Chambers Vice President Cashier First National Bank MONMOUTH, OREGON Senator Patterson is one o f the principal leaders of the upper house and through the exercise of his po litical sagacity and legislative abil ity has a large influence upon leg islation, probably second to no GO TO member except Moser. He is a •.vise member and his wisdom is not new upon him, for he occupied a similar position of leadership when he was in the senate 25 years ago.

For School Books and Supplies MONMOUTH, OREGON TOC The financial report o f the city for 1920 on another page has a number o f interesting features. It gives, among other things, the total cost of the gravity water sys tem, and the total for gravel and road work. The amount o f fines collected, $101 is also unusual. Since Marshal Stewart took to the trail it appears the amount of fines collected is twice as great as the total collected during the pre vious records o f the city. IN SU RAN CE! , ....
