CHIN-UPPERS SERVE FISHERMEN. Fred and Bern ice Camp
of Stayton, who met as wheelchair members of the Chin-Up Club,
have established a thriving Oregon business, despite their physical
handicaps. Eight years ago Fred began tying trout fishing flies.
Today the Camps operate the Camp Tackle Co., with Stayton and
Portland shops serving America's sports fishermen. The firm, employ
ing more than a dozen persons, catalogues 400 varieties of flies and
25 of spinners. Both Fred, who is Stayton's Chamber of Commerce
president, and Bern ice are enthusiastic over cooperation they've
received from the Stayton Branch of the First National Bank.
O
MEAT IS THEIR DISH. As an Eastern Oregon livestock mar1:r r,
Samuel E. Hill saw the need for a wholesale meal service in
Pendleton. Three years ago he purchased a small "custom" slaughter
house, serving only the individual needs of owners of hogs, cattle
and lambs. With the help of his wife and son, Clinton J. Hill (now
a New York art student), Hill extended the business by providing
fresh and cured meats for nearby markets and restaurants. Now tlie
Hill Meat Co. is in enlarged quarters and provides seven non frr,-'y
jobs. The firm continues to advance its growth through helpiul
services of the Pendleton Branch of First National.
The persons you meet here have the kind of
vision and initiative on which Oregon's pros
perity is based. They have taken widely dif
ferent means of bettering themselves but In
each case they have increased our state's
income, created new jobs and added oppor
tunities for all of us. To help individuals help
themselves and, thus, build Oregon family
by family, farm by farm and business by busi
nessbanks in the First National Group make
their constructive services widely available.
Come in and let ui know how we can help you.
