There is this to be said about the
road to Bayocean, the Bayocean peo-
pie are not asking one cent of the tax
payers’ money to improve the roads
in that seaside resort. All it wants is
a road to the Bayocean property.
Eavocean ha. gone ahead and con­
structed it, own roads, having already
eight mile, of hard surface road, and
many mile, of graded roads.

It will be interesting to know that
Xamhill County has appropriated
$iS,ooo for the Grand Ronde road
This is good now, for Tillamook
County, for with that part of the road
improved, and $15,000 expended next
year on the road at Dolph by this
county, this long delayed improve
ment will be a great benefit to both
counties and the auto travel into this
county will greatly increase.

We were asked not lonk since why
the people of Tillamook county dis-
criminateed against Bayocean in not
giving it a way out. hy one of th<
large taxpayer,, who is not interested
in that place. One reason is became
the Bayocean people were not on
hand and did not demand their right'
at the right time. and. probably, be
cause they did not have the “pnir
other places had. and was placed or
the "watchful waiting' li,t. But is nr
use to complain now. if rhe people o*
this county will give Bavocean r
square deal and a way out in the neat
future Bavocean ia entitled to that
after waiting for so many years. Con
sidering that Bavocean ha, improved
it, own roads and put down miles o*

Pretty Wedding at Bay City.
One of the most beautiful weddings
that has ever occurred in Bay City
took place at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Salon Schiffmann Wednesday
evening at eight o’clock Dec. 2. 1914,
when the second daughter Esther
Florence was united in marriage to
Archie Bcebehiser son to Mr. and
Mr,. Jule Bcebehiser.
The home was beautifully decorated
in evergreen, ferns and white garl­
ands. Promptly at eight o’clock Miss
Maud Moon began playing the wed­
ding march "Mendelsohn” when the
bridal party entered the parlor and
took their places under the beautiful
decorated arch from which a white
w edding bell was suspended.
Little Delma Schiffmann, sister of
the bride, acted as ring bearer, Zelpha
Schiffmann also a sister of the bride,
bridesmaid. Mr. Harley Witt as
groomsman. •
The bride wore a pretty gown
_ of
ivory satin and shadow lace trimmed
with silver spangel trimming and
carried a boquet of white chrysan­
themums, the bridesmaid wore a
gown of white shadow lace over pink,
the groom and groomsman were both
attired in the conventional black.
Rev D. Julian Becker the new pas­
tor of the Union Church of Bay City
officiated. The ring ceremony was
beautiful and impressive.
After they had been pronounced
husband and wife they were given
hearty congratulation, by their r>-
latives and many friends.
’■oilowing the congratulation, thi
guest, were invited into the beautiful
decorated dining room to 1 bountiful
supper.
After supper the guest, were shown

The attendance at the second meet­
ing of the Woman’, Civic Improve­
ment Club, was evidence of keen in­
terest and appreciation of opportun­
ity by the women of Tillamook and
vicinity.
Owing to the lecture by Dr. Stuart,
only a short session was held and no
business transacted excepting the
adoption of the Constitution and elec-
tion of a treasurer and three director,
Mr. Botts was chosen treasurer. Mrs.
Whitehouse director to serve three
years. Mrs. Schultz two years and
Mrs. Terry one year. The directors,
with the other officers form an Ex­
ecutive Committee of seven. More
than forty women signed as members
and an organization was perfected
which will be a great factor for im­
provement in the city and county It
is in no sense to be a local matter,
the object, as stated in the constitu­

Dr.. Bertha M. Stuart’s lecture Fri
day evening, Dec. 4, to the parcn,
Teacher’s Association, was on th*
subject of “Physical Training
Girls." The following is a brief sen-
mary of her talk.
There is a tradition that a girl docs
not need the exercise which a boy
needs, and as a result, the girls’ body
is not nearly so well developed as it
should be. At the age of eleven a
girl usually stops playing for feA’t o(
being called a “tom-boy”, and she be
gins to wear clothing which binders
greatly her natural movements Is it
any wonder that she becomes f|at
chested, stoopshouldered and has
nerves ? She has no occupation to
develop her muscles or to stimulate
her imagination. What does she do
with the leisure time? At recess sh*
walks around, giggles, and chews
gum. After school she does about the
same. In the evening she goes to the
movies or to a dance hall.
We should look out for the girls’
leisure time and should really con-
struct her reaction. She should be giv­
en what she wants under the hast
possible conditions. And what does
she want? She wants exercise, and
therefore, we should give her exercise
Ot course, she should have as much »
out-door exercise as possible, but in a
rainy country this is not always pos­
sible, and the next best thing should
be done. Some place where the girl
can take exercise should be provided.
A gymnasium is what is needed for
the girls. Besides the regular physical
exercise she would correct her pos­
ture, etc. She would gain much bene­
fit from team game, as basket ball,
valley ball, etc. Such games have a ■
great mental value, for they teach one
to exercise judgment and to think •
quickly. The moral value of such
games is also very great, for they
teach courage, self control and fair
play. Then there is a social value in
such games, for there is taught a feel­
ing of co-operation, loyalty to the
team, unselfishness, and a desire for •
the good of the whole.
A girl must take her place in the
social world as well as a boy. How
can she fill this position well if she
has not a healthy body? Her mental
and moral qualities depend upon her
physical being. Therefore, as we wish
a girl to grow up healthy in order to
take her place among her fellow citi­
zens, she should look after her physi­
cal welfare.
On Saturday afternoon at two-
thirty Dr. Stuart talked to the girls
of the high school and eighth grade.
Her topic was physical hygiene deal­
ing with manner, conduct, morals and.
ideals of young girls. She interested
them immensely in out-of-door sports
and created a great deal of enthu­
siasm regarding the formation of an
“Oregon Trail Society” in Tillamook
1 his is a local organization similar to
the national “Camp Fire Girls". A
branch of the “Oregon Trail Girl,"
will probable be formed in Tillamook.
Following her talk to the girls, Dr.
Stuart addressed the "Womens' Civic
League,” her topic was “The care of
the girl,” one of the principal point,
emphasized was that the girl should
have a reasonable amount of exercise,
out of doors if possible; otherwise in
a well equipped gymnasium. She de­
clared that of all school buildings the
gymnasium was the most important
and should be first to be built. Near
the close of her speech she spoke on
matters of dress, advising mother, to
clothe their daughters simple, appro­
priately and above all comfortably,
maintaining
that school
girls
dresses should be loose, convenient,
and should allow freedom of move­
ment.
Dr. Stuart closed with a few re­
marks regarding the girls’ social life.
Young people demand society and
allowed a reasonable
should be
amount providing it is not of harmful
nature, which the mother should
closely watch, guarding against late
hours, banquets with rich indijeriible
food, and other evils. She concluded
that it was the mothers’ place to see
that the girl had the right social idea,
and if in doubt, to chaperon her
daughter and ascertain for herself
with what sort of young people ,he
associate, and how she conduct,
herself.
