Hood Kiver Is on the pinnacle in the apple world, hut that Is no rea son she can quit hustling. Her uc cens has started hundreds of other localities Into the apple business, and the recent apple shows prove con clusively that soiuri of these other apple districts are obtaining results. This Is no time for Hood Kiver to he Idle lieeause of a feeling of secur ity. Neither Is It the time for fac tional or personal differences to In terfere with the welfare of the city and the valley. Hood Kiver cit izens should get to get her under t lie leaderselp of Home one In whose absolute Integrity and ' ability all have confidence, and pull together and pull hard for the Im provements the city needs, and thus keep up the lead which we already have as the I test little city In the Northwest and the apple center of the country. The city has selected a number of new officials. The Commercial Club his Just chosen new directors.
