Edith Tozier Wetherred. of the Man
Association of Oregon,
stopped off in Hood River on Monday,
enroute from Portland to Pendleton,
for another conference with Manager
RaVlin relative to the MADE in Ore
gon" Day at the Chautsuqua. She
stated that fully twenty manufacturers
have already signifed their intentions
of coming up for that day and night,
while several others, with their fami-
lies, are planning to spend several days
at the encampment.
Those who are going to the Chautsu-
qua this year prepared to get their own
meals will find the Chautauqua Delicat-
essen a great convenience. Supplies of
all kinds will be carried here. including
fresh butter, eggs, bread, fruits, veg
milk, smoked meats, etc.
Coffee and sandwiches will also be
served here from pm. until after the
dancing pavilion closes.
Except on the night of the Chautau-
qua Ball it is planned to close the out
door ball room at one o'clock. The pa
Villion is located far enough away from
the main encampment so that dancing
at that late hour will not disturb any
one. 1t is not deemed advisable TO run
the electric light plant later than one
thirty, which will give the late dancers
time to get refreshments and go to
their camps before the lights go out.
Or the night of the Chautauqua Ball
ice cream and punches will be served
in the historic log cabin adjacent to
the outdoor ball room. This is so COM
pletely hidden in the forest that but
few of those who attended last years
stumbled upon it. 1t was
built by an old prospeetor and trapper.
by the name of Abe Buchanan, who is
reputed to have been one of the first
white men to set foot on the northern
slope of Mount Hood The earliest
maps of the country indicate the pres
ont I auo Da1o GnrSuoo nc D,,ohanan
Springs. in honor of the original dis
coverer.
The cabin is still in a pretty fair
state of preservation and should prove
of considerable interest.
There are many other points of early
day interest in the country in the vi
cinity of the Lava Beds. reached by
easy and well defined trails. Trampng
to these points, and others more re-
mote. will be the morning attractions
for the campers.
On Thursday morning of the encamp-
ment a plan is on foot to organize a
party to go to Cloud Cap Inn. A por-
tion of the trip will be made by auto
mobile and the balance on foot. The
trout streams within striking distance
OF the Chautauqua grounds are said 10
be affording excellent sport this sea
son.
The theatrical programs for the last
three nights of the chautauqua have
been whipped into shape, and show an
array of talent that gives promise of
many good things. The Upper Valley
night has been changed from Tuesday
to Thursday night. The Upper Valley
players will produce their comedy sue
cess, "a Box of Monkeys" and an
olio of vaudeville numbers, exclusively
by Upper Valley people. Those who
will participate in the comedy are as
follows: Miss Leura Miller, Miss
Blanche +. Shahsn, Mrs. Chas. |.
