Newspaper Page Text6 The Kwi-Review, Roieburg, Business .By LEROY BUSINESS PROPERTY in Rose burg has been changing hands so rapidly recently it's a bit difficult to keep up with it. Many of the changes are attributable directly or indirectly to the Aug. 7 explo sion. Three sales highlight this week's activity. Trowbridge Electric has purchased the blast-damaged for mer Lockwood Motors building from a group of local investor. Contract has been let for its re construction. Trowbridge bought from the same group and resold to Hans Hansen the property oc cupied by the former Wcid Cum filing's Mobile service station. The station will be rebuilt. Sale of the Creason Hotel build ing at the NE Jackson St. triangle hy Douglas l-ounty uiatc uans oives the new owner J. F. (Si) Dillard, additional property in Uiat area. He had previously purchased from the bank the building to '.lie north to house Specialized Parts blasted out of its former SE Steph ens St. location. He plans no im mediate changes 'or th? Creason and does not plan to reopen the hotel, which was closed earlier in the spring. Pearson's Market and Nielsen's Saw Co. occupy the main floor. The U.S. National Bank has add ed property to its site for a new bank building on the lormer wiy Hall properly by purchase of the house and lot at 632 SE Kane St. This will provide entrances or ex its off Main, Kane ana uuk streets. Earlier Hansen sold the old Northwest Turkey Growers build ing on the railroad to Jack Math. is. who has repaired part of the building for Bashford's Feed & Seed Store. Hansen purchased the burned out shell oi the yuallly Furnishers building, south of Han sen Motor Co.. from Dr. and Mrs. J. M. Boyle for a body and paint shop. These are the principal transac tions in tne city, mere nave been others. Many bsuinesses in rented buildings have been forced to relo cate because of blast damage. A former resident might have diffi culty finding familiar haunts. THINGS WERE DIFFERENT hack in 1923. Perhaps the aims of the Chamber of Commerce were the same: Promoting a bigger and better Koscburg. But then the city's population was 6,000 wi'h another 1.000 persons living in the environs. Today it is 13.000 and about 23, 000, respectively. Roseburg's elevation at 487 feet above sea level remains the same, but highway improvements mako it only 186 miles from Portland in stead of 200. and some distance has been cut from the 572 miles to San Francisco. It's slill about 83 miles via Highway 42 to the Pa c-ific Ocean and 51 mi'oj airline. Wind velocity remains little chang ed at around 3.2 miles per nour av erage and rainfall average in 1923 was about the same as now at 33.54. There's one big change Rose burg is no longer a division point on the main line of the Southern Pacific. Although a great deal of freight, principally lumber, is ship ped out of this area, the main line goes over the Willamette Pass to Klamath Falls. Another change, the payroll around Rosehurg has climbed from about $2,500,000 in 1923 to $30,000,000 estimate. We use the 1923 figures as a comparison because they were con tained on a window sticker put out by the Chamber of Commerce in that year. On one side of the sticker is the face of an Indian Chief and the words "Umpqua (I am satisfied) Valley." Statistics are printed on the back. The stick er was printed with the compli ments of Economy Grocery, then operated at 344 W Jackson St. by O. L. Johnson. EINO HEMMILA, a staunch worker with the Central Douglas United Fund, urges all persons connected with the fund to get on the ball and make their necessary contacts. He asks the cooperation of the people solicited to make their contributions quickly. "We want to get this thing over with as soon as possibl.", said Hemmila. "Not only do we want the money turned in, but the com mittee wants to finish the tob so l ie workers can turn their attention to other pressing matters." The chest has reached about 67 per cent of its goal. ARE YOU AN ADMIRER of the body beautiful? Aro you one wlui sits back and watches the other person doing things you would like to do? Or are you one ut those doing something about it? We can't all be a Mr. America such as Bill Pearl of Sacramento who won that title several years ago and has not been beaten in competition when it comes to an exhibition of muscular posing and strength. Pearl is in Roseburg today help ing Boyd Brougher, who holds 'he title of Mr. Oregon, w:th the "grand re-opening" of his Figure Fashion studio. They are persunal friends, both being interested in body building, and have reached high personal achievements. I'cart is a big man, weighing 212 and with a chest of 54 inches. He's all muscle. Brougher, much smaller, nevertheless has a chest of 46 inch es. Often persons engaging in body James R.D. Little, D.0. Ottropitiie P-)i'C'i and Su'itM HOURS: Doily, 9:00 A.M. 6:00 P.M.

Maybe they are in a sense, but those persons have learned to achieve una! others have not, the ability to Hex every muscle at once, the ability to take a pose with great muscular ten sion and hold it for several min utes like a statue. There is seldom a question of health. They don't know the meaning of ill health. In men. as in women, the bodv beautiful can to a large extent be achieved. Did you ever look at a beautiful woman model and note how she retains beauty in her ev ery movement, and every tilt of tiie head, in the smart manner in which she walks along then makes a quick turn, every movement one of graceful precision? SOME PEOPLE may have more natural talent and good looks Uian others, but to a large degree, the success of the model is training, knowing what she is supposed to do and doing it, holding a pose the proper length of time, making a move at the right moment. A model docs not have to be the most beau tiful, if she knows how to make the most of the beauty she has. Are you one of those persons who looks at a picture of yourself and says: "That doesn't look like me. It's terrible "1 There are two fac tors. First, you never "see your self as ithers see you." because the face you see in the mirror is a reverse from that in a picture. Others see you as you arc. You see yourself only in the mirror or in pictures. The other reason is you haven't learned how, to pose, to put your best side forward, like the model or muscle man. We watched a woman of average good looks pose for a picture once. The longer the cameraman took for focus, he more radiant her face became. She had learned how to pose and to hold a pose. A man we know, prom inent in service organization work has been photographed so many times, he always takes a similar pose, and he can hold it live min utes if necessary while the photo grapher zeroes in. Health cannot be achieved alone through body building, but it can help, and supervised training such as that offered by health clubs, YMCAs and the like can often be very beneficial. Try it some time. Bank, Community Get Commendation For CARE Support The Douglas County Slate Bank naa Deen commended ny CARE, the nonprofit foreign relief agency, for again serving as one of its volunteers. A letter received from Mrs. Mar guerite Kelly, director of tne North west CARE office in Seiltle, also commends the community of Rose burg for its support of the CARE Food Crusade to heln send fond packages to "neediest and hunsri- est people overseas." "In addition to helping CARE in distributing the Food Crusade ma terial in the community, the bank has taken the lead in supporting the program," the letter stales. "Through its support, it will help icco many eniidien and lelugee families overseas for whom the $1 Food Crusade oarrels will he their only Christmas." ihe Roseburg community which experienced a tragedy that won the sympathy of the country is showing a true humanitarianisiii and has not forgotten neighbors in dire distress outside our borders whose only hope is for outside help. Their concern expressed in their response to CARE'S Food Crusade is a tribute to their true eood- ncighborliness." Northwest Notes General Decline In Construction For the first time in a little over two years construction in the Pa cific Northwest s 64 key cities re ported a general decline in both total dollar volume and permit vol ume, according to the statistical department of Equitable Savings and Loan, total dollar volume for October was $31,527,842, a 10 per cent decrease over the previous month. Total construction in Oregon and Washington was spotty with non metropolitan areas showing more consistent increases than metro politan centers. Dollar voluma for Washington was 13 per cent he low September with totul construc- I lion reported at $17,318,108 versus $19,951,479 in the previous month. An 18 per cent drop in Seattle build ing was offset by a 19 per cent in crease in Spokane and a 5 per cent gain for Tacoma. In non-metronoli-tan areas Walla Walla and Wen tchee reported good building ac tivity! Oregon, which is 25 per cent below September, accounted for $0,867,137 dollar volume during Oc tober. The state's strongest per centages of increase were reported in LaGrandc, Coos Bay and Leban on. Two bright spots in the Pa.'ific Northwest were Idaho and British Columbia. Idaho with $2,912,739 in total dollar volume accounted for a 10 per cent increase over September of this year. British Columbia was up 43 per cent with Vancouver accounting for more than three-quarters of the area's $4,429,858 construction. Total build ing permits for Ihe month were 5,774 against 6.928 in September. Dwelling dollar volume through out the area was S9,2i1.812, 19 per cent lower than the previous month. Only British Columbia re ported a gain of 27 per cent over September and 13 per cent higher than a year ago. Total dwelling permits issued in October were 682 versus 822 in September. Cloverdale Homes Window Shoppers' Winner List Announced By Stores The lisl of winners in Roseburg's Window Shoppers night guessing contest have been compiled by the Chamber of Commerce office from names submitted by the stores which participated Monday night.

Ferris Joins Bowers Insurance Adjustment Co. Marion A. (Zeke) Ferris is now associated with the C. L. Bowers Co., insurance claims adjusters, lucated at 202 Carter Building cn SE Main St. Ferris comes to Roseburg from Portland, where he has been em ployed in the claims department of the American Insurance Group. A graduate of the Northwest Col lego of Law in Portland, he was employed as a law clerk with An derson, Franklyn & Landie, prior to entering claims adjustment work. Ferris' wife and four children plan to remain in Portland until school is out in the spring. Then they will move to Roseburg. Expansion of the business, said Bowers, has necessitated addition al secretarial help. Mrs. Byrdie Webber of Jtoseburg has been em ployed as a secretary. She was employed by the General Adjust ment Bureau which set up offices in the Elks building to process claims in the area connected with the Aug. 7 explosion and fire. . Bowers came to Roseburg in 1951 from Eugene, where he had been employed by the E. L. Schmeiding Co., to set up a claims adjustment office for that company. With the exception of one year, he has work ed continuously in this immediate area. On Oct. 1, 1953, he and Mrs. Bowers purchased the business from Schmeiding. Since that time, said Bowers, the business has grown continuously until it has ne cessitated doubling his staff. Mrs. Bowers is continuing as an assist ant in the office. Powell Moves Next Door To Make Way For Harris Cafe Earl S. Powell Sporling Goods store at 634 SE Cass Ave. has moved into the former vacant rent al in the same building next door. The move was made to make available the larger portion of the building for the future home of the Harris Cafe. Lucie Harris said she will open in this location some lime alter the middle of December. Mrs. Harris has been operating on a temporary basis the Timber Grille in the Grand Hotel building. She will continue to operate this business until her new place is ready. She will also continue to operate the snack bar at the Rose burg Bowl. Mrs. Harris' former restaurant at 719 SE Sheridan was closed by the explosion of Aug. 7. The build ing there has not been repaired. Mrs. Powell stated that the Iocs lion into which the sporting goods store has been moved is not quite as large as the other but is ade quate for the needs of the store. The building, while very close to the explosion, w-as not too badly damaged. It has all been repaired Simpson Again Achieve! $10,000 Club Honors Bill Simpson, salesman with Scars, Roebuck & Co.'s mail order house in Roseburg. is again a $111, 000 club winner, making sales top ping this amount for the three months of July, August and Sep tember.

Park & Shop Ticket Use Is Picking Up Roseburg's Park & Shop pro gram, in existence now nearly six months, is showing signs of pick ing up, according to cnesier Mor gan, chairman of the board .ad ministering the program. A check of parking lot tickets validated by participating Rose burg merchants reveals a larger number being used in recent weeks, said Morgan. The program was started late last spring for a trial period ex tending until Dec. 31. Whether or not the system will be extended be yond that dale will be up to the merchants division of the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce. Morgan said that a meeting will be held in December when a de cision will be made. Under the system shoppers in Rosehurg may park at either the Adair's Parking Lot or Serv-Ur-Self Parking Lot and have their parking tickets validated with a purchase of $2 or more for an hour of parking. Additional hours of parking may be validated for similar purchases in other stores.

Being Rehabilitate J; Paving Slated 40 Homes Now Ready, Ofhers To Be Repaired Five days of paving, weather per mitting, are scheduled for the Clo verdale Homes addition, which is now being rehabilitated by the Fed eral Housing Administration. Howard C. Heydlauff, assistant director of the FHA's Portland In suring Oifice, was in town this week looking over the project, which is being administered local ly by Pete Serafin of Roseburg Realty & Insurance Co. Heydlauff said that paving is scheduled for NE Brooklyn Ave. from NE Morris St. east to NE Todd St. and north on Todd to NE Alameda Ave., and the stub ends of Morris, Hoilis and Todd. The streets will be paved 26 feet in width, except for Todd, which will be 28 feet, to comply with city planning, he said. This is the street which eventually is planned for ex tension to connect with NE Jack son St. in Roseburg. New Curbs and Guttars Curbs and gutters are being in stalled in the Cloverdale area as rapidly as they can be put in. and all the other streets will be paved as early as possible in the spring. This winter the graded streets will be maintained, said Heydlauff. Plans have been, he said, to com plete the lower section first for drainage purposes. Street paving is only one of sev eral phases of complete rehabilita tion of Cloverdale since the FHA acquired possession of some 140 homes in the 180-home section built by Roseburg Homes, Inc. The FHA has already rehabilita ted 40 of the homes, and many of these have been sold. Others are available. Work will proceed soon on the remaining 100 homes. Homes Rtnovattd Rehabilitation work includes in stallation of new forced air peri meter oil heat, remodeling the kit chens and utility rooms to provide more adequate use. New hot water tanks have been installed in the attics to provide additional utility room space. Other general repairs and repainting, both inside and outside, have been made, in addi tion to building of carports. Some have storage space in the carports for garden tools and the like. Four styles of houses are offered. These are two and three-bedroom styles, either with or without fire places. New sanitary and storm sewers have been installed for the entire area, to provide adequate sewer systems and a hookup with the North Roseburg Sanitary District's facilities and storm sewers to take care of the large amount of drain age water in the area during pe riods of heavy rain. A new water service, supplied by the Oregon Water Co., has been installed also. Price "Realistic" Plans are, said Heydlauff, to ad equately take care of the people living in the area. He said a "real istic price" is being asked for the property, in line with other prop erly values. The FHA, he added, is not interested in making a prof it, but only to get back the money it has invested. In fact, he said, the FHA will probably take an actual loss, but the agency is anxious to get the housing development com pleted and the properly back onto the taxrolls. Purchases should represent good investments. Sales nf rehabilitated property, so far, have been very favorable, and indications are that they will continue good for the remainder of the property, said Heydlauff. He said the area has all been replatled, and when all the prop erty has been rehabilitated it should be a credit to the commu nity. He said he was encouraged lo see how individuals who own homes there are taking an inter est in making their places as nice as possible in line with the FHA rehabilitation work. Cowbrough Attending Oregon Tax Conference Bob Cowbrough. Roseburg pub lic accountant, is attending the 1959 Oregon Tax Conference being held in Portland Thursday, through Saturday of this week, under aus pices of the Oregon Assn. of Pub lic Accountants. Hundreds of tax practioners from Oregon and Washington are en rolled, and six tax authorities from four Western states have served as speaker-panelists and led dis cussions of typical tax problems confronting small and medium sized businesses and industries. I. o : n 'ff n " i i i I ' ' ' ' ANOTHER ROSEBURG HOME will give way to Roseburg's expanding business section. The U.S. National Bank has just purchased this property at 632 SE Kane St. and will either have the house moved or torn down to provide a Kane St. entrance to the new building it will erect on the former City Hall site. (Paul Jankins) U.S. National Purchases More Land For New Bank The V. S. National Bank of Port land's Roseburg branch this week purchased the house and property at 632 SE Kane St., H. E. Schmecr, manager of the bank, announced. The property was owned bv Rus sell H. Cary and Dr. H. W. Kring. The house contained three rentals, one of which was occupied by Mrs. Nettie Myers for about ten years. The Rev. Mr. and Mrs. William L. Blaker recently vacated another rental. Schmecr said that the house would either be moved off the prop erty or torn down, and that the First Quarter Payroll Near All-Time High Douglas County may have had fewer industrial employes covered by unemployment compensation during the last reporting period, the first quarter in 1959, compared with a corresponding period in the peak year of 1956, but the total pay rolls for the quarter were almost as high. Figures released by the state show the county had 1.087 report ing units for the January, Febru ary and March period, with an av erage of 13,335 covered employes and a total payroll of $15,864,230 for the period. This compares with the peak 1956 of 1032 reporting units, 14.187 em ployes and a payroll of $16.032, 522. Comparison with the correspond ing period in 1954 showed the fig ures in that year as being 777 re porting units, $12,589 employes and a payroll of $12,986,799. There were 772 units in 1955, with 13,580 em ployes, and a payroll of $14,973,221. After the peak year of 1956. the reporting units in 1957 were up to 1,234, the covered employes 13,591 and the payroll $14,469,681. In 1958 the figure was down to 1,108 re porting units with 12.079 employes and a payroll of $13,129,274. Lumber and wood products, the principal industry, showed a simi lar trend for the five year period, the first quarter of 1959 showing 311 firms reporting having an av erage covered employment of 7, 292 and payroll of $9,476,849. For 1954 there were 328 reportin? units. (.946 covered employes and payroll of $8,593,288; 1955, 322 re porting units, 8,643 covered em ployes, and payroll of $10,150,146, the top year for lumber: 1956, 353 reporting units. 8.298 employes, and pavroll of $9,799,727: for 1957, 401 ; reporting units, 7.406 employes and ! $8,434,386 payroll: for 1958. 326 j units. 6.343 employes, and $7,131, I 778 payroll.

The new building will be Lumber Market Showing Signs Of Strength Slightly better demand from some parts of the country signaled a stronger tone to the green iir market this week, according to Crow's Lumber Market News Service of Portland. Volume placements for inventory were made by some users of green fir, dry fir and dry hemlock di- menions, mostly into the Midwest and East. Traditionally, these heavy placements mark the low point ot the year in prices. While this type of buying was not as heavy as in previous years, there was sufficient volume placed to siaouize tne slipping price struc ture, according to Crow's, Buying has been slow in California and the Southwest, with no change from a week ago in these areas. Douglas fir plywood sheathing prices remained somewhat con fused at week's end, Crow's report ed, due to a S4 price increase an nounced on Monday by one of the leading shippers. Not all mills have been able to sell at the advanced figure, although most reported an improvement over the S88 figure of last week. Sanded mills have booked enough business at the S64 level to build sizable order files, and prices appear stronger in this market. Pine region prices were mostly unchanged, Crowls reported, al though slow trading in low grade prices. Umpqua Indian Room, Lounge Remodeling Set Remodeling of the Indian Room and Lounge of the Umpqua Hotel will be started Monday, announces Dick Smith, assistant manager. This is the latest phase in work which will culminate in an almost completely rebuilt hotel since the AUB. 1 hlflSt SnmP nf tho invr t,H been contemplated previously. A new banquet room to seat 40 to 50 persons will be put in to the rear of the Indian Room. Light ing will be changed and wood pan elling added for decorative eftect.

Iverson's Feed Store Adding New Feeding Lot An area near Iverson's Feed Store on Highway 99S is being cleared for location of a feeding lot and shed for animals. A con crete slab floor will be laid for the shed and part of the lot. Turkey Shoot SUNDAY NOV. 22 11:00 A.M. Camas Valley Grange -ALL GUNS- erected on the former Roseburg City Hall site. Acquisition of this property, said Schmeer, will make possible en trances or exits off three streets: Main, Oak and Kane. It will be an aid to drive-up banking. Meanwhile, plans for the new bank building are still pending. Schmeer said that, while the final drafts are not completed, the bank design probably wiU be sim ilar to that of branch banks built in other Oregon cities recently. Tidewater Oil Co. Now Constructing New Super Station Tidewater Oil Co. is starting con struction of a new service station at the Sutherlin junction of High way 99 Freeway where it crosses W. Central Ave. C. W. McDermott, local distri butor for Tidewater, said the sta tion will be of the latest design, canopy-time, costing around $50, 000. It will be located north of Cen tral between the new highway and a recently completed new Union service station and the Four Winds Bowl. He said plans are to completa the station in about 60 days. Grounds are now being cleared for construction. This makes the third Tidewater service station under construction in Central Douglas County. One under construction at Can yonville being built by the com pany will be completed in about 30 days. The grounds have already been blacktopped, but some finish ing work remains. McDermott is building a station of his own, which he will lease to Tidewater, just south of Win chester. He said this station will be completed about Dec. 10. All three are the latest-type stations which the company has designed. Two Local Kennels Are Listed In New Directory Glengary Beagle Kennels, Rt. 1, and Jacobs Kennels. 1265 NE Steph ens St., both of Roseburg, have been advised of their listing in a national directory that has just made its appearance.
