Christmas bells, Oh Christmas bells,
Sweetly chiming in the dells;
On the air their music swells,
Telling of a wondrous birth,
Of the babe that came to earth
Bringing grace and peace to men.
Shepherds watching fl.-cks by night,
Awed were they by glorious light.
Angel glories burst on sight,.
Angel voices praise in song.
Heavenly hosts, a mighty throng.
Gladness bring to earth and man.
Unto us a Saviour's born.
Hail, all hail the glorious mornl
All ye sad and weary, born,
Tidings of great joy to you,
Hear the story, ever new,
Christ, our Lord, and Christ, our King.

CHRISTMAS IN 1839
Eva Emery Dye, in her book "MsLaush
in and Old Oregon" in describing Christ
nas at Fort Vancouver in 1859 says:
rat goose, cranes, swai.s so fat that
they swam in grease, plum-duff and
biked quails, white to the bone. These
the Otegon epecuries ate for Christmas
dinner in 1839."
A few davs ago, while the air was fill
ed with snow flakes, it looked as tho we
would have the music of the sleigh bells
to add to the Christmas joy, but it looks
now that we will have to forgo that
pleasure.
There will be no paper issued from this
office tomorrow. Of all the years the
Observer has been issued, this Christmas
season, from a labor standpoint has been
t'-e most trying. And those who have
boin the blunt will appreciate a diy of
freedom.
, We wish vou one and all a Merry
Christmas.
There is no disguising the fact that
ihristmas of the twentieth century sort
is loosing with each year the true Christ
spirit and giving away to commercialism
To too many the former pleasures are
now burdens. Dollars are now required
when cents formerallygave the most true
happiness. Christmas however, has
simply kept pace with the strensness
of the American spirit. We are living in
too rapid an age. In fact not tivir? but
existing in a whirlwind of forces, social
and business, that gives us no opportunity
to live. The simpler life Is much more
to be desired.
It s tc he heptd that after returnire
from their holiday vacation our national
lawmakers wnl return with more of the
milk of human kindness and rot act like a
lot ef chronic rbeumaticsdnxiouslyawait
ing for an opportunity to enter a protest
against every measure presented.
