It is also a well known fact that
only a small percentage of the mon
ey spent tor such stocks is ever re
turned; most of it is evuporated by
the selling concern.
While we are considering the loss
to the individual through his purchas
ing this “wildcat" paper, let us al-
so delve into the loss to the coin-
munity. The amount mentioned in
the first part of this article would
build five medium sized, modern busi-
ness buildings; fifty first class res
idences; three excellent school build
ings; many blocks of city pavement;
and several miles of paved highway.
It would go a long way toward the
improvement of a port for Tillumook
bay. These items show only a part
of the loss to the community when
its money is spent improving some
other part of the world or feathering
the nests of some stock sellers.

LIBRARY NOTES
At the regular meting of the board
the librarian’s report for April was
1348 books and 30 magazines.
So much interest is shown in the
house plan books that a few additions
will be made. A second copy of Gar
den Guide has also been added as it
has such high recommndations from
those being fortunate in procuring it.
The secretary also had the pleas
ure of notifying the board that $25
had been placed to their credit by
the Monday Musical club.
Mrs. Carrol gave the library a box
of fiction, many of the titles being the
standard works that are kept in cir
culation from year to year.

“Then probably you could use more milk

quarts daily for two children and two ad

The children would do well to have a quart

Milk is usually the least expensive and the
