Cen ten nial Port land Or e gon for est ry build ing not ed fair hon or stat ue suc cess
THE CENTENNIAL.
The American people have always been glad that Lewis and Clark made this long, hard journey.
That was just one hundred years ago.
In this year of 1905, the American people are holding a centennial fair in honor of the Lewis and Clark journey.
The Fair is at Portland, Oregon, because Lewis and Clark reached the Pacific Ocean in Oregon.
At the Fair, there is a statue of Sacajawea and her baby.
This statue is put there because Lewis and Clark wrote in their books: "The wonderful Bird-Woman did a full man's share to make the trip a success, besides taking care of her baby. She was one of the best of mothers."
Some day, you can read these books for yourself, and learn more about Sacajawea and Captains Lewis and Clark.
[Ill.u.s.tration: THE FORESTRY BUILDING, LEWIS AND CLARK CENTENNIAL]
The forestry building is made from the large trees for which Oregon is noted.
Fort Clatsop was built from the large trees of Oregon, too, but the soldiers did not know how to make such a fine building as this one hundred years ago.
