Local ard Portland citizens driving over the Musier bill rade last week lay claim to the discovery of the Wing fot'l of automobile drivers. "Kn route to The lalles," savs V. J. White, traveling salesman for a lVrtlanti paper house, "1 was winding around the sharp turns of the glade, when 1 heard a violent rattling and looking across a ravine beheld a Ford truck fairly hurtling down the decline. It naturally 6truck me that something was the matter with the driver's breaks. The road w as narrow, and w ith my hair on end 1 pulled off to the edge of the ri ad, overlooking a deep canyon, my outside w heels at the very jump off. The truck driver didn't slow up in the least. He scraped the bank, took tiff one of my hubcaps and pro ceeded on his downward way. Ac companied by a girl, he was tnuling serenely. 1 realized that the trouble was not w ith his car but in the driver's head, an-1 1 am glad 1 didn't have a gun, for 1 would have been tempted to join the brotherhood of fool-killers. "1 had just passed several cars in trouble below me, some of them in very narrow places. I expected to hear of trouble for them. Instead 1 learned on the arrival of one of them at The Kalles, that the truck driver, in order to avcid the car, had jammed his own machine into the bank, barely missing a hasty descent in to the can yon." The alleged reckless driver came to i Hood River for help. He reported at a local garage that he had been forced j to hit the bank in order to avoid the . machine of a man, out of gasoline.

Woodruff, New York district sides manager of the Associa tion, w ho is now on a tour of European markets, writes the organization that conveniences of travel, notable before the war, are lacking in England today. Mr. Woodruff says that English farni lies of means, as the war took away their servants for service and war work, moved into the hotels. As a re sult hosteleries are crowded with permanent dwellers. Mr. Woodruff de dares that hotel rooms are exorbitant and ditlHult to obtain at any price. Transportation service by taxicab, for merly the best in the world, is now al most impossible. Mr. Woodruff, says that the govern ment is taking a hand in the situation 'and is demanding that hotel dweller return to their own homes. Since the opening of the Columb'a Highway there has been a subseriuert increase of tnufists and vacationists ,r, the Hood River valley and a grown g appreciation of the valley's scenic as sets and vacation possibilities. In re sii'ns to the demand that has antu for an increase in the resort accommo dations of the valley, Hoerlein Rro. . have ojiened for patronage their con -modious new home, recently eomplett i and built with this end in view. The Hoeilein ranch is ituated;n one of the moe-t charming and attractive spots in the valley, but six miles from town and only a short distance from a trunk highway, yet by virtue of its lo cation, is admirably secluded on the bench land and wooded hills of Hood river gorge, commanding a superb view of its rugged, forested depths, and of the valley orchards and sur rounding mountain ranges. The pan - rama of mountains, forests and orch ards, interspersed with clumps of woodland, is unsurpassed. The ranch embraces a tract of "5 acres, borderu.g the river and extending to the crest of the gorge by a series of benches and wooded hillsides. As about 4'i acres consist of hillsides, the visitor tinds the refreshing contact with material woodland close at hand and can also enjoy the seclusion in the cool depths of the gorge where the river rushes roaring and tumbling on its way. For those who have the inclination, there is fishing or there is the opportunity for pleasant walks to the river or about the place, made jiossible by roads and trails. The interesting feature of the ranch is the rustic, commodious home located on a promontory in a natural court of pines that stand tall and silently sym bolic of what Hood River forests once were like, graciously lending beauty and charm as thanks for their survival. The home is of rustic structure of massive proportions, yet fitting grace fully into its setting beneath the lofty pines. A fireplace chimney of rough field stones adds to the idea of rugged massiveness. Great beams and posts were utilized in the construction of the porches. The long, steep pitch of roof and w ide eaves are suggestive of Sw iss architecture, which fits aptly to the countryside surrounding. The ground floor dimensions are 15.x ill) feet. The first floor is given entire ly to the living room, kitchen and porches. The large living room in cludes a sun room an I a library an I music room. The son room separates two roomy, cozv porches and French doors open to either porch. From the many casement and plate windows there is visible practically the entile valley. A feature of the sun room it the large set of casement w indows, to hinged and operated on a track fs to allow of a complete opening affording a magnificent view. The rough stone fireplace cliiinis a great part of one end of the big living room. Into the stone work are set panels of concrete into which are im bedded Indian axes, arrow heads am; spear points, quite a few of these hav ing been found on the place. The beamed ceiling and panelled walls, fin ished in a pleasing contrast of brown stain and natural finish conveys again the rustic ideas carried out On tht second and third floors there are nine bed rooms, four of which have individ ual sleeping porches. In addition to room accommodation? there will be walled and floored tents. Parties w ill have the privilege of mak ing reservations for Sunday dinners. Parties desiring vacation in the coun try, where there is seclusion and nat ural surroundings close at hand, will surely appreciate a Bojourn here. TAUB PRAISES LO CAL ORCIIARDISTS Louis Tnub, of New York city, who has won the reputation of being the largest exclusive boxed apple dealer in the world, was the guest of Hood Riv er shippers and growers last week. On his first tour of the Northwest, he de clares that he has never seen healthier orchards than those of Oregcn. "The care that your growers give their trees," said Mr. Taub," is an in centive to the marketer to push the product." Mr. Taub, who accompanied C. W. McCullagh for a tour to Portland over the Highway, says the Idaho apple crop, although prunes have been killed, has not been as seriously affected by frosts as was recently reported. Having received the endorsement of the county court, the Commercial club ami the Hood River County Game Pro tective Association, a committee ap pointed ty the city council will priveed to improve a tract of land just acr s hood river from town for the free use of motor tourists visiting here this simmer. The use of the land was donated as an automobile park by Chas. T. Early. Funds for the im- rovement of the property w ill be famished jointly by the city and county. ' . The park committee is composed of E. O. blanchar, Leslie Butler and W. T. Price. The Glacier office carries Butter paper.

RENEWED TESTIMONY Wild Flowers are Appealing The large areas of rhododendrons now in bloom on the upper West Fork are declared especially attractive by motorists who have traveled through the Dee district recently. While the trunk line road from Odell to Dee is rough in spots, the highways of the Dee orchard district are excellent. By next season the rhododendron country vvill likely be the goal of numerous motorists. With funds provided by the I count u' court A imhlic floltscrit-ittun und the forestry service a road is now be ing opened to Lost Lake, one of the most appealing of Cascade retreats. Attracted by the variety-of scenery in Skamania and Klickitat counties, Washington, numerous local motorists spend the week ends motoring to Glen wood, Husum and Lost Lake. The Washington highways are said to he in excellent condition. Bv making an early start from Portland motorists may take the Columbia Highway and, enssing by local ferry, easily visit the scenic points of Klickitat counties in a day, it is said.
