Tom Gallagher does not like mud,
except as coating over lath. Sun
da he took his family to The Dalles
on a pleasure jaunt The out going
trip was fine and the return was
also fine until they reached a place
neaf the Dufur cemetery. There
the Essex ran into a mud slide. The
road crew was on hand and soon
had cleared a roadway thru the
slime. Tom steered his low-slung
car ; thru about three feet of mud
and eventually trot out Anothef
man, driving like the mill tail of
hades, approached the slide. He
did not attend warning wagj but
hit bolter skelter thru. Tom says
he'll bet a cookie that fellow was a
candidate for an auto washing when
he got to a place where they
launder cars.
Dave Donaldson watches the
river with the eye of a hawk. He
keeps advised regarding the condi
tion of the water, height and possi
ble chances for fish runs. He cays
that without an early flood thre
will not be good fishing in the De
schutes. He arrives at that conclu
sion after watching the river for
a number of years. We believe
Dave knows his fishing onions, as
he h one of the most, successful
fisherman hereabouts.
