The idea is to get together, pull together, push together and boost tbe county together. Nehalem was re presented by some of its lead ing and progressive citizens and Bay City bad a good re presentation of live wires, with a »l<-gati, “Here to boost, pull grid push.” Every speak er was in hearty accord with the movement to “Get together and work together” for the up building of the entire county, the only difference of opinion being as to whether it should be a league of commercial clubs in Tillamook County, or whether other organizations, such as the Granges, should be invited to co-operate in the organiza tion.
