While cer tain forces, mostly from the money making stand point, have been de manding radical changes in its ob servance, especially jn .the larger cities, such as the doing away with Christmas trees, on account of the destruction it is to growing timber. Removing the soft, bright shades of light among the glittering tinsel and green shade of the foliage pro duced by the little sperm candle, that so much annoys the insurance monopolies. Cutting off the long venerable gray hairs from Santa Clause's whiskers to render your fire policy more secure. In spite of this onslaught against cur Christ mas customs by the get-the-mouey side of our nature; if we will but consult the boy and girl of to-day as to the pleasure of these customs we imagine we will find the same curious desire to find out what the mysterious packages that come round contain, as well as the same restless can’ t-sleep-late-of-a-Christ- mas morn, that once possessed we hoys and girls of yesterday. Yes, let good cheer prevail, we are will ing that it remain a deceptive Kris- kingle, whiskers and all. It (s often said that printers take the advantage of persons not wish ing to subscribe to a paper by »elid ing it after subscription has run out. Others if you stop their paper the issue it runs out want to know if we cannot trust them for a few cents. In this matter we will de fine our position......Subscriptions to flu jiaper are in advance, if, how ever, %t.\he end of your subscrip tion you refeive the paper, it is with the understanding that at a convenient time you will call and pay for the same. If you wish your paper stopped at expiration of subscription, by advising us of this, we have a way ot our own of marking Such subscriptions and they will lie stopped. All papers marked "Sam ple Copy” we give you. It is not our iuttution that they be paid for. We are anxious to place a copy of the P rogress in every home in Eastern Clackamas Co. Suppose you do get a daily or a county paper, we have no ob jection to that and think if you wuut to be informed and up-to-date you should. The P r o g r e s s is your home paper. It tells of your home doings and is close to you iu tlie family circle. Send in your name and subscription.

Terms to suit Poultry raisers are taking lots of interest in the coming show of tbe Lane County Poultry Association at Eugene December 21st to 24th Handsomely engraved silver troph ies will be given as prizes. The poultry product of Oregon is val uer! at five million dollars annually „ * is no new experiment as it has been worked at least forty years ago. The mine is located sixteen miles from the nearest shipping point and has a good wagon road to the mines. The present company was organ ized about July 1st and the entire stock issue is held by Mr. John Brown, his brother, George, who is a practical mining man, and W. L. Bcckner, a mining expert; Presi dent and Manager of the corpora tion. It is believed by Mr. Brown that the’ talc is a valuable product as it is used for school chalk and by machinist and brings a high price in the market’ for this purpose. Mr. Brown_is well and favorably known by many of the residents through out Clackamas jm d Multnomah Cos and lias always been able to make anything go successfully that he has had anything to do with, so we have no doubt of his ability to make a success of this project with which he is associated as he has been a resident for the past uineteen years of Rockwood, Oregon.
