Rev. W. S. Holt, of Philadelphia,
who is the Assistant Secretary of the
Board of Ministerial Relief and Re­
lief and Resuscitation, ot the Presby­
terian church, was in Tillamook for
a few days last week, leading for
Portland Monday, where he will visit
before returning home. While here
he gave a splendid address at the
services held at the .Presbyterian
church, also at Clovrdale. Dr. Holt
has been a frequent visitor to Tilla­
mook for the past thirty years, al­
though this is the first time he has
been here for seven years, He says
that this county is the best that he
has ever seen, and if it weren’t for
his frequent visits here would be-
come old, but they keep him young,
green and growing, like the grass.
A few evenings ago four boys, one
of them a son of one of our leading
ministers, decided that they would
go to the beach the next day. As it
was hard to get gas they made a few
social calls, stopping at the concrete
roller, in the west end of town and
"borrowing" five gallons of gas. and
started to get some from a mixer, but
,ound it locked, just as they were
passing George Burchard's house he
saw them and called to them to stop

tracks. All of them fan except
one boy, who "squealed” on the oth­

Known nothing has been done to the
ooys, but the marshal says that the
swiping of gas simply must be stopp­
ed, so measures will be taken to pre-,
vent repention of the occurence.
John Carroll returned the other
day and he told us quite a few inter­
esting things about his trip. He
said that he drove out as far as Bur­
ley, Idaho, in his car, and he said,
"Believe me, I'm proud of Tillamook
county. The roads in some other
places are abominable, and in most
places there are no directions at ail,
one has to take chances." He said
that he reached the Hood River stre­
tch of the Columbia Highway just
a Couple of days after it had been
completed. They also had a little
excitment in the way of catching
outlaws, as they were stopped by
wo posses near Pendleton, who were
searching for the murderers of their

and that in Chicago and St. Louis

days. There Is plenty of whiskey
and wine there too. According to
his statement if you ask anyone east

Tillamook Frei
Preparing to Have Aero­
plane Landing Field.
Oliver K. Jeffery, of the 0. K. Jef­
fery Aeroplane Company, was in Til­
lamook Sunday looking up the mat­
ter for a suitable landing field for
his company which soon expects to
have an established mail and pas­
senger service on a loop from Port­
land through Tillamook, Seaside,
Astoria and return to Portland.
R. B. Miller took considerable time
to go over the territory surrounding
the city with Mr. Jeffrey, and they
found one or two suitable locations.
The matter of securing and prepar­
ing this field has been taken up by
the Tillamook County
Automotive
Dealers' Association, • and a commit­
tee comprising R. B. Miller, Charles
Pankow and Frank Fitzpatrick, has
been appointed to take the matter up
with the Tillamook County Merch­
ants’ Credit Association, as to ways
and means to consummate this mat­
ter quickly.
Tillamook must get immediate ac­
tion on this matter, as l».e Govern­
ment is now establishing many
aerial mail routes and the cit; that
has a suitable landing field is in a
position to get consideration in this
matter that cannot be secured other­
wise.

Chamber of Commerce Meeting
Called for Next Week
------ 0------
On Wednesrday afternoon an In­
formal meeting was held at the city
hall to take into consideration the
question of forming a Chamber of
Commerce.
The attendance
was
small, and if you want to know who
were present they were some of the
most progressive citizens of the city,
and it you failed to attend you don't
belong to that bunch. But to enable
every business man to come In out
of the cold and not to remain a
urone any longer, they are invited to
attend a meting at the city hall at
8 o’clock next Thursday evening.
August 19th. When officers will be
elected and the new organisation
will get busy. Don’t let it be said
that Tillamook city has gone to
sleep, for we don't belong to the
sleepy class. All that the business
men need is a little punching up to
arouse them to activity.
