AZALEAS ARE POPPING -
The recent warm weather and
warm rains have brought out
the wild azaleas. The hills, back
of town, are becoming pocked
with huge blobs of reds and pink
and whites, which will soon be
followed by the heavenly blue
eeanothus, popularly called the
“wild lilacs.” For those of you
not acquainted with one of the
prime Oregon natural beauties,

By a vote of 80 to 39, residents
of district 54C, Bandon, voted to
increase their levy by $180,145.00
above the six percent limitation
in order to carry out the budget
amounting to $426,324.50. It is
expected the increase will bring
the millage up slightly from its
current 79, possibly alleviated by
ineneased assessments in the dis
trict.
