For all tho rocky roads an' rough, Rcnpen time or sowln', There's alius grace an grit enough To keep tho world n-goln' Stormy skies an' woepln' eyes, But, Bhlno or shadow-weather, Up from tho valley o' sighs Wo gain tho heights togethor. II. Tho halleluja of our days Still from tho heart Is lcapin', Even in tho thorniest of ways, Pleaso God, tho rose we're rcapln', We look tho future In the face With tides of plenty flowln. An' thank our stars for grit graco To keep tho world n-goln'. an PRICE IK TOO HIGH THE death of a hunter acciden tally shot In tho woods near Mcdford is reported. Ho was Btrttrk by soma otlior hunter's bul let, carelessly fired, and bled to death boforo holp reached him. This will not bo tho only accident during .tho hunting season. A young man In Curry County wns Bhot, but not Borlously wounded, nnd others aro Miro to suffer. It Ih a pity that each year lives must bo sacrificed because of carelessness of hunters. Pr.oplo follow hunting largoly us 11 sport and thu pleasure should not Copt human life. If It Is a sport which must bo paid for by human lives every yoar then door hunting Jiad btttor bo ilono nwuy wltn jii tlrcly or ulso mora euro must bo exorcised by tliosu who uso fire nrms in tho woods. WHEAT POR MILLION'S T11H government crop ciMmnto for September bIiowb that tho wheat crop of tho United States will probably reach a billion bush els. This h highly gratifying. To know that so much of tho most I ii portaut food stuff has been actual ly produced and Is In the country, must give a feeling of safety ro nil. In tlieso war times It Is not Important only to have tho money to buy what la needed, but to have tho actual goods on hands Is of more value, than It ever was before In the history of tho world. If this coun try should got Into war, or what ever may happen, wo will at lo.m luiu bread for the millions of inhabitants, When n Coos Bay man wants a now hat he goes into a storo for two minutes, and comes out with an tip-to-dato ono and when a Coos Bay woman wants a now hat sho goes Into a storo for nn hour and tries on all tho " creations" nnd comes out with somo up-to-dato Ideas to uso in making over tho old lid sho Is wearing, No mnttor how far down nnd out) a Coos Bay man may bo ho can al ways truthfully brag that there was a tlmo when ho rodo In his own carriage Tho longing to furnish a meal tick et for tho other half of tho world Is what causes all tho troubles for 'our half of tho world. Always rcmomber thnt if you got all you prayed for thero wouldn't bo enough to go nround. Adam blamed It on tho woman. And whon tho rnBt of us got caught wo can't think of a moro original excuse A Coos Bay man often thinks of n lot of grand things ho could do, if Ills wife and children didn't need tho money, for hlmsolf. Whon n Coos Bay mnn nnd wlfo aro out in public and tho man falls over himself trying to ontertnln tho wlfo, you can bet sho Is somo other mun'B wlfo. Whon you hit tho bulls oyo don't go nround bcoflng about it. Even a stingy mnnlcuro is will ing to treat nil hands. Most every Coos Bay mnn thinks on tho qulot that ho Is qulto n do-vll. Ono of tho Coos Bay boy's first ambitlono s to get nil tho plo ho can cnt. Funny how many words can bo used withqut saying anything. Somo Coos Bay men keop tholr word becauso no ono will take It. Our language Is so queer. Geo, whiz! It often causes mirth Tho thing wo call a bigot Is Tho smallest thing on earth.
