Sunday morning the TVeHbyterian
church whs well tilled with an appreci
ative audience and the service was one
of peculiar interest, it leing the initia

a score of happy children and the way

beautifully ueccrated with evergreens
and ever the pulpit on the front wall ap

Will to Men" made out of evergreens

of the time was given to the children
ho entered into the occasion with
might and main and sang and read with
touching and . pleaaing effectiveness
Mil's Grace M. Marahall sang "Star of
Eternity," by Gerald Lane in a pleasing
manner. All through the exercises the
audience gave the best of attention and
thou h no clapping of bands is permitted
on a day of this kind, their faces indi
cated, in a manner not to be misunder
stood, their appreciation of the way the
voung folks commemorated the approach
of the happiest day of all the year. In
the evening occurred the usual gospel
sermon by the-pastor. During the offer

to all.
Sundav morning at the Episcopal
church Rev. P. K. Hammond preached
an excellent sermon to a large audience
on the subject of "The Reign of Love"
His text was from St. John 3:16. "For
God to loved the world that be gave his
only begotten son that wnoaoever be
lieetb in Him should have everlasting
life." Mr. Hammond said in part:
"There has been three ways of looking
at God Some think ot bim aa will,
others as law. As for example the phil
osopher who is constantly looking for
the laws of nature and again the Cal
vinist who a ways lays much stress on
the will of God, bnt be continued, the
reallv religious followers can only be sat
isfied with a God who embraces this law
will and love in one, that while the any
of ludgment is a day of wrath it is also a
day of love." In the evening Rev. Mr.
Hammond held another especially at
tractive service. The if UBic of the choir
was very, good and the attendance large.
I lirintnias day the regular Christmas
day te-vices were itupresnive and lamely
at'emled. The church was beautifully
trimmed in evergreens and ferns and
presented an appearance highly attract
ive and in keeping with the glad Christ
mas tune.
The Congregational church, of which
Rev. E. S. Bollinger is ptstor, made a
I lecial effort Sunday to give to the peo
ple uf Oregon City a service of more than
the usual high order. The service iu
the morning was devoted principally to
the com memo at ion 0' the landing of
the Pilgrims, and the Bpacious auditorium
was beautifully decked in ferns and ever
greens, nothing being left undone which
could add to the solemnity and beauty of
the day. Over the pulpit bung a beauti
ful arch covered with evergreens and all

windows were arranged, in bunches of
exquisite delicacy, many wreathes of
terns and evergreens, all ol which gave
to the rooma a beauty rarely, attained.

The Bureau of Forestry has received a
report from one of its agents which shows
that the damage caiired by fore.t fires la
North western Oregon and Southwestern
Washington during September was much
greater tinn has been generally sua
poeed. After a careful trip throuxh ttie
regions devastated by the fire, William
T. Cox, who was detailed bv the hurena
for this work, in a conservative estimate,
places the the damn;:" in Oregon and

sawmills, manufactured lumber. Rtaixi

on personal observation in the burned
dintricta, both in Oregon and Washing
ton, conference with lumbermen, farmers
and settlers,' a"l oilier truetwortliy
sources of Info tnation. Owing to it
nearness to mai art, however, much of
the damaged timber in the burned re
gions of Oregon will be saved, and the
net loss will be smaller than the forego
ing enures. In Washington a portion
will also be saved, though a smaller per
centage, owing to its being less accessi
ble to means of transportation.
Much of the area burned over was cov
ered with virgin forest, mainly Dougiaa
spruce, cedar an I hemlock. Besides the
great loss of property, 19 persons were
killed and many more ioju-ed, and 94
families were rendered homeless. Much
of the large and small game in these re
gions was destroyed.

In his report the agent of the Bureau of
Forestry included not'only the lois of
life and property, but also the causes of
the fires, the methods used in fighting
them, the damage to the soil, and tlm
outlook for reproduction of the forests.
The burned districts were also mapped.
