WORK HARD AND

That overworked bromide, "Kter
nal vlscllance Is the price of liberty,"
Is merely u specific application of a
(,'eneral truth, which, applied In an
other direction, should read: "Eter
nal hustling Is the price of top posi
tion." 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. Kls;ht
now Is t lie very time for everyone to
take a fresh grip and start a united
pull for everything atid anything
that will he of benefit to Hood Kiver
and the Hood Kiver Vallev.
