Oscar Steele spent Saturday and Go
Sunday in Tillamook on business.
.Miss Nellie Corder returned last
week from a short visit in Portland.
Win. Morrison and family moved
the first of the week from the Knight
property on the hill to the Whitaker
place, which was recently purchased
by -Mrs. Johanna York.
George Knight, who recently re-
turned with his family from the
Willamette valley, moved into the
property made vacant by Mr. Mor-
rison, the first of the week.
H. J. Hickerson and family left
Monday in their auto for a few days
visit with friends in the valley.
The revival meetings at the M. E.
church closed last Sunday night, and
Rev. Brymer left for Portland Mon
day morning. Much good has been
accomplished by the meetings.
Last Saturday a goodly number of
.the pupils of the public school went
in auto truck to the Aldervale cheese
factory to learn how cheese was
made. Mr. Fletcher, the cheesemaker,
was very kind and accommodating
and explained everything very fully.
Mrs. E. K. Barnes and Mr. Brimhall
accompanied the children. This week
the pupils will write essays on Tilla-
mook cheese, in the county contest.
Everyone enjoyed the trip.
Mr. and Mrs. Will Christensen, ac
companied by Mr. and Mrs. G. B.
Nunn, all from Wheeler, motored to
the beach last Sunday. Wheeler be
ing out of gasoline, the boys had to
come to Nehalem to replenish their
empty tank. You can always depend
upon Nehalem.
Postoffice inspector Linebaugh was
in from Portland last week to check
over the accounts of postmaster
Walter Mead and investigate some
complaints that had been filed with
the department. His accounts were
found in excellent shape and upon
investigation the bottom fell out of
tlie complaints. Mr. Linebaugh made
some suggestions for the betterment
of the service and these will be com
plied with at once. The words of
praise and commendation by the
public here for the work of the car
rier Mrs. Ruby Brooten would make
any carrier in the state feel proud.
They were justly given.
County Commissioner H. V. Alley
returned from Portland last Satur-
day where he had been on business
with the rest of the county court.
One more month of school. The
final examinations will soon be here
and then the summer vacation.

speech at Marion, Ind., said that the

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT—Referred to the people by th«
Ix-gislative Aaaembly.
LIMITATION OF FOUR PER CENT STATE INDEBTEDNESS
FOR PERMANENT ROADS.— Purpose: To amend Section 7 of
Article XI of the Constitution of the State of Oregon eo as to permit. the
creation of debts and liabilities including previous debts anti liabilities
for the purpose of building and maintaining permanent roads to th«
amount of four-per cent of the assessed valuation of all the property
in trie Mtnto of Oregon, instead oi two per cent as now provided by law.
NO PROPERTY TAX- NO DIRECT TAX
NO INCREASE IN AUTO LICENSE FEES
NO INCREASE OF GASOLINE TAX
Keep them three facts in mind. The present auto license fees and
gasoline tax will pay both the principal and interest on all the bonds
under this amendment, and will yield an annual surplus besides for other
state highway work. No additional taxation of any kind.
FEDERAL FUNDS MUST BE MATCHED
Owgon must have sufficient Highway Funds to match Federal apportion
ments or Oregon cannot get the benefit of Federal money for Oregon Road«.
Increasing thia constitutional limit is a necessity. Unless limit is increased,
either state roads cannot be completed for many, many years, or must be finished
by direct property taxation. This measure averts direct property tax for state
highways and makes early completion possible. Let’s get the roads built now.
