ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURg, 6rIs6A MONDAY, JULY 21, 1941". THReV Society and Clubs By LOTUS KNIGHT PORTER WATSON E. BOI8E AND SONS AND GRANDSONS ENJOY TWO-DAY TRIP Watson E. Boise, his sons, Charles and Eugene, and grand sons, David Bell and Charles P. Boise, took a two days outing last week to Diamond and Crater lakes, going by Tiller-Trail. Charles Boise, of London, Eng land, had never had the oppor tunity previously of taking this trip and he pronounced It "won derful." They returned by the North Umpqua road and had several In teresting experiences. . At the heavy rock work along I Copeland creek two large boul ders had fallen on the road and had not been removed as the CCC crew was away fighting for est fires. It required the com bined efforts of six people for the removal of the boulders from the road. A few miles above Steamboat they encountered a fine deer family, the buck, doe and two fawns standing in the road with the Umpqua on one side and the steep bluff on the other. Waiting for the deer to decide what to do about It, they were much sur prised when the deer concluded to climb the almost perpendicu lar bluff and made it without a slip. Above Big Camas a fine buck was standing only a couple of rods from the road and remained quietly for a few minutes for In spection, then went behind a tree, but peeked out to see what the I intruders intended to do.
