SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY CHEST
No other organization in Vernonia has anything like
the prodigous task to perform this winter that the com-
m’mity chest has, and yet not other, in proportion to its
s, is so inadequately financed. It alone will have to
stand between many a family and starvation—according to
present outlook—yet it has only a scanty sum in its treas­
ury, and an insufficient stock of food and clothing. How
i it feed and clothe the needy if it has nothing with
hich to supply them?
The community chest needs money and it needs use-
ful commodities. Have you given your share?
TWO GOOD FRIENDS
Closing of the highway engineers’ office in this city is
a matter of regret, because it means, probably, the spend­
ing of less construction money in this city than had been
anticipated even in case of designation of the Wolf creek
route.
Whatever of bias there may have been on the part of
some in the highway department against Vernonia and its
route to the coast certainly does not apply to the engineers
who worked out of the office here—H. W. Libby and H. N.
Hackett. Mr. Hackett, whose duty it was to find the best
possible line from here to Elsie, carried out his instructions
whole-heartedly, succeeding so well that the Baldock report,
recommending the rival route, had to concede to the Ver­
nonia-Hamlet route virtually every engineering advantage
save that of a few miles in distance. Mr. Hackett was openly
an advocate of this route.
Mr. Libby, who was in charge of both surveys, could
not by virtue of his position take sides in a controversial
matter of this kind, but he played absolutely square. In
particular he made it a point not to overlook a single item
that might be of advantage to either route. It was his duty
to find out the facts and report them to his superiors.
This he did conscientiously and efficiently.
In the closing of the department’s work here Vernonia
loses by the departure of two good friends—Mr. Hackett,
who left at the end of the preliminary survey, and Mr.
Libby, who goes this week. The community’s best wishes
accompany them.
