By this undertaking was first carried on by the business in scattering their orders, buying from terests of Hermiston, assisted by the farmers. But the specialty houses making a business of show came to be regarded as something of a burden, and selling seed of one or two kinds of Hermiston business men withdrew, more or less, their act vegetables, growers can often pick up of the best stock obtainable. ive support.

If they express willingness to back the pro position and the men whom they elect to the board, then the cooperation of all communuity interests, and a sub merging of petty differences will make for a fair that any community might be proud of. This represents an op portunity that can mean only loss to the community if it is disregarded. It is not only a matter of individual in terest, but of cooperative interests of civic and other or ganizations. The American Legion lent its support last year by taking over the amusement end of the show. Other organizations might well follow in its lead.

REGARDING COMMUNICATIONS The Herald is anxious to become a newspaper of real interest to its readers, and every effort will be made to accomplish this purpose. Signed communications from subscribers and readers will be gladly received and if space an ¿interest permits, they will be published. The general policy of newspapers and periodicals everywhere is that all communications printea shall bear the signa ture of the writer, although if the request is made, the signature need not appear in the paper. Such is the policy of the Herald. * Interesting letters from the readers will always receive the careful attention of the editor, and it is hoped that with this reminder of the policy regarding anonymous communications, the Herald may become a spokesman for the people. The people who go away from Hermiston to buy the same goods they could get at home for the same or less money, do not seem t ovalue their own time very highly. Our home town calls on vs to take hold and push it along with our own effort ar.d muscle, instead of sitting on the fence and advising how it should be pushed. Well, there’s one good thing—the bootleggers can't use liquor if it gets much worse than it now because it will eat holes in the bottles. Our feet are made to walk with along the path of pro gress, and not primarily for kicking. -------------------------------------- Man sent to electric chair. Hinih!
