At the cross- roads of three distinct bi- ological provinces — Cas- cades, Sierra Nevada and Great Basin — the park pre- serves exceptional biodiver- sity. The historic park high- way built by the California Conservation Corps winds a 30-mile path through the volcanic landscape as part of a national scenic byway providing spectacular vis- tas of volcanoes, wilder- ness, mountain lakes and forests. Eight hydrothermal areas showcase a dynamic geologic landscape, all four types of volcanoes, and Las- sen Peak — one of the larg- est plug dome volcanoes in the world. Across the some 106,000 acres, there are eight camp- grounds, concession facili- ties, visitor contact stations including the historic Loo- mis Museum, ranger-led ac- tivities and more than 150 miles ofhikingtrailsofvary- ing length and difficulty. El- evations range from 5,600 to more than 10,400 feet, which provides visitors many winter recreational opportunities.

The Calico ball given by the Red Cross at the op- era pavilion last Saturday night added $117.20 to the treasury of the organiza- tion. This report was made at the meeting of the chap- ter Tuesday afternoon at their headquarters in the Imperial hotel. It is best evidence of the success of that social affair, since it was entirely for the bene- fit of the finances of the or- ganization. The meeting yester- day afternoon was well attended by the mem- bership to listen to a dis- cussion of the Red Cross and its various activi- ties by William W. Hush, field agent representing the district. The discus- sion was given entirely for the enlightenment of the members on the work they are expected to do, and was intensely inter- esting. In the critical situ- ation in which the United States finds itself at this time an intelligent dis- cussion of the Red Cross becomes one of deep in- terest. —March21,1917 100 YEARS AGO Lo ca l Re d Cr os s gr ow in g Staff Reports For the 19th year in a row,theDairyvilleCommu- nity Club is offering thou- sands of dollars in college scholarships to local stu- dents.
