scattered about other Brazilian ports.
with two exceptions all these ships are

Umatilla isn't a large county but
It is a rich country-rich in wheat

and timber, and richest of all in the
character of its citizenship. Its area
is 3I73 square miles, which is less
than a third of the area of either NAL

generations is a strain of Christianity

dian is intense in his devotion when
once his religious enthusiasm Is ar

Old story Has New Significance.
! The story of the lives of Marcus
Whitman and his noble wife. of their
devotion. sacrifice and martyrdom,
has been told and retold since that
fatal night in November 1S47, when
the thirst for blood drove the Cay
uses to chop to pieces the first mis-
sionary, his family and his helpers
But the story has a new significance,
a sweeter and deeper rhythm, no.
bier purpose, a broader scope, as one
listens to the earnest pleading. the
songs of hope and devotion, the soul
stirring prayers of the red men now
with white people journeying to the
same eternal end, whose first lessons
in faith. in hope. and in Christian liv-
ing were learned at the dim burning

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1917-09-22

Fred Lockley, who writes "TraveI
Stories of the Northwest" for the
oregon Journal, in the edition of
September IA, had the following to
say of Pendleton and Umatilla coun-
ty:
Probably no other town of it's size
in all the United States is so well
known as Pendleton Its citizens
love to speak of 1t as the biggest lit
tie city of It's size in all the west. I
lived there for several years. so
speak as n Pendeltonian as well as
an Oregonian and a westerner when
/ say that Pendleton hs something
that most communities lack, and that
is a spirit of team work. a loyalty to
their home town. that transcends self
interest, a civic spirit that inspires
its citizens to work In season and
out Of season for the upbuilding Of
Pendleton, Eastern oregon and the
west. Pendleton has n dig -down-in'

deals so little in square miles that
areas are hard to grasp. One can
| get a better idea of the size of "Ora-
gon's banner wheat county" the
bread basket of the Inland Empire,
| by comparing 1t with the size OF 9TH
er well known places. 1t is nearly
three times the size of Rhode Island.
You could fence up 237O square miles
of it's area and you would have
ranch as large az the state of Della
ware; run a barb wire fence around
436 square miles more and you would
have the canal zzone; fence up 13h
square miles to represent the West
Indies cut off a pasture of II square
miles to stand for Samoa; put 20
more square miles under fence for the
District of Columbia then 3S square
miles the area Of San Marina; then
make a corral out of eight square
miles, the size of Monaco, in which
Monte Carlo IS located, and you would
still have 46 square miles left TO use
as a bonanza wheat farm and to hold
the Roundup on.
At Hermiston you are but $50 feet
above the sea. while at Gurdane, in
the southern part Of the county the
altitude is 1850 feet, and at Meacham
in the eastern part of the county, you
have 1851 feet above sea level. You
can find almost any climate you
want in Umatilla county, from the
rainless dry heat at Umatilla to the
ozone laden bracing air on the John
Day watershed at Albee or Lehman
Springs, or the resinous, balsamic,
cool. pure air at Wenaha Springs in
the Blue mountains.
You can find good grouse or deer
hunting around Buck mountain,
Spring, wilks or Round mountain, or
on the slopes of Thimbleberry or
Huckleberry mountain You will find
good fishing in the UmatilIa river and
In such streams as Pine. Birch, Cam
as, Bridge, Gable, Couse, Buck and
Shimmie creeks.
You will find a wide variety OF
scenery ranging from the sage brush
plains around Umatilla and Echo to
the rolling wheat fields of Athena,
Helix and the Indian reservation, and
on to the foothills and frosted slopes
of the Blue mountains.
You will find plenty of life, color
and interest in visiting the Umatilla
Indians on their reservation near
big sheep ranches about Pilot Rock
or the cattle ranches in Camas prairie
For two or three days each year
you may meet the fruitraisers OF MIL
ton and Freewater, the wheat raisers
of Weston, Adams and Helix, the ir-
rigation farmers from the Umatilla
reclamation project at Her1niston. the
sheepmen of Pilot Rock and Echo,
the stockmen of Ukiah, Albee and
Gurdane anchers and cowboys
heepherders and Indians, business
men and strangers at the Roundup
at Pendleton.
This is the one big event OF the
year. 1t is unique and distinctive. No
written words can describe the dash
and go. the thrill and zest of this pic
ture of the old west. 1t is history In
action 1t brings back the vanished
west, the heroic days of the old from
tier. and makes them live again. II
is worth coming across the continent
to witness.
