BANDON BY THE SEA: Are you going to take in the Excursion to Bandon Sunday? It's a fine trip, provided you prepare I have just the assortment of togs for the occasion, so don't forget to let me fit you out Ci OOS BAY needs civic fraternization. It needs a more general acknow , ledgment and acceptance of that spirit of brotherly lovo which abounds within the portals of the many fraternal bodies that aro repre ssed on the Bay. We should not seek to entirely eliminate selfishness f r Intelligent and enlightened selfishness is a great factor in the pro- giess of the world. Why have me sought a home on Coos Bay? Because it offers advantages material or benefits to health In a climate w.iy. In brief to better our conditions. This being true, it follows In logical sequence that whatever advances tho general good of Coos Bay contributes to our Individual advancement to tho extent that we share in tho social and commercial life of tho place. Tho man of today rejoices, and labors heartily, in the cause of frater nity, us u expresses useii to mm in tno Hundreds ot various torms now accepted tho world over, and has peculiar and profound Interest In the success and achievement of every lodge in which he has desired an honorable place. He knows the strength and beauty and utility of the principle of cohesion and unity, as exemplified by those fraternities and keeps grateful and constant tab on their accomplishments along their chosen lines; he knows that they rarely fall to effect the good things they go after, with the lodgo-splrlt behind them, and he knows, further, that it is tho cooperative principle that accounts for the quiet and peaceful ac hievement that signalizes every move they make. Knowing these things, as all modern men know them, the marvel re mains that communities, like ours, close-knit, deeply Interwoven in in terest, in constant touch and working side by side the years through, cannot imbibe some of the spirit that animates the fraternity, and merge in a unity that would defy defeat in all the ends the people have in view. Why not regard our fellow-citizens in tho same light we do our brother In tho lodge, and work with him and do those things that are right and wholesome and popular, in a civic way, as well as in a fraternal way? Citizenship does not alter our relations ono tho other; its demands aro really superior, and supremo, when measured with the duties im posed by tho craft, whatever it may be; and it is only a matter differentia tion that wo neglect the broader and higher obligation and yet adhere devotedly to tho lesser and secret engagement. There is a commonalty in the civic program that makes it easy to follow If wo nro disposed to do the real fraternal thing whenever we can; our duty to one another does not cease at the lodge gates; we are still bound to stand for tho uplift of all. Why not try to apply tho friendly rule to tho broader relation and gain the successes denied us for want of it? iSEBALL III C ne Tomorrow Afternoon :ourteen Games Arranged For Season's Play. " anngor Arthur McKeown of tho Mr Jhfli'ld Baseball team, announced tr'1 that a practice game would bo III ed at N ' Bond Sunday atter nLicn, Tho Maihhflcld aggregation will leave hero at 1 o'clock sharp.

BOXERS Iff HERE II 16 I'm weary of false prophets crying Their wicked, inscrutable lies; While thousands of helpless are dy ing As Mammon's and Greed's sacri fice. I long for the day and the hour When Greed shall bo flung from tho throne; When man in his right and his power Again shall step Into his own. I'm weary, but duty Is calling, And only tho sluggard will shirk The tasks that are set are appalling, But honor says simply, "Go work." I long for the woods in their beauty, But over the call that they give, I hear the stern calling of duty That bids me bo worthy to live. Will M. Maupin. . It has been some time since The Poet's corner at the Mlllicoma held a larger or more enthusiastic col lection of devotees of the muses than that gathered there tho other even ing. Chairman Jack Flanagan called the meeting to order by reciting an original poem entitled "The Poet's Dream." J. D. Goss who has been made Official Critic gave it as his opinion that the poem was all right but It should have been entitled "The Poet's Nightmare." At this nolnt. Geo. Goodrum rose to a question of personal privilege. Ho said he de sired to have entered on the official records of the order a criticism of the official critic. He presented it as follows: "When you essay a gentle quip John Goss is sure to greet you with The hint that you have made a slip, "That joke was told by Sidney Smith." MI Ha Go'.f Caps 50c to $1.00.
