pay Clover “cel That Complies • With Washington Law Á K THEODORE ROOSEVELT left memories that are dear to the hearts of every true American citi zen. He was typ cal of American energy and spirit ar.d his life proved to what heights ore may rise from a lowly start. He said: “ If you would be sure you are be ginning right, begin to save.” To this advice we add the invita tion to start your bank account at First National Bank MONMOUTH, OREGON 1 oys have a game schedlucd with Monmouth high for Friday evening, February 17. The victims ”of the mumps have returned to school. Only one new case has developed so far. Despite the bail weather and roads, a large bunch of looters from Airlie witnessed the basket trail gime at Fall City Saturilay even ing. Our boys met defeat by a score of 35 to 12, but our girls won by a score of 14 to 5. There are three new pupils in the Primary room. They are Ar thur Bose, Evelyn Staats and Mar garet Byerley. ELKINS The Student Body elected new officers for this ttrm Monday. The new officers are: Marjorie Tedrow, president; Clell Kerber, vice presi dent; Ruth Tetherow, secretary: Levi Oleman, treasurer; Tommy McFIdowney, sergeant at arms and Frank Loughary, censor. Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Ray who have had a touch of “ Hu" are now recov ering. The Parent Teacher Association will hold a meeting at the school- house Friday afternoon, February 17. The meeting was to have been held last Friday but was postponed because of so much sickness in the neighborhood. Mildred Tetherow and Pauline Blodgett have been absent from school because of sickness. An official tester was at Luckia- mute Farm Tuesday and Wednesday retesting Luckiamute Noble I.ou. The Student teachers beginning their practice teaching this week are: Violet Quick, Portland; Emma Kotan, Scio; Bessie Jones, Portland; Virginia Cole, Stanfield. I. H. Loughary left last Saturday for Eureka, Humboldt county, Cal ifornia, with the forty head of Reg istered Jersey Bulls and a few fe males which will be distributed mostly in that county and a few in other parts. Two of these bulls are from the herd of F. Loughary and Son and one from the herd of R. O. Dodson. Although no high prices were paid by the California people, nearly all male Jerseys of the state were taken, w hich is a great help to the breed. After the cattle are distributed, Mr. Loughary will visit Southern California and then attend a Dairy men’s meeting at Davis on the 23rd. Elkins High School lost a good student, Nicholas Nelson, who is now attending the Salem High School. Mrs. Chloe A S eymnur spent the week end visiting friends in Dallas and doctoring the severe cold with which she has been suffering for several weeks. She returned Mon day with her cold nearly gone. The Young People’s Sunday School Class is to be entertained at a Val entine party at the home of Mr. Frank Loughary Saturday evening, February 18. w ithin ti e coming year. Ow ing to the use of the road funds before they were actually re- ceived we were not able to do much work this past year but there are now no outstanding warrants against this fund and we hope to accomplish more for our streets in 1922. The two tracts of land on Main street east of the railroad tracks which were taken in last year on delinquent assessments have not been redeemed and are still in the possession of the city. On one of them is two houses which bring in rental money to assist in defraying expenses, past and f Jture. On the other of these tracts the Council has had established the pump house which stood formerly on West street and which has been now turned to a city hall and its conven ient location appears to be appre ciated by the public. In 1922 we plan to ask the vot ers of the city to approve of a new city charter. The old charter granted in 1899 has become obso lete in many ways and the new in strument is designed to enable the city to handle its increasing respon sibilities with greater convenience. Respectfully submitted, O. A. Wolvertcn, Mayor. E sure you buy pure clover seed this season, B seed that is up to W ashington State standard. Do you know that it is quite possible for clover seed to contain as many as 600 bue» horn seeds to the pound and yet grade better than 99j pei nt pure? Clover seed con taining anything like such a quantity of buckhom or other nox ious seeds is prohibited in Washington state by law. Get the fullest value for your money. Bu IttKS CLOVER AND GRASS SEEDS C o m p ly in g w ith W a s h in g to n S ta te L aw Don't buy clover and grass seed;, unless they are positively (piar- antced to comply folly w ith the : tate law of Washington. Thin law is for your protection. Sec that you get that protection. Lilly's well-known clover and gr. \s seeds are sold with an abso lute guarantee that they comply fully with the Washington state law. Don’t foolishly tt>k results with cheap seed for the sake of a few cents a pound. Pay a fair price for reliable seed. In sist on Lilly’s Seed every time.
