One Tear ....................... ..........— >2 08 8 « M onths------------- ------------ CONGRATULATIOr.S Hermiston has had her annual clean up day and such enthusiasm and zestful labor as was displayed in these parts has never heretofore been seen. I t was remarkable the interest everyone displayed through out the day In the business of gett ing the town in spick and span shape. The w riter saw. by actual count, three Implements out In sight during the course of the day. Two of these were on a truck Just pass ing through town. A careful sur vey taken last Wednesday evening revealed practically the same amount of trash In the streets, the same old tobacco cans, the same weeds grow ing In the same places the same old shacks cluttering up the view, the alleys with the same accumulation of d irt and rubbish that were there all last w inter. Whoever was In charge of this little community affair deserves all the praise and credit that can be given them. It was announced pre viously that the date had been desig nated by the local commercial asso ciation, so to that organization evi dently goes the credit for the very remarkable manner in which the event was carried thrugh to a close. If this Is a fair example of the or ganisation ab ility and leadership of that body then we doff our bonnets to them In h u m .lj respect and ad miration. this long. The weather man evidently had In mind the fact that Hermiston was to have a clean up day on the tw enty- seventh of March, for he surely doled -dns jo ajiu jo gjnoif bai ». vu auios jno erb weather. It must have bean a disappointment to him when he saw how u tterly wasted his efforts were on the citizenry of the town. I t was a disappointment to some of the real of us, too, Mr. Weatherman. After seeng the rubbish, d irt and Junk ac cumulating in the streets, on vacant lota, and around buildings for some six or eight months past, we were naturally looking forward with more than ordinary anticipation to the day when It would be cleaned up. I f Hermiston ever decides to have aonther clean up day, there are some of us w ithin the confines of this fair city that are going to swallow the Idea w ith a little salt, and not a sin gle grain either, but a substantial amount of it.

Mullins’ Confectionery and Barber Shop WE ARE ITELE TO STAY BALL There are two Indeiieiident theorle- as to the origin of civilization. The older theory Is that the human inHul Is such that, given an opportunity, Il will produce a civilization. But this dues not acconnr for the similarity ot customs found In all clvlllzaliuns, and so there exists ttie alternate theory that civilization started from a dell nite center, from which It spread In his book, "In the Beginning: Tin Origin ot Clvillziitioii," Elliot Smith llte cldcf ex|Hinenl ol the latter theory sen, this center in upi>er Egypt, on the banks of the Nile, and the tin» about 4UU0 B. <’.
