From Tillamook It is generally conceded that Tilla mook cheese is popular, and that it is also in great demand, but the follow ing story taken from a Seattle paper dated July 1st, shows that when cheese burglars come into a store and seek to carry it away in broad day light, despite the efforts of the pro prietor, it’s fame, is broad spread. Here is the story: “H. I.. Klock, 55 years old, proprie tor of a butter and cheese house at 914 Western Ave., about 10:30 o’ clock this morning successfully de fended himself and a Tillamook cheese in a battle with two young men who sought to carry away the cheese. Although he sustained minor bruises in the battle, Mr. Klock’s fighting spirit resulted in the arrest of V. P. Gill, 24, and R. W. Dally, 22 who were held at the city jail for in vestigation. “Mr. Klock was unloading a carload of cheese he told the officers, when he saw the young men approach the car. One of them picked up a cheese and started to run away, but Mr. Klock was too quick and sprang at him. He was knocked down, he told the police, but he held fast to his as sailant and they rolled over on the pavement. Mr. Klock says he was then attacked by the other young man and the three were battling fu riously when Patrolmen J. Yosting and J. H. Hurt arrived as reinforce- ments, summoned by Klock’s office crew.” NEW SCHOOL BUILDING TAKING SHAPE FAST The new school house is assuming shape, and work is progressing at a satisfactory rate, say the directors. The roof is nearly all on, and lathing and plastering are going ahead at the present time. The various contract ors have material on the ground and as the building progresses, the electri cal and heating appliances will fol low without loss of time. Then will come the seating and other fixtures and before it is realized the new building will be ready for the child ren and the instructors. It is be lieved that the building will be ready in ample time for the fall term. STOLEN AUTOMOBILE IS FOUND AT BEACH During the Presidential reception in Portland the other day Dr. Bow man, a well known physician of that city left his Crow-Elkhart auto stand ing in front of a business house, and when he returned a moment later, the machine was gone. Friday last the sheriff of this county found the machine where it had been abandon ed at Rockaway beach. Two young men were seen to get out of the car at the beach and walk away. The owner of the car was notified and came in and got his property Satur day.

NEW WATER MAIN PIPE FISH AND GAME CLUB TO HOLD MEETING IS FAST BEING LAID Supt. E. I). Hoag of the Tillamook Water commission has begun laying the new pipe from the intake down the line a distance of about one and a half miles. Part of the new pipe has been delivered and the remainder is coming along from Portland. Bad, muddy conditions have retarded the work considerably of late due to the heavy rains, but with some dry w<-nth er to help, the work will soon be done. It is thought the force will be able to lay from 300 to 400 feet of pipe per day. Being Shadowed Of Southern Oregon To Help Create Better Spirit The "Boost for Oregon” caravan will leave Portland July 16th for a trip over :he Pacific highway, Rose- burg-Coos Bay highway, into Marsh- field with a side trip to the Oregon caves. The Oregon State Motor as sociation in u letter to Rollie Watson asks him to take up the matter with Tillamook civic clubs and have them enter one or more cars representing Tillamook county. Cars should bear banners setting forth the resou ices of their county. “It is believed.” states the letter, “that the result of the trip will be to create a much needed “Boost for Oregon" spirit, and that it will give the boosters a chance to do some good work for the Roosevelt highway." Mr. Watson wants to know why the beach pro prietors and other interests cannot take advantage of this caravan trip to advertise Tillamook county ami ita varied resources, Mr. Watson will join the caravan himself, but he wants others to show thv same public spirit, and co-operate with hint in the matter. Here is a chance to do some good work for our beaches and in duce tourists of the state and else where to come over here and see our country, Ix't's enlarge the Tillamook spirit.

CYRUS RANDALL IS GORED BY BULL Infantry Will Give Attack Demonstration During Week Of Fair NOW TIME TO PREPARE Money Not Available For Completion Of New Fair Grounds Purchased Some Time Ago Secretary Pine states that the out look for a good fair was never better. There is every indication that the stock exhibit will be fully up to that of previous fairs, and it is hoped that it will be larger and lietter. Five mo tion pictures will be given on three nights of the fair week, and some thing new will be the attack demon stration by infantry units of company K, O. N. G. This will be worth see ing and will give the onlookers an idea of modern military in action. The business men of the county have been rather slow in making rea- ervations for business exhibits. Thia is a big atlruction to most people, and it is sincerely hoped by the manage ment that the business men will be thoroughly represented at this sua sion of the fair. This is the time to begin to get ready, and the publie should assist in this way to make the fair a success. The fair belongs to Tillamook county and a« usual there will be a large number of .trnngera here, who naturally will want tn see an exhibit by the leading busitosa men of the county S. s . ih I people have lately inquired when th.' new fait grounds would be <><•< upimi. The county now owns 100 acres a short distance from the present grounds, and it is paid for, but there is no money in the county coffer available fur the expense of new buildings, and that is the reason. Before these grounds can be used, there muat be n fund for the above purpose and about the only way to get it, is to levy a tax for the purpose and that will be tip to the people. The pres ent grounds are leased from year to year from the Southern Pacific com- l>any and an order from that Com pany to vacate would have to Ire o hey- ed at the end of any contract year.
