An overplus of public enter
tainments by local organizat
ions of late is ascribed by of
ficials as the reason for the
postponment of the scheduled
Chamber of Commerce benefit
for the street light mainte
nance fund, scheduled for last
week. With entertainments
occurring in such close suceo«s
; ion, there is small prospect of
a sufficient sum being realized
| to make the street light project
worth while.

Mross Gains Picture Honors
A remarkably beautiful pho
tographic view of Crater Lake,
Oregon, in winter garb, was re
ceived this week by the Herald
from Hans G. Mross, well
known former Texas creek
prospector and property own
er.
Mr. Mross’s outdoor photo
graphic studies have attracted
wide interest during the past
few years and many have been
reproduced by various outside
publications but it appears
that he has won new honors in
this field by a series of pict
ures of the Crater Lake, most
of which have been enlarged
and exhibited by the Eastman
company of Portland. The
general public is familiar with
the wonderful summer beauties
of Crater Lake, but Mr. Mross
has succeeded in presenting
them from an entirely new
point of view by showing them
in the snowy garb of winter,
which gives them an increased
beauty and attractiveness.
Mr. Mross is now located at
Cannon Beach, Oregon, where
he is engaged in construction
work. That he still retains
his interest in Hyder is indicat
ed by the renewal of his sub
scription to the Herald for the
coming year.
