CITIES COMPLETE TILLAMOOK—An official state census of the cities of Garibaldi and Manzanita was completed Monday under the supervision of the office of Robert S. Farrell Jr., secretary of state, showing Garibaldi to have a population of 899 and Manzanita, 219.

OYSTER FESTIVAL SET FOR JUNE TILLAMOOK—There have been many inquiries concerning the Bay City Oyster Festival, one of the most popular events of the summer before the war. This year plans are being made for a two-day affair to be held on June 15 and 16. The last festival was held in June 1941. © © Broken Shoulder Result of Fall SRAPS r OTS ^ Some amendments to the exist ing Price Control Act are al most certain to come out of the house banking and currency com mittee. Even the committeemen favorable to the OPA are agreed that changes are to be made, in cluding: 1. Some formula for lifting price control when supply equals demand on particular commod ities. Committee members are dissat isfied with existing OPA stand ards for decontrol; there is a movement to give authority to direct decontrol in the case of manufactured articles to the civil ian production administration, and the department of agriculture in the case of agricultural commod ities. Textile Ceilings £. An amendment which would force OPA to raise textile price ceilings to meet increases in cot ton costs. (The pricing of cotton textiles is covered by special legislation, the Bankhead-Brown amendment.) By and large, the banking and currency committee is an admin istration committee. House leaders have seen to that, as they have seen to the composition, for ex ample, of the important house labor committee. Even so, any amendments to be written in by the committee are likely to follow proposals which Rep. Wolcott, of Michigan, out lined not long ago, but which attracted little attention at the time. Most important of Mr. Wol cott’s proposed amendments: “That no maximum price shall be placed on any commodity which does not reflect to the producer thereof the cost of production plus a reasonable profit.” 0 0 Dress for Easter Yes—But let God dress you. He waits to give you a covering you cannot buy. All the good deeds you might ever do would fall short. Even now you back every good work and live a model life but all this you ought to have done anyway and it cannot save you from one least sin—Not by works of righteousness that we have done, but by God’s mercy, He saved us.—Titus 3:5—BIBLE. And how does God save us ? First, He puts your sins on Christ who died under them for you. Your sins made Christ so vile that God forsook Him—“My God—My God—Why hast thou forsaken Me?” So you hear His cry. God’s love was in Christ and He freely died to save you. ONE—-Count your sins blotted out. TWO—Count God as then covering you with his own eternal righteousness. THREE — Know that Christ rose up from the grave to give you new life—His life abundant. FEELINGS OR NO FEELINGS, the new life is in effect from the instant you receive Christ ns having died for your sins. Now you are dressed for Easter, with sins off, eternal righteousness on and Christ in your heart forever. So you are to step ahead and grow up. Live by the Bible and lean all your weight on Christ to see you through.
