building plans MADE BY LEGION FUNDS FOR THE PROPOSED ES TABLISHMENT TO BE DERIV ED BY LOCAL POST MEETING THURSDAY FURNISHES W Ex-Service Men Long In Need Of Meeting Place Suggestions for an American Le gion club house in Tillamook weie received with enthusiasm by mem bers of Tillamook Post recently. That the plan is feasible from * * a financial standpoint is the belief of fiUAiiv» — --- , - t Ae-ionnaires who feel that ...... Legionnaires many such a building would likewise re awaken interest among former ser vice men who have grown apathefie toward the organization. While no, plans have been adopt ed, or even considered, it is probabio that the structure, when built, will contain, in addition to the quarters required for the various activities of the Post, a dance fiool equal in size to any now in this vicinity. This, it is thought, will be tffe source of suf ficient revenue to cover the ordinary expenses incident to the building. Funds for construction of the pro posed establishment are to be deriv ed from dances and other forms ot entertainment. Under the leadership of Ira W. White, present commander of the Post, a Legion orchestra is now in process of organization and it is probable that it will be pre pared to furnish music within a rea sonably short time. Efforts are also being made to secure a dancing pa-1 vilion at the County Fair grounds to be operated during the fair week on a percentage basis. It is thought that dancing will prove more of an attraction at the fair than many ;>t the amusements to which conces sions are granted, and probably bn more profitable to the county. In previous years, dances given in the city limits have drawn people fr< m the fair rather than to it. A series of dances to be Held in this city dur ing the fall and winter months is al so under consideration. In the meantime a committee has been appointed to investigate pos sible building sites for the proposed building. Several hundred dollars are now available in the Post treas ury and it is thought that this amount can be materially Increased. Some saving in construction will be incurred through donations of labor by members of the Post. Lack of proper quarters is largely responsible for the determination of the Legionnaires to secure their own building. Practically ever since its organization, the Post has been moving. Only on rare occasions have two successive meetings been held in the same room. Meetings have been held in the Court house, the Tilla mook block and various parts of the city hall from the council chamber to the gallery of the auditorium and the Post has as yet no permanent place for its records. The application of John Zweifel, a native of Switzerland, with pres ent residence at Mohler, thip county is the first case on record 'of an ap plicant coming from South America to Tillamook county.

Hets. A payroll of seventeen thousand dollars per month is a very nice thing to have in a town like Tilla mook every month, in addition to other payrolls. The Coates Lumber company last month paid out to its employees the above amount, and it is quite likely that the present month will average about as much as the last. In round numbers 140 men are on the company’s payroll at the present time. The company is filling some large orders for California points, and on Monday last shipped two cars to Illi nois and Wisconsin. The lumber output on this Coast is said* to be about 50 per cent of the cut in nor mal times, and seems to be steadily increasing. SWIMMING TANK PROVES POPULAR A crowd of Tillamook people who journeyed to Bayocean with Capt. Dodge last Sunday reported the nat atorium to be in fine condition. The tank has been completely filled with water this year and the temperature of the water is about 80 degrees. The natatorium remains open all day Sunday this year and patrons are allowed to eat their lunches up on the beach or to enjoy the surf re turning in the afternoon without ex tra charge. A band concert will be a feature next Sunday at the natatorium and in all probability it will be a weekly event in the future.
