GOOD FURNITURE is tUR DUTY TO YOUR HOME, 1 Ji j nil; cak Modern Furniture Needs In the dining room, In the parlor, in the hall are many places call.ng for indivluual pieces of furniture. For Instance, there are stands of various kinds, hat racks, china closets, book cases. In each of these needs and In many others we have a variety of styles from which to choose. They are both Useful and Ornamental We offer a worth-while collection of table and floor lamps, porch furniture, etc. There is scarcely a limit to the list of Items we carry under this class of furniture. A casual stroll through our displays might suggest exactly what you want if you are undecided. Good Furniture Is Our Pledge to You MONMOUTH HARDWARE J. E. Winegar, Proprietor At the latest reports the Russians were rushing out of Poland as fast as their legs could carry them Threatening showers remind us that hop picking time has rolled around again. The schoolma'am who plans to ex change a revoked certificate for a husband, it is to be hoped will mar ry the equivalent of a meal ticket. The delayed vacationist is apt to run into disagreeable weather. It is claimed the reason they do lot muke clothing out of mohair is that the suits wear too long and harms the business of the tailors, Read your own Herald , r The Sinn Feiners are still at it. They have removed the apparatus from light houses along the coast of Ireland, endangering navigation. The coast country is pretty dry at present but there is no evidence that Franklin Roosevelt in his trip through was able to set any of it en fire. While the daily newspapers have many stories of falling prices on shoes, clothing, sugar, etc., the prospect is, such decreases will be a considerable time reaching us.. Women may find it a hard Strug gle to maintain their rights in Ten nessee but there is still hope. Fy order of the Chief of Police they have been permitted to smoke on the bathing beaches of Long Island. Electric locomotives descending the Rocky Mountain slopes generate electricity that helps other trains up the opposite slopes. Another wonder of electricity. Rattlesnakes in the Ramapoo mountains, twenty five mi!e3 from New York city are as numerous as in the wilds, although they have been professionally hunted for years. The human kind is also quite plenti ful on some of the streets leading off from the Bowery. Judging from the manner in which the thirty sixth state was carriei for the cause, it is not to be denied that militant woman has few things to learn in the line of practical politics. Print paper has recently raised from nine to twelve cents a pound, four times what it ought to be, and as the publisher digs into his pock ets to contribute to the millions in dividual paper makers are accumul ating annually he feels like break ing out into hallelujahs. A woman subscriber urges the Herald to crusade against the wild carrot, the Ui sightly presence of which along the streets and in field and vacant lots is only too apparent. These weeds, which apparently havecome to us from Fastern Ore gon, have taken possession every where. The best way to handle them is for individuals to take hold and clean out their own premises. They should have civic pride enough to do this and sooner or later if it is not done the municipality and county will have to take up the work. A shortage of teachers is threat ened in Portland because the supply bf substitutes is not equal to the number of city teachers who for various reasons are resigning. The resignations of thirty three teachers were accepted recently and now twelve more ask to be re'e.tsed. So great ha bsvn the call for teachers that some have felt privileged to leave one job and accept another for reasons more or less trivial. At tention tas been directed to the state law regulating coi.trects of this kind and the stute supcrirt.m dent is directed to revoke certifi cates when complaint Is mad th:.t teachers have thrown up their con tracts within 60 days of the open ing of school. "1 acknowledge" said Attorney Haste "that the commission1 should be vested with power to lay out the highways of the state. It is the only logical way to conduct the work. Rut the law. In the legis ature it was necessury to get two votes from Dullus to puss the luw creating the highway. To get these votes they had to include Dal las on the highway," There you have the situation in a nutshell. While in a legal sense, Dallas may be entitled to the highway it can not make the same claim for the road to4 Salem. This and the county bond issue were a part of a pro gram to which the whole county agreed. Getting this, Dallas is not entitled to more. The commission is right In stopping all mad work in the county until the whole mat ter is settled, not as punishment, but as plain justice. They have played a clever game in Dallas, They have the county bond issue. Their rights in that matter were not sacrificed as Monmouth's were by a trick in preparing the bond election notice. Rut as for the rest of the program the cards did not break exactly right. They can not get the through highway and the road to Salem as well, as they evidently expected to do, Ten Years Ago mm. 1 Q 1 11 MORLAN & SON Monmouth's largmtt aod most complvU Coiifeeliontpry and Book 8Ur mi F.
