EKOOKINGS-H ARBOR PILOT, BROOKINGS, OREGON
Treasury Man Visited
‘Relatives In Vicinity
John W. Braun of Washington,
D. C., has been spending several
rrays visiting his mother, Mrs.
John Hogan, and his daughter,
Miss Patricia. Braun. Mr. Braun
is with the U. S. Treasury de
partment, bureau of the mint.
His duties brough him to San
Francisco and Los AngJ.es, so
he took a few days leave to visit
his relatives in Brookings. He
was last here in March, 1945, just
after his return from Italy and
Algiers. At that time it was rain
ing. During this visit he liked
the climate of the area very
much.

Giving away Il y blossoms
has been profitable to the lily
industry, George Fun k has
learned from Greyhound bus
drivers, who told him quite
a story.
Wednesday morning, in his
interview with the Pilot, Mr.
Funk told about returning to
Brookings by bus Sunday. He
gave his bus ticket to the
driver at Portland terminal,
and when the driver noted the
destination he remarked:
“Brooking! Isn't that the
place they give away all the
lily blossoms f You should
hear the remarks we do of
travelers who came through
there. They rave about the
courtesy, and of the blos
soms, many having never had
one in their hands before."
Mr. Funk told the Pilot he
often wondered j u s t how
much good the giving away
of blossom really did—he has
no doubts in his mind now.
“We made our mistake by
not conducting the booths as
long as lily blossoms were to
be had. Next year 1 hope we
can keep them open at least
three weeks if there are any
blooms left."
