HONOR THE COLORS We were not a little disappointed Monday to see that so few men re moved their hats when the colors passed. Till- formality may be held by some to be a very noxious form of sabre rattling. ami cheap patrio tism. But is H* We think not. After all, our flag derives it < sacretlness and beauty not from its battle records or its color combina tions- -irreproachable and handsome though they be- but from the fact that it stands as the striking symbol of the highest and most cherished ideals and aspirations of the Ameri can people ami their government. It seems to us, therefore, that every person, proud of being a cit izen of the I'nited States, would welcome an opportunity to show respect to the flag. It is a quiet, unboastful, dignified way one has to pledge oneself again to the priv ileged task of supporting the tenets of “Liberty and Justice to All." Ideals so great that they are worthy of the supreme sacrifice so many have made in their defense. The salute of the flag is a small matter, but its significance is great. The big celebrntion parade was the best ever held in the many years that Hillsboro has had Fourth of July celebrations. E ve r y mem ber of the committee should be con gratulated in making it such a suc cess. Further, those who entered floats in the parade should be com mended for the spirit shown in put ting in so much time and effort in making really worth while showings. If the Stanfield bill providing for a land grant tax refund had been passed before May 21 there might have been a different story to tell about the primary election. Eighteen counties in Oregon and one in Wash ington will be reimbursed to the ex tent of $5,000,000, and the voters would have been appreciative. Girl, 7, Crosses Atlantic Alone headline. We saw many a big, strong, healthy man on our way across in war times who did not care whether he got across or not when the demon seasickness got a hold on him. Firecrackers are blamed for a dis astrous fire at l‘e Ell, Wash., and the estimated loss is placed around $100,000. The absolute elimination of firecrackers and fireworks would be a beneficial measure to the pub lic in general. The fire hydrant facilities in the vicinity of the Shute park are very poor, the nearest one being at Ninth and Oak streets.' This is three blocks from the big auditorium and an investment the size of that is entitled to the best of protection. Coolidge doesn't seem to be far ing so well, what with reverses in senate and in primary elections. His candidate lost out in North Dakota and as a result is “keeping cool with Coolidge.” If President Coolidge should veto the tax refund, we can imngine a few becoming hot with Coolidge in stead of his famous campaign slo gan. __________________ The American Legion magazine has been changed to a monthly from a weekly and is a publication of which the great organization can well be proud. A FUTURE IN FARMING Thirty-two thousand dollars worth of cherries from Eola hill thia son- eon shows the possibilities of the county when specialized agricultural products are added to the staples of wheat, oats and hay. The future of this country and the entire Willamette valley lies in such products. With population in the West steadily increasing, farms must be subdivided nnd mory in tensively cultivated, while orchard tracts replace the fir and oak trees on favorably located hills. The change will he a slow one— yet is coming. A drive through the Dundee orchards or on Eola Crest or in the Sheridan highlands shows the process of improvement going on.— McMinnville Telephone-Register. Sell Many Chevrolets The 0.
