This giant fir is over forty feet in circum ference, and has a diamater of 13 i feet It is the largest fir in Washington County, and has few equals in the Northwest of thi3 particular variety. Prior the Iwis & Clark rair. in l'JO, one of the managers of th Fair went to Mr. Hatcman and wanted the tree cut for ex hibition at the exposition. Mr. ISateman ren heu in tne neiraiive. saving: As long as tne place is under my control that tree is noimr to stand And if I should ever sell it one of the restrictive clauses in the deed will be that the monarch of the forest must remain untouched." With this the Lewis & Clark man left sore ly disappointed. Max Lranda . county assessor. states that he has visited the true a numluT of times, and Cant a m M ms. who ne nea dui up the old Lyda mill, on Gales Creek, says that he went in to the tree at that time, with a cruiser w ho had all the necessary instruments to measure the mon arch. It was then about 13 feet in ilinmttpr and romnutation showed that it was over 16o feet in the first limb. Laot Lo ins states that the man, who was a geologist stated that in his opin ion the tree had been in a Dig slide over 200 years previous. w hen it was a small sapnng, ana that the change of venue had contributed to its erowth. The tree is large enougn to urnish lumber of all kinds for a nrettv hiir house. The monster is located about five miles above the Gales Creek post olhce, not far distant from the bales creeK- Glencoe road.

ANSWER Hillsboro, Sept 16, 1912 Dear Madame: Your inquiry regarding the correct engraving for wed ding silver has just been received. There is no set rule, and authorities differ as to which is correct It is argued by some that wedding presents are gifts to the bride and not to the groom, but it is the opinion of the majority that the groom's initials should mark the gift for why should the silver that that she will use in common with her husband all her life bear the initials of a name that is no longer hers? In fact probably many of her guests would not be familiar with her former name. This latter custom prevails in the fashion centers of Europe and America, and has generally i .. : 1 w ... .
