Christmas Tree.

A pleasant time for the children OF the
town and neighborhood occurred at
4 o'clock Monday afternoon at the Con-
gregational church. A good sized crowd
was present and the tree was loaded
with sweetmeats and presents. A short
program OF first rate music and recita-
tions by the children was much enjoyed
by those present. The ladies who were
at the head Of the affair are to be con-
graduated on its success.
Christmas time is good for all OF us.
1t jars us loose from the more sordid
pursuits OF life, at least for brief season
and gives us taste of that true happi'
ness which comes only from onr efforts
Tor the happiness OF others. Kind hearts
plan these Christmas joys and an ample
reward is found in the big faith the lit
tie tykes place in old Santa. And after
all, "Kind hearts are more than coronets
and simple faith than Norman blood.n

For an Open River.

A recent dispatch from Washington
to the spokane-Review says:
The secretary Of war has transmitted
TO the house the report OF the chief OF
engineers upon the examination and
survey Of the Columbia river between
the foot Of The Dalles fapids and the
head Of Cello Falls, Ore. and Washing
ton, with view to the construction OF
d canal and lock to overcome the OBJ
structions to navigation, authorized by
the last river and harbor act.
The estimated cost Of the work is given
az SO, 900, ,371, or in round mum bers $40O0,-
900. Captain Hart, who made the sur.
yey, reports that the work is one OF
public Importance worthy Of undertaking
for the United States, but in connection
with the advisability OF beginning the
undertaking at this time be Gala atten-
tion to the reports in favor Of portage
road around the distractions, which
could be completed at one-tenth the cost
Of canal and in half the time. He
says that such road would determine
the future commerce and indicate the
capacity Of the permanent improvement
required.
But II there is objection to the owner
ship Of such road by the United States
he recommends the early improvement
by means Of canals. The chief Of engin-
eers makes no specific Recommendation.

Christmas at Ferry Canyon.

A Christmas tree was given at the
Nelson school house In Ferry Canyon
Monday evening, which was grand
success in every sense Of the word. A
fund Of about 5000 was raised In the
neighborhood TO provide sweetmeats and
good things for general distribution, and
In addition to this the tree was loaded
down with private gifts and mementos
Of the Yule-tide season. An excellent
program Of musical and literary selec-
tions was rendered by the young people
Of the neighborhood, after which Santa
appeared and slung presents and coed
things In every direction. At midnight
a splendid supper was served, after
which social dance was enjoyed, the
proceeds going to the purchase Of new
desks for the school. This was the first
Christmas entertainment ever given in
the district, and much credit Is due Prof.
II. A. scoggin, the popular teacher, who
took the initiative in making and carry
Ing out the arrangements.

Christmas Entertainment.

One of the most successful affairs Of
the kind ever given in Condor was the
Christmas tree and entertainment at the
Latter Day Saints church Monday even
ing. A large crowd vas in attendance,
every inch OF floor space being occupied,
and the announcement standing room
only would have been appropriate
sometime before the heentertainment com
menced. Elder Harris called the con-
grcgation 10 order and offered few we'll
chosen remarks which were particularly
appropriate for the occasion. An excel
lent program OF vocal and instrumental
music, recitations, dialogues, ETC., was
then rendered in particularly clever
manner, rejecting much credit on the
young people who took part. Space for
bids separate mention Of the individual
performers, but il is only right to say
that all acquitted themselves nobly.
After the program, which was cut short
on account OF the crowded condition Of
the building, Mr.. and Mrs. Santa Claus
made their appearance and began the
distribution Of Christmasgoods in whole
sale quantities. Every child-and most
Of the older people--was remembered,
and every little heart went pitty-pat as
the gifts and goodies we're passed around.
The occasion was certainly success
fnl one. But the Latter Day Saints will
have to hire the largest hall in town for
the next Christmas entertainment they
have. It they wish to accommodate the
people.
