BRIEF HISTORY OF A CELEBRATED AMERICAN ART. Teco pottery is the most serious contribution that America has yet made to the eternal art of the world. "It is the clearest note yet sound ed by this commercial hemisphere in the symphony of universal beauty. "It is the most vigorous, and will prove to be one of the most reverb erating, of the syllables in which Amorica has sought to give utterance to her Immature national aesthetic ism. "Teco is really the harmonic and intelligible voice of America at her best a divine melody of curve and color. "We are privileged among many generations; we have been nt the birth of a new and everlasting classic." TKCO POTTER V. Teco pottery it not, rightly speak ing, a commercial product. It Is an artistic realization. It is not a symbol of the money- hunger of a manufacturer, a mer chant or an explorer. It is the life of man. It is an ideal, formulated and rendered tangible. Materially it is ! made of clays rare and delicate in their chemistry; spiritually, If the word may be so used, Teco is made of the dreams, the scholarship, the patience and the vital art Impulse of William Day Gates. Painter, designer, raconteur, stu dent he became also chemist and modeler in clay, for In a recovery of the ancient mastery of ceramics he saw a horizon of artistic achievement wider in possibilities, more inclusive of art forms, and withal more useful and therefore more surely education al of mankind than any single chan nel of artiiitic effort could hope to become. He believed that art should not merely amuse, but should serve, and that it should exalt whoso it served. After over twenty years of devout experimentation the classic art-in stinct of his fingers found its worthy and perfect medium, and Teco came into being. Its art is pure, cleanly, genuine; the rapidly widening esteem or per haps affection in which it is held, Is at once a testimony of its deserts from the best of American life, and of the extension of true culture in that life. Simplicity and sincerity and truth and the history of service in art are no longer as a cry in a wilderness. THE MAKING OF POTTERY Is not speaking generally alluring to the ingrained profit-seeker; there is nothing resembling profit in the evolution and production of a ware . like Teco, receives, immedi ately upon being perfected, a world wide homago from lovers of that beauty which Is true enough to be permanent. Its creators never will recover compensation, in money, for the time, the love, the zeal and the money invested in it. But they con ceive It to be a larger matter than simply "selling vases." Thoy feel that they have in their 'hands n means of bettering the life of man kind by bettering his standards of beauty in the home. This they might make profitable by exacting prices which would restrict the purchase of Teco; or they might havo recourse to an inferior ware for in cheap pottery thero is profit. But they will do neither. Teco Is sold at prices calculated to sustain the business; the dividends are in the satisfaction of doing something that Is worth while. THE TECO DESIGNS. A signal fact is that the several artists whoso creative geniuus has mado Teco so famous for purity of line are not dependent artisans, nor are they employed designers working for ever so high a wage. A glance at the names identified with the var ious pieces roveals many whose talent Is not for hire In such a connection, and by no moans all of their work is shown horein. The Teco designs number about four hundred and new contours nre being added almost constantly.. The great things in art are never done for money. Creative , genius cannot be driven nor yet be bridled. i Pegasus does not soar well on a ! treadmill. I Many of the masterly conceptions ' In Teco have slipped from some cele , brated pencil almost by accident, it seemed to have been lortnwitn reno ered Into clay that aprang instantly into perfect form, aa though Itself inspired. . Other haYo been derived trovk friendly competitions among wellr known artisU. Every pleee beam Ha designer's name, to attest its individual charac ter.

May or Straw recently enjoyed an Epicur ean feast of green corn fresh from the well cultivated fields of Robert Rook on Coos river. That Is just a little better record than the Eugeno man who boasted of having roasting ears on Thanksgiving day.

Excellent Road Finished. .Work on the Tenth street plank road, which which connects Front street with tho northern part of the city, has been completed and the means for trafflc In that section of the city are better than they have ever been before. A broad plank road has been construct ed on trestles, with a strong railing, and the approach to North Marshileld has been excavated and levelled out. Formerly the old pathway was used which is now covered up by the high tides, and the addition to tho Im provements in that section is a great boon for the citizens. Sent to Asjlinn. Frank Kelly, formerly of Marshfleld, where he was engaged as a painter and as sistant at a number of the hotels, was arrested a few days ago In Rose burg charged with the theft of sev eral phials of morphine. Ho was found to be crazed from the effect of tho drug and was taken to-tho asy lum at Salem for treatment. Local men who knew him when hero de clare that he was not a victim of tho habit, and that he must have acquir ed it after he left the city. It 13 re ported that he was treated for paint ers' colic with morphine as the rem edy, and in this manner he became a fiend for the deadly drug. Council Meets- Tonight There will bo a meeting of the city council tonight to pass on a number of bills which have ben held over during tho enforced holidays and to consider specifications of projected street work. A number of other matters will be brought up at the meeting which will be held at S o'clock in the council chamber above the firo department In the city hall. Tho councllmen are anxious that all who wish may attend tho meeting. Want Better Mail s"eiice A. H. Derbyshire, member of tho North Bend Chamber of Commerco and-one-, of n committee to make efforts, to se cure a better mail servlco, visited i Secretary Lyon at tho local chamber of commerce to get a copy of the res olutions recently passed for a better service between hero and Roseburg. Mr. Lyons has sent a copy of tho resolutions to tho Oregon delegation and the assistant postmaster goueral at Washington. Mr. Derbyshire said that tho North Bend organization would pass tho resolutions at a spec ial meeting and also send tho reso lutions to Washington. FIRST STATEMENT.
