An Industrial Exhibit,
The attention of all citizens of Clacka
mas connty who wish to aid in the de
velopment of our agricultural, mineral
and manufacturing interest is called to
the work of Oregon City board of trade
through its special committee on exploit
ation. The committee wants to obtain
sample of every mineral found in the
county. Of the clays the samples should
be large enough so that working tests can
be made to ascertain their value. The
various mineral specimens should be
plainly labeled with the name of the
donor, the location from where taken,
the apparent quantity in sight and any
other data relative to their value.
The board of trade would also like to
have samples of the various kinds of
manufactured articles of every class and
description.
For the agricultural exhibit farmers
should commence preparing now. As
their products mature the board wants
samples sent in properly labeled and
the board asks the farmers to plant and
cultivate with that end in view. They
want to maintain a permanent exhibit
here in Oregon City and also mean to
have the best connty exhibit at the
Industrial fair in Portland next fall.
Thev also contemplate showing the
exhibit East at points where they think
the greatest good will accrue to Clacka
mas county.
This is a matter in which all citizens
of this county are directly interested and
each one should endeavor to further the
cause and insure the success of the
undertaking.
The members of the committee are:
Charles Mexerve, E. E. Charmao, J. G.
Pilsbury, J. A. Thayer and J. F. Clark,
and articles tor the exhibit can be left
with any one of them or at the Entcb

Easter day Is the Sunday after."
The alters of St. John's Catbolio
church were handsomely decorated with
flowers and evergreens and the sermon
by Father Hillebrand appropriate to
tbe Easter celebration The music
which is always good, was especially
fine and the attendance large.
At St. Paul's Episcopal church thej
chancel and altars were elaborately de
corated with Easter lilies, ferns and
flowers. The music by the choir was.
inspiring and tbe solos by Miss Ragland,
Miss Conyers and Mr. Harris were par
ticularly well rendered. 1 The choir con
sisted of Miss Ragland, Miis Mary
Conyers, Miss Imo Harding, Mrs. E. E.
Williams, and Mrs. J. De Forest; Mr.
Henry Pusey, Mr. V. Harris and Wm.
