THE ROAD CONFERENCES

The recent road conferences cannot
fail TO lead to inestimable good. The
Hood River people have been down tc
Multnomsh county and have seen what
the citizens of the neighboring county
are doing and what they propose TO do.
Portland's most influential citizens
have come here and have seen what we
can offer when the great highway is
completed. These meeting are signif-
cant and important; for they are lead
ing toward the construction of the
Portland Hood River highway. the key
that will open the door of scenic road
construction in the Cascade region.
The ranges of the Cascades west Of
here have caused the only break in a
highway leading from eastern Oregon
to the metropolis along tie Columbia
The survey for the grand route has al
ready begun. and soon the Columbia
river counties will be joined, when this
gap is filled.
1t will be a great day when the road
way is opened. Motor vehicles will
swarm up the gorge and the exclama-
tions of delight Of their occupants will
fill the air. The dream of motorists
paradise will have been realized.
The cliffs, gorges, minaGts and pin
F8aeles, domes and tuTretted formations
along the Columbia gorge are illustra-
tions in grand way by nature of the
wonderfully interesting mythologies of
the Indian. F. H. Balch, author of the
Bridge of the Gods, has already made
them known to the people of the coun-
try. II is, indeed, strange that no great
poet has ever arisen to sing their
praise. or no writer of romantic fiction
has ever portrayed the wild grandeur
1t is true that Joaquin Miller sang of
the Oregon. thus terming the Columbia
river. But such displays of natural
scenic beauty usually rear a soul that
becomes imbued alone with the singing
or telling of the scenes that have sur
rounded him or her since childhood |
days.
In the Northwest there are many of |
the pioneers who can relate the tales
of Indian mythology as told by the In
dians, themselves. E. L. Smith, of
this city. can scan the formations of
the Columbia gorge and tell one tales
as though he were reading from book.
What pleasure it will be to take
lO,rney over the Columbia river boule-
ward in company with a man who can
relate such stories.

HIGH SCH6OL HAS
GREAT POSSIBILITIES

Most promising material was uncov-
Ged in practice game last Friday
night with the Hood River juniors.
Although the high school was on the
shert end of a ID to score, the defeat
was not seriously taken on account of
the frequent shifting of the players
and the trying out of inexperienced
men. which made it impossible to get
consistent team work. Coach Critics
and Capt. Coshow feel very much en-
couraged over the work of their team
and feel contented that the team will
be close contendeys for the Columbia
river championship. This being the
first team the high school has had for
four years much enthusiasm was
shown by the students. The average
weight of the team will probably be
about $50 pounds. The aggregation
will be much strengthened next week
by the addition of a few new men.
The student body expects the support
of the people in general to help the
high school have championship team
and to show some interest. Coach
Colby deserves great deal of credit
for his faithful work with the junior
team and he expects to show The
Dalles juniors royal time on the
gridiron this year.
The lineup was played as follows:

. Estimates Called For

In a circular sent out to the apple
growers of the Hood River valley re
Gently by the Apple Growers Associa-
tlon, the growers were urged to give
revised estimate of the apple crop.
The officers of the Association have
stated that they are receiving a great
many inquiries for carloads of Hood
River apple, from responble buyers at
good price and want this revised esti-
mate at once so they can accept as
many of these good orders as they are
able to fill. If the Association does not
have the revised report at once it may
be necessary to turn down lot of good
orders that will be needed later on. In
the mean time customers will have
bought their supplies from other dis
tricts. This is a matter of the greatest
Importance to the prosperity of the
valley,

All Crops In Valley Exceed Expectations

A careful study of the crop conditions
in the Valley indicate that 1913 is to be
the banner year in the Valley. Many
new barns and apple houses have been
built to accommodate the bumper crops
which will be stored until sold. There
have been number of fires in the Val.
ley this year and ranchers should not
overlook the very important item of In.
