Part of the Journal force attend
ed tbe big annual fish fry at Vanora
which took place as Sunday. We
had often been told qf the fun to be
had at these big feeds, but had not
tbe remotest Idea of just what a real
flab fry was.
We arrived early, being the fifth
car to go down the long grade, and
made ourselves domfortable under
the fruit trees near tbe old mill site.
Naturally we were on the lookout
for the long strings of trout which
were to supply tbe main part of the
much talked of banquet, but saw no
thing In that line for some time.
8hortly after our arrival cars from
all over began to put In an appear
ance, and by noon there were 188
autos parked In the level glade ad
joining the orchard. Among the
cars to arrive was one light truck
from Madras with the fish for the
occasion. 1,800 trout comprised the
load, and tbey were all cleaned and
covered with ' crushed Ice. Theae
fish, we were told, were all caught
by the local fishermen of Madras,
the bait used being artificial flies.
They ranged in size from ten Inches
up to eighteen or twenty inches, and
we want to here state that 1,800
trout all in one pile la a proposition
to big to be fully realized without
actually viewing them. They were
piled out In great mounds on two
long tables, preparatory to being
placed on the hot plate for trying.
The stove used for the cooking of
this great mass of trout was a large
brick-walled affair with a steel top
three feet wide by five feet long
When this large top was gotten to
Just the right heat, it was flooded
with grease and then covered en
Urely with fish.
Messers- Howard W. Turner and
Austin W. Gulp acter as chefs for
the occasion, snd the way they turn
ed raw material into beautifully
browned food was a revelation to us
Each of these gentlemen were armed
with hot-cuke turnera, and they
worked with a system that made for
speed. While one was dishing out
fried fish to the long line of wait
ing guests, the other was turning
the long rows of trout to keVp them
from burning and at the same time
piling on more fish. The range top
was entirely covered with trout for
fully two and a half hours. In ad
dltion to trout another range, un
der the able management of Perry
Read was kept busy boiling coffee
and keeping the chilli beans hot.
There were over 700 people pres
ent and all seemed to be out for a
great big time, and It they didn't
bave said good time they sure had
no one to blame but themselves,
This was our first fish fry, but it
we live and are within driving dis
tance of Vanora next year it will
not be our last one.
This try is an annual occasion put
on by the Madras Rod and Gun Club,
this being the eighth annual Fish
Fry. We foel that special mention is
due to Howard W. Turner, Austin
W, Gulp and Lewis H. Irving of
Madras, also to several other people
whose names we were unable to
learn, for their efforts tn seeing
that all present enjoyed themselves
and we feel safe In saying the Mes
sers Turner and Culp were the most
of Oregon on that day. We believe
that the Rod and Gun Club should
award them not only a rousing vote
of thanks, but also a fitting medal
for their labors. They are gentle-
men whom it is a privilege to come
In contact with.
