go rushing through these wonderful
scenes and have no time to look around
the corners and over the edges where
more beautiful scenes lie hidden than
any the open trail reveals
We marvel much at the rich detail
and endless variety of these high fast
nesses of the mountains. One could
never know that there are winding
wales and meandering streams, deep
vistas and enticing distances up here
until he has made the climb. This
whole world aloft is as a closed temple
till we really walk up to the door and
enter into it. Then it opens its spa
cious aisles and let's us into scenes that
are beautiful and delightful 1t also
filings open windows for us through
which we may look out as upon an
other new world. over the cliff above
us to our right pours stream that
overflows from the brim of a pure
lake, and beyond this lake are other
lakes, while beyond the lakes and to
right and left are the snow fields. The
trail leads around the brow of the
gorge into great open meadow be-
tween high opposing ridges. There are
many trees on the slopes and we Won
der at their vigor up here. Although
we feel that we must hurry on we
cannot resist the scene and out comes
the camera for a picture. We are
glad we did it, for it is a beauty. After
crossing the meadow and the stream
and climbing up the northern wall to
pass over the great shoulder OF Vogel-
sang we discover half way up the op-
posite side a beautiful lake, and so
charming is the scene that we take an
other picture.
What a pity that we cannot stay
here and explore these streams and
lakes and mountain ridges! But the
call is so insistent that we shall doubt
less return again and find out some
of the secret things Just over the cliffs
and around the corners. In one short
half day we have scaled the pass. We
should have waited in the last valley,
camped for the night, and used an

for a few days to rest and explore the
region. But Mt. Lyell was before us.
So we were up early the next morn
ing and on the trail at o'clock. Half
a mile above the lake a great creek
comes roaring down from Vogelsang
and we have to ford it. Half mile
farther up the trail turns to the noun
tain, and up we go for Vogelsang peak
and Tuolumne pass. This long climb
is not difficult. There are but few
places where one must stop to breathe.
There are many lovely little stretches
where shrubs and trees make the
mountain beautiful. The noisy streams
pour out from the canyons higher up
where glacial lakes are fed from per-
petual SHOWS.
On this trail we first noted the effect
of altitude upon the trees. The cedars
were just as large at the ground as
in the lower forests. But snow and
wind and the brief growing season
kept them from reaching height of
more than about twenty feet. Often
a great pointed stub of tree would
attract our attention, the height
scarcely more than double the base
diameter, ending in sharp point.
few dropping branches decorate these
fantastic conoids
The dwarf pines appear to the lay
traveller to be of the same species as
those lower down, but weather has
held them in its grip and denied them
the glorious development of their ia
vored brothers. The small trunks,
scarcely more than an inch through,
scraggle close to the ground so that
the weight of the snow does not break
them. These little pines are said to
be very old. But so brief is the season
that their sluggish sap scarce serves
to keep them alive. Every night the
at te. IL ax.1 AIA nd
freezes about them.
Away up in the heights, far above
the domes, the works of ole glaciers
are seen everywhere. Scooped ont hol-
lows, medal and terminal moraines,
show where the ice streams fingered,
long after the domes were free. Many
shining little gem lakes fill the hollows.
Great masses of snow lie under the
SUBMITS, almost glaciers themselves.
Streams pour over the rims of the
hollows where the lakes sparkle, the
water rushing and roaring over in
Vulnerable boulders.
Sounds are different in these soli-
tudes. The rushing water carries
voice quite distinct from it's lowland
cousins. It's language seems to be diff
ferent, too. But its words carry far
and are fresh and sweet Sometimes
they seem sharp and cold, but always
enhancing. From our camp In the
Lyell canyon we could hear the loud
talk of stream that rushes over the
rim of the Kuna crest. 1t has not
learned courtly tones up in the open
waste and the cold. It's lowland
cousins daily along among trees and
grassy banks and islets. 1t is the
free voice of the untamed mountain
eer that wakes the mountain echoes.
The lowland streams are more courtly
in their speech, but they are often
tainted with soil and factory stains.
Either is we'll worth attention, and
after a while will tell many fine things
to the man with patience and interest
enough to learn something of their
language.
Vogelsang is an interesting noun
tain and we mean to spend some time
exploring its streams and lakes and
banks. They will be there for many
years to come. and so we hope to come
back and visit them. 1t is a pity to

the marvellous details of this glorious
mountain. I can fancy now the camp
fire and the brilliant stars and the
musical waters with their friendly
tones like companions talking along
the way, then the tramp tomorrow to
the sources in the great snow fields
farther up.
This is one of the very few things
that NAV be dreamed about without
danger of spelling the realization when
at last we are free to carry out our
desire and visit the scenes. Our
dreams cannot make the mountains
stale This high world is of an order
that the dreams cannot duplicate.
Though it powerfully stimulates the
imagination it holds SO many surprises
for us that we need never fear dls-
appointment. 1t is new world Tor
men. Not only in our personal ex.
perience is it new, but our ancestral
experience has not known anything OF
it. For ages the race has stood long
way off and gazed at the distant
heights and so has known them only
as inaccessible peaks and ridges AT
last we have ventured to approach
them and are admitted into a mag
nificent region of such strange and
surprising forms, so entirely new TO
human experience, that there is no
danger of surfeit or disappointment.
noisy waters we have a dream that is
also reality, not a dream of our fancy,
but a palpable vision of God some
thing that could not be dreamed by
us, so different is it from our ex-
perience, but has all the wonder ana
charm of the most vivid imagination
and is real.
We shall never exhaust the zest OF
the high mountains, for it is new to
oh
strings of our being that sets up all
the vibrations of pleasure and delight.
1t is just the stimulant our age needs,
not only to give momentary pleasure,
but abiding joy. 1t is kind of re-
newing of youth. better than the sani-
tariums for health, than all the cults
for wisdom, than costly palaces for
delight
Beyond the shoulder of Vogelsang is
a great snow field. We pause at its
edge to look out upon the array of
mountain forms. So clear are their
outlines in this matchless purity of air
that the sky line Is drawn in dazzling
brilliancy though it may be many
miles away. The developed films from
our camera, a very ordinary instru-
ment, came out clear and distinct in
every detail. A few hundred feet be-
low us lies Vogelsang lake. fed direct
ly from the snow fields. What is the
charm for US that lies in this gray
blue patch of ice water with the stony
heights all about and the cleaning
banks of snow? Every time that
look at the picture we caught Of 1T
that charm renews it's influence upon
me. The same feelings awake again
as when I saw the reality. 1t is ire
sistible. I shall be back again in those
heights to revel in their charms at first

There NAV be those who do not en-
joy the high mountains. 1t seems to
me that these persons have been urfor-
tunate in their attempts to enjoy them
They have perhaps tried to "do" the
mountains as they "do'' the "conti-
nent." The mountains have never yet
been successfully "done," even by the

MANY LEAGUES
WILL ADVANCE

La Crosse, Wis, Feb. s.--The taking
Of the new census throughout the
country this season will revolutionize
baseball classif1cations, and at least
seventeen leagues are practically GER
tain to advance class, according to a
statement of r. A. Elliott president of
the Minnesota Wisconsin league, who
is regarded as one of the best baseball
authorities in the northwest.
President Elliott bases this declara-
ton upon the enormous increase in
population in certain cities where
league baseball thrives, and the fact
that only the lack of an official record
of this increasing population has kept
many of the organizations back in
the past. Owing to the existence of
rules requiring that the official govern
ment census figures be used as a basis
for league classification the Wisconsin
Illinois and other leagues through this
territory have appealed for a higher
rating in vain and have been forced to
wait until the new census is COM
pleted before the revision is made.
Mr.. Elliott declares his belief that
the connecticut YORK State and North
western leagues, now in Glass b, will
be able to show an aggregate pepula-
ton Of more than a million in their cir
cults and will therefore be advanced to
Glass A. The Virginia, Ohio Pennsyl-
vania, Western association and West
ern Canada are expected to prove
population of between 100000 and 1,
100000, and thereby advance to Glass
B. OF the leagues now in Glass D Mr..
Elliott has it figured out that the Wis
consin- Illinois, Central association,
Minnesota Wisconsin, Ohio State and
Kentucky leagues will be able to show
a population of more than 100000 and
enter Glass c. That all leagues will
take advantage OF the possibility of
higher classification is a forgone con-
clusion. owing to the advantages Of
drafting offered thereby.
