Mr. and Mrs. C A. Bell, who re
turned last week from an automobile
trip to Seattle. Bellingham and other
PuRet Sound points, tell of an interest
ing experience of the road. As they
were bowling along the Pacific High
way, Mrs. Bell driving, they over
hauled a lone pedestrian, a large pack
on his back. They took the wayfarer,
an old man who gave his age as 78,
aboard and proceeded.
Mrs. Bell was growing weary at the
wheel, and progress of the car soon ev
idenced it. The aged passenger, who,
however, appeared stalwart and hale,
finally asked .that he be permitted to
disembark.
"Why, aren't you going on to the
next town" asked Mr. Bell.
"Yes." the old man replied, "but to
be frank with you, I'd rather walk. I
was riding in an automobile once,
when a woman was driving, and we
had a wreck."
The old man was persuaded to keep
his seat, provided Mr. Bell took the
wheel. He was a French-Canadian
and a. logging camp blacksmith.
"When we reached Kalama, " says
Mr. Bell, "he invited us to dine with
him. He proved an excellent host and
a good conversationalist when once the
ice was broken. He declared that he
continued his occupation because he
loved to be busy. That he did not
need funds was evidenced when he
drew forth a huge roll of bills to pay
for the elaborate dinner. The old man
was a Civil war veteran. He was born
at St. John, New Brunswick, near my
own birthplace."
While in Bellingham Mr. and Mrs.
Bell visited Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lar
kin. Mr. Larkin. who is now incharge
of a large cannery at Bellingham, one
of the few on thecoast that has con
tinued uninterrupted operation during
the period of deflation, was formerly
connected with the Hood Kiver Can
ning Co.
Henri Thiele, manager of the Co
lumbia Corge Hotel, responding last
week at a luncheon of the Tuesday
Lunch Club, declared that the hostelry
would be of great financial benefit to
Hood Kiver. He cited direct benefits
that would result' from ranchers in
selling cream and garden product to
the hotel. As an indirect benefit. Mr.
Thiele stated that the hostelry would
bring hundreds of additional tourists
here, all of which would result in much.
good advertising for the fruit com
munity. C. W. McCullagh declared that the
people of Hood River owed to Mr.
Thiele their fullest cooperation. Other
portions of the program, arranged by
and presided over by Rev. Boddy, were :
Vocal foIo, MrB. P, S. Davidson ; violin
solo, C. King Benton ; short address by
Judge Mason, formerly of the Kansas
Supreme Bench, who was the guest of
Leslie Butler. Miss Sara Howes was
accompanist for the solos.
Newspaper Men Call
Two Oregon ex-newspaper men, M.
W. Pettigrew, former publisher of the
Redmond Spokesman, and W. I). Nel
son, until recently owner of the Haines
Record, passed through Hood River
Saturday while on automobile tours.
Mr. Pettigrew, who recently sold his
publication to Douglas Mullarkey, was
returning home with his family from a
vacation at coast resorts. He still
owns'agricultural interests in the cen
tral Oregon country. While here Mr.
Pettigrew called on his old boyhood
friend, W. F. Laraway, whom he knew
in early days in Glenwood, la.
Mr. Nelson was returning home from
a prospecting tour in western Wash
ington. He will leave Haines soon, he
says, for Ridgefield, Wash., where he
will take charge of a newspaper. Mr.
Nelson in 1907 worked on the Glacier.
