LA GRANDE FRUIT CO.
NIK TRIP TO THE
OREGON STATE
By. HILDA BLOKLAND.
Our party chaperoned by Mrs. A. E.
Ivanhoe left La Grande for Salem at
1:30 Tuesday morning. At 5 a. m.
we arrived tt Pendleton.
As we left Pendleton we saw noth
ing but barren wheat fields and sage
brush. But soon we came to the Uma
tilla ' River which is a broad quiet
stream. Ae we journeyed on we came
to the Columbia which is a most
beautiful river. Soon we saw the
Deschutes, a mad nulling stream com
ing down to join the Columbia. On
tho right were the while sand dunes
which looked very pretty in the early
morning sunshine. We saw houseboats
all along the river.
As we passed on we saw the Inter
state bridge, we saw some Indians
out fishing. Next came the Celilo
canal which is quite wide and some
miles long. The railroad and the
Columbia river highway Jun side by
side. We were allowed a stop at the
different falls. All are beautiful, but
the most beautiful were Horsetail and
Multnomah. At Multnomah we had
our pictures t.iicen r.cair the falls. The
great volume of water decends and
with a mighty roar lands on the rocks
below. We passed through a tunnel
a mile long and when we got through
we were covered with cinders. All
the way the scenery was very beauti
ful. We saw where the public mar
kets get their products for ull along
the la'ilroad were acres and acres of
vegetables.
We passed Crown Point and Roos
ter Rock, and finally wo crossed the
I Willamette nnd reached Portlands
We had dinner in the Union depot
at Portland. At 1 p. m. we boarded
the Southern Pacific to go to Salem.
'As we left the'euturbs of Portland
we entered the mountains. . As we
passed on, the socenery was most
beautiful, the mountains with the
still water at their base with here and
there a salmon springing out of tho
waters made a most beautiful picture.
On the other side we could see small
villages nestled among the hills.
' At Oregon City we saw the huge
volume of water which furnishes wa
ter power for its manufacturing.
As we nearedthe Capital City we
saw hop fields, in one place people
were gathering hop.?. At Chemawa
we saw the Indian school where the
little Indian boys and girls were at
play. At 6:30 p. m. we reached Salem
and we were let off at the Fair
grounds, where we were met by our
chaperonos, Miss Fay Clarke, Mrs.
Maris, and Mrj. Hurrington met the
girls, while Mr. Vedder and Mr. Stai
ger met the boys. We were given our
passes which were blue ribbons wifli
"Girl's Fuir Camp" printed on them
and they had "Boya Fair Camp" print
ed on theirs.
Then we were taken to our camp
grounds and told to get ready for
supper which was at 6 oclock.
We had four tents, two for the boys
one for the girls and one eating tent.
In one end of the eating tent was
a stove and two small tables, there
were two other tables with benches.
We were seated first, a boy and then
a girl with Mr. Carleton at the head
of one table and Mrs. Maris at the
head of the other. We had very i
meals.
The first evening we were sent to
'bed at 8 oVIjilc. The next morning
we were called at 5:30 and went to
breakfast at 0:45. At the breakfast
table we found out that there weie U0
in camp, IS girls ami 42 girls.
After breakfast we assembled in our
tents and were given introductions;
the bovb' took military drill for an
hour and a half alter breakfast and
then were allowed to go until ll:Jo,
'when to get leady fur dinner. The
j girls did not lake military drill so
i were allowed the time from breakfast
to dinner to do as they pleased. We
! had to make v..r own beds as we slept
on cots.
I The fair ground cover nearly SO
1 acres. The firrft day we spent in ex-
