Just get to know them--we think that you will agree with us when we say that they, as a group, are as fine a people as you will find anywhere in the entire country. We aren't going to close this without making a pitch for our selves. We have invested a great deal of money in a new type of process that has brought us national recognition. We are at once pioneers and leaders in this method of newspaper production. At the same time we don't want to lose sight of our prim ary goal in the newspaper field, and that is to attempt to bring to you the best veeklv paper that we can. We think that we have made definite jrogress in the last few months, and we think further that we will eventually produce for you one of Oregon's leading weekly news papers. Now that most of our mechanical difficulties have been ?onquered we can devote more of our time to gathering news of the area, and taking pictures of you and your friends. We want vou to "Get Acquainted" with your newspaper, the Pilot. WE EXTEND OUR SYMPATHY:........................................ Curry County was shocked this week to learn of the death of Dave Shaw, who had quite an influence in the county during h is recent years of residence here. He was a director of the Coos- Curry Co-op, and twice ran for congress from the fourth district of Oregon. He was a good Democrat, and a sm art attorney, and a "swell guy" He was one of the most sincere, and convincing speakers we have ever listened to, and we want to extend o u r sympathy to his wife Wickes at this time. He will be missed. ****************** (¿KEIPHBOOK We're still unhappy with Crescent City, and its Chamber of Commerce for sending the tourists over to Grants Pass, and up highway 99, because it is a "faster" route. We were given a tip from our secret agents who sit ontop of Oregon Mountain. They claim that there are 326 curves in the 39 mile stretch from th e highway 101 cut-off to the bug station entering Oregon. That i s not a great deal less than the curves from Brookings to G old Beach—and those curves are equally wicked. # # # ##########♦ ###♦♦ #♦♦ # Now four cities in the valley, nilnois Valley, Grants pass, Myrtle Creek, and Roseburg have put up a huge sign in Crescent City, urging motorists to travel up 99 to Portland. It's competi tion, thats what it is. The tourist must be thinking that he is a pretty important guy—and he is that. However, as long an t h i a country has the old Pacific ocean we don't have to worry to much about luring the visitor. ♦if#########»#*#********* Got a report from Forest Ranger Rags Ragland on his recent expedition to the Big Craggies. He said that he saw some really big bucks back in that country. Not much danger of anyone going in to hunt them though. Imagine taking three days to drag th e inimal out once they were shot. Rags also reported seeing a jear. The Craggies have been set aside as a primitive a r e a , and it really is one. # # # # # # #####*♦ ##*#***♦** This should be quite a fine week, what with the Grand Open ing of Unigas, and the Coos Curry Co-op's new building, p lu s the first football game of the season. For real excitement, how ever, we'll take the color combination at the new Coop building. We doubt whether Betty Guthrie will ever be able to sleep at the job in that office.

If an oral bid is declared to be high at the closing of tht auction, the bidder must immed iately confirm the oral bid by submitting it in writing on a Forest Service bid form. The right to reject any and all bids is reserved.

SOCIAL SECURITY AGENT TO VISIT ON SEPTEMBER 17 Carlos L. Hunsinger, man ager of the Eureka district office of the Social Security Administra tion, announced today that a rep resentative of that otlice will maintain o f f ic e hours at the Brookings City Hall September 17, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Individuals wishing information about the Federal old-age and survivors insurance program may contact the representative at that time.
