Every knock is a boost, it is
said, and election returns often
seem to verify the saying.
Owinjr to the Review proint? to
nress so much earlier this week
local news matter is somewhat
1 curtailed.
Men frequently make promises
tlmt more mature judgment or
urealer consideration impel them
to retract.
Mistakes are the common lot
of the human family. But what
often seems mistakes to some
peoplo appear just the reverse to
others. Una must nave the in
side facts to justly judge.
The return of capital punish
ment ib ono of the measures
bo voted UDon today, Friday
Why such a step backward, wine
the passage of this measure
would mean, should bo taken is
difficult to understand.
In the spelling contest
North school tlio three success
ful spoilers were Andrew Hasoy
Otillia Kutzkey and Clyclo Mon
tnea. Thcso met at James John
High with eighteen others from
the 8th grades on the Peninsula.
After spoiling the allotted time
Oitillia Kutzkoy and Clyde Mon
tago were numbered among the
successful five who had not
missed n word. Thcso will moot
with others for tho final tryout
at tho Auditorium at 8 p. m
on May 28.
Voter of tho I'oninsulu, if you
want to nominate a man for
County Commissioner who
familiar with our territory, wit
our surroundings, with our wants
and requirements, vote for A.
A. Muck. Ho known, and ho
other candidate is so well in
formed. He has done much for
tho Peninsula, and will do muc
more it elected. Why make a
change at this time? It was
largely through his efforts that
tho Greeley street project wsa
made possible. Tho Peninsula
is surely entitled to reprosonta
tion in the Commisisoncr's of
ice. And Mr. Muck has tin
doubtedly been a good man for
this section, and if reflected
is needless to state that ho wil
continue such. Why taku
chanco and voto for some other
candidate not so greatly interes
ted in tho Peninsula's welfare!
It is a good time 10 show an
proclntion of tho good work Mr.
Muck has accomplished.
W. C. Aldorson, formerly
principal of the St. Johns schools.
a charter member of Doric Lodge
and a tast chancellor of Iiolmen
Lodge, is a candidate to succeed
himself as County Supcrinton

hall was attractively decorated
with flowers and Japnneso lan
terns. Tho program was inter
pursed with Bongs, drills, dia
logues and duets. Mr. Charles
Diamond of the G. F. Johnson
Piano Company and of the Dia
mond Orchestra lent interest by
his playing and cheerful respon
ses to encores. The children
showed careful training and
ability. Splendid arguments
were presented by the speakers
to the parents as tho ones most
vitally interested in tho educa

might further bo said that the
money obtained for Portland is

are not asking an increase of
salary but that tho salaries do
not return to a prewar basis.

I told you that you would thank me for urging you to
get new linoleum for your kitchen. Why, my "girl" keepa
the kitchen so clean that I can go in there now with my

It was worth more than it cost us to freshen up our
