The board announced its decision this week in a conference with Oregon representatives. It was known here several months ago that the Roosevelt highway project had been ap- proved as « road of primary importance, but this formal de- cision upon the part of the government to go ahead with construction, certainly is good news for the coast section of the state. The state highway commls- sion will now have no excuse for diverting the appropriation passed by the legislature for the building of th® highway to any other fund, and the sooner the state gets the pro- ject under way the better. The triumph of the Roosevelt hlgh- way project reflects great credit on its originator, B. F. Jones of Newport. The whole coast section should rejoice. The Fair board held a meeting last Wednesday, and preparations for the' best fair ever held in Tillamook county are now under way. The dates agreed on by the board for the coming fair, are Sept. 12, 13, 14, and 15. The board is busy making up the premium list for the forthcoming fair book, which will be issued earlier than was the case last year. At the meeting R. C. Margarrel was elected president of the fair board, and W. D. Pine will this year serve as the official secretary and manager. Changes made in the premium lists will include increased prem iums 'n some divisions. In the dairy cattle division the board has in creased the first prize to $10.00, where formerly it was $8. They have also added two more prem iums to each lot in this division, making five prizes where formerly there were but three. In this way it will be required that the judges place the first, five animals in the ring, where there were formerly but three. t Other matters under considera tion will be announced later, as soon as they are perfected by the board. * • • * ILLNESS OF FATHER OF JUDGE BAGLEY IS CAUSE OF HALT TERM WILL RUN OVER INTO / JUNE—LARGE DOCKET.

The county officials are waiting on the board's decision also, asthe latter will have considerable to d.o with the plans of the county court. It is believed that an early decisiofl will be made from informa tion received in this county. NEW DEVICE IS BEING ENTHUS IASTICALLY RECEIVED BY TIL LAMOOK PEOPLE- MANY SETS WILL BE INSTALLED. Though a large number of dlf- rlculties are being presented in the way of interference from different sources, local radio amateurs are quickly overcoming many of the dif ficulties and the science is being better understood throughout the county. i Friday night the Headlight set received a very satisfactory concert from Seattle, and speaking from Av- valon, the Catalina Island station, is a common occurence. There has been some difficulty in hearing from Portland as yet but most of the stations outside of the Oregon metropolis are having the same trouble. The Headlight receiving set was assembled and installed by Henry Nelson and Lou Thrailkill in the space of one day from what parts and material they could get locally. Mr. Nelson is at present with the battery station at the Tillamook garage and Mr. Thrailkill hails from Bremerton, where he is employed in the navy yard. The demand for radio, equipment has grown considerably during the past few days and local dealers hope to be able to supply it soon for the production is being speeded up at the factories.

JACK RUPE GETS SURPRISE ON HIS 50th BIRTHDAY Jack Rupe, everybody knows Jack, wfas surprised by about 50 of his friends of this city last Sunday night at his home east of town on the occasion of his 50th birthday. The men presented^ack with a cad dy of his favorite brand of chew ing tobacco, and the ladies served ice cream, cake and coffee and other good eats, and a good time was en joyed by all. but Jack was particu larly happy. REBEKAHS WERE SURPRISED The Rebekahs had a nice program at their last meeting, commemora tive of the 105th anniversary of the establishment of Odd Fellowship in the United States. The Odd Fellows were also present, and were heard to regret that no ban- quet had been prepared, They stated however that they would put on a playette for the edification of the Rebekahs. This all seemed fine, and when the Odd Fellows opened the dining room, the ladles were surprised to see the tables ar ranged for refreshments consisting of ice cream and cake, and that was the "playette.’' C-ARIBALDI MILL USES 140 TO 150 MEN TO OPERATE The Whitey mills at Garibaldi are now running steadily, and are turning out considerable lumber. much of which is being used locally, and by the company in building sheds and other Improvements. The best grades.however.are being held for outside shipment. No ship ments to the outside have thus far been made. The mill is employing at the present time all the way from 140 to 150 men. the price for com mon labor in the mills being $2 80 per dav for eight hours work, but many of the men are working 9 hours with the same ratio of pay ment.

Goldstrom met with an accident last Saturday night while driving out south of town, which for the slide feature that resulted, was hard to beat. They met another auto and turned out, but two wheels of their own machine went off the paving, the machine latqf gaining the main road, but failing to right itself, turned over on one side and skidded about seventy feet, without hurting the occupants, but the slide put two wheels out of commission, smashed the fenders and made the top look like a junk pile on clean-up day. The wonder was that the occupants were not badly hurt. The accident occured near the Charley Welle place on the main highway. EFFORTS TENDING TO PUT BAY CITY BANK ON FEET The state* bank department has appointed W. M. Stephens, F. P. Miller of Rockaway, and J. H. Collins and M. D. O’Connell of Bay City, « committee to represent the depositors of the Insolvent bank in an effort to reorganize It. A report of the actual condition of the bank will be ready within a few days.

GARIBALDI PLANS $10.000 NEW SCHOOL HOUSE Garibaldi on the 72nd Inst., voted $12,000 bonds in district No. 14, for the purpose of building a new $10,000 school house.'the old build ing having been found Inadequate for the needs of the community. It is believed that work on con struction will be started about the first of June next, or at least so soon as plans can be placed in the hands of the contractors. The present building is crowded too much, and the new building is said to be a real necessity. The building will be modern. MEDÄ GIRL PAROLED ON DELINQUENCY CHARGE Jessie Irish, daughter of Grant Irish of Meda. was brought before County Judge Homer Mason on the 27th Inst, on a charge of delin- quency. From 10 to 15 people of the vicinity of Meda of both sexes were present at the hearing, at the conclusion of whlch'the Judge pa- rolled the child, in the custody of her parents, contingent upon fu- ture good behavior, In case the parole is broken the child will be sent to the Girls' Training school at Salem.

POSSIBILITIES OF DAMAGE SUITS LEAD CITY DADS TO PREPARE NEW SIDEWALK DISTRICT— DOG TAX DUE APRIL FIRST. The City Council which met last Monday night requested the street committee to make a survey of all board sidewalks in the city, also of localities where sidewalks have not yet been constructed, and report at the next meeting. This survey is preparatory to creating a new side walk district for construction of concrete sidewalks. It was ex plained that individuals could build their own cement walks cheaper than the city, and advised that they do this wherever practic able, when notified to do so. Many parts of the city are now without sidewalks, where there is a real demand demand for them, and in other sections there are sidewalks which may some day cause the city damage suits as a result of acci dents. The idea of the street com mittee is to make a careful survey, and guard against possible danger to pedestrians, and at the’ same time fend the city from damages, by having the sidewalks rebuilt >r repaired. e Dr. Robinson, health officer, re ported Monday night that the old shack south of the Holden property on Stillwell avenue was unsanitary, unsightly and useless; also the little tent house at Third street and First avenue, west. Council thereupon ordered the shack torn down and the tent removed from Its location. Dr. Robinson was requested to report on several other properties, which have not been connected up to a sanitary sewer. The season for paying dog tax opened April 1, and owners will have to pay $3 for males and $4 for female dogs within the city lim its. > Monday the first of April was the beginning of the clean-ufi week and progress was reported to the council. The various councilmen and ladv committees in each ward are actively at work, and a general disposition on the part of the prop erty owners and tenants is noted to make the work effective. It is be lieved that when the work is com pleted the city will show a highly improved appearance. Civic pride stimulates most people and there is nothing so attractive and com pelling to strangers than well kept streets in a town. Tillamook will soon put on its gala dress of flow ers, and be ready for the Influx of tourists, who have so much of a commendable nature to sr.y about our main travelled streets and pretty flower embowered homes.
