And Pine is up here, on like this, and keep this, like up start You Gableson, of the US Biological Survey was there too. He started to laugh, and then we started to laugh. There was a lady stenographer there and she started to laugh. And then we all laughed. By and by, I got Pine and Gabfeson started talking. And, gee, I got a fine story. But that’s nothing strange because that’s my business, get ting stories. As near as I can remember it, it was the day before the day I got up there, that Pine and Gableson took a trip over to the Silver Falls country. Seems to me that they had been invited up there by Mrs. Daisy Goldsworthy, to give a talk before the school on trapping moles and gophers. They expected to come back with abut a thousand of those animals. Well, they started up there, and after they had hiked about ’steen miles they finally found the school house. (I guess the Jitney must have broken down or something.) Well, they gave their little talk. And they came back. But all they brought back with them was four calloused feet.

The Tax Reduction Clubs of Oregon Grand Exalted Ruler of the B. P. O.E., is due to arrive tn the city at 1.30 Saturday afternoon. Oregon has an organization that it would profit other states to em ulate and duplicate. It is the tax reduction club. It was born on De cember 31, 1921, when 400 taxpay ers from 10 of Oregon’s counties foregathered at McMinnville. It ap-( parently is a husky and hustling In fant, for it plans county conventions on March 11 and the Btate conven tion of their elected delegates on March 20. The purpose of the organization is the reduction of taxes. hTe object of the Portland envention is t de cide op such matters as in the judg ment of the members will tend to- ward the realization of that pur- On he principle that ‘‘God pose, helps those who help themselves,” the tax-reduction club and its cam paign command hearty commenda tion. Broad and thorough talk by the taxpayers themselves—not officials who eat taxes, but workers who pay taxes—is imperatively indispensa ble. The public should follow all financial doings of the common wealth closely, all proposed spend ings especially, and speak out their minds loudly and clearly. Such mat ters should not be left, as too gen erally is the practice, to official board. GET AFTER BUSINESS If American taxpayers are to ar rive anywhere In governmental ‘‘Get After Business”—that’s the finance, to achieve anything, to ac- slogan, And the way to do It is through progressive newspaper ad vertising.

The coming convention to be held here next May will be the first big convention ever held in Tillamook, and one of the greatest mediums of free advertising the city can get. Delegates from every part of the state will be here; visitors will flock in from til directions; hotels and private dwellings will be cram med. Presumably a goodly portion of money will be left with our mer chants. The geographical location of Til lamook makes it an ideal place for the entertainment of delegates. Sit uated as we are, the gateway to the finest beaches to be I found any- where, gives our city a natural ad- vantage. The home of a natlonaly advertised product, and I the center of a prosperous dairy community are attractions that will I draw many people, and features well worth ad vertising. We advocate a progressive policy in a get-together-pull-together cam paign for the industrial, commer cial and agricultural development of this county. Many more conven tions can be brought here. The ef fort to bring them is well worth while; for what more effective or cheaper method of advertising can be devised than to send such visitors back home carrying facts of the pos sibilities of Tillamook county.

Yea, he knows this town like a book. I guess he must have been here be fore this town was on the map. Charley got to reminising and I got in terested. I guess I must have been sitting there listening to him with my mouth open. He was talking about old tildes, and old landmarks, and the old people that used to be. And while we were sitting there peacefully talking, who should come strolling in but Carl Shortridge and Roy Trout, with an armful of bld photographs of Tillamook. That was quite a coincident to nave them come walking in with those old pictures while we were talking about old times. They had resurreted them some place, I don’t know where. (But T ought they hit» loobed the archives of ancient Greece). In th use di*s Second Avenue looked like a young m’il pond There wer? park walks at the crossings. If you starred io cr.’ss in too m ddle of the hirer you would go down l.he this. And when you got down here it would take a team of mules to pull you out. And the women wore skirts that swept the sidwalks in those days. There was one picture of the old Tillamook Hotel when it was the finest hotel in the county. And there was a photo of Wade’s implement store, with a rubber tired surrey in the window. Those were the days when Lizzie was still a pup, and you had to take your best girl out for a buggy ride. When you could throw the lines over the dashboard and let old Dobbin find the way. And then Shortridge told of how he was driving home one night. It was cloudy and pitch dark. He let the horse have his way, but the fool critter wandered to the side of the road and one side of the buggy ranr upon the bank and the whole rig tipped over. And there was another picture of Clark Hadley’s barroom. Billie Stephens, George Tone and Clark Hadley were standing behind the bar. And then two custdhierB came in and we had to beat it. That talk done me a lot of good and I enjoyed it. I started down Second Avenue whistling. But I only walked about a half block when I met another fellow who took all the joy out of. life. Franklin was assistant hostess. Nearly all members were present. The invited guests who were pres ent included: Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Bales, Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Gill ham, Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Conover, Miss Gertrude Corrigan, Mr. High Smith.

Fel lows use me to make dates with . girls, and girls use me to break said dates. Husbands call up their wives over me, and wives call their husbands down over me. I never go anywhere, but some- times the company oome in and takes me out. It all depends on whether you pay your bill or not. I am not a bee, but I have often times buzzed in your ear. I am the bell of the town, and while I wear no jewelry, I often get rings. Whether I do things or not a lot of people nail me to the wall, and I like music, but the only music I ever hear is chin music. I get all the popular airs, but the most popular one is hot air. guest of her brother, D. C. Pe regoy. C. H. Lasey and a force of work- men have begun work on a new res- idence for E. B. Gresham.
