say about the city at the mosth of the
| Columbia:
During my visit in Astoria | was
very gratified to note the progressive
spirit of the banks and citizens in that
community. and was very much inn
pressed with the present state of de-
velopment of the port and the plans
which they have for the future. In
my trip across Young's Bay was par
ticularly impressed with the possibili-
ties for development in that section.
The fact that one of the large indus
tries has already procured site in
that section for its future development
is sufficient evidence that there is a
possibility of making that district.
which has lain more or less dormant
for many years a more active adjunct
to AstOria's present industrial activi-
ties
astoria is certainly to be congrat-
uIated upon it's magnificent docks and
elevator system, which will be a great
factor in the development of that city
as an important wheat and flour dis
tributing point, as well as a great ma
val repairing station and rendezvous.

Then using these letters, they were
to make words and finally end up

the prize Of a stick of candy for
