The Bonding Question Will Be Re-Submitted to People. Another effort is to be made to bond the county for $425,000 for the surfaced purpose of building [ a <. hard ................. road through the county. When the bond niiasure was submitted to the people last June it was carried by a large majority, 1499 voting for it and 678 against. W hen the case was taken to the Supreme Court it was knocked out on trival technicality. Then the question was raised whether another election could be held within twelve months, for the law provides that only one special clectioif can be held each year. It is upon that point where there is some difference of opinion, early but to bring this to an issue this ivill be tried out after tile petitions are enti filed. The Tillamook Commercial stem Club will circulate the petitions, ac- 0 to companying which will bc a letter to resse the County Court as to where the 1 22,- money is to be expended. It will be rent, noticed that in the north part of the I 43,- county one important change is made, it. the Necarney mountain road being nous abandoned. This met with some op bout position in the north end of the coun n ss ty at the special election, which will The be overcome now that a change was the made. it of ■The most important reason for vot the 1 ing on the bonding question at an urite early date as possible is to be pre cent pared with money when the state L I Highway Commission is ready to I build the additional ¡5 miles of hard city, I I surfaced road in the south part of the ted- I I county.

Service Flag Unveiled u Sunday I at the Methodist Church. 1 i —0— Sunday morning a spec:al ser- vice was held al the Methodist Church to dedicate a service flag in honor of the young men who had been previously identified with that church, anil who had offerc-J their services to the government in this national crisis. The church was well filled with an attentive cohgrcgi.lion, and the services were ably conducted by the pastor, Rev. Chas. Gibson, who pleached a patriotic sermon. Mr. Gibson in his opening remarks, said he had not chosen a text nor had he prepared a set speech. They were there to honor the young men who had enlisted who had been identified with the church. He did not like the idea of honoring the young men of their church, hut would have preferred that young men from other churches as well as young men who were not identified with any church, could all he included in one honor roll. But the churches were called upon to do what they were doing that day. It had became a National affair. Mr. Gibson paid a glowing tribute to tin boys who were defending the stars and stripes and w ho stood between us and the enemy. He then went back to the war of the Revolution afid rcfcrrecl to what France had done to assist Wash ington, stating that this was the first opportunity that the United States had of showing its appreciation to that country. He felt glad that the I nited States w as helping France. We owed that country a debt of grat itude. Mr. Gibson discussed the ques tion of the war and gave his reason why the I. nited States was involved in it, stating that Germany had brok en international law ia its submarine policy, murdering women and non- combatants, and accused Germany of using barbarous methods in the pros ecution of the war. To those who op posed the United States entering the war, Mr. Gibson gave many good reasons why the United States had done the right thing, going to the as sistance of France and the allies, con tending that the United States was not safe as long as the Kaiser was in power, and as an illustration of this he referred to Germany making the of fer to give Japan this northwest coun try. In closing .Mr. Gibson praised the boys who had enlisted, and those who were to be called to the colors, who, he said, were just as brave and true as those who had already enlisted. At the conclusion of the rev. gen tleman’s remarks, he called upon Marion Hopkins to unveil the service flag which contained 21 names. Two other names were handed in that morning. At the right of the flag was a golden star, which was in honor of those who had given up their lives in the present war, and on this star Mr. Gibson placed a wreath. I he honor roll contained these names in the order given. Bain, Joseph Read Bain, Vcrn D. Boquist, Stanley. F.rskine, Howard Fletcher, Alfred R. Gulstrom, Erick Gulstrom, Alfred Ginn, Elbert E.
