Area Is Suffering “Growing Pains W
It is d«xibtful if there is a single Pilot reader who hasn't heard
of "growing pains’’—that which dad said was wrong if any pain
appeared during adolescent days.
This area certainly has such pains, if such there be. Busily do-
ing things the area suffers from the work done by others in no un-
certain way Such may be said of the yards and yards of d irt being
moved from a future site of a building to a spot once a m arsh.
The community suffers from mud on the streets, one of those
pair.* incident to p ro g re " Most every reader has been to some
city or another where a street was partially blocked by a high
hoaM fence, preventing use of a sidewalk, perhaps a whole block,
where a new' building is being erected. That is a growing pain (to
the public) for inconvenience is caused thereby.
Visionary people see in the area a thickly-settled spot of this
section of Oregon With possibilities here for a population of 20,000
or more people, it is certain that many growing pains are quite
likely to be felt before relief is in sight.
They’re Working For Everyone
There is, in the area, an unselfish group of men who m eet when
occasions <lemand, to plan for the future of the area. Unsung, and
quite often censured for their work, these men poo, th eir visions
for a better area, and w ork—constantly—toward civic improvement.
These men the hoard of directors and comm ittee chairm an of
the Brookings-Harbor Chamber of Commerce—their reason for all
this work—to butld a better rommunity.
With the Azalea Festival coming May 25, with hundreds of
issues at stake, vital to the well-being of the community, m any hold
meetings as often as twice-«-week.
Ic many a casual observer, the question arises: "W hat are
they expecting from this w ork?" Actually.’ if their time were only
worth Ilk an hourt then each individual would be loser. True, these
m^n hope that by their work, their businesses may prosper, but
not to any greater extent than they want others to prosper. Since
no chain is stronger than its weakest link, no community can ever
hope to prosper more than the average of the community.

This is the actual beginning
of the expansion program and
it will progress just as rapidly
as availability of materials per

It is now directly up to the in
dividual property owners to
sign their easements and return
them to this office.
Approximately 150 easement
blanks are in the hands of prop

turned in. lhe Coos Electric Co
operative has sent Earl Saun
ders to Brookings - Harbor to
stake out the power line right-
of-way. and he will only stake
out lines where the necessary
easements have been signed.
It is our hope that easements
and materials keep coming, so
we will not he forced to stop un
