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.

Representatives of the Standard

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

taken up but no action was taken
