Show I THE SUN. rAGE TWO Another Party Braves Rapids of the Green On Friday evening there arrived inJemum unheralded two sturdy boatmen, one aged but vigorous, the other just in the prime of manhood, robust and strong; eaeh tanned to chestnut brown. A tan received from the direct and reflected rays of the sun as they had rowed for many days on the waters of the Green river, says the Vernal Express of the 20th. Tho older man was Dr. C. G. Plummer, naturalist and scout leader, and the younger man was Alfred Danner, taxedermist and furrier, Ixitb of Salt Lake City. Their first rnneern was for loved ones, for nothing had been heard from them since they had left Green River, Wyo., September 10, at 4:43 p. m., in their sixteen-foo- t imported collapsible rubber boat of German manufacture. After getting in touch by phone with those at home gradually and with diffidence they began to unfold part of their intensely interesting adventure. Their last days ride was twenty-four miles with a stop at the gold dredge. They had melons from the IL II. Rnple ranch at Island Park and water from a spring in the mountainside. During the entire trip they never drank any water from Green River, which the doctor considered unfit for human consumption, without boiling. They report the boat as scratched, scraped and twice punctured but not once overturned. Only a few times did they take in water. They found the n exstranded boat of the not reach to did but attempt pedition, Dr. Plummer stnted he believed it ' it maid now be easily salvaged while the water is low. Of the thirty-thre- e marked rapids in La do re eanvon by the Ralph R. Woolley expedition for the United States geological expedition in 1022, they state at this low water there are fully douhlo that amount. It is the same in Flaming and Split mountain genres. Dr. Plummer, who has made many such trim of adventure in all sections of the United States on all her streams and rivers, states the benuty of Split mountain rivals that of Bryce canyon, jrhich is the same gceological formation. They took pictures of many of the interesting plares gnd scenes. Some of these Dr. Plummer intends using in magazine article to bo published in the near future. He also intends to mge the building of a scenic highway from the Dinosaur monument through 8plit mountain gorge. Isidore canyon and following the river through the Flaming gorge. This, Dr. Plummer says, would make the most beautiful drive in all the world. The cost wonld be tremendous but would be a ' paying investment for the state of Uiih jum) the nation. - In all they traveled more than 250 miles. They saw many wild animals, thirteen mountsin sheep nine in one floek; deer, elk, beaver, eivet eats and many geese and ducks. But the beauty of tho canyons, rapids, wild life, marvelous colors of the rocks will ever make the trip for them one of tho keenest memories. If Dr. Plum' mer'a hopes eorae true then all of the world may see tho beauty, hut not the thrill of riding the many rapids of tho three now more than famous gorges three in such a few miles and aeeessible from the famous Dinosaur monnment, which we hope in the near future will be the Dinosaur Memorial park. but as It was a enrioiis (hey were landing their boat at Jensen, through some mishap, Mr. Laun-o- r was thrown into the water and was wet to his waist the first time he said he had been wet during the trip.

The writer wishes to pay honor to Jack for his true boyish character, when he met his father in the midst of a crowd of eurious strangers as he told how his mother and himself had worried for Daddy, while he was buried in the depths of the three famous gorges of tho Green river. He was a true boy scout and is indeed fortunate to have for a friend, Dr. Plummer, who is president of the Utah State court of honor and also a member of the United States hoy scout commission. Exhibits From Carbon Scenery Brings Praise to Utah Painter Viewing the pictures of tho Utah deserts recently completed by Cornelius Salisbury, instructor in art at West high school, and exhibited during the last fortnight at tho Utah Art studio, one ia reminded of a line in Keats poetry A desert fills our Berings inward span, says Gale Martin in Saturday a Deseret News. For, to his work, Mr. Salisbury has not only brought a great and deep enthusiasm aa well ag ability to feel the poetry of the desert, but out of thia enthusiasm and talent is growing an individualistic treatment, which has registered immense strides in development during the last year. In these pictures can be felt the pathless, limitless waste of tho desert. The rieh coloring of the wind sculptured rocks and (he diri9nt headlands are there. So is the clarity and sparkle of the air and the glare of the sun in these wildernesses. Anyone, who ran paint with as much imagination, and who has the love of Utahs barren places, surely is not wasting his time in doing as Mr. Salisbury did this summer, when he went to Carbon eounty and spent his vacation painting scenes in the vicinity of Helper. Among the rollcrtion, there are a number possessing the strange enchantment and romance of the .desert. One in particular shows a hroad green stretrh clothed bv gray-gree- n juniper and ent by numbers of deep gullies. The manner in which the yellow of these crnel gashes is paintpd, the blueness of the sky with its huge enmnlus cloud, and the purple mystery of the distance all combine to create the solemn, hushed beauty of the des, sea-lik- e, Employment Provided For Many On Olson Reservoir Project -- bt ligjjt-weig- $6-59- ht ICE to By TELEPHONE and Approximately fourteen men dui.j employed are being four teams the Olson j, v Price rily in cleaning according to Recorder Carl constructed V.'.
