SCENERY EXPLOITATION
OF JACKSON COUNTY,
PORTLAND CONFERENCE

II the people of Jackson county
have their way, at least one section
of the state will be prepared for the
horde of tourists expected to visit
the state during the exposition year.
1925. The opening of the rim drive
around Crater lake, the decided i'm
proyement in accommodation at Cra-
ter Lake lodge, and lastly, the visit
of Secretary Falls party, have stim-
ulated the people of that section to
a realization Of what they have to
offer the traveller in the way of scenic
attractions.
A connecting road between Crater
lake and Diamond lake, to be a sec
ton OF the skyline route along the
crest of the Cascades, is being pre-
pared for, the forestry service hav-
ing already given orders for the con-
struction of the section outside the
park boundaries. The national park
service has indicated its willingness
to build from the park line to the
present rim road. This road, in all
probabilities, will be ready for travel
in the spring.
A fifteen-mile stretch OF the Cra-
ter Lake highway has juat been
graded and rocked on a cooperative
basis between state and county. The
county's funds allotted, under the
terms of the authorization of bond

WRITE-UP GIVEN '.PETRIFIED
LADY, OF CRATER LAKE PARK

Anne Shannon Moore, the Oregon
authoress, contributes an article to
! the last Sunday issue OF the Portland
Oregonian, on the Mystery Lady OF
the Woods" known locally as the
"Petrified Lady" and discovers that
this attraction of Crater Lake park
was chiseled by the hands of man.
Telling of a microscopic searcn
of the Lady" the authoress says
"On the main boulder out Of
which the figure is cut, and just in
front of the foreleg, we found what
looked like a date-"1S43." The
"one" was clearly 'discerned, the
-four" and the three" the latter
two being cut in old style figures
and as plain as print. The eight"
was more a matter of conjecture,
parts not being perfect, but the space
was there for the extra figure and
the curves more nearly suggested
an eight" than anything else. Con-
tinuing our search, we found the
letters IN. A. "" repeated twice,
irregularly on the stone, and that
was all.
The above facts were heretofore
unnoticed or unpublished in the
many accounts. Neither Will Steel,
the father of Crater Lake, or Alex
Sparrow, park superintendent had
ever discovered the markings though
they were frequent visitors.
The sculpture is perfect in every
detail, and was chiseled by a genius.
with every proportion of the figure
correct And continuing the article
says:
Finest achievement of all is the
expression OF the entire dropped
figure, that of utter despair All
this in that hard rough stone-so
hard and uninviting that so far.
thank God, no Vandal has been
tempted to leave trace of his pres !
ence. The figure is there-superb,
glorious--in the still dark woods
alone with the great old trees, the
flowers and the birds.
rs 1t Mary at the tomb? Does 1t
commemorate the death Of some
loved person? is body buried
back of that pointing arrow? Did
some noted sculptor express anguish !
OF his own In the granite of the grim
gray hills? These are questions no
one has been able to answer"
In regard to the origin of the sta
tue, the authoress concludes:

in the woods long enough to have
done this remarkable piece Of chis-
