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.

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

increasing.
