Pickering is a cousin of Mrs. Chal
craft. Mr. Chalcraft took the newly
married couple to Newport where they
spent a few hours enjoying the beauty
and grandeur of Oregon's most fam
ous resort. Newport is gradually
coming to the front as one of the
greatest seaside resorts , on the Pa
cific coast. Newport has all the
other resorts beaten for beauty and
natural attractions. Other places have
more Improvements that cost millions
of dollars but Newport without this
great outlay excels them all for the
plcturesqueneas of her scenery, the
cleanliness of her beaches, the glory
of her green forest and the grandeur
of the great waves that roll in from
the ocean and beat upon Its rock bound
shore. Here you get the pure ozone
that fills your lungs and the rich nerve
building uea-food that makes you feel
like a new being. Here In the sweet
-soft sounds of the Pacific you can
Jileep like the Just sleep.
Bart Robertson Is on a visit io his
old home at Siletz. He used to be the
good looking accomodating clerk In
the Hall Brothers' Store. He now
lijes at Tillamook City. In speaking
of Tillamook and Lincoln counties, he
ays twenty years ago Tillamook, was
about as Lincoln county Is now, but
the push and energy of the Tillamook
people have put their county where it
Is no,w-one of the most progressive
counties in the state. Lincoln county
can do as well or even better if her
People will try. Mr. Robertson says
Newport is much the better resort
:lty. He says nature has made New
port the most beautiful seaside resort
on the Oregon coast and Jf half the
money that was spent in making New
port what it aught to be there would
be no comparison between these two
resort cities. Mr. Robertson will be
kere about a week before returning
home at Tillamook.
Maurice Andersen has bought two
ne lots facing on Egbert Street and
Js now engaged in putting up a nice
four room bungalow. John Thompson

year and the women and children have
a picnic gathering this luclous fruit.

cents per pound for berries and pickers
can make 3.00 and J4.00 per day at
this price. The new owner of the
cannery Is installing new machinery
and everything will bs up to date ex
cept the building and that is to be
built new by another year. This is an
tmportant industry and should be sup
ported by everyone in the community.
Siletz la a great berry country and
there is no reason why a big payroll

The headliner is Miller versus

.northwest champion - of 145, was
I thrown by Charles MUler at Newport
on July 4th In an unofficial match. A
return match has been arraneed. and
the fair board expects to make it an
official one, such that if Amort is
again thrown by Miller, Miller can of

pion. Amort writes as follows: I

Those who saw the match at New-
nort know what is un. as Amort came
down before expecting to match an
ordinary farmer who thought be could
wrestle, but found something different
in' Miller. If we can guess right,
Amort has been doing some training

the iazz. In the Newnort match.

'COME. SOLDIER BONUS BLANKS
BEING SENT OUT
Salem, Oregon, Sept 1- -Special)
Fifty thousand application blanks for
making application for the Oregon
State Loan and Bonus which was
voted to Oregon's ex-service men by
the people last June, are now being
distributed to every part of the State.
These blank forms, upon which the
applicants must establish their elig-
ty for the bonus, are being sent to
American Legion Posts of which there
ore 104 in the State with the request
that the postB give them to all eligible
ex service men. ....
This action was taken by the State
Bonus Commission In order to save
considerable time in getting the bonus
and loan Into the hands of the ex
service men. The Initial bond issue
of $5,000,000.00 already Is being floated
bids are to be opened October 10th
and tlio Commission expects to have

I the Commission, hopes to have a lArge
number of checks ready for distribu
tion the moment the funds are realized
from the sale ot bonds. Steps have
I been taken by the Commission to in
I terest the bond buying market of the
entire United States. The bonds are
to be sold at par or above and not
to exceed six percent interest and the'
Commission expects to sell at an Inter
est rate of about five and one-half per
cent. t
The administrative force to handle
this big task of passing upon appli
cations has already been created in
the U. S. National Bank Building at
Salem, headed by Harry C. Brumbaugh
an overseas veteran. The necessary
funds for an energetic administration
of the law have also been provided.
Commissioners say that the loan fea
ture, which appeals to a majority of
the ex-service men, necessarily will be
a slower process but that (lie Com
mission -will continue to follow its
past policy of avoiding any and all
avoidable delays.
Only an unexpected suit to test the
constitutionality of the law will now
prevent payment of several thousand
claims in November. Such a suit has
not been launched by the Commission
ers because ot their belief In the con
stitutionality of the law and failure of
the bonds to Bell alone might make
such a suit necessary.
