood River high school and of the Ore
gon State Normal at Monmouth. She
recently resigned the position of teach
er in the Frankton district. Mr. Laus
mann is prominent in local lumber cir
cles. He is president of the Hood Riv
er Forest Products Co., which operates
a saw mill on the range west of the
valley.

Dabney, son of Mr. and Mrs. O. P.
Dabney, of this city, have received an
nouncements of his wedding in July to

City.

COUNCIL TURNS DOWN
PARK PROPOSITION
The city council Monday night turned
down the proposition recently made by
J. F. Batchelder to provide a campsite
for touring automobilists, provided the
city would furnish free of charge
water and lights. The councilmen vot
ing on tbe measure, declared that the
finances of tbe municipality, at the
present time, will not permit of the
improvements asked by Mr. Batch
elder. The owner of the wooded acreage
west of town, however, may equip an
automobile camp at his own expense.
In case he does not, tbe city thia fall
will include in its annual budget next
year an appropriation to be used in
renting and purchasing property and
establishing a free site for passing mo
torists. The Batchelder proposal met
with disfavor, since the owner of tbe
land desired to open a restaurant and
small grocery store, and the fear waa
expressed that tbe proposed camp
might be too commercial to appeal to
visitors to the valley.
City Health Officer Edgington re
ported to the council that an analysis
of water taken from the city's supply,
both from the new avstem and from
the old reservoir, the latter used only
during periods of summer months when
irrigation ia necessary, shows the water
free from harmful agencies. The water
is practically pure, according to Dr.
Edgington'a report.
Fred Howe verbally petitioned the
council for permission to install a large
electric light at tbe entrance of the
Howe & lngalls garage on Cascade av
enue. The petition was referred to the
fire and water committee with power
to act.
PARTY CIRCLES THE
PEAK OF MT. HOOD
Pioneers in such jaunts, Hana and
Paul Hoerlein, Ned Crawford, W. B.
Arena and Will Marshall returned Mon
day from a camp at tbe timber line
near Cooper's Spur, from which point
last Sunday they made a complete cir
cuit of the peak of Mount Hood, trav
eling high up on the snowline. The
boya left their mile high camp at 4.30
o clock Sunday morning. They re
turned at 6 o'clock Sunday evening.
"I estimate the distance of our trip
to be approximately 15 miles," aays
Hana Hoerlein. "We crossed every
glacier, and at points met with diffi
culties that for a time seemed impossi
ble to overcome. Saturday night we
built a huge bonfire near Cooper's Spur.
The light of the flames was seen over
all the Upper Valley."
The boys say that they saw a band of
animals high on the snowline that tbey
thought mountain goats or sheep.
"However, I have been told that
there are no wild sheep or goats in this
community, and we must have seen a
band of domestic animals, large herds
of which are pastured in the national
forest, that had wandered onto the
snow," says Mr. Hoerlein. .
Hood River Best, Says Schermerhorn
"Hood River ia the best country for
all around living that I have seen,"
says Ray Shermerhorn, who returned
last week from Idaho, where he and bis
family spent the past winter visiting
relatives. "Idaho ia all right, and I
believe a man by making an invest
ment in the agricultural belt could
make good money there today. But
for climate and money making togeth
er, Hood River is ahead of Idaho."
Mr. Schermerhorn says that many
Hood River apples were shipped into
the Idaho communities the past year.
And he declares that the fruit far sur
passed any of the local product.
Mrs. Schermerhorn is expected to
arrive from Colville in the next week.

During the time of deposition of the

must have been atupid. Thia animal
waa undoubtedly very clumsy also, but
its huge size ana protective armor am

Sixty thousand rainbow trout have
just been placed in Eagle Creek by the
forest service in cooperation with the
state of Oregon. The fish were hauled
in a wagon from the atate hatchery at
Bonneville, and put in the water near
the Eagle Creek camp grounda in Co
lumbia Gorge park.
These camp grounda have become
popular for picnickers and campers
since their establishment by the forest
service. Good fishing la one of tfco at
tractions tbey offer. Located on the
Columbia highway, 44 miles from Port
land, they are easily reached, lbe
hard surface on tbe highway waa com
pleted to the Eagle Creek camping
grounda Saturday night. At present
travel up Eagle Creek ia practically
impossible, but the forest service ia
now building a trail up the creek to
Wahtum lake, which will open a region
of exceptional scenic beauty. When
completed, thia trail will connect with
the Herman creek trail and furnish a
fine hike or pack trip from the Colum
bia highway by way of Herman creek
trail. Thia loop trip covera about 27
miles and offers a variety of attrac
tions to the tourist.
Hood River, Aug. 17, '16.
Editor Glacier: I am really aur
prised that man who has traveled aa
much as your good self had not heard
of tbe wonderful nsh mentioned in
Fins, Furs and Feathers, tbia date's
issue.
This ia perhapa the most remarkable
fish in the world, and the people living
in umaha and uouncii Bluffs, la., an
know the history of this remarkable
fish. It ia evident that you do not, ao
I will relate the story to you.
When General Grenville Dodge waa
building the Union Pacific bridge across
the Missouri river, said river Jwaa full
of Buffalo fish. One evening some of
the men were fishing in the river close
to the work and caught a number of
fish. Tbe General waa watching the
sport, when one of the men hooked an
unusually large fish and had a very
hard fight on his banda landing the
fish. The General waa an interested
spectator and when the.fish waa finally
landed the General noted that it was
an exceptionally fine specimen and of
fered to purchase the fish. But the
man who caught the fish waa a true
snort and gave tbe nsh to tbe General.
who petted the fish a few moments and
returned it to the water amid ithe
shouts of men and screeching of whis
tles. The fish, to show ita apprecia
tion, disported in the water, leaping
into the air and waving ita Una.
From that time on whenever this fish
feels the vibration of a train on the
bridge over the Missouri, it leaps from
the water and wavea ita finnial append
age at the passing train.
You may believe thia or not, but re
member that truth ia SOMETIMES
stranger than FICTION.
Truthfully yours,
J. H. Fredricv.
