Consequently the plant is in nhape for the best of service this week and in the fu ture. The result of getting copy from correspondents and ad vertisers in early has been gratifying to us and we find that it is a material aid in giving the best service to th«- county, For the best result» we still urge the necessity of sending copy in early. Last minute news events at the court house and elsewhere flood in and make a mass of work at the last. Early news and advertising copy is of great value to the newspaper that is straining every nerve to give the best- of service. Closing lime on advertis ing is Wednesday noon, but we want it on Monday and Tuesday when possible. We thank you for your splendid co-operation. ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ STAR ATHLETE HAS • Hilhi j Losrer in, a Close Came to GOVERNOR WOULD Newberg Team A NARROW ESCAPE HAVE INCOME TAX — Jack Rushlow Falls From the The Hillsboro union high school Governor Patterson Delivers a basketball team lost a thrilling en Special Message Yesterday 9 counter to the fast Newberg high quintet last Thursday night 15 to TO COST ABOUT $17,000.00 SKULL, WRIST FRACTURED 17.
