"Tho word, while not of Chlnoso origin, originated among the Chi nese of San FrnncUao," said nu old resident of tho Part tic const.

From this tho transition to the meanlug of the fanciful images conjured by the drug was easy. 'What dope did you use to think up that wild story?' because dope are you giving us?"

O A GOOD CKEED FOK COOS KAY. 4 Coos Bay should have n croed which every live citizen can endorse. The Times suggests tho following: I believe In Coos Day, her people and her Interests, I believe In her natural beauties and attractions. I bellevo In her merchants, her manufacturers and her future. I bollevo In her many, educational advantages and will work to In crease them. 1 bollove In attracting and welcoming worthy people. I bellevo In Industrial development for Coos Day and In pushing for such advance now. I believe In the support and development of our homo Industries. I bellevo that overy dollar spent for good roads will bring many dol lars' worth of taxable property Into the city; dollars for the mechanics, the hotels and the merchants. I bellevo that when I spend a dollar out of town that I could spend on Coos Day I nm doing my community an Injury. I bellevo In commending and not condemning. If I can only help by my voice, I will glvo that help or keep quiet. I bellove In a bright future for my community. So believing, I shall spend my dollars on Coos Day, where I may get It back as It rolls along. at tho lowest figure quoted since 190C, says tho Oregonlan. The effect of tliuso low prices on the general economic situation will be differently Interpreted by the pro ducers nnd consumer of lumber. I-i n Tncomn dispatch In The Orugonl.Ui of Tuesday It was stated that a bill of lumber for a house that four yeara ago would have cost $500 can no" bo purchased for $375. Tills saving, of course, Is sufficiently large to in terest tho home-builder and natural ly he sees In tho present stagnation In the lumber business an advantage which for obvious reasons Is' not ap preciated by tho manufacturer. Unfortunately for Oregon, ovon tho record building boom that Ik un der full head war takes up such n small proportion of the total output of our mills thnt tho saving effected by tho local consumer does not even approxlmntoly offset tho loss to the state as a whole (Through dttmpthg our lumber on foreign nnd Eastern niflrlilta nt ntlt.vnt.r ni.tnna .... ... viii-iuki f..vi-a. i Tho situation is not n now onr.

Others, nftor n to bankruptcy, to emergo later from- tho receivership In readiness for the next era of prosperity In tho lumber business. And this era of prosperity, like tho ones which hnvo preceded It, will not bo long delayed. The de mand for lumber lu all of tho world' markets which can bo reached from tho Pacific Northwest Is Incrcnsln? rapidly and tho supply from which this domnnd must bo mot Is rapidly decreasing. Theso nro tho condi tions that will rosult In tho gradurl elimination of price-cutting nnd ruinous competition. In every lino of buslnoss occasion al emergencies nrlso which neeossl tut tho sacrifice of collnterat at a heavy discount from Its fnco voluo. Such emergencies may account for the manufacture of $0 iinwlogs Into $S lumber. W'th the timber supplies and tho lumber manufacturing In- !""i,r' rapidly nauluK Into strong hands, those omorgenelos will be fewer In number and timber will not be cut nor manufactured Into lumbor iiutll thore Is n domnnd for It. Oregon was tho Inst of tho gre?' lumbor stntos of tho Union to begin manufacturing on nn extonslvo se.ilo and. as n rosult, we hnvo thus f.ir received higher nvorngo pr'ces for the timber than those realized In other stntes.
