Just inside the library window I ran into Dad I had clean forgotten that h«> was there.

Real Enterprise Shown by Merchants A campaign that is bound to pay excellent dividends has been initi ated by the merchants of Chehalis, 110,000 already having been pledged. The purpose is to further impress on residents of the Chehalis trade district the advantages of making Chehalis their trade center. Neon signs on billboards 42 feet in length and 10 feet high, with the slogan. “Chehalis, the shopping cen ter of thousands,” will be construct ed at the entrances of the city. Every week the two newspapers will carry full page advertisements feat uring Chehalis and its advantages as a trade center. A free public dance to everybody in Lewis county mark ed the opening of the campaign and such an affair is planned once a month. People are attracted to the town or community that does things and no better evidence of this is found than in California where people have flocked because enthusiasm is' at a fever pitch. This go-get-'em spirit as shown in Chehalis is needed in Oregon to + Editor's Mail Writes Opinion of Mr. Putnam’s Idea Anyone that would hol«i a grudge as long as the 15-year-old youth that murdered his teacher because she had slapped him three years be fore should be put where his dis eased mind would no longer wreak its lust upon society.______ A victim of a bungling automo bile mechanic insists in a communi cation to a Portland paper that me chanics l*e licensed.

Under the law we have all he wants—central author ity, engineer under its direction, flat tax up to ten mills, and road foremen strictly under control of court. Just why should our center of wealth and population want a larger flat tax if the farmer is willing to pay a special 7 mills for them and up to 17 for the hicks?
