While on Director of Publicity of Oregon 1 Exposition Commission Vis its Bay to Prepare Plans for Exhibit at San Francisco Fair. Ceo. M. Hylnnd. of Portland, di rector of publicity of tho Oregon Ex position Commission, arrived In tho city Sunday, nnd this morning ap peared Informally beforo members of the Commercial Club and citizens, relatlvo to placing an exhibit in tho Oregon building nt tho Panama-Pacific Exposition In San Francisco next year Slnco tho fair commissioners, be causo of tho groat numbers of com munities scoklng space for exploita tion of products, dccldod to allow no county exhibits, associations hnvo been formed of sovoral counties, thereby combining their products In to ono exhibit and conserving the greatly crowded spaces. Tho purposo of Mr. Hylnnd's visit hero Is to orgnn lzo Coos and Curry counties into an association, similar to tho Southorn Oregon Association, composed of Josephine, Jackson, Klamath and Douglas counties. Ho reels greatly elated nt the prospects of forming such an association and the encour agement given tho project by local citizens. A formal meeting will bo held this ovcnlng In the rooms of tho Chamber of Commerco, when Mr. Hylnnd will address tl o body, nnd details of tho nssoclntlon discussed, nnd tho plans 1 for gathering and exhibiting tho products of tlio two counties. In nn Interview today regarding the proposed plan, Mr. Hylnnd said; "Tho Oregon Commissioners will give the Coos and Curry association the central nnd most favorably locat ed booth In tho Oregon building, pro viding the association will build and I iiiiiiuuiiu ii on iiuiuiu ill iiiirui iiiiu , attractiveness nnd according to plans nnd specifications suggested by tho Sixty-F00t Commissioners. "I wouiu also suggest, as to this exhibit, that a prominent feature bo made of tho woods of this section, n hero thnn In nil the rest of Oregon, and which could be made exceedingly beautiful. "Another Important feature, I be lieve, should bo nn exhibit or dnlry products, allowing the possibilities of tl e community and tho up to dnto processes of southewestorn Oregon dairymen In marketing their pro duce, Including cheese making inneh- Ir.ery, methods of tho condensarlcs, etc. "Another foaturo which I think would bo most nttrnctlvo would bo a relief map of Coos Hay and Its trib utary country, showing In dotnil tho extent of fertile nnd tlllnblo lnndB, wooded hills, streams and wator- powcr sites. This exhibit could bo easily prepared by experts at n not exorbitant cost. Motion pictures of shipping sccnos, Industries on tho Hay, at tho beaches, and beautiful scenic spots, could also bo easily taken, nnd these would bo shown dally In tho lecture hull beforo hundreds of Interested spectators. "In n scpnrato building, near tho big Oregon exhibit, will be a fish nnd gumo display. Tho building will bo of rustic design, and built entirely of Klamath county timber. Coos nnd Curry counties could also proparo an exhibit for this display. In fact, bellevo tho possibilities for an ex cellent exhibit from thoso two coun ties are practically limitless."

Ciorst & King run caeh one of their cars fifty times as far as ti private owner would. Therefore, tiro mileage means easily 50 'times as much to them as it does to the private car owner.
