241 TH1zPoLv1'EcHN1c Main Happy Valley Several miles from Portland is a beautiful valley, a mile in length, which is surrounded by hills that have many large fir trees on them. Looking down into the valley in springtime, you may see many fruit trees blossoming and acres of berry bushes with their new branches, also the green growing gram and clover fields and many pieces of plowed land. There are several roads leading into the valley in which there are about forty houses and barns. A church and school are close to the main road. Leading through the centre of the valley is a small stream of water be- ginning from several springs that flow the year round. Scattered about in the valley are small groves of fir trees and many lovely wild flowers. The valley IS so attractive and beautiful that all who visit there will agree that it has been rightly named Happy Valley. ESTHER BECKER, English 1, Springtime in the Oregon Woods On the way home from school one afternoon, I thought I would see how many of our trees, shrubs and flowers, both wild and cultivated, I could name. So taking a stroll through the yard and up into woods through which I used to go on my way to grade school, I found dogwood, alder, cedar, fir, and maple trees, all in their early spring splendor. The ground was covered with fresh moss, grass and ferns, making the woods most beautiful. Here and there I found scattered, beautiful wild flow- ers, such as trilliums, mayflowers, chickadees or spring queens, and violets, both yellow and blue. As I passed along where the land is a little low I saw the dotted yellow of the skunk cabbage, which is bright and pretty, although it is not so fragrant as other members of the family. As I was in search of trilliums I went up through the woods. I did not expect to find very many as the country has been built up. Nevertheless I found just as many usual. As it was a little early for the trilliums they were smaller and had shorter stems. Later 011 they will be larger and the stems will be longer. I also found the Oregon Grape and wild currant in full bloom. The hazel had shed its bloom and was now ready to set the nuts. The pussy willows had lost the beauty of early spring. The ocean spray, commonly known as white tassel, and mock orange were just beginning to show their heads. On my return I glanced down by the creek a11d saw the giant white ash iilld the beautiful vine maple which guard the swimming-hole. IIELEN Hawkins, English IV.

r w PHE POLYTELHNIC MAID IZS Haystack Rock Many people have seen haystacks, but only a fraction of that number have seen Haystack Rock, that curious mass of once molten rock about three- quarters of a mile from Pacific City, a summer resort on the coast of Oregon. No talented sculptor could have made a nobler form, though Castle Rock would be a more suitable name for this ancient pile. The softly grayed image, in the early morning, when the rosy tinted haze rises from the snowy White- caps surrounding it, stands among the lapping waves the castle of some sea prince might stand behind the foamy gates of a palace court. Numerous schools of small fish, deeming this favorable ground for a game of tag, playfully wind in and out among the sea carved arches of the palatial rocks. Even they, I think, would agree that this is one of the most picturesque scenes of the Pacific Ocean. HELEN BRUCE, English I.
