-1, . - .. HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1922 MR. AND MRS. BYER- LEE ON UNIQUE TRIP In an interesting letter to home folks, Mr. and Mrs. David Byerlee tell of a reven-day trip up the Congo and Jwapa rivers in the heart of Africa aboard the steamer Orecon. which be longs to the Missions Department of the Disciples of Christ. They declai that the experience was exceedingly interesting as the period was one of low water. At nieht the steamer tied up near native villages, and many were the weird and picturesque eights the missionary couple beheld. "It is truly a land of nakedness,' stated the letter, "the women ware nothing more than cords or beads, The men, however, are garbed loin cloths." One night the passengers aboard the boat saw a herd of giant hippos swim ming down the river to their feeding ground. Another time a huge elephant swam the river just in front of the boat. Shooting crocodiles sunning themselves on sandbars and trees formed sport for the men. One six foot croc was. salvaged and furnished a meal for the native crew. Mr. and Mrs. Byerlee are stationed at Bolenge, where Mr. Byerlee, who was reared in newspaper work in Ore gon, is in charge of a publishing de partment. ' About Eden Park Discovery Hood River, Nov. 24, 1922. Editor Glacier : In your issue of No vember 16 appeared an interview with Gilbert Edgington, giving a list of Parkdale people who claim the honor of having visited Eden Park before the exploring party of the Oregon Nature Lovers Club, the inference being that the club had advanced a false claim to the discovery of the park. May I call to the attention of your readers that we have never at any time claimed to have been the first people in the park? Our claim to discovery lies in having made known to the outside world by various modes of publicity the wonder ful attractions of the park. The fol lowing extract from a letter published in the Portland Telegram, accompany ing an article describing the park, ver ities the above statements. "The enclosed manuscript describes an expedition organized by the Oregon Nature Lovers' Club which resulted in what the writer considers a discovery of the first magnitude. I he region de scribed has no doubt been visited by hunters and a few guides and forest rangers, but so far as the writer knows has not previoualy been reported on from the standpoint of scenery." I have repeatedly made similar state ments in my talks on the subject in Hood River. . It is hoped that this ex planation may quench any smoldering sparks of jealousy that may (till be glowing in the minds of those people who claim priority of physical presence in the park.

My faith was justified during the showing of the Georgia Minstrels, but with high class artists such as the Amer ican Light Opera Company carry, the RIALTO will simply have to play to capacity in order for companies of this kind to show at these prices. In Portland, with a population of over 300,000 people they are showing for seven days in the Audito rium which seats 3500 people at the same money as they are showing in Hood River with slightly over 3000 population and a seating capacity of less than a thousand.
