7be Beautitul BetbHem Bells.
By Trank C. Stanton.
Over the roar of tbe cities over the hills and the dells
AVitb a message of peace to tbe nations, ring tbebeautiful Bethelehem Veils.
Bringing joy to the soutathat are sighing in the hovels where poverty dwells
Theie is life there is life for the dying in the beautiful Bethlehem bellsv
Far off in a land that is lovely for the tender, sweet story it tells,
In the light of a glorious morning rang the beautiful Bethlehem bells ;
And still, in the hearts of creation an anthem exultingly swells
At that memory sweet of the ringing of the beautiful Bethlehem bells!
They rang o'er tbe bills and the valleys, they summoned tbe glad world that day
From regions of night to tbe radiant light of the cot where the Beautiful lay.
And forever and ever and ever a wonderful melody dwells
In the tender, sweet ringing and singing of tbe beautiful Bethlehem bells.
For they sing of a love thit i deathless a live that still triumphs in loss;
They sing of tbe love that is leading tbe world to tbe Calvary cross ;
Ring sweet o'er the sound f the cities ring sweet o'er tbe hills and the dells.
And touch us with tendered pitien, oh, beautiful Bethlehem bells!
Clackamas County
fias Prospered
Vear 1903 Ijas Witnessed tbe Begin
nlng of ttlany Hew Industries.
. The year 1903 has proved very satis
factory for Clackamas county and Ore
gon City, its county: seat.
Beginning with Oregon City more new
buildings have been completed and are
under construction than in any two
years in her history. The Garde build
ing, the Methodist church building, the
new depot of the Oregon Watrr Power
& Railway c mpany, the, splendid new
structure replacing the plai.t of tbe
burne i out department of the Oregon
City Manufacturing company, better
known as the woolen mills' aie among
the most noteworthy. All of these
buildinga.have either been finished dur
ing the year or will be completed short
ly. The new Ice plant being put up near
Green Point on Main Btreet and J. P.
Lovett's ice plant, which was re-established
several months ago, bIiow the
progress of manufacturing eatabiish
nlents, while the paper mills and the
rortlana General Electric company
'ave bjth spent thousands of dollars en
1 irging and renovating their plants.
There are fully a score more of new.
business houses, here than there wlb a
year ago. Fifty new residences have
been constructed within the limits of
the town, and altogether the growth of
the city has been more rapid than in
any year of her history.
The rural districts are nt behiod in
progressiveness. From almost every
country village in the bounds' of the
county comes the report o, improve
mnt in many ways. Farms have been
I'Ut in a better state of cultivation
Many new homes have been built be
cause the old ones were not commodious
enough to suit the tastes of the farmers
in hia prosperous days.
The resourses of Clackamas county
. ,rvnu .:,,s:x
Mckle .
iff a
are many. Her . fertile soil stretches
from the footh'Us of the Coast range
to the foothillB of the Cascades. Her
swift flowing streams and cataracts fur
nish water power suitable for the run
ning of 100 manufacturing establish
ments. Her soil produces an abundance
ot all and any crops that (an be grown
in the Willamette valley. Back in the
Cascades there are tens of thousands r f '
acres of virgin forests in which the
woodman's ax has never been heard.
There is fir, hemlock and larch in
abundance, with a fair sprinkling of
cedar. Furthur back in the mountains
there are mineral deposits that are only
waiting the coming of hardy miners to
make that section one of the richest in
the country. Gold, copper, silver and
coal have been found in paying quanti
ties and more development hag been
done in mining than in any previous
year.
An industry that is worthy of special
mention is that of dairying, which ia be
ing engaged in with gaeat profit in cer
tain sections. The Logan cheese factory '
which is a co-operative concern, is turn
ing out a produu second to none in the
county. The Clear Oreek creamery, in
the same part of the county, ia handling
the milk from 200 to 300 cows and the .
farmers who are interested and a
source of income that is infinitely sat
isfactory. In the way "i road-making much has
Deen aone during the year. Ssveral
new high roads have been constructed.
The Oregon Water Power's new line up
tbe Clackamas has put the farmers in
that part of the county within easy
reach of the Portland markets. Al
together the year just closing has been
a most satifactory one to Clackamas
county people.
Exercises at Barclay School.
The teachers of the Barclay school
prepared an excellent program for Wed
nesday afternoon. Many visitors were
present. The program ; consisted of
songs, recitat:ons, dialogues and fancy
dances by the little tots. The rooms
were beautifully and artistically deco
rated with flags, ferns and evergreens.
1 no teacherB deserve great credit for
the skill and energy manifested in pre
paring tonne entertainment.
