The workmen's compensation and
the anti-oleomargarine bills appear

of the Income tax measure passed
by a large majority in Multnomah
county, but it is believed that the
other parts of the state will bring
it down to a place where it will be
saved.
Interest in the •lection in all
parts of the country was running
high and radio helped to increase
this interest. The chamber of com­
merce rooms were filled with those
interested from the time when the
returns were first broadcasted at
4:30 until about midnight. The lo­
cal returns were also received there
for the press.

Orie Johnson, 78, of Sherwood,
was killed Monday evening in Sher­
wood when he was struck by an
automobile driven by M. A. Kil­
patrick. Tbe accident is thought to

Johnson was born in New England.
Kilpatrick wax coming down the
hill in Sherwood with his car in
gear and was said to have been
going only at a speed of from 15
to 18 miles and hour, He did not
see Mr. Johnson until he was about
12 feet away and he says that Mr.
Johnson was looking in the same di-
rection the car was going. He
turned out trying to avoid striking
him, but the victim turned in the
same direction and wax struck by
the fender, throwing him down.
The inquest wax heard in Sher­
wood today by Coroner George
Limber.

"Soup! Soup!"
This wax the exclamation mnde
by one little grummar school boy as
he came into the lunch room at the
grade school Tuesday noon. M P.

and an Argus representative were
there to get lunrh and see what

An average of 60 pupils arc
served every noon by Mrs. Frank
Kerns. Soup is served for 5 cents
and so is cocoa. It is hoped to
give some crackers along with the
soup in the near future. This ser-
vice pays for itself and is no ex-
pense to the district, The children
furnish their own bowls. The only
expense to the district was 120

tials.
Undernourished children without
means are taken care of and if for
no other reason than to help them
the work is worth while. The warm

Although Hilhi was given the
biggest scare of the season yes-
terday by the Tillamook cheese-
makers they were able to put
across three touchdowns, and the
final score was 18 to 0, Friday
afternoon on the local high school
field.
Tillamook threatened in the first
quarter, when they got the ball to
Hillsboro’s 1 yard line, with two
downs to make it in. It all went
for naught, however, when a Tilla­
mook back let the wet ball go
through his hands. The cheese­
makers kept Goodman's men busy
throughout the game and gave them
a real fight.
The first quarter ended 0 to 0,
but in the second quarter the Hilhi
scoring machine started to function
with the result that one touchdown
was put across. “Dutch” Goodin,
the heavy fullback, lunged through
the Tillamook team for about 15
yards and Frost carried it over the
other two yards. Ingles failed to
convert.
Long Run Made
The Armistice Day parade in
Hillsboro this year promises to be
the biggest one ever held, according
to plans of the Rotary club com-
mittee in charge. It will start
promptly at 11 o’clock from First
and Main streets. The committee
in charge is composed of W. W.
Boscow, J. L. Anderson and M. B.
Signs.
The following committee will or-
ganize the high school section: Miss
Tennessee Weatherred, Girl Re-
serves; Mr. Rice, freshmen; Miss
Fusselman, sophomores; Miss Link­
later, juniors; .Miss Dunham, sen-
iors.
The parade is under the super-
vision of the Rotary club and they
have made an appeal to the various
organizations to be represented. The
schools will take part as fully as
possible, teachers in the grade
schools will organize their own
classes and accompany them and
will try to see that as many as
possible carry flags. They will line
up in order of grades, primary lead­
ing, on the north side of the court-
house square.
The line of march is from the
courthouse square on First street,
east on Main to Second, south on
Second to Washington, east on

Third to Main, west on Main to

erans, Spanish war veterans, Ameri­
can Legion, Women's Relief Corps,
auxiliaries, fraternal and social or­
ganizations, Girls Reserves, Boy
Scouts and school children.
The next touchdown came in the
third quarter on a spectacular 60-
yard run by “Shorty” Long, the
speedy little half, who has been
the mainspring in upsetting the
championship hopes of several
teams this year.

Three
Republicans
To
Represent
County in Next House of
Representatives
Hillsboro and Washington county
polled the heaviest vote in its his­
tory at the general election Tues­
day, in which the threatened La
Follette inroads came to naught. A
good 75 per cent of the voters
turned out to cast their ballots.
Many voters were sworn in at the
last minute.
The race which was probably of
more interest to the voters of
Washington county than any other
was that in which J. E. (Jap)
Reeves defeated George Alexander
for sheriff by a wide majority,
Reeves, who is declared to be the
best sheriff the county ever had,
made no effort to secure the of­
fice in a campaign. Further, there
probably isn't a better liked man
in the county than Sheriff Alex­
ander, but it is conceded by every­
one that had he made a change in
his force there would have been
no question of his election.
The electorate returned William

Edward J. Ward of Gaston de-
feated Robert L. Stevenson, Demo­
crat, for the office of county judge
by a big majority. Edward C.

Democrat, for county clerk, but he
had reason to know that Sellers
was in the race.

defeated Dr. G. F. Via, Democrat,
for coroner by more than two to
one. W. F. Boley for assessor, E.
B. Sappington for treasurer, and
Earl Hobbs for surveyor, won out
without opposition.
No complete unofficial count has
been made by the clerk’s office on
the measures on the ballot, but the
vote against the repeal of the in­
come tax was large as was to be
expected. The workmen’s compen­
sation and naturopath bills were
snowed under.

Some
Very Constructive Work
In Community
A working program for the future
for the chamber of commerce will
probably result from the meeting
of the chairmen of all chamber
committees in the chamber rooms
Tuesday night.
The plan calls for a special order
of business at chamber meetings
for different committees, and also
for complete report at the annual
meeting on what they have done
•nd what they expect to do. This
is expected to crente more interest
on the part of the committees and
should make next year ono of ac­
complishment for the Hillsboro
chamber.
One of the first committees to
have a special order of business is
the highwnys and roads committee,
of which M. P. Cady is chnirman.
From this meeting it is hoped to
establish a definite road program
that will improve the main arteries
loading into town, ns well as such
routes as the Tillamook shortcut and
others. Retail trade, schools, com­
munity relations, civic improvement
and municipal affairs are a few of
the committees that will have a
special order of business in the near
future and before the annual meet­
ing.
The Women’s Service club,
well as other organizations, were
given the use of the chamber of
commerce committee room for nny
meetings.
Attention was called to Red Cross
enrollment week, beginning Novem­
