N ewberg vo lum e xxxm DRIVE FOR MEMORIAL PROGRESSING NICELY N EW BE R G , Lists of Subscriptions by Sat urday Noon at Latest The drive for the funds required to erect the new American Legion Community Memorial building has progressed more slowly during the past week, but has been going stead ily forward. Mr. Parrett states that be is unable to give out the totalB at this time as the figures are not avail able, and any estimate which he might give out would be purely a guess on his part. He urges all so licitors to turn in all actual subscrip tions not later than next Saturday noon so that he can check up and as certain Just where they are in the drive. Several large concerns have not made subscriptions yet and are considering the matter. These should help considerably in swelling the to tal when they come in. The outside communities have in some cases done exceptionally well and there are many encouraging things in connection with the drive. Several persons have said that New berg cannot fail and that they will do their utmost to see that the fund is raised. Some outsiders whose in terest might be considered small ljave given subscriptions which are quite generous. Prom this time on it will be large ly a matter of picking up the loose ends around, but there are still some sections which 'have been practically unsolicited so far. Dundee and 8pringbrook have done remarkably well Iff the matter of subscriptions and it remains for the other commun ities and the people of Newberg to complete their canvass, One pleasing feature about the driv* is the gener al spirit which seems to be favorable to the project. Very few persons have refused to give and doubtless these will be rounded up before the drive Is,completed. Certainly there is no one in the community so small as to refuse to help erect a memorial to the boys who died in their de fense, especially in view of the fact that this memorial is to supply the greatest need of„our qomraunUy. If there Is such a one he should either have some mighty good reasons fat- not donating or he should not feel badly If later he is classed as a slacker In the community. We have not heard of any reasons offered by any persons why this mem orial should not be erected. We do not believe there are any such rea sons. In fact we have never heard of any appeal which would interest everyone in a community from so many angles as does this appeal for a memorial community building. Any local organization will find use for this building. Any farmers or ganization will find times when they will need to use It. Churches will use It. Lodges wills use It. Clubs will use It. It will bejused for com munity gatherings of evefry kind and so in one way and another every person in the surrounding country will be benefitted by its construc tion. And then a feeling of loyalty to our Legion boys should inspire Its financing because of what they have done for us. Let us give them this place in which to hold their meetings and where they can go for recreation and rest. Pew appeals can count their needs from so many angles as this gnd consequently this appeal should-* meet with the universal en dorsement of the public. If you have not been solicited, don’t watt for the committee but make your subscrip tion to someone at once. There should be a goodly number of larger sub scriptions turned in yet and the smaller subscriptions amounting to $25 and 910 each should run up into the hundreds. Let’s everyone make a last final boost to see that the fund is raised and the building assured. TURN n r THEIR NAMES Another call is made for those knowing the names of any who made the supreme sacrifice in the late world war whose home was in this vicinity to report to the committee at once. Any soldier whose parents lived in this community should be considered In this class and their names should be reported. The com mittee is very desirous of having the list complete so that no name may be omitted from the honor tablet to be placed In the memorial building. Don’t fall to report any names even though you may think the committee already has them. Don’ t put it off but do It as soon as you read this, or you may forget to do it at all. Please consider this as an especial appeal to you and whether the party whose name you know was a relative or particular friend or not report any of whom you may have Informa tion to Mrs. Mary K. Evans. 7 ARM BUREAU MEETING SATURDAY. APRIL FIRST Next Saturday a meeting of the Parra Bureau club la to be held in the Oregon Growers building, the old sash and door factory, on north Main street. It Is desired that every mem ber attend this meeting if possible. So notify your neighbor, whether a member or not.

Representatives of the Standard Oil Co. were on hand ajid made a request that the franchise fee put on the oil trucks be reduced from $120 a year to $40. One gentleman acted as spokesman and he stated that they had not been asked a truck license in proportion to this in any town. He cited several California towns and said that they were w illing to pay in proportion to what others .were charged. Mayor Calkins spoks in behalf of the council in favor o f the franchise fee as set, and gave as his principal arguments the fact that the city must raise its revenues from some such sources and that as ths oil companies did not pay towards any of the many donations which were solicited from the local busi ness institutions, they felt they should not object to paying this. Councilman Ormond moved that the franchise fee be left as it stood and this motion was carried. W. H. Dean then appeared and asked the council to grant him a water tap on his ranch near the city spring in exchange for which he Would agree to allow the city to traverse hjs land in connection with maintaining their water line. This was referred to the water committee. The city marshal was instructed to see that various designated proper ties around town were cleaned up. The council voted to name Wednes day.

In connection with this discussion, the question of extending the city limits to the river bank was taken up but no action was taken on the matter. The city attorney presented an or dinance dealing with the re-warding of the city to make the various wards comply with the change made in the voting precincts as defined by the county.
