THE StTNDAV OREGONIAX, PORTLAND, 3IATCCII 5, 1023 1 d. LOOKIXG SOl'TH FRO BIR.VSIDE BRIDGE. . - ' i t. ......i fjARBORS have a fascination for most of us. One of the events of nearly every eastsider'S day Is tl trip over the bridge in the mornyig to -work. The ever busy traffic the shipping-, the deep-sea vesselflylngr their many flags, the river ts and passenger craft, the barges a,d the life along shore! Why don't mole residents of the city spend a, day or y along the waterfront just retting auainted? The ch-acter of the harbor Is changing. IThe decrepit old wooden docks are iimbllng or being tumbled Into the rir to make way for more pretentiousJsafer and more modern structures. Every form of labor-saving device k being employed to im prove the efjlciencv of the port. 1 . . In makl his regular weekly TS sketch for The Oregonlan Herbert Heywood stood on Burnside bridge and looked up the river, or south. It gives an Idea of the domestic traffic in the harbor. In their work'of deep ening and improving the channel, dredges have to move immense quan tities of material. Much of this stuff is merchantable sand or gravel and the dealers in the trade take advant age of conditions and use this supply in city contract work. The building material of this character, supplied to contractors' In Portland, thanks to the untiring work and scouring and cleansing of the great rivers. Is of the best. . , . . .:V The barges are .towed into Hheir docks by busy, little tugs and -the gravel unloaded by great cranes, and conveyors, saving the utmost in time. The shore of the upper harbor is lined with these great machines on both sides and jjj-esents a busy scene, especially when building and con tracting lines are at their height. The five great bridges that span the river give the harbor a setting all its own, an individuality, as it were. . i ' t Tn"e increase in -local traffic above the bridges is no more notable than the Increase , in foreign Strade. Di rectly across from the dock pictured herewith are others at which ships from many lands load cargo. This m'ngling of the marine efforts of the globe, the intermixing of nationali ties, when often as many as 10 or a dozen foreign nations are represented, is a fact often overlooked-by resi dents of Portland "in search of the different." It cannot be said that Portland lacks "color," especially In its harbor. COMBAT FIRES VAIjtTABLiI AID IS GIVEtf FOR EST SERVICE.
