The Hubbard Enterprise hit the nail on the head as regards an attraction for the big Fourth of July celebration at Aurora next.July. It isn’t too early to start training, as Aurora’s celebra tion will be state wide. We want to add an amendment to the suggestion and take in Donald, St. Paul, Macks- burg and Molalla. Here’s the Enter prise’s suggestion. Let’s begin to or ganize and practice. “ A boys chorus organized each for Hubbard, Aurora and Woodburn- and consolidated next July as part of a Fourth of July celebration singing Nat ional songs would ‘be the biggest draw ing card that could be put on the bill.*’. EDITORIAL E. G. Robinson suggests that it isn’t too early for Aurora to plan a magnifi cent flower float to enter the parade at Portland's next Rose Show.

Don’t mean to insinuate the paper needs so much improving, as Me Gill, Sr. is an editor of rare ability and his paper has always been a worthy one. 1 ALCOHOL-3 PER GENT. ; Mothers Know That Genuine Castoria ||i AVe^eiablePrsparationfcrAs • f similatin^thefbod byRegula- ’f tingthcStomaffe and Bowels^ •*-) Always Bears the 1!

It is to close one’s eyes to the light and live in per petual darK ne ss .” —John Wanamaker, ot We are glad that Julius L. Meier, President of the 1925 Fair Board, has came out with a statement similar to that advocated by the Observer a month ago. Mention it as “ Oregon 1925” in stead of “ Portland 1925” . As we stat ed in a previous issue, if it is an Oregon Fair, backed financially by Oregon and boosted by Oregon people, and Oregon is to benefit thereby, then it is selfish i n Portland to claim it.

W IL L -S N Y D E R C O , THE STORE OF MERIT " iäSäSSSfev Champion Ewe at Live Stock Exposition ] m The Pacific International Live Stock Exposition which will be held at, North Portland this year,, November 5-12, will probably contain the largest sheep show in its history. Manager O. M. Plummer believes that there mar be 1000 head. In view of the fact that all the fairs and shows in the Northwest this year are showing greatly increased sheep exhibits, his prophecy is apt to come true. The animal shown above is "Oregon Lassie,” the champion yearling ewe in the Cheviot breeds, owned by R. A. Templeton of Halsey, Oregon. Western Oregon has long been famous for its middle wool sheep, and already this year notable winnings have been made by exhibits from this section at fairs and exDositions throughout Canada and the eastern part of the United States. Perhaps it was not altogether a fable about Jason adventuring his life in search of the golden fleece. While the wool gfo" ers of the North-n est have had a hard time since the war, the ultimate future of wool and mutton pro duction is certain to be financially profitable. The day will corns when no farm will be considered fully stocked without a small flock of sheep. There is bound to be a great demand for breeding stock and the 'Pacific International will furnish an opportunity unequaled for securing foundation stock. * It is very rare th a t the average newspaper boosts its business, but gives quan tities of space in boosting the affairs of others. Somebody suggested th a t it was time for the news papers of the country to ad opt a week in which their own business should be giv en precedent, and the Ob server thoroughly endorses the idea. The date set is the second week in November, from the 7tli to the 12th, including *that great world event, Ar mistice Day. The official title for the week will be “ Subscribe for Your Home Town Paper Week. c ig a r e tte s 2 0 fa r l 5 * New One-W ay Fares California The Molalla Pioneer and the Canby News,, editors of both papers, seem to have a sore spot, probably justified, over their respective towns, or town officials. ; Among other interesting reading the Molalla editor says:— “ So far as the writer is concerned tkis' air of condescension in dealing with him is going to stop.
