COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER

A WAY TO HELP
Every resident of St. Helens who
wishes to see St. Helens advance
wishes that more enterprises would
be located here. This is perfectly
right and the Mist hopes that such
enterprises will come. However,
while wishing for other industries,
let us not forget to support the in
dustries we now have with us. If
we do not support the home indus
tries and patronize home industry,
we cannot expect to con
vince the prospective factory builder
that St. Helens Is a good place for
him to Invest his money.
In St. Helens we have a cannery,
a creamery, a flour mill and two
bakeries. St. Helens people own
them. They are St. - Helens ente.
prises. If we expect to get other in
dustries to locate in the town, lei
us patronize the industries we now
have.
THE ROOSEVELT HIGHWAY
The most popular mecsure on the
ballot at the recent election was the
one proposing the construction of a
highway extending from Astoria
down the coast to the California line,
and to be known as the Roosevelt
Highway. The people, by their vote,
have authorized the expenditure of
$2,600,000 for the construction of
the highway, and the government
will appropriate the. same amount
making a total of $6,000,000 avail
able with in a short time. There is
a vast isolated territory in that sec
tion of the state through which the
road will run that will soon become
fin extensive Agricultural district,
aside from the fact that it will be
one of the scenic highways of the
northwest. The government In lend
:og aia in us construction, recog
nizes its value as a military road
should there be need for defending
our coast line. Columbia county
gave me measure Its endorsement,
CITIZENS
The war has taught us many les
sons many valuable lessons.
We may never have another wai.

fort and Inconvenience.
One ot those lessons Is that we
can never be a united people until
we cease to harbor In our midst
those who come here to get rid of un
desirable conditions in tbelr own
country, but who yet retain their love
for their native lands to such an ex
tent that they do not renounce their
allegiance to them by becoming citi
zens of the country under whose laws
they make their living and under
whose laws they claim protection.
So long as we harbor those who
are not imbued with our ideals to
such an extent as to become a part
of our government, just so long mo
we expect anarchists and bolshevlkis
to make their rendezvous nere.
Those who find our laws good
enough to live under should find our
flag worthy ot their allegiance, and
if we profit by the lessons we have so
recently learned we will demand that
those who do not become citizens
shall betake thomselves to that coun
try which holds first claim upon their
affections.
Such a procedure Is as necessary
in times ot peace as in times of wai.
Colonel Dlsque, hero ot the Veou
building, has been awarded the D.
8. M. Some ot the other officers ot
the Spruce Production department
have received like honors. Nothing
lias been said about any one in that
department receiving stripes, though.
It all reports as to the waste and mis
management are true, it would seen,
that stripes would be in order.
School meeting at the city hall
Monday night to select a director for
the St. Helens school. If you are
Interested In St. Helens and St. Hel
ens schools, attend the meeting. The
St. Helens schools are a big part of
St. Helens and certainly deserve your
attention and Interest.
Highway Commission B e n so n
seems to think that every time he
spends a dollar. In Columbia county,
that he owes the whole state an
apology. Columbia county was a
mighty fine county when Benson
lived in it.
And now comes the Salvation
Army Fund drive. Columbia coun
ty's quota Is $3,000. Every soldier
will give his endorsement to the Sal
vation Army and their service. Such
endorsement is sufficient. Let us all
contribute liberally. .
It Is so much easier to think of
mean things to say than of pleasant
ones.
A comparatively small proportion
of charity never really wells up from
the depths of the heart.
It's all right to hope tor something
.that you couldn't get even by hustl
ing for it.
The greatest trouble with mothers-
in-law is that they do not get the
right kind of sons-in-law.
Governor Olcott Is a high flier.
He came from Salem to Portland via
