Vol. XXIV. No. 46. TILLAMOOK, OREGON, MARCH 14, 1912. A Valuable Faculty. Determined effort to save develops or strengthens a valuable faculty ; namely, the faculty of drawing the line between ne cessary and useless expenditure. Think of it : one is better Isn’t it usually the thing off without that takes the money he should save ? Hence the double benefit of the saving habit : First, learning to deny one’s self harmful indulgences ; and second, acquir ing a property through little triumphs over self. Ask yourself now if there is any reason why you should not become a money saver at COUN tv tillamook county bank IS» TILLAMOOK CITY. O RE. TILLAMOOK JOTTINGS Smelt 5c. at the Fish Market.

The school board was authorized to issue warrants for this purpose, but as they have not found ready sale, the board thought it would be better to raise the money by a bond issue. Mr. H. S, Hewitt and J. H Smith, of Portland, have recently pur chased a number of choice lots at Barview near the Life Saving Sta tion on Garibaldi Beach. It is the plan of these gentlemen to build 10 cottages to start with and aa many more as the demand requires having already shipped in a car load of lumber and hardware to start work at once. It is too bad the lumber men of Tillamook can't get down to business and get these orders, but as long as they hold the prices of lumber up to where purchasers can buy in Portland and save money, after paying freight charges, the Tillamook lumber merchants can't expect to get the business.- Ralph Ackley.
