New business is coming into
our !.. id, and best of all. there has re-
t>een born a community spirit
of progress and improvement, which
will stimulate growth and business.
Tillamook is very much in the eyes
of the outside public. It Is now
spoken of as “a live town,” and such
advertisement will do us no harm.
The main thing h to consider the
comunity interests as a whole, and
eliminate the individual interest, for
what lienefits the whole community,
will also benefit the individual.
The next thing, and perhaps the
most important work before the com
munity, is the improvement of the
bay so
that lumber
carriers
come in and anchor at the lumber
shipping docks at both Garibaldi
Cove and Bay City. The Headlight is
pleased to note the community effort
for the bay improvement. In that
effort, every loyal Tillaniooker of this
section should be a booster.
NAILING A LIE
Part of the useless time of a few—
a very few— empty minded individ-
uals in this city has been used recent
ly in spreading propaganda to the ef
fect that the Headlight was attack
ing the American Legion in an editor
ial August 18. This is a veritable lie
and a little common sense, used in the
proper way, should determine anyone
as to the veracity of such statement«.
The Headlight attacked no one but
told in an unvarnished way of the
methods uaed by an itinerant self-
styled director who <ased himself into
the good graces of the Tillamook Leg
ion post with the proposal to put over
some kind of a show. The Headlight
has this man*» reputation from other
parts and is quite willing to stand
behind any statenuot made.
To return to the first paragraph why
should this paper attack an ex-service
men’s organization? The owner of
the Headlight and the one who is re
sponsible for its statements and prin
cipals ia himself an ex-service man,
one who spent two years in th- ser
vice of the United States army dur
ing the World War, and one who will
go to great lengths in seeing that the
former ..oldier is helped and protect
ed. The plan of dignified begging as
as used by the promoter of this show
is not to help the reputation of the
American Legion, as is evidenced by
the strong feeling among the busi
ness men of this city against such
methods.
What has happened to the conserv
ative Portland Oregonian? It has
carried full-page screamers on the
front page for two days in succession
this week. The chief must be away
on his vacation.
News reports state tha’ a former
aristocrat of Sweden is working as
a carpenter in Portland. This leads
one to beleve that there may l>e some
hope for the European aristocracy
after all.
But the housewives of the nation are
the ones who pay the big dividends
that keeps sugar stock at the top of
I the market,
it is one uf the trusts
that is seemingly above the constitu

Congress seems scared to
death of it, and the general govern-
ment apparently isn’t concerned
much for the sugar users.
