A LITTLE CRITICISM appears to work as a stimulant to the tal ents of Thomas A. Edison. Two years ago he offered the world his plans for a $1,200 concrete house which could be built In two weeks. Architects and builders pronounced the scheme impossible. Mr. Edison went about his idea more seriously. Plans for a house to be cast from moulds are now available for any one who chooses to use them. The entire house walls, roof, floors, etalrways, partitions, door frames and twIndow frames can bo cast in one piece together with laundry tubs, bath room fixtures, interior decora tions and ornamental panels. Con crete, as liquid as It is possible to make It, is to be poured from the roof into the moulds set up In their entirely. The operation, in Mr. Edison's opinion, can be carried through In fourteen days. Now and more wonderful applica tions of concrete nro cpming Into use every day. It would be somewhat dangerous to sneer at the suggestion of a city of concrete raised, dried out and inhabited In the course of a month. The Concrete Craze. We've got a brand new concrete house; they're quite the latest stunt; It's got a concrete bathtub and a con crete porch' In front; A set of concrete washtubs and a garage up to date; And a concrete stove and mantle piece and jardlneer and grate. J.' !' J - , r 'a ''v.s.r.'Jf'"' w-i'! FINANCIAL k 'se n's it wonderful" the way the stuff Is coming into use! comes in pans and dishes and in knobs that don't come loose. Platlrons moulded from the stuff are proving rather neat, And auntie's having false teeth made of reinforced concrete. We used It for our sidewalks and for cellars and for stairs; It comes in stinos and bottles, too, and coffee pots and chairs, There's one- place where it doesn't seem to be successful, though; Concrete won't' pay our bills; we have 'to use the old style "dough." HUGH McLAIN. Every man seems to make a dif ferent noise when he sneezes. We are all' fools; the only ques tion Is, who is the greatest one. IN OUR HANDS. THE DAILY East Oregonlan of Pendleton, reprints from The Times the Interesting statements of Herbert Lockhart In reference to city building and uses it as a text for a little sermon that is quite us ap plicable to Marshfleld as to Pendle ton, The East Oregonlan says: Not long ago a prominent Marsh field man made a visit through the northwest and returning home he made a statement to the Marshfleld Times as follows: "Tho only reason on earth why tho most prosperous cities are located whore they nro is the energies and efforts of tho citizens. A number of men with some money and tho proper energy can build a city almost any where. Many of tho cities of the Interior of what is known as the Pa cific Northwest have no particular natural resources behind them." Tho Idea that a city need have no satural resources can scarcely bo ac cepted. But It Is a fact that the en ergy displayed by tho citizens of n city has an immense lnfluonco upon tho growth and advancement of that municipality, Tho city of Pendleton has enor mous resources and If only tho proper efforts are put forth by tho people of this placo, Pendleton cannot holp advancing. But what Pendleton needs Is hard, united effort towards tho upbuilding of itho town. If tho pooplo of this placo will but get to gether and work hnrd and Intelli gently they can make Pendleton a far greater town than It Is at present. It Is a fact and a fact that local prop erty owners should nevor forgot, that Iho futuro of Pendleton Is largely In the hands of tho people of tho city. Some Coos Bay people take delight In pouring ice water on enthusiasm. What Is known as "strong will power" Is usually pure devlllshness. It must be a lot of consolation to a lazy man to feel that a germ causes It. t -o; "A Marshfleld woman can always find"" a good excuse for going down town. A Ceos Bay man always has mon ey enough to' buy things not good for him. Sends Seventeen Delegates to Development Congress and Raises $400. "You can tell the people of Coos Bay that Bandon Is ablaze with en thusiasm for the Oregon-Idaho De velopment Congress," remarked Steve Henderson, the advance guard of the Bandon contingent who reg istered at the Chandler today noon and started .In boosting Immediately. "We had a large and enthusiastic meeting of the Bandon Chamber of Commerce last night and selected seventeen delegatse to the Congress and raised $400 cash for enter tainlr.? the delegates from abroad and Coos Bay people at a grand clam bake at the Bandon beach on Sun day. The people of Bandon believe in a broader public spirit and are willing to go more than half way and do their full share for anything that will aid and advance any part of Coos county, believing that any thing that helps any section of the county will help all sections." The meeting last evening was a large and representative one and was an index of the sentiment of the community according to Mr. Henderson. There will probably be a large number of citizens to accom pany the regularly weeredited delega tion of seventeen wliose expenses will be paid, by the Commercial Club. Mr. Henderson states that there will be about forty or fifty in the delega tion headed by Mayor Steve Galller and Col. Rosa and will Include C. Rj Wade, State Representative R. J. Bedillion, G. T. Treadgold, "Col. Coach and other prominent citizens. A DOLLAR SAVED is a DOLLAR. MADE tThe. habit of savlng.-formed early in life, i- thd tou.ndatfon. t many a fortune.
