While there are count ess natural trout streams, abutted by nvlting groves and camping spots, here is one which especially deserves ecognitlon of the man In search of -ecreation. Rock Creek is the name of hiji nictiirenniie stream which fur bishes comforts for the camper and fisherman. With its headwaters orig- nating in the mountain oistricia nearly 75 miles northeast of Roseburg. t follows a natural course through he deeD and rugired canyons and tmpties into the North I'mpnua Rt-ver, bout seven miles north of Glide.

Leaving the hatchery, the pleasure seeker continues hla Journey west ward for a few miles, when he finally reaches the Umpqua River. Without a bridge at this point" the ferry tender has to be summoned. The remainder of the drive is through a thickly tim bered district, abutted on one side by the river and on the other by a tower ing wall of rock. Although some what rough, the drive from the ferry to Rock Creek, a distance of about seven miles, is made In less than 40 minutes. Reaching a point about a mile from the campers' resort, the pleasure-seeker Is attracted to a pecu liarly constructed bridge spanning Rock Creek at a point where it empties Into the North Umpqua River. This bridge is much narrower than the average structure and was constructed it Government expense. Although used extensively by private individuals, this bridge 13 maintained principally for the convenience of forestry offi cials. Thousands of acres of valuable "timber are found along the river north of this bridge, and the cost of its erec tion has been saved many times over upon occasions of forest fires. Pass ing over this bridge the camper pro ceeds for less than a mile, when he reaches one of the most picturesque resorts In Douglas County. The coun try in this vicinity Is rugged, well shaded and free of reptiles and Insects which have a terror for the tender foot. The camper Is required to walk but a few steps to reach the trout streams. While the North Umpqua River offers trout much larger than those found In Rock Creek, each have peculiarities attractive to different fishermen. The waters of both are swift and well dotted with riffles. Both streams are abutted by huge rocks, which afford footing for the fisherman. For scen ery advantages and natural comforts there are few streams in the state that will compare with Rock Creek. SUMMER RESORT NEWS Continued From Page 5 Wash.; C. E. Johnson and wife. Port land.
