Lamb has compiled the census re­ ports of the various school districts for the school census which was tak­ en October 25, 1922, and which shows the total number of children of school age in the county to be 3024. Rather an unusual condition ex- with this year’s reports, as they ‘•■how exactly the same number of boys of school age as girls, being 1512 of each. The last five years the school population has been steadily increasing, The figures are as follows: 1918 census 3441, 1919 census 2361 1920 census 2774, 1921 census 279- 1922 census 3024. It will be seen that the increase in five years h3s been about 24 per cent. Tlie increase has been steady - ach year with the exception of 1919, which shows a slighl decrease over that of 1916. The high school *' 1 Ilmen: for the year ending June 1918. was 191 The high school en­ rollment for the year ending 1922 was 316. The per cent increase in ’•• •’■ -etiool enrollment is approxi- i-ly 65 per cent more than in 1918, while the school population of . he county has in: reused but 24 per ■nt This shows the desire of young people and their parents for high school education.

Travi», of Eugene, Oregon, writing from San Diego, California, sees the great advantages to be gained for Oregon by the early com­ pletion of the Roosevelt highway. He says: “The advantages of an early com­ pletion of the Roosevelt highway through Oregon has recently been impressed upon me. “Yesterday I took an auto ride up along the coast past La Jolla, the home of artists andrich men, famed as the most beautiful part of the coast beween San Francisco and San Diego, because here the red, barren dirt hills, coming down to the ocean are a little higher then else­ where, and one can see the waves splash, but not in any way compar­ able to the rocky. verdant, wild Oregon coast. “Neah-Kah -Nie or Shore Acres be Shore Acres down here would the mecca of tourists us one of the wonders of the world, and as soon as the Roosevelt highway is com­ pleted California tourists, they all have cars, will swarm your coast line and become Oregon boosters, be­ cause California has nothing to com­ pare with Oregon for coast beauty, at least south of San Francisco. “Oregon scenery will become as celebrated as Tillamook cheese. “I asked a groveryman here today why he reatured Tillamook cheese, instead of the California product. He gave two reasons: 1st, That’s what the people ask for, and 2d, We have no ‘come-backs’, its standard and always the same." Mr. Travis is of the opinion that no dinner is complete without ’Til— lamook cheese on the menu, and to get some age on the cheese orders a case at a time for his family. TILLAMOOK CITIZENS CAST AL- MOST UNANIMOUS VOTE IN FA VOR OF PROPOSAL. — GET - TING AMOUNT SET ASIDE FOR COMPANY K. NEXT MOVE. The election held last Monday for the purpose of voting to donate to the general staff of the National Guard, all of block one, Maple Grove Addition, contingent upon the erec­ tion of an armory building, resulted in 98 votes for and 4 against the proposition. The property in ques­ tion has a value of approximately $10,000, it is stated 1 he state has already appropriat­ ed $20.000 for Company K. which was supposed to go to Independence, bin as Independence failed to get the quota necessary for organization, Company K was organized in Tilla­ mook. Representative Watson ex­ pects to use his influence, in the > oming session of the state legisla­ ture to secure this fund for Tllla- mook. Tillamook county has been authorized, under an enactment of the legislature, to appropriate a sum of money for memorial uses of ihe American Legion, and $5,000 has already been set aside for this pur pose. It is hoped the county will appropriate an additional $5000. and these aggregate sums are expected to build the armory. Thus it will be seen that the erec­ tion of the proposed new ’building will entail neither a bond issue or an increase of taxation. The overwhelming vote favoring thi- donation of the property above mentioned, indicates very clearly the attitude Tillamook citizens hold to— ward the consummation of this SHAKESPEARE CLUB purpose, and indicates a looking Mr. and Mrs. C.
