ODELL MAN ON
TRIP TO FALLS

By Roswell Shelley.
Odell, East Hood River Valley, May
9.-It was our pleasure to spend last
Sunday at the Falls, wife and | being
guests of W. Ross Winans and wife.
Mr.. Winans entertained us hospita-
bly,, taking pains to show US over the
grounds, about the home and took
us to his Happy Hunting Grounds"
park, which lies three-quarters Of
mile up the river from the bridge,
and on the west bank of the West Fork
of Hood river.
Nature has been lavish there and
the name defining the Indian meaning
of heaven il an expressive and appre-
ciative one. Once there you find a
beautiful natural park covering five
acres lying level and reaching from
bluff almost perpendicular rising 30
feet or more and oval shaped, down
to the waters edge, fringed with
pebbly beach. The river here, by
means of shrap bend, meets the bluff
a short distance below, forming sort
of an amphitheater. There one Is
seemingly shut off from the world, for
across the river Is an overhanging
perpendicular bluff, rockribbed and
forbidding,
This beautiful and secluded spot
IL entirely unknown to the visitor at
the Falls, there being only trail
laeding to it. Here is the spot where
Mr.. Winans proposes to celebrate the
4th Of July, and he assures us that
he will grade wagon road from the
bridge to the park before the 4th and
dedicate the place to the public In
the future, on the condition that no
timber be cut and everything about
the grounds be preserved In its natur-
al state.
To grade this road and to beautify
the grounds will require quite an out
lay Of money, but we are assured 1t
will be done; surely the public will
appreciate 1t.
Mr.. Winans Is the owner Of 1900
acres of land in a body there, and
when his present plans are carried out
he will be in position to make bar
rel of money and the public will be
assured Of both pleasure and recerea-
tion as reward for trip there.

he will be getting his berries by he

One of the many features of his plans
is lake In easy reach of his house,
which can be easily and cheaply made
by throwing up short levee. When
done he proposes to stock 1t with fish
and have boats for pleasure seekers,
sand the beaches and have famous
bathing place. This lake will be fed
from crystal springs from the east, so
that in winter fine quality Of ice can
be cut from the lake and stored for
summer use. In addition to this it
will prove an excellent blace for the
fellow who is safe ON skates.
Another feature is that a dam across
the river in order to get power for
manufacturing purposes When all
these of Mr.. Winans' contemplated
plans are worked out, truly the Falls
and the "Happy Hunting Grounds"
park will become a popular and pleas
ant resort. And when this magnih-
cent water powre is harnessed by cleo
tricity, thousands Of spindles will be
put In motion. Then Winans will
no longer be called the dreamer that
he is accused Of being today. For
then his fondest dreams will be real
tized while some Of the rest of the fel
lows will still be asleep and perhars
nothing short of Gapriels' horn will
wake them.
When the larger Hood River valley
is developed to one half its capacity
it will astonish the Oldest inhabitant.
Mr.. Winans evidently built better
than he knew when he got what he
calls the key to the valley. At the
end of Is years residence at this ro-
mantle spot, Mr.. Winans is yet n
young man, and as full of hope and
vigor as most men 20 years younger.
He is devoted to natures wilds and
hence Is content His large family Of
children are lovers Of the old home
and he is beautifying and making it
an attractive place for them.
His summer hotel will soon be com
pleted which will have "a comfortable
rooms and plenty of ground outside to
pitch tents upon and as we are lean
ing towards outdoor life perhaps tents
will be in demand. He says he will
feed all who come, and when once ad-
vertised, surely they will come, and
when this quiet, restful place Is
found, they who are worn in body or
nerve, will come again.
Another practical matter desire
to speak of. There are hundreds of
tons Of rock already crushed by a
process Of nature lying on the hillside
The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1905-05-11

within easy reach of the new railroad
that can be placed upon the cars at a
nominal figure that will cheaply solve
the problem of good roads in Hood
River valley. The county court, we
think, would do well to look this mat
ter up before taking steps toward pur-
chasing rock crushers
Not much time should be lost if we
celebrate the Fourth at the Falls in a
! becoming manner. Better start the
ball rolling by appointing committees.
/ There should be 5000 to 1000 there on
that day and everybody have good
time.
There will be an ice cream social on
the lawn at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
l.. ID. Boyed on next Friday evening.
The proceeds from the sale of refresh
ments will go for the benefit of the
church. The public are cordially in
yited.
Mr.. Pinkerton of Athena, who last
year bought 40 acres of land from l..
d. Boyed, recently moved his fami-
~ there and they are tenting near
Mr.. Boyed's. Mr.. Pinkerton will re-
turn to Athena to harvest his crop,
but finally improve this land and
make his home here, for he likes Hood
River valley.
Railroad work is progressing.
Rights of way are being secured on a
satisfactory basis. The surveying par
ty is now boarding. at W. 4. Winans
and working south from there.
Last Sunday we met Mr.. and Mrs.
w. s. Gribble of Mount Hood. They
we're out for ride looking over the
valley and seemed to be enjoying life.
The country merchant has the best
of the town merchant when 1t comes
to outdoor life. Mr. Gribble is one
of the successful ones and we give
him the glad hand.
Mount Hood and Odell bese pail
clubs lined up last Sunday at Odell
for game, but owing to the rain
storm the game was not finished.
Mount Hood quit in the lead. What s
the matter with Odell?
The floodgates of heaven we're opened
last Sunday and water was turned on
without money and without price,
and Notwithstanding it closed the
ball game and caused people along
/ the road to seek shelter, it brought
its reward to all growing crops.

the future work the new system even
to greater success.

Claims OF ME. Him and 7" versus tom
Dick and Harry"-What 10 Stage Year:
Hurtig 4 seamon appeared through their
counsel, Leon Lasd, before Supreme Court
Justice Giegerich yesterday to ask for
an injunction restraining two actors, George
L. Bickel and Harry Watson, Jr., from
entering into any contract to perform with
other companies than the one now pla ying
"Me, Him and T. Hurtig Il Seamon claim
that on Oct. II, 1908, Bickel and Watson
bound themselves to play in ME, Him and
1" for two years. with a renewal clause
providing for a six months notice. The
notice was given but the actors, according
to Laski. have declined to renew or even
finish out their contract. Bickel and Wat
son are billed to play shortly in "Tom, Dick
and Harry" under different MANAGEMENT.
David Gerber for the actors. opposed
the motion and set up that the original
contract had been violated in the pro.
visions relating to the billing Of the pair.
Mr.. Gerber also argued that there was a
legal question involved a. to whether q
year In theatrical contract meant twelve
months or Just the theatrical season. II
the latter, he commended, the renewal notice
was not given in time, as 1t was not given
within six months Of the expiration Of the
season.
Decision was reserved.
