A recent visit to the Hendricks'
Auto camp, known on the maps as
"Town's Auto Camp," proved most
interesting. The camp is located
2 1-2 miles west of Boardman on the
Columbia highway in a shady
grove where a few years ago was
trackless sagebrush. Mr. Hen
dricks opened his camp Ave years
ago and each year has added
many improvements. At present he
nas nine cabins, some with one
bed and others with two beds In
them. Each cabin contalrs a stove.
springs and mattress, table, with
fuel furnished. There is a fair siz
ed community kitchen, but this is
not much used so early In the sea
son. Every cabin was spotlessly
clean and well cared for. There is
more call for the double cabins than
the single, as the cars average
about four to the party. This num
ber varies greatly from the lone
driver to the Portland man who
stopped there one night with his
wife and ten children. He was driv
ing an Oldsmobile sedan and It was
matter of Machiavellian skill to
so adjust the ten progeny that all
would fit In properly. A store and
gas station both of which do a thriv
ing business are part of the neces
sary equipment. Hot and cold show-

A thrilling, gripping mys
tery story, by a noted
Oregon author!
I, laundry trays, a fine Kohler
lighting plant a well 82 feet deep
which supplies water for the camp,
all add to the comfort of the weary
traveler. -The tourist of the past
year drives a better class car tnan
did the one five years ago, although
the little ol' Ford still predomin
ates. . Each driver Is required to
give almost a family history when
he stops for the night His name,
license number, his home town, his
destination and the number in the
party being asked.
One of the most interesting fea
tures which is not common to most
auto camps is the Iron cage contain
ing two black bears, 2 years of age,
which Mr. Hendricks purchased in
Washington when they were cubs.
The antics of the bears surely are
amusing to both young and old, as
they turn on the wagon wheel set
in the cage, bathe in their small
pool or devour peanuts and candy
given them by tourists. Tom's camp
makes an ideal picnic place and
Mr. Hendricks has very kindly
made the offer to the people of
Boardman to make use of it for a
picnic place at any time, for fam
ily picnics or organizations or
groups, free of charge.
