It Is after all only going back to the
custom or 100 years ago.
Count Harrach, however. Is not the
real originator of the movement.
Borne months ago the authorities of a
small town In Bohemia attempted to
deal with the same question in a very
summary manner. Convinced of the
physical evils resulting from thus ex
posing the head, the council passed an
ordinance prohibiting the practice under
penalty of a fine of one crown (20
cents), the money to go to charity. But
the citizens wouldn't stand for any such
rulings and It was found impossible to
enforce the ordinance. But now that a
personage of the great social eminence
of Count Harrach has taken the matter
up, the result may be different.

A kwn-hill haul has been the cause of the rapid growtti of
many a city. Bay City is down hill from almost the entire
county of Tillamook. It is located on the only road that
runs north and south through the county. The mere fact
that every road from the mountaina, from the north an4
from the south, leads directly into Bay City la sufficient to
warrant a rapid and steady growth from this time OB forever.
Timber from the forests must come to Bay City to b
shipped by rail or water; the dairy products will -
shipped via Bay City. All resorters who visit Bayoceaa
Park next year will have to stop at Bay City. One year
from now the improvements in Bay City will be great enough
for us to almost guarantee a net return on the purchase of
property now, of from 25 per cent to 100 per cent. Tfc
destiny of Bay City is as certain as the tides. , '
