The Metolius has been known tor
years ns one of the bHt early seas
on trout BlrrjuiiH In Oregon. As for
the trout themselves Well after you
have battled with one of thone 20
inch beauties you'll know you've boen
to a real party.
MoHt of the anglers during the
first four dnys of the season fished
the Metolius and reported that in
splto of the orge number of sports
man frequenting the stream from
Xear to year, trout are abundant, big
and gamy. Fly hooks should be. well
stocked with dark bucktall and stone
fly, but If you sneak up on a trout fly
and Impale It on your hook you will
find the fish especially partial to a
living bait at this time of year.
Roads are- reported In very good
shape, and for newcomers In this
section directions are given for
reaching the stream. Drive by way
of Tumulo and Sisters, and from the
latter point in a northwesterly di
rection, skirting the base of Black
Butte on the west side. From here
the road turns due north for two
miles and a half, then branches off to
the right, and with a mile more you
are at the Allinghum ranger station,
the first point you can reach on the
Motollus.
If, Instead of taking the branch
road after passing Black Butte, you
keep on straight ahead, Dan Hols
lng's ranch Is at the end of the Jour
ney, with . good fishing and prime
country cooking waiting for you.
Supervisor N. G. Jacobson of the
Deschutes National Forest, warns
against taking the road around the
bead of the Motollus at this season
as the ground is still watersoaked,
and at least the heavier cars would
probably mire down. Excellent road
maps of the Deschutes Forest have
been prepared and may be had free
by calling at the forest service office
In the First National Bank building
or at the Bulletin office. Bend Bul

Mr. Seymour states that the club
work over the state promisee a very
succesful year, that It never baa been
so promising. At thia time there are
2,000 cluba in the state, which means
that more than 20,000 boya and girls
are engaged in club work. They have
organized the cluba into the differ
ent projects so that all those interest
ed In sheep are In the sheep division,
the hog raisers in the hog division,
etc. Each project has a leader who
ia voluntarily helping in the work,
making a total of 2,000 people who
are working to help thia Important
work. There are too few parents
who are aware of tbe vast benefits
that will accrue from these cluba.
Last year the boya and girls of Ore
gon raised enough hoga to feed three
regiments of soldier for five months
and enough of all sorts of food to

CAMPAIGN FOR Y. W. C. A.
The vital need tor organized work
among the girls and young women ia
the smaller cities and rural commun
ities of the State as carried on by the
Young Women's Christian Associa
tion has been brought to the notice
of the National Association during
the post two years through the ex
igencies of war to such an - extent
that a great nation-wide campaign
has been outlined for installing
trained secretaries in the towns, the
establishment of a local Association
if conditions warrant it, but at least
supervising' the activities of grade
school girls, high school girls and
young employed girls by means of
clubs, camps, and conferences, to
broaden and increase fellowship, to
have good times and (o be of service
to each other. .
A committee of women represent
ing the four Northwestern states of
Oregon, - Washington, Idaho and
Montana, met in Seattle in January
and plans were made for securing
funds for this work. Oregon's quota
is $11,395. In a number of counties
the campaign opened on February
23; no date has been set for closing
the campaign as it will continue until
the quota is reached. Klamath coun
ty has already turned in its full
quota and Washington county says
its quota is in sight. In some coun
ties a tag sale is to be held to secure
the funds. Multnomah county will
raise $5,000 but will not put on its
campaign until after the Armenian
drive.
. This is the first time the National
Young Women's Christian Associa
tion has come before the public for
funds for two years, and the Govern
ment does not allow any of the money
raised last November for the work of
the War Work Council of the Y. W.
C. A. to be diverted to the regular
Association work, hence the necessity
of securing this money if the girls
of the smaller communities are to
be given the help, encouragement,
and inspiration which they need and
which the city girl has through the
large Y. W. C. A. . Mrs. George
F. Wilson of Portland is' State Di
rector for Oregon of the 1919 "Car-'
ry On" campaign and its slogan is
"The girls of today are the women
of tomorrow, the Women of tomorrow
are worth the dollars of today."
