A party of vacationers, fourteen in
number, spent several days this week
enjoying the sights along the Columbia
Highway. They secured the services
of Mr.. Mcclellan who took them all,
bag and baggage, in his big truck,
Mrs. Mack, member of the party, says
the whole trip from start to finish was
thoroughly enjoyable. The party went
to the end of the paved road, camping
each night, going and coming, near
Briday Veil Falls. The evenings were
spent telling stories around the camp
fire and indeed part of the night. as
the time was so short no one seemed to
want to waste any of it in sleep. On
the return trip an accident happened
to the truck; a bolt became loose and
ruined a cylinder head which put a
stop to further travel for the day.
This was near Shepherd Is Dell, as some
of the party discovered to their de-
light. Next morning large touring
car was engaged to take the party to
Portland where they took the train for
