JBELT LINE BAILWAY COMPANY. By L, D. KINNfaY. And Think Kvory time you buy vour goods away from Coos Bay you are knocking tho props out from under your proporty. Tf Marshfioid is a good business town you are the one to reap the benefit. The merchants of Marshfioid are pushing for the good of the town. The result is that business is better and property in creases in value. Thoy are doing their share. It's strictly up to the peopie of this city as a whole. If thoy will get together and buy at homo, property val ues will go up. If they do not care or if each ono shifts tho responsibility to some one else, there- is no way on earth for the town to grow. Just etop before you buy that suit, coat, dress, hat or piece of furniture pr stationery away from hojne, and think. If you do that you will hardly go ahead and 'deliberately injure Marshfioid.
