ARMORY BONDS CARRY
The result of the bond election held
last Monday showed that 157 persons
voted for the bonds and that 10 voted
against the issue. Evidently the big
majority thought that the city could
not afford to go on record as turning
down the $20,000 gift by the state of
Oregon to the municipality of Tilla
mook. Th, Headlight believed that a
good majority would be had for the
bonds at the late special election for
the reasons that city pride was at
stake; that a home for the militia
company was an important issue; and
last, but not least, that Tillamook
needs and badly needs, a large audi
torium, which is now assured.
Other towns in the state had set
the example of building such housing
for their soldier boys, and at the same
time providing a large auditorium and
Tillamook has kept pace with them.
We can now invite state conventions,
if they do not occur too soon to come
over and hold their meetings here
near the ocean. The next Odd Fellows
convention and the next Elk conven
tion will be held here and the verdict
of the majority as witnessed by the
recent city election, stands as an en
dorsement of Tillamook’s go-ahead
spirit and such a spirit augurs well
for the future growth and prosperity

What Fire Chief Coates describes
as a freak fire occurred on the night
of the Fourth on the roof of a store

and connecting with their main store
in the rear. The shingles were burn

feet, without destroying the rafters
or communicating with the floor be
low where a lot of boxes and other
litter was stored. How the fire orig
inated is a mystery. The belief is
that a cigarette stump or skyrocket
started the fire, but who or what put
it out? The blaze started from the
roof that seems certain. The depart

“Then probably you could use more milk
to advantage. You mention only two
quarts daily for two children and two ad
ults, one of whom is trying to gain weight.
The children would do well to have a quart
or nearly a quart each, and you should have
a pint at least for yourself and from a pint
to a quart (according to his special needs
and his assimulation) for your husband.
Then with the increase of milk you can eas
ily cut down your meat and egg bill.
“A good rule to remember is that for ev
ery extra half pint of milk used in the
daily diet the other protein foods, such as
meat, eggs, fish, cheese, may be redu< < d
by two ounces without any dietetic loss.
Milk is usually the least expensive and the
most easily served and assimulated of all
the protein foods.”
