A population ir alno notice- k 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 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 tion. Congress seems scared to death of it, and the general govern- ment apparently isn’t concerned much for the sugar users. OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT TIDE TABLE FEATURES S. P.
